Jacelyn's P.O.V

We all got out of the Jeep and when I walked around to the back of it Adam was there and he held out his unbroken arm to hold my hand. This guy makes me really happy, and I wish I could take back everything, dating Jake, going through hell with him and everything, I'd take it back. I'd take it all back to be with Adam. Nobody knows what happened between me and Adam when we had something, but everything we did together was fun. We went to the carnival, movies, driving around town, and one weekend me and him left, we didn't tell anybody because we just wanted to be alone together. To spend time together. It was all so much fun. I still haven't told Mariska or anyone what happened with me and Adam. If I haven't told Mariska then I haven't told anyone.

We walk into Walmart and leave the boys in line at the pharmacy, and head to the pregnancy tests isle.

"I really think I am pregnant. I haven't had my period in two months, and I still haven't told Micah. Honestly, I'm scared to."

"Why are you scared?"

"Because I'm gonna have a child and I don't know how Micah will react."

"If he isn't happy when he finds out, just make him go to the ultrasounds with you and he won't be upset or whatever about it anymore. You should be happy! You're gonna have children's first!" That was a joke between me and her in high school. She always swore I'd be the one to have kids first but it's the other way around.

"I know! Now, help me look for good ones. I want two or three just to be sure," we pick some out and go to the self checkout. She pays for her purchase and we go back to get Micah an Adam. On our way to Mariska and Adam's house, Adam starts opening a bag and I figured it was his, but when I looked over he had all three pregnancy tests in his hands.

"Who's pregnant?" He asks. Mariska's eyes dart to me in the rearview mirror and I give her my 'I didn't know' look. I didn't know what to say or what to tell him.

"What are you talking about Adam?" Micah asks.

"Looks like one of our girls is pregnant because here we have three pregnancy tests," he tells Micah. They both look at me.

"Y'all think I'm the one that's pregnant?" Adam and Micah nod. Of course they would. I'm still a virgin. Adam knows that, maybe he thinks Jake changed that. One thing's for certain he didn't.

"Well Micah maybe you should turn your eyes off me," I smile at Mariska.

"Babe, are you..?" He asks, avoiding the last word.

"I..I don't know. I think I am. That's why I bought those. I didn't know if I should tell you before or after I took them, so I was just gonna make sure before I said anything. Are you mad?" He smiles.

"No. I'm not mad. I can't be. There's gonna be a mini us," they both smile a big smile. He handled that well, I'm just ready to see how easy he'll handle her labor. That'll be a sight.

We finally arrive at Mariska's and Adam's house. Their mom isn't home, but Mariska has a key to the house and she gives it to Adam to go in and get his stuff, while us three wait on him.

"So are you and Adam a thing?" Micah asks me. Are we? He hasn't asked. We're not really official but I feel like we kinda are.

"I don't know. He hasn't asked," I answer honestly. 

"Well he confessed to me yesterday before we wrecked so maybe him staying with you will make him want to make it official,"he grins.

"I can't believed we're gonna be parents, Mariska," he smiles the biggest, brightest smile and reaches over to hold her hand and kiss her. The car door opens and Adam gets in with a bag filled with clothes. I can tell it's stuffed because the zipper is sticking up and looks like it won't zip more than three quarters of the way.

"That didn't take long," I look at him and stick my tongue out. He laughs. Gosh, that laugh is the cutest thing along with his smile.

"No it didn't. Stick your tongue bag in your mouth or a fly will land on it." I love his playfulness.

It's another 30 minute drive back to Fort Payne. We finally arrive and when I look at the driveway I notice a yellow Charger. That's Jake's car.

"Who's that?" Micah asks and him and Adam jump out of the car.

"Guys come back it's Jake! Adam! Micah! Come back!" I don't think either of them hear me.

"It's Jake? How did he find you?" Mariska asks and we both get out of the car. We both run to catch up with our guys. I grab Adams non-casted arm and pull him back.

"Adam it's Jake's car," I frown. That catches Micah's attention and he turns around.

"Why the hell is he here? He's gonna end up hurting you." He clenches his fist and walks to the Charger. Luckily, Micah walked away with no injuries just cuts, scratches and bruises.  He bangs on the window and then he notices nobody is in the car. "His ass better not be in my house," he rushes off to check.

"He shouldn't be I locked the door when we left," Mariska informs him. He reaches the door and she's right it's locked.

"He might've went on a walk," I suggest.

"Hope so," Micah said through his gritted teeth. "Let's go grab our stuff out of the car and go in." He instructs us. We do as he said.

Me and Adam are seated on the loveseat. He's layed over on my lap and I'm playing with his hair. Micah is pacing back and forth and Mariska is in the bathroom. We hear the door open and Micah rushes over.

"So?" He asks he, he's obviously anxious.

"So, we're gonna be parents!" she squeals.
