Effy's POV
I walked into the choir room on Monday morning with my head held high. I was a lot better spirited than last week, though it still hurt me to talk about Elizabeth. I also had a date with Ryder for the Finchel wedding. So I walked in and took the usual seat at the back of the room next to Kitty and Marley. I was about to talk to them when Mr Shue and Finn came rushing into the choir room, deep in conversation.
"Alright guys this weeks assignment...is Finchel" Mr Shue explained while writing it up on the board. The room cheered.
"It's been a long time coming this wedding but third time is the charm...so this week you'll be practicing songs you can sing at the wedding. I've already picked a few. Marley singing Get It Right. Effy singing Here's To Us. And Ryder and Effy singing Faithfully. The rest of you can go crazy on some other songs" Finn laughed. I wasn't to crazy about singing a song with Ryder about a love affair but I'll take him where I can get him. I imagine this is how cougars start off. Ryder walked over to me.
"So we have to sing Faithfully, you ready to have a love affair?" He asked whilst wiggling his eyebrows. I gave him a weird look.
"You shouldn't be allowed around people" I snapped. He pouted at me. I really couldn't wait to sing that song with him. He laughed and flashed his sexy smile.
"Whatevs. What colour tie should I wear this weekend?" Ryder enquired. Well my dress was purple...so I had no clue...this is where having a gay best friend is a perk.
"How the hell should I know?" I snorted.
"Well you're a girl..." he pointed out. I wanted to slap him.
"Wow...sexist much?" I shouted. Ryder went pale.
"Oh...shit I didn't mean that...I just meant girls usually pick out the guys clothes" Ryder laughed. I shook my head. He was just digging himself a bigger hole.
"Do you hear yourself when you talk?" I enquired. He went even paler.
"I'm girls don't usually listen" Ryder shrieked. What the hell?
"Oh my god" I shrieked.
"I meant listen to me" Ryder groaned. He could be an idiot sometimes. I laughed and pulled him closer.
"I know what you meant" I explained before pecking him on the cheek and leaving room.
---------------------------
(A/N I'M GOING TO SKIP AHEAD TO THE RECEPTION). Me and Sam walked up onto the stage.
"Sam:
When I'm with you baby
I go out of my head
And I just can't get enough
And I just can't get enough
Effy:
All the things you do to me
And everything you said
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
Sam and Effy:
We slip and slide as we fall in love
And I just can't seem to get enough of
Sam:
We walk together
We're walking down the street
Sam and Effy:
And I just can't get enough
And I just can't get enough
Effy:
Everytime I think of you
I know we have to meet
Sam and Effy:
And I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
It's getting hotter, it's a burning love
And I just can't seem to get enough of
Just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
Sam:
And when it rains
You're shining down for me
Sam and Effy:
And I just can't get enough
And I just can't get enough
Just like a rainbow
You know you set me free
And I just can't get enough
And I just can't get enough
You're like an angel and you give me your love
And I just can't seem to get enough of
I just can't get enough (Kitty, Santana and Quinn: Ohhhhh...)

I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
I just can't get enough
It's getting hotter, it's a burning love
And I just can't seem to get enough of" we sung as everyone dance. I waved at Finn, the Ryder. Ryder wandered over and took my hand. He looked super hot in his suit.
"Can I have a slow dance?" Ryder asked.
"Let's not pretend that the only reason you want to dance is to press your body against mine" I laughed. He smiled.
"You see right through me" Ryder chuckled before pulling me close to him. We started dancing to Santana and Mercedes singing The Only Exception. The smell of his fcuk body spray intoxicated my senses. He had worn the same body spray for over a year. Or well nine months anyway.
"So are we back together yet or not?" Ryder asked. Cocky little shit.
"Yet?" I enquired. His eyebrow rose.
"Yet" he said confidently.
"We'll see where the night leads" I said in my seductive voice. He bit his lip and we continued dancing. I spotted Marley centre stage. She looked a little pale, and her face had red streaks, like she had just been crying.
"Marley:
What have I done
I wish I could run
Away from this ship going under
Just trying to help
Hurt everyone else
Now I feel the weight of the world
Is on my shoulders
What can you do when your good isn't good enough
And all that you touch, tumbles down
'Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take
Oh, how many times will it take for me
To get it right
To get it right
Can I start again
With my faith shaken
'Cause I can't go back and undo this
I just have to stay
And face my mistakes
But if I get stronger and wiser
I'll get through this
What can you do when your good isn't good enough
And all that you touch, tumbles down
'Cause my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take for me?
To get it right
So I throw up my fist
Throw a punch in the air
And accept the truth
That sometimes life isn't fair
Yeah, I'll send out a wish
Yeah, I'll send up a prayer
And finally someone will see
How much I care
What can you do when your good isn't good enough
All that you touch, tumbles down
Oh, my best intentions
Keep making a mess of things
I just wanna fix it somehow
But how many times will it take?
