Keegan's pov

As time goes in I just get bigger and bigger. I never weighed over one hundred twenty three pounds. I guess that's what happens when you're pregnant. Austin has been really supportive this entire time. Oh not to mention I'm moving again since it's getting closer to my due date. I'm becoming a coach potato and I hate it!

I rolled out of bed and stood in the mirror. I want to say I'm about five and a half months. I touched my stomach. I went in the kitchen and made a cup of tea. I sat outside talking to Wesley and Asa. They make me so happy. Austin wants them to hurry up and get here because he hates it when I get sick almost every night but he did this to me so he feels very guilty. I went to visit my father at work. "Hi Keegan," he said. "Hey." "How are you?" "Tired and hungry. Do you want to go get breakfast?" "I would love to. Just give me a sec." I nodded. Once Steve was ready we went to get breakfast then sat in his car talking. "I talked to Austin," he said. "And?" "I heard you guys are back together." I nodded. "We're slowly trying to fix things." "So when are you moving?" "A few months before the twins show up." "Are you excited?" "I'm also scared." "Why?" "I'm eighteen and I'm having twins. My life just got started and now I'm becoming a parent." "Don't make it seem like a bad thing." "I'm not bu--." Some guy tried to hijack Steve's car. "Gimme all your money!" Steve sighed. "Not again." "What do you mean not a again?" "I will shoot you!" "Dad?" "Keegan continue." "Dad he has a gun and is pointing at your head!" "Your daughter goin' to watch you bleed!" Steve got out the car and beat the guy up then took him to the police station.

When he came back to the cat he looked at me. "What did you mean by not again," I asked? "When I was seeing Catherine some guy tired to hijack my car and I had to do the exact same thing I did now." I nodded. "Where were we before we were rudely interrupted?" "I'm not making it seem like a bad thing but I never would've thought I'd be pregnant at eighteen." "I never thought I would've became a parent at the age of 33 with two children." I smiled. Steve had a point. After breakfast Steve had to get back to the station so I just went home and got dressed for work. I walked down to the surf shop. Lucas was there. I like working with him. He funny. "Hello my whittle cashier," he said. "Your on the other cashier." "I'm actually working in the back today." "I don't get to work in the back haha." "Lucky you!" Lucas rubbed my stomach then went in the back. My shift went by fast but my feet were killing me. I walked home talking to Austin. "Hey baby girl," he said. "Hi." "How was your day?" "Great my feet hurt." "I have something to tell you." "What is it?" "I didn't get into the fire academy." "I'm sorry babe." "It's not terrible news but I did get into the police academy." "I hate you for making me feel bad for you." "Steve pulled a few strings." "That was nice." "I'll see you in a few I bought food." "Ok." "I love you baby girl." "I love you too."

When I got to my building I greeted Andrew then went to check the mail and went upstairs. I had a bunch of junk mail so I threw it in the trash. Maddison also sent back my spare key. I stuck it in a drawer in the kitchen the showered and went to sleep. While I was asleep there was a knock on the door. I got out of bed and unlocked it. Austin walked in as I crawled back to bed. "Hey baby girl," he said. "Hmm?" "Come eat." "Sleep then eat." "Eat then sleep please?" "No." I closed my eyes and attempted going back to sleep but Austin just came over and basically dragged me out of bed. I sat at the breakfast bar. I played with my food for a while. I'm so drained. "What's wrong," Austin asked? "I'm tired. I want to sleep." I left my food on the counter and went back to my bed. So glad I have tomorrow off. I laid I bed as Austin walked pass. He changed his clothes and went to the gym. I went back to sleep. After my nap I sat at the breakfast bar and ate then took a shower. I put on a pair of leggings and a sports bra. I sat on the couch and did some online shopping for the babies.

