Stella and Chase were down in Annapolis, to visit his family. They were driving around town, because they still had some time to spare. Then something stuck in Chase's mind

"Stell?" Chase asked

"Yeah?" Stella asked

"Just because we're in here and we're visiting my side of the family, do you think we should tell them that you're pregnant?" Chase asked

"I think we should... but on the other end, you know that there's a very high chance of the baby not making it through the whole pregnancy." Stella said

"Yeah, you're right, babe. We done have to tell them if you don't want to." Chase said

"Since we have more time, do you want to swing by my old house?" Stella asked

"Yeah, sure. We haven't been there in a while." Chase said

They drove all the way to her old house while they played Stella's music. When they drive mr the house, it was still there

"After eighteen years, it still stands, Chase." Stella said

"Yeah. I'm surprised." Chase said

It was around 9pm and everyone was having fun and having a good time. Since Stella was pregnant, she couldn't drink so she drank water. She went over to Chase while he talking to his father, Jeff. She got his attention and whispered "Do you want to tell them now?"

Chase nodded and placed down his glass of grape juice, since he didn't want her to feel left out. "Okay, everyone. Can Stella and I have your attention?"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over at the two of them

"What is it, Chase?" Jennifer asked

"Well, Stella and I want to tell everyone something that happened recently." Chase said as he smiled

"Did you propose to her?" Kaden asked

"No. Something else." Chase said

"What is it then?" Jeff asked

"Well, as you know, Chase and I have been trying to conceive a baby. And just a few weeks ago, we were blessed with a little baby. I'm pregnant!" Stella said

Everyone erupted into cheers and hugged both Stella and Chase. Once everyone was calm, Chase spoke

"But there is a catch." Chase said

"Oh, don't worry, Chase. We won't spoil the baby." Kendall said jokingly

"No, that's not it. As you know, Stella's side of the family has a background of miscarriages." Chase said

Then Stella decided to carry on. "So, the baby may not survive the whole pregnancy. So that means that I may have a miscarriage." Tears filled her eyes just thinking about loosing the baby.

Chase reassured her as he rubbed his hand on her arm

"Listen, dear. If you end up having a miscarriage, we'll always be there to support you." Jennifer said and gave Stella a hug

"Thanks, Jennifer." Stella said

"Don't worry, sweetheart. You're a part of the Stokes family. Even if you're not engaged to Chase." Jennifer said and they hugged once more before everyone went to bed for the night

They were still in Chase's hometown. He was just chilling around with his siblings while she was reading up on a pregnancy book in the living room. She then felt a dip in the couch and looked up from the book

"Hey, Jennifer." Stella said as she closed the book and set it aside

"Hello, Stella. How are you finding it here?" Jennifer asked

"It's really great. I can't believe that I'm a part of this family." Stella said

"Same goes to me, Stella. Before Kendall fell asleep, she said that you seemed like a nice girl to have around." Jennifer said

"Really? She said that?" Stella asked

"Yes, she did." Jennifer said as she looked at Stella "I promise honey, that he will be the best dad a girl or boy could ask for."

"Yeah, speaking from experience, he certainly is a joy to have around." Stella said. They both talked and joked about how weird Chase was when he was a kid. It wasn't until Chase came around the corner

"I guess you have to say his name more than three times before he comes. Guess that he isn't Beetlejuice after all." Jennifer joked and they both laughed while Chase covered his face with embarrassment

"Really Mom, you had to tell her that?" Chase asked

"Well, could I talk to Stella for a sec?" Chase asked

"Yeah, sure."Jennifer said, getting up and kissed Chase on the cheek, leaving the room

Harry moved to the couch and sat down, they kissed and hugged "Do you think it's time to tell your parents the news?"

"Yeah, I think. But just not right now, if the baby does happen to make it past the pregnancy then we'll tell them. But if the baby doesn't make it past the pregnancy, we'll just talk to my parents to and tell them we had a miscarriage."

"Okay, baby. Sounds like a plan. You hungry?" Chase asked

"Chase, I'm pregnant." Stella said

"So, that's a no?" Chase asked

"No, that's a yes. I'm always hungry." Stella said

"Okay, what do you want?" Chase asked

"Just a sandwich." Stella said

"Your favorite kind?" Chase asked

"Yes, my favorite kind?" Stella said

Chase kissed her and went off to make a sandwich

It was night, Stella and Chase were just in the guest bedroom, getting ready for bed. Stella was on the bed, reading a pregnancy book when Chase made a dip in the bed. He kissed her temple and they both got under the covers, looking at each other

Chase pulled her close to him, her arms around his neck while he wrapped his arms around her waist "Soon enough we won't be able to do this anymore."

"Yeah. Soon enough there will hopefully be a baby in our lives." Stella said as she moved her arms, down to his waist

"I love you, baby." Chase said

"I love you too, baby." Stella said

"Don't say that, it sounds like you're agreeing with me." Chase chuckled

Stella giggled as she smiled "I love you more."
