A/N: I dreamt about the winx last night. And it was the episode where Stella was transformed into a monster by Valtor's mark. 

Anyway, let's get started! 

-------------------------------------------------------------

When I first realized I was pregnant, I was terrified. There wasn't one single reason that that feeling could be pinned down to, rather it was a long list of reasons which only made the feeling worse.


I was young. Even though you had graduated high school and were now taking university courses, you were still only nineteen — which meant you didn't have a steady income whatsoever. My boyfriend was an aspiring singer who was also in school, getting what his parents referred to as a 'backup' degree, and although the two of us had a serious relationship I hadn't really talked much about starting a family. I hadn't thought I needed to yet.

I agonized for days over how to tell Jacob the news, trying to think of the best way to break it to him when he finally got back from a weekend at his parents's house. (I'd been invited, but now you were glad you had declined. I needed as much space and time to think as I could get.)

As the hours ticked into minutes until Jacob would be home, I ran through scenarios in my head. Obviously, you didn't want to upset him in any way — and despite the fact that I really wanted him to be in my future child's life, I was willing to respect his decision if he didn't feel ready. I let every possible scenario play out my head, from the ones where he magically already had an engagement ring ready down to the ones where he stormed out within moments of hearing the words fall from my lips.

Arguably, I shouldn't have let myself think it over so much. By the time Jacob has gotten home, I've cried through a whole box of tissues and can't manage to even greet him before blurting out,

"I'm pregnant." I promptly dissolve into sobs once again.

Despite my emotional display, Jacob wastes no time in dropping his bag and coming to join me on the couch.

(A/N: Goddamn.....)

"Shh, baby, calm down

"Shh, baby, calm down." He strokes my hair, wipes the tears off my cheeks, and cradles me against his chest until I finally calm down enough to fully explain what's going on. I think his silence would terrify me, if it weren't for the gentle way he continues to stroke my hair; the tenderness in his eyes as he urges me to continue.

"I understand if it's— if it's too much," I sniff, looking down at my lap. I brace yourself for his warmth to leave my side, for the dip in the couch to disappear—

Instead, I feel Jacob's fingers under my chin, tilting my face up to meet his. He smiles at me.

"There's nobody I'd rather be with," he says. "I'm here for you, no matter what. Okay?" After a moment, I nod, breaking out into a smile for what feels like the first time all day.

"Okay."

Later that night, as I lie in bed trying to fall asleep, I feel Jacob's shift the arm that's around my waist. At first, I almost turn to question him, but then I feel him carefully place his hand over my stomach, soft as though he's afraid I'll hurt you. Then, quietly, he begins to sing.

It's a Chinese lullaby, one I've heard sung before, but it sounds so beautiful coming from him. I bite down on my lower lip, fighting back tears as I close my eyes once again.

Eventually, I drift to sleep listening to Jacob's lullaby, wondering just how I got so lucky.
