I couldn't believe what I just heard. I'm pregnant!

"Oh my God, Newt, I'm like so excited right now! I'm actually gonna have a baby! I'm gonna be a mommy!" I said to Newt excitedly.

"And I'm gonna be a daddy!" Newt says excitedly.

He and I embrace tightly and then we look in each other's eyes with love and affection.

"Well, hello daddy Newt." I teased him.

"And hello mommy Jacqui." Newt teased back. I growl flirtatiously and we kiss passionately.

"We gotta tell the others! They're gonna be so excited!" I say.

"Yeah! Let's go!" Newt replies.

We ask Vince to gather everyone around cuz we have a big announcement. Once everyone was gathered around, they were eager to listen to what the big news were.

"We have a big news. Guys...we're having a baby! I'm pregnant!" I say.

Everyone starts congratulating us and cheering for us.

"Oh my, congratulations!" Thomas says with a big smile.

"I knew this would happen! Congrats!" Minho says while smiling.

"Good luck, you two." Gally says while smiling.

"Aw I'm so proud of you both!" Brenda says with a smile and hugs me and Newt.

"Congratulations, hermana, hermano." Jorge says to us.

"Oh my God I'm gonna be an auntie!" Sonya says excitedly and then hugs Harriet.

"Even though I already knew, I'm so happy for you two." Harriet says with a smile and hugs me and Newt.

"Please name it after me." Frypan says jokingly.

"Nah, she's gonna name it after me." Minho says.

"Guys, guys. Settle down. I've decided the names already. If it's boy...I'm naming him Chuck. And if it's a girl, I'm naming her after...my mother. Angelina." I say.

"Aww, that's very sweet, Jacqui." Newt smiles and wraps an arm around me.

About a couple months later, my baby bump was getting bigger. It's a little hard getting used to being pregnant. I was sitting down on the couch, trying to get comfortable. The pregnancy is causing me a little muscle pain and it's a little hard for me to eat sometimes. I really hope things don't get worse from the pregnancy. I feel a wave of worry over me. Even though I'm alone, I try not to cry, but tears stream down my cheeks anyway. Although I think I'm alone. I was totally unaware of Newt watching me from the hallway. He walks in and sits next to me on the couch. I quickly wipe my tears and try to keep a brave face. Newt knows that I'm not okay as I could tell with the look of concern on his face.

"Jacqui..." Newt says soothingly and wraps an arm around me. I feel more tears stream down my cheeks. I couldn't hold it in anymore. Newt pulls me in a comforting hug and tries to calm me down.

"Shhh...what's the matter, love?" Newt soothes me and rubs my back.

"This...This pregnancy is hurting my muscles, like whenever I need to get up or something, I feel unbearable pain on my back and legs...! And...I can barely eat anything...I feel alone...And...I'm sorry I didn't tell you this, but...I've been having nightmares about the baby or me dying when I give birth. And I'm scared that it's gonna come true...and Teresa was in my dreams, saying...to me...that...that it was my fault that we left her at W.C.K.D. to die...God, Newt, I'm going through hell!" I cry in his chest while admitting my problems that I've had for the past couple months.

Newt hugs me tighter and massages my back to ease the pain and my anxiety.

"Oh, Jacqui..." he whispers and looks at me with sympathy and pushes a strand of hair behind my ear. He leans against my ear.

"Shhh...shh shh shh shhhh..." Newt shushes me gently against my ear and kisses my ear softly.

"It's okay...You're never alone...I'm right here. With you. I'm sorry about these nightmares you've been having. Don't worry, they won't come true. Don't lose hope. And no, don't even bloody think that it's your fault about what happened to Teresa. It's not. She wasn't mad at you when she died. She knew she was going to die and she died loving you and saving Thomas. It's not your fault at all. It's just your mind tricking you. It's not real. I promise..." he whispers to me wiping my tears with this thumbs.

"O...Okay..." I respond as I understood, but I was still crying and having a hard time calming down.

"Shhhh...calm down...I'm here...and you need to start eating or you're gonna kill the baby...and yourself..." Newt says to me soothingly and with a stern face. I can see he's trying to hold back tears since he's worried about me and the baby.

"I don't want our baby to die...I don't wanna die either..." I cry as I close my eyes tightly at the thought of myself dying, especially the baby. I can't bear it.

"Then you need to eat, my love. Come on." Newt says as he gets up and he holds his hands out since I need help getting up cuz of the back pain. I hold his hands tightly and I feel a sharp pain on my lower back. I groan in pain. Newt rubs my back soothingly and walks me over to the kitchen. I sit down on a chair and wait for whatever food Newt is going to give me. I hesitate to eat but I had to do it. For myself. For the baby. And for Newt.

"How do you feel, love?" Newt asks me very calmly and puts his hand on my stomach.

"I..." as I was about to answer, he cut me off as he noticed something.

"Wait. I think I just felt..." Newt says as he puts his other hand on my stomach. We wait about a few seconds. He looks at me with a smile, widened eyes, and I see tears starting to fill his eyes.

"The baby kicked...It kicked!" Newt says happily as a tear streams down his cheek. I was so happy! Tears streamed down my cheeks.

"Oh my God...The baby loves you...!" I joked and started crying tears of joy. Newt laughs as more tears streamed down his cheeks.

"I love you, too, my lovely son or daughter. And your mommy loves you, too..." Newt says as he talks in a cute little high-pitched voice and with his sexy British accent and kisses my stomach. The way he talked in that high voice made me laugh and made my heart explode with cuteness.
