• Completely shocked
• Then confused
• Then angry...very angry
• "That thing better be gone by the time I come back."
• Stormed out
• When he came back you informed him you were keeping the baby
• He stormed out again
• You didn't see him for 3 weeks
• The other Pogues updated you on how he was
• Which wasn't good
• JJ was drinking all day and fighting any person that looked at him wrong
• He made the mistake of going home to get some clothes
• His father had found out about the baby and beat him
• Without thinking he ran to your house
• You held him as he cried and cleaned up his cuts
• "What did I do to deserve you?"
• Once the adrenaline had worn off the two of you were left in awkward silence
• "How are you feeling with, uh, everything?"
• It was the first time you two talked about the baby
• You told him he could be as involved as he wanted, but you were still keeping the baby
• He broke down again
• You held him again
• "I won't make a good father (y/n). I don't even know what one looks like."
• You told him that his childhood didn't define how he would be as a parent
• That was enough for JJ to realize he couldn't leave you
• And if not leaving you meant raising his child...then he would do his best
• "I should never have stormed out, or said what I did. I was scared and it was stupid. But I'm here now. I'll do the best I can, and I'm not going anywhere. You're stuck with me."
• You were wrapped in JJ's arms the whole night
• Your shirt had lifted slightly in the night and when JJ woke up he could see a small bump forming underneath
• He jumped out of bed...this was his reality check
• JJ was absolutely terrified
• You weren't teenagers anymore, but you were still young
• Not to mention broke
• He almost ran again, but then his eyes flicked from your face to your stomach and he got back in bed
• JJ placed his hand on your bump and for a second felt at peace
• Then he got an idea
• "Um this is weird. I'm not really sure what to say, um hello I suppose." He relaxed a little. "Listen, I'm going to try my best. I promise. But that might not be enough. God I hope it is. Your mother is this amazing Angel and she'll be perfect, I have no doubt of that. I'm really going to do my best not to fuck it up though. Oh shit. I, uh, I mean shoot. Not a great start. But anyway goodnight."
• That was the first of many nights JJ spent talking to your bump
• After the first night JJ's anger subsided and he started to adapt
• He couldn't shake his fears though
• Stopped smoking weed altogether
• JJ started drinking a lot less when he went to parties
• He actually started going to less parties too
• And in the beginning when you went to a few parties, sober of course, he didn't leave your side
• And no one, but the other pogues, were allowed near you
• He also stopped getting in fights less around you
• But people talked and when you weren't with him he couldn't stop himself from punching a few assholes
• JJ was very nervous when you went on the boat
• He thought the movement would be too dangerous
• You told him you'd be fine but that didn't stop him from holding onto you the whole boat ride
• And don't even think about trying to stand on the boat without his arm around you
• "The water looks a little rough today maybe we should boat another day. How does a nice relaxing day sitting sound?"
• "Woah, woah, (Y/n). What did we say about standing on the boat. It rocks too much for you to stand on your own babe. Here I'll hold you. Think about the baby."
• The always cool JJ Maybank was in a constant state of worry
• JJ forbid Rafe and Topper to so much as look at you wrong and he said it so fierce, for once, they didn't test him
• "If you so much look at her the wrong way I promise, I will end you. Don't test me."
• He started working harder to earn some extra money
• He tried not to worry about you but he really stressed about money
• The two of you bought a little apartment with a nursery
• He painted it and even built the crib
• The crib caused a lot of swearing and a few splinters 
• JJ wanted a girl
• Worried he'd mess up a boy like his father did with him
• Still worried constantly about being good enough
• Was excited to teach your kid how to surf
• "Oh my god, a baby surfboard. (Y/n), we have to get this."
• Read all the parenting books he could find
• The other pogues made fun of him for his nose always being buried in a parenting book
• "Shut up, all of you."
• Freaked out when your kid kicked for the first time
• Like jumped up and down, ran to tell the other pogues
• He kept his hand on your bump the rest of the day
• Even though he was terrified for the future the idea of parenthood had grown on him and he was excited
• "I hope the baby looks like you, but wouldn't it be cool if they had my hair and eyes!"
• JJ was too impatient to wait for the gender
• You did a little gender reveal party with you and the other pogues
• When you found out it was a girl you could see some tension leave his body
• "A baby girl. Our baby girl."
• Tears pricked at his eyes but he later claimed the room was dusty
• As your pregnancy came to an end JJ, somehow, became even more protective and antsy
• "I'll get that."
• "Okay, now I'm really saying no to the boat."
• "You better not lift a single thing."
• "How are you feeling? Need anything?"
• "Babe sit, I've got it. You rest."
• His doubt skyrocketed the last few weeks of your pregnancy
• But every time he thought he couldn't do it you reassured him he could
• Every false alarm left JJ white as a sheet, sweating, and completely panicked
• When you actually went into labor he was no different
• A total mess
• "Okay, nobody panic!"
• "(Y/n) have you seen the hospital bag! I thought it was right here but it's gone! Oh wait here it is."
• He held your hand the whole time
• And peppered your face with kisses
• "You're doing great baby. You're incredible."
• You'd seen JJ stitch some cuts from fights up himself but the poor boy almost passed out, more than once
• When your little girl was born JJ cried
• This time he did not claim there was dust in the room
• He was so nervous to hold her
• "What if I drop her?"
• You didn't give him a chance to go on before plopping her in his arms
• "Hello baby girl. I'm your dad."
• He hardly put her down the rest of the day
• JJ was still terrified but he was determined to do his best for his little family
• "You know in a few years from now maybe, well, maybe we could do this again."
