Since I am going by myslef that gives me the opportunity to grab something else without the boys getting on me and asking questions.

"Hey baby. Is there anything that you need from the store that isn't on the list? I am going to be leaving soon. I will stop by next door and ask the boys if they need anything before I go." I tell Johnny who walks in with a sleepy Ember in his arms.

"I think you have it covered, if there is anything you see that we might need than you can grab it." he said giving me a few short kisses before he kissed my nose and gave me a long liss to the forehead. I giggled a little when he kissed my nose.

"Okay. I love you both. Oh, do you need me to pick up cancer sticks?" I ask him. He has been trying to lay off them and not smoke as much, it is a slow process but it is working.

"I still have some left. You don't have to, but you can. If I need any in the next few days I will have you buy some at work or I will have Dal get me some. Don't worry about it Cupcake." he said sincerely.

We kissed once more and I kissed Ember on the head before grabbing the shopping list, my purse, and the keys. I walked out the door and next door. I walk in and see that they are all there but Soda and Steve.

"Hey Darry. Do you have a shopping list? I am heading to the store now, I can get whatever you need while I'm there." I say walking in the door.

"Yeah, I have it right here." he said coming out of the kitchen with it. "Be careful Babygirl. You know what, why don't I go with you. It just makes me feel better, okay."

"That's fine. We can take my car." I said walking to the door with Darry following me.

Once we are in my car and a few miles from home I decided to twell Darry what was on my mind.

"Hey Dar Bear." I say getting his attention.

"Yeah. Is there something wrong?" he asks.

"No, not necessarily. I am going to tell you this and I want it to stay between us and I hope you aren't mad." I say, pausing to look at him when we stop at a stop sign.

"What is it Ro? You know you can tell me anything right? I will listen." he questions.

"I think I am pregnant. I haven't taken any tests yet, I don't have any in the house so I am picking some up when we get to the store. It has been a month since Ember's birthday and I been sick everyday and eating more not too long after it." I tell him glancing over at him and then back at the road.

"I'm not mad and you should know that. I love you Ro, you're my baby sister and my only sister at that. You're married, have a kid, and are a mature and responsible adult. I will keep this between us until you say otherwise. And I am excited to have another neice or maybe a nephew. You are a great mother and Johnny is a great father, I don't doubt anything you do. He will love to have another kid around." Darry tells me sincerely.
