Jodys POV

These past few weeks have gone so fast. Tyler has only been able to stay in my room a few times as we are so worried we will get caught. We are currently on the waiting list for a 2 bed flat. We lied and said one for me and one for Ty but we all know who that 2nd bedroom is for.

Today's is the day of my 12 weeks scan. Genuinely think Tyler is more excited that I am he keeps going on about it. I am so glad that out of anyone I could have had a baby young with its him. His mum was young when he was born so we know she won't judge us.

It was only 7am but I hurt Tyler at my door to see if I was awake. I was so I allowed him to come and cuddle with me. He put his hand on my belly which now had a slight bump even when lieing down. In the evenings it got even more noticeable I cannot wear any of my jeans anymore and life in oversized hoodies. No one has picked me up on it yet.

T: I cannot believe we wil get to see him or her today. If they have even half your beauty I will be happy.

J: it's come by quick. I'm just glad I'm not longer on the first trimester and my sickness will have gone.

My phone's buzzed, it was Sash.

S: Hey Jody, I hope the scan goes well today please send me a picture asap I cannot wait to see. I'll cover you today if it over runs don't worry

J: thanks Sash you are the best. Don't know what id do without you.

J: Hey Ty I know who I want Godmother to be.... Sasha. She has been such a help to me and my best friend.

T: perfect choice, just need a godfather now but no idea who that can be.

We Hurd some stirring so thought best if Tyler went back to his room and we meet downstairs for breakfast. I got changed in my usual leggings and hoodie. I cannot wait to get maternity jeans but since it's group washing here I cannot just yet.

I checked my pregnancy app which I do everyday and it says my baby is currently the size of a passionfruit. I screenshotted it and sent to Ty.

T: the cutest passionfruit around

I headed down for some breakfast but was so nervous I wasn't sure if could eat. It was only Chloe candy bird and Ty downstairs. Ty has made me some cereal and orange juice. I thanked him and sat down but jsut started at it. He nuged me and with his eyes told me to eat it. I really tried but I was so nervous. I mean yes it's a scan but it is also where you find out if everything is okay, tests get done etc.

Under the table Ty put his hand on my belly as if the say everything will be fine.

The scan was at 9am in talbort ward hospital which was a 30 min walk away we decided to walk so left at 8.15am to ensure we got there in time.

On the way we discussed baby names.

T: for a boy I'd love Joshua or Jacob.

J: hmm that's quite close to Jody though.

T: maybe that's why I like them.

J: I like the names Georgia and Jack. Ohh I like Jack not so much Georgia though.

Okay well we don't even know the sex yet so it's okay. We still have 8 weeks until we find that out.

We held hands while walking and it felt so nice to be a couple. Having to his it in the dumping ground makes me sometimes feel it is not real.

Finally got there with 20 mins to spare and was showed to the waiting room. There were so many other women there and I was by far the youngest. I felt people judging us. Yes we were 16 but we know we will take care of this child just as well as anyone else if not better and we know what having crap parents feels like. Play with everyone at the dumping ground out baby will be well loved.

Nurse: Jody Jackson please.

Tyler and I looked at each other and smiled. We walked over to the nurses room.

Nurse: Hello my name is Sarah and I will be conducting the scan today. If you would like the lie on the bed for me and just expose your belly.

I saw down lifted up my top and pulled my leggings down a bit. My bump had grown quite a lot recently and was quite prominent on my small body.

She started a nice conversation while checking out my details and dates etc and asked about the 2 of us.

T: so are you support or the father.

T: yes I am the father, I am very excited to see this little one.

N: I'll get straight to it then

She was smiling and made me feel so comfortable.

N: right Jody this will be a little cold.

She rubbed the gel on my bump and got the scanner the picture came up in front of us and at first it looked a bit odd she moved it around and then there it was, in my stomach a baby. It all seemed so real now. That was a direct picture from my belly. He or she them moved around and we could see that. Their arms lifted up and Tyler made a joke that they were waving at us.

I never want this moment to end. Staring at the screen at my baby was perfect she saved a few photos for us to have copies of. Not having this on my wall will kill me.

Tyler's POV

Looking at Jody and her bump then looking at the screen makrs it so real. That is my baby in there, our love. It's amazing. She gave us a few copies of the scan pictures and I just want to stare at it. I cannot wait to meet our baby.

...

We walked out of the hospital and went straight to the park to chat it over.

I put my arm around her and placed my hand on her belly.

T: These next few months I cannot wait to see him or her grow, we will be great parents.

J: I'm so happy you feel that way. When I found it I was gutted but your reaction really makes me see the light in this situation.

T: I love you Jodes, more that even I ever realised.

J: I love you too.

She leaned on me and we just sat there is silence mulling over the day.
