"Good morning," Jack says as he walks into my hotel room with two cups of coffee. He sets the drinks down and comes over it hug me but pulls away when I don't hug back. "Whats wrong babe?"

"I- I'm late."

"Late for what? What's going on."

"I haven't gotten my period. I think I might be pregnant."

He is silent for a moment. "Jack?"

"Let's go get a test," he says. I nod and grab my purse before following him out. I close the door behind us and Jack engulfs me in a hug. "It's going to be ok," he says before placing a kiss on the top of my head.

,,,

"Which one do you think is the best?" Jack asks as I pace up and down the aisle.

"I don't know. Just pick one," I say waving my hand in dismissal.

"Hey," he says grabbing me by the shoulders, stopping me from my pacing. "It's going to be fine."

"But what if it's not."

"It will be. If your not pregnant, then we'll save the whole baby thing for later. But if you are, we're ready."

"No we're not."

"We can be. This could be really great."

I slowly nod. "Let's get that one,"'I say pointing to a box.

,,,

"How much longer?" I say as I pace throughout the hotel room.

"30 seconds. Just relax," he says as he smiles at my nervous habit.

The timer dings and Jack and I both freeze.

"I can't look," he says.

My eyes widen, "I can't either!"

"We'll look together," he says grabbing my hand pulling me to the counter. Neither of us look down yet.

"1, 2, 3," Jack counts down and we both look. Neither of us say anything.

"We're having a baby," I say, emotionless. All the sudden tears stream down my face and a wide grin appears. "We're having a baby!" I repeat, this time happier.

I look over at Jack who is also smiling. He picks me up and twirls me around.

"We're having a baby!" he screams.
