I wiped my eyes as I heard the door close. I looked around and saw that Caelan was gone. Turning to my father I bit my lip and felt tears spring to my eyes once more. "No more tears!" My father said quickly and I giggled. "He'll come back. Don't worry" he said and I nodded.

"Willow? Where are you?" Jasper called out from the hall. I gasped and stared at the door.

"Tell him. Don't let him know that anything's different" my father said before kissing my cheek and pushing me towards the door. The door opened just before I hit it and I stumbled back onto the floor. I groaned and rubbed my lower back which seemed to have jarred.

"You've been crying" Jasper stated. I looked up at him and used every fibre of my self control to not roll my eyes at him.

"Happy tears honey. Happy tears" I said smiling. His expression changed and he helped me up. "I have something to tell you" I said excitedly.

"Come then and explain" Jasper said grinning and lead me back to our bedroom. We walked in and I sat on the bed and patted the bed beside me. He sat down and gazed at me. Waiting.

I bit my lip nervously before standing up. I walked over to the wall before turning and walking back. I opened my mouth to tell him but nothing came out. I sighed and shook my head before I began pacing again. "Come on sweetie. Tell me" Jasper said. I turned away and closed my eyes as I kept myself calm.

I turned back and opened my mouth. What came out made no sense and was too confusing for even me to understand. "We got married two months ago. Yes?" I didn't let him answer "That day you told me something" And messed up my brain "I said no but things changed and then I said yes. I became queen and you became king. Jordan and Tristan decided to stay but they kept complaining about you so I locked them up with Saph" Sorry boys "We let my father out as long as he worked but I don't speak to him. You got me a horse! But I don't really like Steel, we don't get along. Actually I don't get along with animals in general. I love them and all but do you remember Miss White's class and I hit the bir-"

"Willow. Pay attention" Jasper said.

I took a deep breath and smiled "Of course. What I'm trying to say is that I'm... We're.... Ummm"

"I don't have time for this" Jasper sighed.

"Baby" I said quickly.

"Yes?"

"Not you" I snapped "Baby" I repeated more softly and placed a hand on my stomach.

His eyes widened and traveled to my stomach. He walked over slowly, his gaze never leaving my stomach. "Baby" he said softly and placed his hand over mine. He finally looked at me and smiled. "Come we must tell everyone" he said and took my hand. He ran out of the room and I was pulled behind him like a toy. I frowned. How long did I have to keep this up?

We ran into a room where Belle and Adam sat. They were having breakfast and my stomach grumbled, reminding me I hadnt eaten. "Mum! Dad! Willow's-"

Adam chuckled cutting his son off. "Pregnant? We know"

I frowned "How?"

"We had fairies checking up on you since you became queen. They told us last week" Adam chuckled and Belle stood up and walked away. I was tempted to follow her but I stayed where I was.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Jasper asked.

"Where's the fun in that?" Adam laughed. Jasper glared at him. "Come on. You're not going to banish me like you did your sisters"

"You banished Carrie and Izzy!" I asked shocked. I was about to ask what kind of brother does that and then I realised. It's the ones that kill their brothers.
