Chapter 46

"How did Will react?" I asked Christina once we had gotten back to her apartment.

"He was excited." She told me. "Overjoyed. But he didn't shine like Four had. I never thought that I would see him look like that."

"Neither did I," I said truthfully. Tobias had responded so much more, for lack of a better word, excited then I thought he would. I knew that when we saw each other at home that his hands would immediately find my stomach. He wouldnt want to let go.

"I think that the father usually finds it exciting at first, but then that excitement dies down after a while. At least that's how it is for Will." Christina said glumly.

I didn't really know what to say. I wanted to reassure Christina that Will was still excited, but how could I, when I didn't know what Will's feelings were. Maybe it did get old. Maybe Will just didn't find it thrilling anymore. It was probably different for everybody.

Out of nowhere, someone burst into the room.

"Where's the fire?" I shouted.

It was Marlene.

"No fire!" she exclaimed giddily. She was holding something in her right hand. As she crossed the room she brought it up to show us. A pregnancy test. A pregnancy test with a little plus sign on it.

"I'm pregnant!" she screeched.

Christina and I started to talk at the same time.

"That is awesome!" Christina said.

"Does Uriah know?" I asked.

Marlene answered me. "No!" she began. "I completely forgot about him!" And with that, she was gone.

I turned to Christina. "Is it weird that all three of us are pregnant at the same time?"

Christina considered this. "Actually it is. Now all we need is for Lynn to get knocked up. Then it can be even more weird!"

"Isn't Lynn a lesbian?" I asked. I'm pretty sure that I asked Tobias the same question not too long ago.

Christina's eyebrows furrowed. "Oh yeah. I think she is."

"Where is Lynn anyways?" I questioned. "I never see her anymore. Except sometimes at meal time."

"Good point. I'll ask the next time I see her." She looked down at her watch. "Speaking of meal time, we should go to lunch."

*Page Break*

As I was taking a bite of my hamburger, I felt someone slide into the seat next to me, lips tapping my cheek. I didn't have to look to know it was Tobias. The only other person who would ever kiss my cheek was Zeke when he was drunk. And I just know his lips.

I turned to him smiling and said, "Hey you."

He swiped my burger and took a bite. I playfully punched him in the arm.

Tobias just chuckled. "How's my girl doing?"

It was obvious that he wasn't talking about me. "The baby is not a girl." I told him.

"Do you know that for a fact?" He knew the answer.

"You know that I don't. But you don't either." I retorted.

"Touché." Tobias put his hand on my stomach, just like I thought he would. The baby kicked in response.

To my surprise, Lynn had indeed shown for lunch. Tobias, Christina, and I greeted her; then Christina dropped the question. "Hey Lynn, are you a lesbian?"
