I lay awake next to Wade. It was morning and I hadn't slept at all. While I knew Wade hadn't slept at all either, his arm still tightened around me as his alarm clock sounded. I turned to face him, where he had his eyes closed. He slowly opened them and turned the alarm off. I knew he was obviously pretending to have slept. He smiled as I placed my head on his chest. He kissed my forehead and wrapped his arms around me, "Everything will be alright and you shouldn't be worrying. You should be happy that you're going to be a mother, a great mother."

"I'm scared, I feel like if this baby is John's, then that's all you're going to see, he and I. You'll lose sight of how much I am in love with you. I feel like if this baby isn't yours then you won't want to be with me."

"Why would you think that? I love you and this baby, whether I am the father or not."

I sat up and stared at his face, my fingers grazed his stubbled jaw, "Promise me, you won't leave me."

He kissed my lips, "I promise, till my last breath I will never leave you."

I hugged him tightly, kissing his cheek. He stood up to get ready for work, "Are you sure you don't want me to come?"

"No, I just want to go alone. You have a good day at work" I said smiling at him.

He placed his hand on my cheek, as he stole another kiss, "Alright, but if you need me call me and I'll be straight there."

I smiled, "I'll be alright now, knowing that you'll never leave me."

"I meant it."

...

The wait outside of the Doctor's office felt like an eternity. I kept tapping my foot and I was left with all of these thoughts in my head. I did feel a little better after hearing what Wade had said. That made me more in love with him; he just always wanted the best for me. I was very happy with him, sad to admit much happier then I was with John. While he did love and care for me, he had this jealous side to him that always seemed to latch out. Something I grew tired of and I guess that's why I allowed myself to be kissed by Randy that day before our wedding. But because of the way Randy is, I didn't want to be with someone who would be so manipulative and trouble making, my love for him began to dissapear. I couldn't believe that he had told John about what we had done, causing John to call off our wedding. But could you blame him, I was unfaithful to him and he deserved much better. I knew Alex would be great for him; she was a very caring and loving individual who would give John the love he needed. But what if John and I had gotten married, would I have been happy or would I have been thinking about Wade and what could have been. Would John and I be celebrating the birth of this child together as a married couple? Everyone would have been so happy for us, especially my Dad. I hadn't told my Dad about the pregnancy, I was waiting to at least be sure about the father before I told him that his unmarried daughter was going to birth him a grandchild. I did want to be married before I had the baby, but I didn't know if Wade was thinking of that at all. We had been together only a few months, so it was early. But I hoped that maybe if this child was his that he would want to get married, if he wanted.

My head had gone crazy with thoughts, I then felt someone sit next to me and put their arms around my shoulders. "John? What are you doing here?"

He smiled, his dimples coming out of his cheeks. "The Doctor called me yesterday about the results, where's Barrett?"

"He's at work."

John shook his head, "Too busy to make it, I see."

I rolled my eyes, "He wanted to come but I told him not to. I actually wanted to be here alone."

"I can leave then, Lea. I'm sorry" said John.

I sighed at him, "No... You can stay, you have as much right to be here as me."

"I actually wanted to talk to you Lea, about the baby" he said placing his hand on my knee, "I just want you to know, that if this baby is mine. I promise to take care of it and be there for both of you. I want to be there for everything, I want to be the man you can depend on, but in saying that I'm not going to try and interfere between you and Wade. You two are clearly in a happy relationship and I don't want to cause friction between you two. Plus I have begun dating Alex."

"Thank you John, that means a lot" I said, "If this baby is yours, then I do want him or her to know their amazing father and I do want you to be in their life, I want this child to know that we were once in love but now are good friends."

John nodded, "To be honest, at first I was a little surprised that I might have caused you to get pregnant. I felt a little weird to return in your life again, but this time I feel a little happier because I feel like as friends we're right for each other and I feel honoured to have a child with you."

I smiled and kissed his cheek, "I think we make great friends."

The nurse walked toward me and the two of us looked up at her, "The Doctor is ready for you."

