I look at the test the lays in the palms of my hands. It can't be. I squint my eyes at, making sure what I was seeing is correct.

Two pink lines are embedded into the test. "Lavender" i jump and quickly shove the test in the bathroom drawer

"Lavender ?" I shut the drawer frantically "I-in here"

The door swings open revealing jack. "Hey baby"he smiles pulling me into a hug.

I smile and hug him back. "Dinner?" He asks leaving the bathroom, going back into the bedroom.  I follow him, "yeah I'm Starving"

He lets out a small laugh and leaves the bedroom, me close behind.

We arrive into the kitchen, except jack strays away heading toward the fridge.  I sigh and walk to the bar taking a seat on the stool.

"Hey, how's grilled cheese" jack asks shuffling around in the fridge. "Fine"

The two pink lines float around my brain, consuming my thoughts. What will jack do? what will we do?

The fridge closes, bringing me back to reality. "You alright baby" jack asks slamming the cabinet, giving me an instant headache. Already mood swings?

"Just fine"

I love how caring he is, he's the best thing I could ask for. Jack and I got married around a year back. Nothing much a small park wedding, only me him, my sister, Ramona and his two friends jack and Sammy.

Best day of my life.


"Jack" I ask removing my head from his shoulder. "Hmm"

I sigh and sit up, preparing my self for the news I'm about to give him.

"I uh- have something to tell you"

His posture shifts along with his face. "Your not going back home are you" he asks color draining from his face.

I shake my head quickly, now way in hell Im going back there. He sighs in relief resting his head on the back of the couch.

I continue, "jack I'm pregnant" I admit looking away scared of his reaction. "Lavender"

I slowly look back at him, his  posture has changed once more he was now sitting up, showing no emotion.

"Are-" he stops clearing his throat "are you serious?"

I nod "yes" I mumble looking down into my lap. I feel the couch shift, and jack take a deep breath.

I look up, my hear fluttering once I see that jack is smiling. "Holy shit this is awesome" he says pulling me into his lap. I laugh and lay my head on his chest.

"Jesus lavender were having a baby" he mumbles putting his chin on top of my head.

I nod my head slowly were having a baby.


"It's finally all done" jack days letting out a deep breath. I laugh looking into the room I front of us.

I scan the pale walls, the little white crib the shelves of toys and stuffed animals. Jack insisted we fill the room with stuffed animals, maybe even a little to much.

"Wait I need to fix this" I says taking my head off jacks head. Jack lets out an exaggerated groan.

I shake my head, the droopy elephant sitting on the shelf was driving me crazy. I walk toward the elephant, only for jack to groan again.

"You such pain in the ass" he joking groans. I laugh and roll my eyes, before standing up on my tippy toes fixing the stuffed toy.

"There" I mumble, now back on my feet. I gently lay my hand on my stomach, admiring the dainty room.

My stomach erupts in pain, taking me back a little. "Jeez baby kickin hard today" I mumble walking toward the door.

I freeze once I feel sleek thing trickle down my leg. "Jack" I yell once I realize what's happening.

I hear footsteps rapidly approach, jack then appears in the doorframe wide eyed.

"What what's wrong" he asks concern filling his eyes. I can't do anything but show a smile, tears pricking at my eyes, stupid hormones.

"Jack it's time"

"Mrs.gilinsky only a few more pushes" the doctor yells earning a groan from me. I was beyond exhausted, and pain filled.

"Come one baby can do it" jack soothingly mumbles, tracing circles on my hand.

I give him a glare before hissing in pain. "Alright lavender one big push" the doctor tells.

I nod and push, giving it my all. I yell in pain, as I continue to push. I hear a cry and the doctor cheer.

"It's a girl" he yells holding the second old baby in the air. I smile wide, my little baby girl. I look up at jack, his eyes are wide admiring her, his eyes watery.

The doctor quickly cleans her up before placing a freshly wrapped baby in my arms.

"Oh my god" I mumble at the small baby. "Jesus she beautiful" jack says grabbing her tiny fingers. Indeed she is.

I look at the little baby that was sleeping the crib. My baby to be exact.

"Hello Caroline" I mumble gently picking her, holding her into my Chest. Me and jack decided to name her after my mother.

Caroline Rose Gilinsky.

"Hey baby" I here jacks voice approach me behind, it not long before his arms snake around my waist. He puts his chin on my shoulder looking down at her.

"Hello Caroline" he coos "we did good baby" he says now looking at me. I nod slowly, smiling. "Yes we did"

Jack places a sweet kiss on my lips before looking back down a Caroline.

I couldn't ask for anything else in the world. Hell jack and Caroline are my world now.and who would've thought that it would have all started with me falling in love with a bad boy, well a criminal to exact.
