The Secret

Chapter Three

"So what Darren!?!?! Why are you freaking out? That was a great night," Chris said. "Chris...you don't understand. You know how I've been getting sick a lot for the past couple of months?" Chris looked at Darren. "Darren...are you pregnant?" Darren looked down at his feet while rubbing his stomach. "DARREN EVERETT CRISS, LOOK AT ME. ARE YOU PREGNANT OR NOT," Chris yelled at Darren. "SHUT UP CHRIS...I don't want anybody to know." Chris couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe that he got Darren pregnant. He knows that men have gotten pregnant in the world, but only about 3 or 4. "How many months are you," Chris asked Darren. "I'm only 10 weeks pregnant. Nobody knows, but Mia is starting to get suspicious. She's starting to realize that I'm having weird cravings and that I'm not having as much fun in bed with her than I use to. What are we going to do Chris. I can't go through this alone." Chris grabbed Darren's shoulders and looked right into his eyes. "You won't go through this alone. I will be here for you, no matter what. Trust me." Chris let go of Darren before anybody saw them together. "Let's go back to set. We're about to start practicing again for the new season." So Darren and Chris walked back to the set and went through the rest of the day, just like everything was okay.

That night, Darren called Chris on the phone. "Chris. Could you come over? Mia isn't home and I wanted to talk to you more about the baby." Chris turned around and looked at Will, who was preparing dinner for the both of them. "Sure. I'll be there in half an hour." Chris hung up the phone and walked over to Will. "I'm so sorry baby, but I gotta go back to work for an emergency rehearsal." Will turned around and gave Chris a kiss and a hug. "It's okay. We can eat when you come back. I'll have it ready for you." "Okay babe, thank you so much. I love you." Chris grabbed the keys to his car and drove to Darren's house. All Chris could think about on the ride there was how he lied to Will. He has never done that before...EVER. He felt so guilty. But he knew that it was for a good cause. He loved Darren so much, and he promised him that he would be there for him.

Before Chris got out of the car, Darren opened the front door and ran down the driveway. "I'm so happy you came," he said as Chris opened the car door and got out. Chris gave him a kiss and they both walked inside and sat down on the couch. "So in a couple day, I'm actually going a doctor appointment to figure out the sex of our baby," Darren said. 'Our baby. He said our baby. I have to tell him how I feel,' Chris though. "Listen, Darren...I love you a lot and I always will, and I am going to support you through this, but you can't tell anybody that I was a part of this. Once the baby is born, I don't think I can come over anymore. And I can't come to any appointments either. I already had to lie to Will tonight just to come over and see you. I'm not going to help and protect you while bringing the other people that I love down." Darren stood up from the couch. "I think you should leave Chris." "But Dar-" "No Chris. Get out of my house," Darren walked over and opened the door. Without another word, Chris got up from the couch, left Darren's house, got in the car, and drove home. When Chris got back home, Will was sitting on the porch, looking pissed as ever.
