AN:

Hey!

it has been an awful long time since I last updated on this story. And to those of you who have been following it up, I have to say I'm sorry about that. But here's a new little treat for you.

Hope some of you are still reading this, and if you are I'll come around again and write it to the very end!

Enjoy!

It had been a few days since Duncan had been back home at the apartment. He thought about not going also, but hello, it's his home. He can't ignore that fact, and he can't ignore them either. He would just have to tell them.

''Guys, I'm back.'' He yelled at them, as he came barging through the door waiting for them to appear.

Then all of a sudden Owen came in with no clothes on, then stumbling on a soda can which made him fall and hit the ground with a loud bang, smashing his manhood.

''Hey, man! Cover up!'' Duncan told him, covering his eyes with his hand.

''Sorry, It's not my fault I've got a smoking hot babe in my room, that want's me to be naked all the time.'' Owen told him, still lying on the floor.

''Dude, that's awesome.'' He high-fived him, letting him know.

''Duncan, where have you been man? It's been like two days.'' Trent said, walking towards him giving him a bro hug sitting down on the couch.

''Well, as you all know I banged this hot chick a long time ago..'' Duncan told them, sitting down in a chair near by.

''And.. You banged her again?'' Trent hopefully said.

''That's not the deal here.'' He groaned and hit his head with his hand lightly. ''She's actually pregnant.''

There was silence.

They looked at him with wide eyes.

DJ was the first one to finally talk. ''Is this a joke?''

''Yeah DJ, totally. Because why not? Telling you I knocked up a girl, no big deal.'' He sarcastically said, rolling his eyes at them all.

''You are fucked, dude.'' It was now Harold's voice that came across the room.

Duncan put his face in his hands and groaned again. ''I am.''

''Well, now that we know that let's get back to work.'' Owen took the remote and pressed the play button to the television, getting his note pad out.

''That's it?'' Duncan raised an eyebrow at them.

''What else do you want from us?'' Owen didn't look up from his note pad.

''Nevermind.'' He shook his head and walked out the door he just entered a few moments ago.

Friends? As if they were his friends not supporting him. Not even with words. Oh well, their loss.

He returned to his car and sat down in the drivers seat checking his phone.

No messages. No calls.

He sighed and started the engine, driving off. ''Maybe I could drive to Courtney, wait no. That would be stupid. Wouldn't it? No, I'm driving there. Better make this a left turn if I want to get there. Not straight ahead. Left, left, left.'' He had a fight with himself inside his head. ''This is stupid, of course she would be glad to see me. The guy that knocked her up and doesn't care. Great.'' He focused on the road and as he was about to turn left he went straight. ''Damn, I missed it. Why can't I get myself to drive there. I'm never like this. I avoid situations like this.''

After half an hour of talking to himself, he finally drove the right way over to where she was staying. Her friends house. Man, this was a huge house.

He parked the car in the drive way and stepped outside, locking his car. His footsteps were slow as he walked towards the door, suddenly someone came outside.

''Duncan? What are you doing here?'' It was Geoff, his old friend.

''Gah- Hey.'' He got startled as he came out. ''Just.. Visiting Courtney I guess.''

''Oh, she's been an emotional mess since you last saw her. What did you do?'' He had a trash bag with him which he threw away in a dumpster a few feet from the house.

''Bridgette didn't tell you?'' He leaned against the door frame.

''No, what's up?'' Geoff came back up and looked at him.

''Well, it's kind of funny story.'' He laughed, but stopped as he noticed Geoff's serious face. ''Okay.. Not that funny. Remember that night we went out with the girls? Courtney and I apparently went home together..''

''And..? You blew her off?'' He asked, not really sure of the situation.

''No..'' He trailed off. ''I actually got her pregnant.''

Silence.

''Wow.. So, that's why she's been so-'' He stopped. ''Congratulations I guess.''

''Thanks.. Man.'' He returned, just as awkwardly.

He walked inside, wanting to avoid the situation with Geoff following behind. In the living room Bridgette and Courtney were sitting in the sofa watching TV together. But as she saw him she shot straight up from her seat.

''Duncan?''

''Hey-'' He scratched the back of his head. ''I wondered if you. Would. Like to have dinner with me?''

She looked back at Bridgette who smiled at her in return. Then she looked back at Duncan with a raised eyebrow before saying. ''Sure.. Let me get dressed first.''

He walked over to the other sofa across from the other, sitting down.

''Finally you're back.'' Bridgette said. ''Maybe you could make this work.''

''And you think I'm not capable of doing so?'' His gaze meet hers.

''I didn't say that I just-'' She looked away before resting her hands on her thighs and turning back to him. ''I'm worried you can't commit one hundred percent.''

''Don't worry Bridgette, he can if he wants to. Right Duncan? I know this fellow.'' He sat down besides her and draped an arm around her shoulder.

''Yeah.. Time will show right?'' He laughed nervously.

''I'm ready.'' Courtney walked in. She was dressed in jeans and a white patterned top. ''See you later.'' She smiled at the couple sitting in the sofa.

Duncan got up and walked beside her as they exited the house.

''You look nice.'' He told her as they walked to the car.

''So do you.'' She looked at him and then sat down into the passenger seat. ''I'm pretty sure I'll blow out soon though.. These clothes won't hold for long.'' She sighed.

''Don't worry, it will be fine.'' His hand reached for hers, and as she looked at him he quickly took it back, placing both of them on the steering wheel. ''So, where to?''