Oh, how many times will it take?
To get it right
To get it right" I pulled away from Ryder. He looked at me confused.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Somethings wrong with Marley, can you go an find Kitty?" I asked before running off to find Marley.
---------------------------
Marley's POV
I ran to the room me and Kitty were staying in after singing. Kitty was in the room brushing her hair.
"Marls what's up?" Kitty enquired.
"Nothing...I just...needed some alone time" I sobbed.
"Hang on...I'll get some tissues" Kitty called.
"Oh my god!!" Kitty screamed.
"What?" I enquired, still choking a little. Kitty walked out a second later with something long and white in her hand.
"It's a pregnancy test. And it's positive" Kitty shrieked.
"Oh my god Effy was using the bathroom before" I added. That very second Effy walked in and Kitty dropped the stick into the bin.
"Hey Marls you alright?" She asked.
"Super fine now let's get back downstairs" I laughed.
---------------------------
No One's POV
Kitty was wandering around the reception. She could process the news she had just received. Effy was pregnant. Was it Ryder's? Or Jackson's? Or someone else entirely? At the moment she just needed to find someone to talk to. And conveniently she walked straight into Ryder.
"Hey, have you seen Effy? She told me to find you" Ryder explained.
"Yeah I found her" she replied. Did Ryder need to know right now? Yes he did. Was it Kitty's duty to tell him? Damn straight.
"Ryder can I talk to you in private?" Kitty enquired. He put down his drink and followed me to the edge of the room.
"What's up?" he asked with too much pep on his face.
"What you're about to hear may change you relationship with Effy forever" Kitty sighed.
"Go on" Ryder prompted.
"We found a pregnancy test in our room...it was positive" Kitty explained. Ryder went white.
"Ryd?" Kitty asked. A giant smile stretched across his face.
"Effy's pregnant?" Ryder laughed. He was taking this way too well.
"I'm going to be a dad?" he smiled.
"Your girlfriends only sixteen and we aren't supposed to know" Kitty snarled.
"And now for Finchel's first dance to their song Faithfully sung by Effy and Ryder" Mr Shue announced. Ryder turned and went on stage. He smiled broadly when he saw Effy, was she really pregnant?
"Ryder:
Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You're on my mind
Effy:
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sending all my love
Along the wire
Both:
They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music man
Ain't always what it's supposed to be
Ryder:
Oh, girl, you stand by me
Effy:
I'm forever yours
Faithfully
Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Ryder:
Through space and time
Always another show
Wondering where I am
Lost without you
Both:
And being apart
Ain't easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy of rediscovering you
Oh, girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours
Faithfully" All of the New Directions joined in, the graduates as well.
"Effy(Everyone):
(Whooa, oh-oh-ooh
Whooa, oh-oh-ooh, oh
Whooa, oh-oh-oh, oh-whoooooa-oh)
Faithfully
I'm still yours
Effy(Ryder):
I'm forever yours
(Ever yours)
Both:
Faithfully"
---------------------------
Ryder's POV
After that me and Effy snuck up to my room and stripped down. All I was left wearing was a tie. I had missed her so much and now we about to have sex...last time this happened I guess the condom must have broken or something. I stopped the lip lock we were in.
"Wait...wait" I laughed. She sighed.
"What?" She groaned. I laughed and kissed her lips again.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I enquired. I wanted to know why she hadn't told me right away.
"Tell you what?" Effy enquired.
"That you were prego?" I said. Her face screwed up.
"Excuse me?!" she shrieked pushing me off her body. She jumped up and pulled my shirt on. I pulled her onto my lap.
"You don't have to lie I'm fine with it" I explained.
"Great, but I'm not pregnant" she snapped.
"That wasn't your prego test in Kitty and Marley's bathroom?" I enquired. She shook her head.
"Then who's was it?" I asked.
"Do you really want to discuss pregnant chicks or have sex?" She asked. Fair point. I flipped her onto her back and dived on top of her. She laughed as I did so.
---------------------------
Effy's POV
Ryder fell asleep after the second time so I pulled on a pair of converses and a belt around the shirt I wearing, which was Ryder's and way too big and headed across the corridor to Kitty's and Marley's room. I heard arguing inside so I just walked straight in. Kitty and Marley were arguing and my name was coming up a lot and the word pregnant.
"Guys I'm not pregnant" I snapped making both of them turn at a break neck speed to me.
"You were the one who used the bathroom right before we found the test" Kitty explained.
"Whoa Marley used the bathroom after me" I remembered. I turned to see Marley in tears.
"Marley are you...?" Kitty asked. Marley choked, her tears were like waterfalls but she managed to nod. Me and Kitty both wrapped our arms around her. How could it be Marley? She was the good girl. The innocent one.
