Callie's POV
After I've dropped sammy off at school I head back home and surprisingly see marianas car in front of our house. I get out and walk up to the front door where she is sitting and waiting patiently while on her phone.

"Ahem" I loudly announce myself making her look up sharply.

"Callie! I have a problem" she says in the most serious tone I've ever heard her speak.

"What's up?" I ask a little worried opening the front door to lead her into the lounge where it is a little more comfortable.

"Well I've been messing about with this guy named Logan and now I just. No. I can't even say it."

"Mariana come on its me just tell me" I try convincing her.

"I'm pregnant....." She almost whispers. I don't say anything because I'm in complete shock myself. I can't even imagine how she is feeling. She's technically single, 21 and still studying.

"Mar...."

"Don't act sympathetic Callie. This I my own stupid fault and now I just don't know what to do or how to tell anyone else. All I know if you've been in this situation but only worse" she spills out.

"Ok well. Whatever you do. Don't go off my actions. I ran away from my problems when all along I just needed to stay by the one person who loves me the most. Brandon...." I tell her making her finally look up from her lap.

"You think I should keep it?" She asks

"I think you should talk to this Logan guy and if he wants nothing to do with it. Then come back and talk to me but until you do that. He has more of a right to that decision then me and I'm pretty sure deep down you know that" I explain making her finally understand how this situation is going to have to play out.

"Do you think I could spend the day with you and my little unborn niece to keep my mind of this situation?" She then asks hopefully.

"You're more then welcome to spend the day with me mar. But I'm warning you being 8 months pregnant I only really sleep all day" I joke and she just laughs.

"That's ok. I could do with a sleeping day with all this bloody drama going on" she answers. I give her a hug before we lay down together, falling asleep not long after.

"Shhhhh, you'll wake her up dude. Be quiet" I hear from behind the couch. I see Mariana gone so she must have just left me sleep. I stretch a little to wake myself up some more before sitting up and seeing my little men in the kitchen with a big tub of ice cream and the chocolate cake.

"What's all this?" I ask startling them a little since they thought I was still sleeping.

"Hey beautiful. I thought you were napping" Brandon says coming over to me giving me a slight peck on the lips.

"Yeah I was. But I've been asleep all day. Little monkey tired me out last night" I explain rubbing my stomach.

"Well this big monkey wanted to apologise for the way he acted this morning. Apparently he was naughty and then felt bad. So he told me about it when I picked him up and decided he wanted to get you some ice cream and chocolate cake to say sorry and make you feel better" Brandon explains. I look at sammy and he looks nervous. Like he doesn't know if I'm going to like what he's done.

"Sammy did you do this for me?" I ask in an excited tone and his face immediately turns from shy to the happy bubbly face I love.

"Yeah mama. Look. I got your favourite flavour too!" He lightly shouts.

"Well thank you buddy this makes me feel a lot better. Do you promise to try and behave a little better in the mornings?" I ask

"Yeah mama. I promise" he agrees giving me a hug around my legs before. Running of to God knows where in this house. Ever since we moved to have more room for this baby I swear to god I lose sammy in s new room every day.

"Can our kid be any cuter?" I ask walking up to Brandon wrapping my arms around his neck.

He chuckles giving me a peck "I don't think anything but cute could come from your genes" he replies pulling me as close as my stomach will let us come together. "I also can't wait to see how much Our little girl looks like you and smiles like you. It's my dream to have a mini you running around" he tells me with out faces just inches apart staring deep into each other's eyes.

"Well I'm more then ecstatic that I have already had a mini you for 5 years and now get to bring another human being that has part of you in her into this world" I tell him.

We stand there holding each other for a while and then my stomach grumbles.

"Is my baby and my mini baby hungry?" Brandon teases

"I've been asleep all day and haven't had a chance to eat" I answer.

"Callie! What have I told you about making sure you at least have breakfast. If not for you then for her!" Brandon says in a panic.

"Babe calm down. It was just one morning and it was only because it was so hectic with sammy. I promise to have some food now and make sure I have something tomorrow morning" I assure him. He nods and lifts me up onto the kitchen bench. "How can you still lift me when I'm the size of an elephant?"

"Hey! You're not the size of an elephant......just a baby elephant" he jokes and I playfully hit his arm "kidding babe kidding" he say holding his arms up defensively. "You look just as beautiful as always. Actually you look even more beautiful to me knowing that you're protecting our child inside you" I can't stop smiling as he talks and I just pull him into me and we lovingly indulge each other's lips until we are out of breath.

"I'm lucky you're my man"

"I'm lucky you're my girl"
