Beeping from a machine yanks me from my sleep as the only thing I remembered was being dragged and stuffed into the trunk of a car.

"Hey, hey, you're alright," Will says, being there with Chad and Aero.

I'm dressed in a hospital gown with tubes in my arms.

"How'd I? What? How'd you find me?"

Chad sighs, "I told them about the call. Then Juniper."

Laying back winching as my lip twitches with pain as there's a cut on it, I look up to the ceiling now feeling the bandage on my side.

"What did the doctor say?" I ask them not looking to them waiting for it to be a minimal damage report.

Aero clears his throat saying, "Your wound was pretty deep, lost a lot of blood and you're pregnant."

Almost choking while sitting up fast, I look at all three men.

"Pregnant? Pregnant? How can I? With all the shit that happened?"

Chad now sits by me, "There is a chance you could lose it because of the internal trauma you suffered from whatever Juniper did but they said you're about 2 weeks."

Shaking my head I feel tears building up, "N-No..."

Aero looks to me thinking it could be his, Will has the same look while I think of the worse and believe it's Ronan's.

"Do...do you know who the father is?" Chad asks softly now, holding my hand.

I now look to Aero and Will, "I fucked you both and then I—Ronan," I say feeling sick.

Both Jorn brothers look at each other.

"Wait, when was this?" Will says to Aero raising his eyebrow about to hem Aero up by his shirt.

"Last night, then that night I—" Will scoffs, "You son of a bitch," Ready to punch Aero, Chad gets in the middle keeping them apart.

"Stop. Ayla doesn't need all this bullshit right now. Why don't you get her water and Will you walk off the anger for now. Can we do that? Then come back and have a civil conversation?"

Aero leaves and a little after Will does too.

"Both? You slept with both?" Chad says now looking at me shocked.

My thoughts start hammering into my skull screaming that this pregnancy is not real.

I was doing drugs, drinking, fucking, I can't–I can't be a mom.

Ripping the tubes out my arms, I try and find my clothes but there's nothing having me start going insane.

"Where are my clothes! I need my clothes!" I scream with tears now falling as I rummage through the hospital room for them.

Chad tries to calm me down but I shake my head rapidly, "No! This isn't happening! If–If I'm pregnant? The last person I actually had inside me? Was fucking Ronan! Ronan!" I tremor now feeling nauseous, "And–I wasn't even conscious," I cry out more now knowing the choices I made really screwed me more than they could ever.

Slowly going closer to me, Chad embraces me in a hug as I break down heavily on his chest.

Aero comes in with the water while Will is still out trying to get his head leveled enough to understand he might be the dad or his brother.

"What–is she okay?" Aero places the cup down now going over to me but Chad shakes his head, "Give her a bit," Caressing my hair then wiping my tears I move now leaning on the wall looking down at my stomach.

"I fucked up," I say low letting more tears slip down my face now looking to Aero.

Taking small steps, he now holds my face looking into my eyes, "If it's mine, we'll figure it out," But I shook my head to stop him from talking, "I–it might be–" He lets go thinking I was going to say Will now putting that cold expression he wears best having me fall to my knees disgusted with damn self knowing the truth.

"G-Go...just go!" I yell out having Chad grab Aero's arm leaving me alone until Will shows up seeing the both of them outside of my hospital room door.

"How is she?" Will asks more concerned than Aero did, irking Aero even hearing his brother sound that way towards me.

Chad holds his head, "On a scale to one to ten on the freaking out meter? Ten."

Will is about to go in until Aero stops him, "She wants to be alone. So, let's give her that," Will looks to his brother's hand on his ready to fling it off but keeps his cool as Chad mouths to him to not doing anything stupid.

"I didn't think you knew Ayla like that," Will says now addressing the elephant in the room between the both of them.

Aero shrugs, "It wasn't planned. It just happened."

Chuckling, grinning, Will nods, "Right, right, so your dick magically slipped in? Is that what you're saying?" He says now getting serious.

Raising his hands up he says, "It was being horny and nothing else. Why? Did you actually think I would fall for someone like he–" Will hems Aero up by the wall, glaring at his brother, "You took her to bed twice so don't go all wise ass saying some stupid shit about what she is and what she does. If she was good enough to lay down, then yeah feelings tend to follow right after which by saying what you did proves you just wanted sex and nothing more. So, if the baby turns out to be yours, you be a man and raise it right."

Aero glares back, "And if it's yours? What are you going to do? Run away? Become a white picket fence family? Ayla is a coke head. She screws her feelings away. Drinks to numb the rest. What a great family you got there alright."

Punching his brother, Aero now puts Will in a headlock only to be broken up by Chad again, "Stop! Alright? It might not even be either of you and points off Aero for being an asshole. I wouldn't want that baby to be yours the way you just talked down on Ayla like she's some toy you can screw and not give any ounce of care for her as a human being. She's gone through hell. Literal hell. She doesn't need someone to tell her it's going to be okay, she needs to be shown it will. So, even if one of you is that baby's dad or not, pull your shit together and be there."

I now open the door looking at all three, "I called...I called Ronan. He's on his way..."

Will and Aero look to Chad now knowing what he meant by it might not be theirs and someone else's.
