John B held out his arms for Sarah to climb into as he sensed her anxiety and stress after breaking the news to him. He couldn't quite pinpoint why she was so nervous to tell him when she knows he would do anything for her and to protect her. Obviously this was not planned, but John B had already imagined their future together, mentioning it to her a few weeks prior. While navigating a pregnancy, and therefore a child at nineteen years old was going to be challenging, John B and Sarah had been through so much together. Nothing could pull them apart; they were in it for the long haul. While the news did shock him, he wanted nothing more than to settle down with the love of his life. As John B hugged Sarah, he reminded her that he loved her and that they were going to figure this out, because they always do. Caressing her face, John B leaned in for a loving kiss, proving how close they truly were. Their commitment to one another had only gotten stronger, and they had come a long way from the Topper situation over a year ago. John B knew how much she was struggling at that time, and how his absence affected her when she needed him most. They both had grown so much, and had greatly matured as partners.

After they had caught their breaths from the kiss, Sarah started tearing up asking John B, "How are you so calm about this? I am so nervous, especially with all of my trauma, our treasure hunting, my brother, my sis-" John B cut her off. "Hey, hey, hey...I am so nervous, Sarah, I am so scared to become my dad, and to do wrong by you. While I have thought about starting a family, this is unexpected, but we have overcome so much." He explained as he smiled, finding her eyes as he did so. "When do you think this...happened? We are usually so careful." John B asked her, confusion written all over his face. Sarah started thinking, "Maybe the night we were up late by the fire after we had exchanged rings? We were so crossed that night, and I think I forgot to take my birth control that day. I couldn't remember much the next morning," Sarah said looking down, avoiding his eyes. She felt as though a part of her was to blame for being forgetful with their contraceptive.

"Hey, Sar." He grabbed her face and looked into her eyes. "Things happen, we both got too carried away that night. It was crazy, the fact that we didn't even fully make it inside... I- uh just remember waking up on the outdoor couch with you on top of me..." He said laughing, eliciting a giggle out of Sarah. "I just remember being hella sore the next day, I have no clue what happened, like where was everyone else? We were way too bold out there," Sarah said as she burst out laughing. "Look Sar, I know this is gonna be scary, I have no idea what I am doing, but with you I know I am going to be okay. You bring out the best in everyone and I cannot be more excited for our next adventure together." John B said, smiling. "I love you, John B. Thank you for always knowing what to say, and for holding me when everything gets tough. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me." Sarah told him with certainly, pushing away his doubts that she had regrets about them and what they were about to take on.

"What are we gonna name them?" Sarah asked, wiggling her eyebrows. "Woah, love, you just told me you were pregnant, can I have like a day to...I don't know, process that? But... I would actually love to name her Valerie. Val is the start of our love story together," John B stated proudly, smiling brightly thinking about their baby. "Who said they're going to be a girl?" Sarah asked him. "Well, me." John B said proudly as he started playing with her hair. Sarah was still sitting in his lap, as they were holding each other close and imagining their near future together. John B and Sarah always did this, always were able to calm each other down in ways that no one else could. Whether that was talking through their feelings, being intimate with one another, or just basking in each other's presence, they felt insanely comfortable around one another. "I want to name her Valerie too, and Val for short." Sarah told him as she leaned her head against his chest as she thought about their baby. John B held her tight and reminded her just how much he loved her.