I put on a hoodie and a pair of slippers and went for a walk. I walked all the way to the end of the beach. I sat in a chair and looked out at the ocean. The moon reflected onto the ocean making it seem a lot brighter. As I sat there I thought about a lot. A lot of people that I know says I over think sometime but I don't think so. Others say I think too much. Honestly it's just that with so much that happened and so much that's going it makes thinks of how unlucky and lucky I've been. When I lived in California I grew up with my mom but she never really home. I wasn't really allowed to see Isaac unless I snook out. Always homeschooled. I'm also starting to realize I never actually loved Ryan. It sounds bad so let me explain. Ryan and I had a physical attraction and yes we cared deeply about each other but it's was move of a lust than a love. When I came to Hawaii I never would've thought I'd be kidnapped few months later. I also never thought my own mother could do it to me and I think that's what hurts the most. I've had multiple surgeries. I also met Steve. He's the greatest. I couldn't ask for a better father. Now here I am sitting on a beach five and a half months pregnant with twins by the guy I love. What I'm trying to say is when life isn't going as planned just wait. Things may turn out better than expected.

As I sat outside I heard foot steps. I turned around to see Isaac. "I knew I'd find you here," he said. "Why were you looking for me?" "Austin called saying you're not answering your phone and you weren't at you place." I nodded as I hugged him. Isaac sat in the sand next to and just looked at me. "What," I said. "Nothing I find it interesting how much you haven't changed." "What do you mean?" "Remember when we were kids and mom would piss you off so you'd sneak out the back window and go sit on the bridge?" I chuckled. "Yeah." "She would come to my house and I never told her where your spot was but I would come get you. In Hawaii I can find you at the end of a beach just sitting there." "You changed a lot since we came here." "I know and it sucks." "Change can be good." Isaac looked down and played with the sand. "What's wrong?" "Just thinking about what you said." I rubbed his head. "I never would've thought I'd come here and be apart of a real family." "Well that's why I like it here. We have each other but we also have Nate, Steve, Danno and everyone else." "Don't forget about the two little guys you're carrying." "Considering the fact they're babies I don't think we can count on the as much as they can count on us." "If you ever need help with them call me." I nodded.

Isaac and I talked until the sun started to rise. He walked me home. "Are you coming up," I asked? "Uh no I have to get home to Sarah." "Ok." "Thanks for talking with me." "No problem bro." "I love ya little sis." "I love you to Isaac." I hugged him then went upstairs. Austin was sitting on the couch. He sprung up and hugged me. "Are you ok," he asked? "Yes, I was with Isaac." "You could've called." "I just needed to disconnect for a while and I really needed that time with my brother." Austin kissed my forehead. "You're home that's all that matters." I went in my room then to the bathroom. I took a shower then went in my room and got dressed. I put on a pair of work out shorts and my shirt that my father got my when he went to the mainland. I sat on the couch with Austin. We messed around for a while. "I have an idea," Austin said. "What?" "Let's go on a boat." "I'll pass. I want to spend my day off in bed or on this couch." "All you ever do it is go to work and come home then you eat sleep vomit and the process repeats." "Well I'm sorry I'm pregnant." "Get out the house and get fresh air." "You can go get fresh air by yourself." Austin sighed as he stood up. "Where are you going?" "To the gym." "Are you coming back later?" "Maybe." "Are you seriously upset because I want to spend my day off in the house?" "I'm not upset but I want to spend time with you before the twins get here." "Can you look at things from my perspective please?" "I get it I do. You're pregnant." "You're an ass." "What now?" "Just go."

Austin grabbed his keys and left. I cannot believe that we just that disagreement. Guys don't understand what it's like to a female. I curled up in a ball on the couch and took a nap when I woke up Austin was walking out of the shower. "Hi," I said softly. "Hey." Austin got dressed then went in the kitchen. I watched him. "Are we not going to speak," I asked? "It's up to you." I sighed as I got off the couch and went in my room. I closed the curtains to my bed and laid down. Austin opened them. I climbed out of bed and closed them back. "Keegan," he said. "What?" He poked his head through the curtains. "I'm sorry." "Do you even know why you're apologizing?" "I'm sorry for getting frustrated because you just wanted to sit in the house." "That's not even why I'm mad at you. I'm mad at you because you don't understand." "You're right I don't so help me to understand. Can I come in?" I shook my head yes as Austin stepped through the curtains.

We laid down as I crawled onto his chest. I started to explain the things I got through while pregnant. He felt bad for wanting me to go out but I also had to understand why he wants to spend time with me. No pun intended but literally it's just baby steps from here.