My heart suddenly jolted, John held my hand and smiled. This reassured me that everything was going to be alright. Either way, this child was going to have a great father, whether it was John or Wade and for the first time since knowing that I was pregnant I was happy, because I wasn't worried about who the father was and what was going to happen to me, but because I felt the realisation that I was having a baby and I was going to be the most loving, nurturing, kind mother in the world, I wasn't worried about the father but I knew that this child had me and that was going to be enough anyway. I placed my hands on my stomach, "Alright little one, time to find out who your father is."

John put him arms around my shoulder and we walked into the room together, he pulled out the chair for me to sit on. While he sat next to me he whispered, "Everything is going to be fine, Lea."

I nodded, smiling at him. "Ready to be a Dad? Or ready not to be?"

"A little anxious, but can I ask you something before the Doctor comes in?"

"Yeah of course" I said, listening intently to him.

"If this baby is Wade's, I hope I can still be a part of its life? Because you were a huge part of my life and this happening was a big part, so I still feel even if this baby isn't mine, I feel a little connected to it" he said.

"Of course" I said, "I know you will definitely be a part of its life."

He smiled, "But this could also be my child and I want you to let Wade know that he most surely can be a part of this child's life, I know he will take of him or her when I'm not there."

"He will" I said.

John turned around and glanced at the door, then looked back at me in a look of confusion.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Didn't you have an older looking woman with red hair as your doctor?"

"Yeah?"

"Well either I'm drunk, or she just turned a whole lot younger and blonde?" he said turning around.

I followed his gaze to this petite, beautiful young woman who was writing something on a file on a side desk. She closed the door and walked toward the desk, her green eyes now gazed at me. She showed a kind smile before she spoke, "Hello Lea, Doctor Herren is actually away permanently, her husband got a new job and she was moved to another area."

"Oh, that's too bad" I said.

She nodded, "I'm Doctor Neidhart, but you can call me Natalya or Nattie if you like."

"Hi Nattie" said John winking at her.

I shook my head at John, but she didn't seem to notice him. She got out my file and my heart began pounding.

"So I have the results for the paternity test" she said as she opened the envelope, "Your file reads that your were engaged to a man then you two broke off the wedding and now you are with someone else and the man you were engaged to, is the one being tested. So that means if the test is negative then it is your boyfriend's child but if it is positive then he is the father. Is this your boyfriend?"

"Oh no, but he is the one who got tested" I said, "He's my ex boyfriend."

"Ex fiancé, you mean we were engaged" added John.

I rolled my eyes, "You see why we're not together."

Natalya chuckled, "Well I guess we should get on with results."

I nodded, as John grabbed my hand again.

"The results say that the paternity of this baby... is that it's not John's baby" she said.

I felt frozen, I was carrying Wade's baby! This was mine and Wade's child! I just felt so much emotion that I fell still. "It's not John's?" I said still dazed.

She smiled, "The test is negative. This baby isn't John's."

I grinned as I touched my stomach, "This is Wade's baby, Wow... I don't know what to say. I've never felt so happy."

I glanced at John, who was still holding my hand. He looked a little defeated, but smiled at me as he kissed my cheek, "You and Wade are going to make great parents to this very fortunate child, especially to have you as it's mother. You're going to make the greatest Mum."

I hugged him, "You will make a great Dad someday John, but you will make an even better uncle."

He nodded, "Well... you should let Wade know. He must have been waiting eagerly to know what the result is. You can tell him that he's a Dad!"

"You can let Alex know, that she doesn't have to be a step mother" I joked.

"She'll be thrilled" he said as he hugged me again and left.

I sighed, relaxing for a bit.

"It has been hard, I can see" said Natalya.

"You have no idea" I said, "It's been very stressful."

"I can tell that you're very happy with the result and I don't want you stressing anymore, you have to be happy and healthy for this baby" she said.

"Thank you, thank you for everything and I hope you like it here" I said standing up.

"It's much different from Canada, but it's a lot better than I thought" she said, "Seeing you and your ex together, just really made realise how life goes on. My ex boyfriend was just horrible, that's why I moved here. But seeing you two get along so well, just makes me feel a lot better."

"It wasn't easy at first, but we make better friends than partners" I said, "We both finally got that."

"Well, go on and enjoy yourself, tell your boyfriend that he is indeed a Dad and call me if you need anything" she said handing me a card.

"Thank you so much for everything. It was really nice to meet you and I'll speak to you soon" I said leaving.

"Bye Lea" she said.
