*Previously*

Zoe and Alfie had some very scandalous you know what... 5 weeks later Zoe is being sick, what could this mean?

................................................................................................................................

Zoe POV

I suddenly felt violently ill, I quickly changed from sitting on the toilet to hanging my head over it. Alfie after me and held my hair back; it mustn't have been very pleasant for him. I turned to Alfie, "Oh Alfie, you don't think..." I burst into tears with out even being able to finish my sentence. "Shh, shh," he held me close to his chest and comforted me. "I guess we don't know unless we take a test."

I rushed out to the local pharmacy to buy a pregnancy test. A hurricane was blowing inside my head and I couldn't stop thinking about all the bad things that might happen if I was pregnant, it was only until I exited the pharmacy that I actually thought about all the good things that could happen. I've always wanted to be a mum, Alfie and I are both mature adults with a stable income so we would definitely be able to afford it. The more and more I thought about it I actually realised the goods outweighed the bads, and I found myself excited for what the future may hold if the test came back positive.

As I got back home Alfie was waiting at the door for me, "Alf, I'm so sorry I got in such a flap this morning, I've been thinking about it and have realised it actually wouldn't be such a bad thing if I were pregnant, in fact I would actually be rather glad if I am." "Oh my goodness Zoe, I'm so glad you said that, I feel exactly the same way about this situation." he replied with a loving smile.

"It's time Alfie."

Alfie POV

The door closed behind her. "Good luck I guess." I tell her comfortingly. I can hear that cute giggle through the door. I feel the sweat trickling down my back, I have never been this nervous in my entire life. The toilet flushes and I can hear crying through the door. "Zo, you alright? Open the door." The door creeks open and a tiny little Zoe falls into my arms, half crying, half laughing. "So..." I ask, hungry to know the answer. She holds up the stick.

2 lines. Positive.

"AGHHH!!! I'M SO HAPPY" I pick Zoe up and spin her around. When I put her back on the floor we both collapse into a heap of tears and happiness, and hope that the moment will never end.

*The Next Day*

Zoe POV

The day after finding out the news, Alfie and I head to the doctor's to confirm the pregnancy.

"Miss Sugg?" The receptionist calls out from her appointment sheet. "Follow me please." Alfie and I are lead down a corridor which is full of other pregnant women, I see one woman who must be nearly nine months, she has a huge baby bump and seeing her makes me excited for the months that lie ahead. I turn to Alfie "Isn't it crazy that in about nine months, I'll be a big huge pregnant lady?" "A big huge beautiful pregnant lady." He smiles and kisses my forehead. "Please wait here, the doctor will be with you shortly." "Thank you" we say in unison and giggle together.

Ten minutes later the doctor pops his head around the door and invites us into the room. He instructs me to lie down on the bed and tells Alfie to stand by me. "Okay, Miss Sugg. This may be a little bit cold..." I shiver and giggle nervously as he places the gel on my stomach. He was one of those doctors who has a big smiley, friendly face and you wouldn't really be surprised if he had about ten kids. "Okie dokie, I think if we move this down slightly we should be able to see your baby if it's here." I grip Alfie's hand tightly and he looks at me reassuringly as if to say everything will be fine. "And... there we are. That's your baby. It is obviously very small and you can hardly see it at the moment but if you look where my finger is pointing, that little white blob, that is your baby! Now, would you like a photo today or would you like to wait a little longer until the baby has developed slightly more?" "Today." Alfie and I say simultaneously. The doctor smiles and nods. I break down in tears for what feels like the fiftieth time this week. "It just didn't feel real until now, Alf." "I know darling, I know," Alfie smiled at me.

When we returned home we both decided now would be a good idea to phone our close friends and family to tell them the news. I was in charge of phoning mum, dad, Joe, Mark, Louise, Jim and Tanya. Alfie was in charge of phoning his parents, Poppy, Sean, Marcus, the Saccone Joly family and Tyler. We decided we wouldn't actually tell the viewers until the baby was really here because we wanted a stress free non-hate pregnancy.

Fortunately, the baby is looking healthy! I can't wait until we are 10 weeks, because we get to find out the gender!
