EPILOGUE

"Milo? I need to talk to you, dude." I say, slightly panicked. It was already 3 am here but it was only midnight in LA. I was hiding in the bathroom, sitting on the floor. Our honeymoon had dragged on for a lot longer than we had originally planned.

"Brooke? Mama, I'm kind of in the middle of some-" He says, sounding exhausted. I bite my nails, knowing I was interrupting him.

"I'm sorry.. I just.. I need someone to talk to, Milo." I whisper, trying to hold back tears. I could hear everything stop on his line before he whispered something inaudible to who I suppose was Ethan.

"I'm all ears, girl. What's wrong? Did they hurt you?" He bombards me with questions making me shake my head.

"N-no, they'd never. I just- I'm late Milo.." I whisper, hoping the guys were still asleep. I could hear Milo's breath hitch, making me chuckle softly. "Maybe I'm just over dramatic.."

"When was it supposed to come down?" He asked, the sound of the mic different.

"Am I on speaker now?" I deadpan.

"...Yes..." He says bluntly before encouraging me to talk. I sigh softly.

"It was supposed to come down a few days before last week.. but I never questioned anything because my periods are irregular y'know? But this time it feels different.." I whisper, clawing at my socks.

"Brooklyn.. are you-?" He starts, only for me to cut him off.

"Shhh. I don't even want to think of it right now. What if I am? They'll be so pissed.." I whisper, feeling dread make itself at home in my bones.

"Sunshine, those fellas are the last people to get angry at you for this. You know them better than anyone. You know they won't get angry." Ethan chimes in, reassuring me. I felt like I could breathe a little better, but damn. There was this nagging feeling in my chest. "Get a pregnancy test."

"Ethan I-" I start, only for him to cut me off.

"No, sunshine. Get one, do it, and whatever the results are, know that you have a whole nation supporting you." He says, making me laugh softly.

"A nation?" I chuckle, feeling the dread in my bones starts to rest a little. "How would I get it without them knowing? It'll be impossible."

"You can figure this out, BB. I know you can. If you need someone to talk to while you piss just call me." Milo teases, making me roll my eyes.

"Thank you two.. really."

I got it.

I sat on the floor in the bathroom, my finger hovering over Milo's contact as the pregnancy test lay face down. I wanted to call him as I flipped it. When the timer on my phone goes off, I ring Milo.

I had sent the guys out to find me sweet local treats. They asked why it had to be a three-man job.. I said nothing and just pressed my lips together which made them immediately leave.

"So? What is it?" Milo asked immediately once he picked up. I could see Ethan in the background, his head perking up and immediately walking over to catch the news. I flip the camera around and lift the pregnancy test, keeping it facing away from us.

"I'm scared. I'm terrified." I whisper, my hand starting to tremble.

"Flip it, Brooke! Come on, you can do this!" Milo encouraged. He sounded like he was very close to reaching through the phone and flipping the test himself. I took in a deep breath and flipped the test, seeing only one pink line.
