Chapter 5
Charlie, Casey, Brax, Alexis, Luke and Emily were all sitting around in the lounge room watching tv, when Charlie got up and called Brax into the kitchen with her.
Brax: What's up babe?
Charlie: I need to tell you something… Not sure how you're going to take this news.
Brax: What is it…
Charlie: Well you kind of got me knocked up again.
Brax just shook his head, and stated now I know what Rubes was yelling about on the beach don't I, Charlie simply responded with a yes, and by the way I'm already three months before heading back to the lounge room to join the rest. Brax just stood in the kitchen for another five minutes staring into space before grabbing a beer for him and Case and joined the rest in the lounge room.
Brax: Kiddos… Guess what?
Lucas & Alexis: What dad?
Brax: You're mother got knocked up.
Lucas: Another sibling? Please please no more.
Alexis: What's knocked up?
Casey: Your mother is pregnant with another child.
Alexis: MUM! You said Emily was the last. I don't want another sister or brother. I'm going to hate it.
Brax: Alexis – Don't speak like that. If you are going to carry on you can go to your room for the rest of the weekend.
Alexis: I'm just saying the truth, you always tell me not to lie.
Brax: Alexis. Final warning. Apologise to your mother.
Alexis: No. This is so unfair.
Brax: Bedroom now. I don't want to see you till your mother or I come and let you back out.
Casey: Brax if you are finished yelling, I just wanted to say congratulations, but you two really need stop popping out the kids after this one.
Charlie: Why don't want any more nieces or nephews or worried that Rubes will want that many kids?
Casey: Both.
Charlie and Brax started laughing at that. I'm glad we have everyone's support Charlie stated.
-Over at April's House-
At last there was a knock on the door, and Ruby got up to answer and April stated whoever it is tell them to go away. I don't want to speak to anyone today. Ruby just rolled her eyes and kept walking to the door and greeted Heath.
Ruby: Shh be quite please. April doesn't know you're here, come in and follow me.
Heath just followed Ruby into April's bedroom, he remembered the walk through this house that night when he was really drunk with April.
April: What is he doing here?
Ruby: You two need to talk. I'm going to be here, but it has to be done. No one is allowed to yell or scream at each other.
April: ok then. Heath, I need to tell you something.
Heath: And?
April: You know that night about seven weeks ago?
Heath: Yes and?
April: I'm pregnant.
Heath just stood there shock, he had no idea what to say. He had no idea what he was going to do. Darcy ran through his mind, not that he got to see her often because her grandma was against it.
April: Heath?
Heath: Ruby, can you please leave the room, I need to talk to April.
Ruby: Ok, I'll be in the lounge room. Let me know how it goes April.
Once Ruby was out of the room, Heath still just stood there looking at April, he knew this was a mistake, he knew he should have been more careful, but he actually liked this girl.
Heath: April… I'm glad the other week happen, and the nights since then but I have no idea what to do about this situation.
April: I'm keeping the baby, if that's what you're asking?
Heath: Ok then, well I will support you and the baby and anything you and the baby need just ask me.
April: Thanks Heath, I want you to be apart of your baby's life, I just don't know what to tell Bianca.
Heath: April, I like you. I do but when you went all strange on me the other week I thought you were backing off because you were scared what people would think. I never realised that this was a possibility.
April: Can you be here when I call Bianca for me?
Heath: Of course I can.
Heath moved closer to April and leaned in and kissed her.
April: I think we should tell Ruby it is safe for her to leave now.
Heath: Better yet, why don't we take the pregnant woman home, and tell my family while we are there?
April: Are you sure?
Heath: They have to find out at some stage, and it's better than Ruby accidentally slipping up about it.
April just nodded as they headed out to the lounge together holding hands and told Ruby about everything that had just been said. Ruby still didn't 100% agree with what was going on, but she understood that they both liked each other.
Ruby: You know Charlie & Brax might not take this to well Heath and you are living in their house.
April: If they have that big of a problem, Heath can come stay here. I live on my own in this massive empty house.
Heath: Thanks April.
With that they all headed out the door and got into April's car and headed around to the Braxton household.
