Well hello! I'm updating a little sooner than anticipated! I should be doing homework for this week but nothing is due tomorrow so I'm procrastinating and writing for you guys instead! Such a good student. Anyway, thank you so much for all the reviews, I really appreciate them. This is going to be the LAST chapter before Julia tells Darren, so this is the last stretch to the finish line. I've been thinking about how I want Julia to tell him for awhile, and I'm so excited to share it with you. Without any further ado, here is the last chapter from Darren's POV.

October 21, 2021

Joey rubbed the back of his neck and gave Darren a puzzled look. He saw how broken his friend looked as he recalled the events of his relationship with Julia. After a few moments of silence Darren finally spoke again. "Did I ever tell you about the time we thought Julia was pregnant?"

November 18, 2007

Darren was curled up in his twin sized bed dreaming about the time he spent with his girlfriend. She was beautiful, funny, and AMAZING in bed. The two of them "fucked like rabbits" as Dylan Saunders put it. Whenever he would say that Darren would smirk, but never deny it because it was true. Darren was a very horny teenager.

He never forced sex upon her, he was never that kind of guy. When she said no, he would oblige never pushing her to go any further than she wanted to. After awhile though he realized that condoms were fucking expensive, and his few gigs couldn't really pay for all the condoms he was going though. He could have always gone to the health center but he thought they'd judge him if he kept pocketing handfuls of the colored squares. Eventually, Darren stopped using condoms when he had sex with Julia, he figured the "pull out" method was good enough and he was 99.9% sure she was on the pill. I mean aren't all sexually active girls on the pill? He had been keeping this up for months without Julia knowing, she always assumed he used a condom and it was going swimmingly for him until that day.

Darren woke up to his phone ringing. "H-hello?" he answered still asleep.

"Hey Dare." It was Julia on the other line.

"What's up babe?" Darren asked as he slowly got up and rested his body weight on his elbow.

"Do you think you can come upstairs? I want to talk to you about something…" As tired as Darren was he could tell there was something wrong by the tone of Julia's voice.

"Jules…is everything okay?" Darren got up out of his bed and looked around his room for his shoes and a t-shirt.

"It will be Dare…just please come upstairs…" she sounded like she was going to cry, Darren hated it when Julia cried.

"I'm on my way up. Give me two seconds." He replied as he finished tying his shoes.

"Okay…I love you…"

"I love you too." Darren hung up the phone and ran up the three flights of stairs to Julia and Lauren's apartment.

Darren started to bang on the door when he got there. Julia couldn't open it up fast enough.

"What's going on…" Darren asked with his head cocked staring at his girlfriend as she opened the door.

"Can you please sit down Dare…" Darren took a step towards his girlfriend and she quickly backed away. Backing away was unlike her.

"What's going on Julia?! You're scaring me." He was running his hands through his mop of curls as he watched his girlfriend pull on her shirt. He felt like he was going to break down into tears, and Darren never cried.

"I need you to sit…" She said avoiding eye contact with a now pacing Darren.

"Julia! Just please tell me what's going on!"

"D-Darren…I'm so sorry…" Julia covered her face as the tears fell from her eyes.

"A-are you breaking up with me…what did I do…why are you doing this…" Darren didn't know what he would do if Julia left her, the more time he spent with her the more he knew she was the one, the one he would marry and one day have a family with.

She shook her head as her body shook with each tear. He wrapped his arms around her as she fell to the floor he held her close waiting for her to say something, anything. He didn't know what else to do, all he knew was that he needed her in his arms, and she needed to be in them.

"I'm two weeks late." She finally mumbled into her boyfriends shoulder.

Darren had to think for a moment. "Y-you mean…you might be…" Darren's heart stopped. The "pull out" method clearly wasn't as fool proof as he thought. His cheap self got his 20 year old girlfriend pregnant.

She shook her head, as her breathing grew deep. She struggled with each breath unable to talk.

"Have you taken a test?" He wasn't sure what so say, this seemed the most logical.

She shook her head.

"We'll get one. And we'll get through this together. I know we will…we have to…" Darren held his girlfriend close in fear of what the little white stick would say.

Julia took the box to the bathroom and left Darren in the living room. He sat there in silence awaiting their fate. He didn't want to make a big deal about the situation at hand, he knew he couldn't, so he decided to sit there and wait for her to come back. She walked out of the bathroom and sat next to Darren. "We have to wait three minutes." She whispered looking down at her hands. He wanted nothing more but to hold her hands. He noticed they were shaking.

Darren took her shaking hands in his and kissed her knuckles gently. "Whatever this pee stick says, I'll be here for you 100% because I love you, Julia Marie Albain. And I'll never stop." He knew it now, that she was actually the one.

A tear fell down her cheek as she nodded. "And I'll never stop loving you, Darren Everett Criss. And that's a promise."

Three minutes had passed and Julia looked down at the window, a small pink minus sign was staring at her. She released a sigh of relief. "It's negative." She said looking at her boyfriend.

Darren smiled and nodded. He just hoped that one day he would actually father her children.

October 21, 2021

Joey looked at Darren a little confused. "Why are you telling me this now? I mean the stick said she wasn't pregnant. It's not like you're fathering her children. I don't understand why this story is relevant. I already know you love her. This story just seems, useless." Joey shrugged.

Darren licked his lips and sat himself on the edge of the couch. "Let's just run through a few facts okay?"

Joey nodded. "Okay."

'Your wedding was July 18, 2016 right?" Darren asked

"Yeah but I don't get your—"

Darren put his hand up before Joey could finish. "I later found out that Julia was the one who came over to my apartment the day Mia was there. That day was exactly a month after we had sex. The night of your wedding I didn't use a condom. Well granted I was too fucked up to remember to use one. Anyway, three days later Julia announced she was pregnant through artificial insemination. To everyone it seemed logic, because everyone didn't know the two of us fucked the month previous."

Joey wasn't following; it was obvious in the way his eyebrows furrowed into one. "Where are you going with this Darren?" he asked.

Darren took a deep breath and blurted out his theory. "I think I'm Matthew's father."

YAAAYYY! Another chapter! Again the next one will be when Julia tells Darren. HORRAYYY! Anyway, I hope you like the ending of this one. I'm really happy with it. Please continue to review; I love them as much as I love you guys! Thanks for reading! Until next time! :*