It was a nice restaurant. Not all classy and rich man designed. But good enough for her apparently.

''I'm surprised you could even afford this.'' She gave him a smug smile as she took her first bite of the meal they were served.

''I'm not all broke you know.'' He smirked. ''That site makes some good money.''

''You should get a real job.'' She pointed her fork at him.

Oh man, not again.

''Have you told your parents yet?'' He suddenly asked, moving on to another question.

She seemed shocked by this. ''No..'' And ashamed.

''Well, why not?''

''Because it's non of your business, that's what.'' She didn't look at him. ''I bet you haven't even told yours-''

He stopped her right away. ''I actually have. Not the pregnant thing. Just.. That you are my girlfriend.''

''I am your girlfriend?'' She seemed to stab the food on her plate harder and harder.

''Well.. Yeah? Wasn't that what we talked about?'' He raised an eyebrow.

''Yeah, of course. I just didn't think you'd actually do it. I mean, stay with a bossy, preppy girl like me.'' She let go of the fork. ''It's just not my thing you know.. Relationships. I've never been that girlfriend type.''

''Hey, don't worry. I like you.'' He smiled at her.

''Did you really just say that?'' She raised an eyebrow and looked down. ''Because.. As weird as it sounds, I think I may like you too.''

He looked amused. ''That's cool.''

''Now, I wanted you to know that we have a doctors appointment tomorrow at 12. Don't forget and for god's sake don't be late.'' She said trying to be serious, but smiled slightly as she thought of what he told her.

''Don't worry. I'll make it.'' He smirked and took the last piece of food into his mouth.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

''What the hell?'' Duncan woke up and looked at his phone.

Shit.

Several calls from Courtney and text messages.

11:30 Courtney: I'm at the hospital, where are you?

11:40 Courtney: Duncan, I was serious about the appointment last night.

1 missed call.

11:45 Courtney: Why aren't you picking up?!

2 missed calls.

11:55 Courtney: COME TO THE HOSPITAL IMMEDIATELY!

4 missed calls.

It was now 12:05.

He quickly jumped out of the bed and threw on a shirt as he made his way out the door and outside to the car. It took 15 minutes to drive to the hospital.

He quickly parked the car and ran inside to the receptionist. ''Courtney. Garcia. Which room. is the appointment in?'' He said in between breaths.

She pointed towards a door across the hall, and he proceeded his run and didn't even bother to knock as he entered.

''Duncan.'' She said with a gasp of surprise as he stood there. Now she wasn't angry or anything. She had tears in her eyes. And when he looked at the screen with the appearance of their baby he went speechless. He slowly came towards her with his eyes on the screen.

She was lying in a chair, as the doctor slid the device over her stomach slowly, doing the ultrasound.

''It's beautiful, right?'' She looked up at him.

He nodded, his eyes still on the scene.

''Would you like to know the sex of the baby?'' The doctor spoke.

''Yes.''

''No.''

They both said at once. Courtney raised an eyebrow at him. ''Why don't you want to know?''

''I just feel like it would be better as a surprise.''

''Really?'' She bit her lip slightly.

''Well, maybe. Maybe not.'' He responded quickly.

''Maybe you're right.'' She said and looked at the doctor. ''No, thanks.''

''Okay. You can stand up and clean the gel off your stomach now. Paper's right besides you. I'll be back in a second.'' He smiled at them, put the file he read from down at the table and walked out.

She stood up and took the paper as he told her to. As she took a little piece, she noticed it was empty.

''I'll go and get you some more paper.'' Duncan said and went across the room.

''Mhm.'' She nodded and moved her look around the room, and then walked towards the table with the file the doctor left behind. She carefully opened the side of it and tried reading.

''What are you doing?'' He asked suspicious.

''Oh!'' She let go of the paper casually standing there. ''Nothing, just.. Looking around.''

''You were checking weren't you?''

''No! I just wanted to make sure it was okay.'' She was such a bad liar.

''If you want to know that bad, he can tell us you know.''

''As you said. It's better to let it be a surprise.'' She smiled awkwardly walking towards him. ''Now give me that.'' She took the paper from him and wiped her stomach gently pulling her sweater down afterwards.

''If you say so.'' He said.

''Yeah, I really do.'' She responded, not entirely sure herself.

The doctor came in again and sat down in the chair besides his computer. ''Your next appointment will be in two months time, as you are three months pregnant now.'' He hands them some paper work.

''Thank you.'' She smiled and turned towards Duncan. ''Let's go.''

He opened the door and walked out of the room with her. He looked down and as they were making their way out and grabbed her hand intertwining it in his. It was their first actual time revealing their affection in front of a lot of people, and he was okay with it. She took it well also as she didn't pull away, but gave it a little squeeze.

''My mom wanted to meet you..'' He spoke as they were outside.

Her eyes brightened. ''That.. Sounds nice.'' She smiled.

''It does? You don't have to if you don't wan-'' He was stopped a finger to his mouth.

She then removed her finger and replaced it with her lips as she placed her hand on his cheek. She pulled away after a few seconds, looking at his reaction. ''Just trying it out.'' She smirked and walked away in the direction towards her car, letting him stand there confused.

''Does that mean you'll come?'' He shouted after her.

''I'll call you.'' She yelled back and sat inside the car.

He stood there, satisfied. He could at least bring good news to his mom now.

Oh shit.

He almost forgot he had to tell her about the pregnancy.

This will end badly.
