Spencer, Aria, Hanna, and Emily were all sat in their pyjamas on Hanna's bed.

"I was surprised when you called, Hanna. Are you feeling better?" Spencer asked, looking at her friend with a worried look on her face.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Hanna said with a slight tremor in her voice. "That's actually what I wanted to talk to you guys about though," She said quickly. It was better to just get it out now, before she chickened out. Aria frowned and set down the magazine she had been flipping through.

"This sounds serious," She said.

"Yeah, it is..." Hanna said, taking a deep breath and glancing over quickly at Emily, who gave her a reassuring nod.

Spencer looked worried too. If something was serious to Hanna, it was definitely serious.

"I'm, um... I'm pregnant," Hanna forced the words out and exhaled slowly. It was the first time she had said those two words out loud, and it felt like a huge relief and a huge pressure at the same time. She was glad it was out there, but it made the situation seem much more real. She looked up at Spencer and Aria's faces, which were frozen in states of shock. Finally, Spencer regained her composure, though her deep brown eyes were still wide.

"You are?" She asked, at a loss for words. Hanna nodded, avoiding eye contact as she twisted her fingers in her lap.

"How far along are you? When did you find out? Does Caleb know? Does your mom know?" Spencer asked, full of questions.

"Spencer! Slow down!" Emily said, letting out a small giggle.

"What! How are you not shocked by this information?!" Aria said. Emily looked down.

"Because I sort of... already knew," She admitted. Aria's jaw dropped again.

"What! Hanna, how come you didn't tell us?" She said, "You know we'll always support you," Hanna nodded.

"I know. I told Emily earlier when she drove me home. A texted me and sort of told me I had to tell everyone, and I kind of just broke down, so I told her then," She explained. Aria and Spencer nodded.

"And Spence, to answer all your questions... I think I'm around five weeks, I found out on Friday night, and Caleb and my mom don't know, but I'm telling Caleb tomorrow and my mom on Monday," Hanna told Spencer. Spencer looked at Hanna sympathetically.

"I guess this explains, um... everything that's been going on with you," Spencer said. Hanna laughed softly.

"You can say it. I know I've been a wreck," She replied. The girls all laughed.

Aria hesitated before asking, "Do you know, you know... what you're going to do?"

Hanna's eyes flickered down.

"No, not yet. I want to talk to Caleb first." She said. Her friends nodded.

"That makes sense," Spencer agreed.

"We're here for you no matter what, Hanna. Do whatever you feel is best. I'd love to be an auntie," Aria smiled, "But I can wait a few more years too." Hanna smiled back.

"Thanks you, guys. It feels good to have it out in the open," She admitted to them. The girls all nodded, and Aria wrapped her in a side-hug while Spencer squeezed Hanna's hand gently.

"Of course," Emily said.

"Wait, so just to be clear, your uncle didn't actually die, right?" Spencer asked sarcastically, cocking an eyebrow and letting go of Hanna's hand. Hanna laughed.

"No, Spencer."

"I knew it!! Your grandma doesn't even have any siblings!" Spencer exclaimed. Hanna rolled her eyes and the girls all bursted out laughing. It felt like normal times. For the first time in a few days, Hanna felt happy. But she still had a long road ahead of her.
