Two and a half months later

"It's okay, baby." Zack coos, holding back my hair at six in the morning. "Let it out."

"I don't understand." I whimper. "I'm never sick on tour, and I don't have a fever or a headache."

"Do you think you might be-?"

"We haven't had sex since our wedding night, I don't think so? You used a condom." I whisper.

It would explain the mood swings.

"It's still possible. We should see a doctor."

"Alright. Let's do it later, but we can't tell Alex or anyone where we're going."

"Okay. I'll check and see where offices are and make an appointment, okay? Do you need anything?"

"Will you cuddle with me on the couch?" I ask. "After I brush my teeth and rinse my mouth?"

"Yes baby, anything you want." He kisses my head and helps me up, but then walks out. I don't like him watching me as I brush my teeth.

I may want kids, but I didn't know if we were ready for this or not.

I come back and sit on the couch, and Zack nuzzles his head into my neck, "I have gained a little weight, latly, haven't I?" I ask.

"I'm not aloud to answer that, but no, you haven't."

"Are you sure?" I huff.

"I'm sure baby."

"Zacky, will you sing to me?" I beg, "Please."

"My head is haunting me and my heart feels like a ghost
I need to feel something, cause I'm still so far from home
Cross your heart and hope to die
Promise me you'll never leave my side." His voice sings quietly. I run my fingers through his messy curly hair.

"Show me what I can't see when the spark in my eyes is gone
You got me on my knees, I'm your one man cult
Cross my heart and hope to die
Promise you I'll never leave your side

"Cause I'm telling you, you're all I need
I promise you you're all I see
Cause I'm telling you, you're all I need
I'll never leave

"So you can drag me through Hell
If it meant I could hold your hand
I will follow you cause I'm under your spell
And you can throw me to the flames
I will follow you, I will follow you

"Come sink into me and let me breathe you in
I'll be your gravity, you be my oxygen
So dig two graves cause when you die
I swear I'll be leaving by your side

"So you can drag me through Hell
If it meant I could hold your hand
I will follow you cause I'm under your spell
And you can throw me to the flames
I will follow you
So you can drag me through Hell
If it meant I could hold your hand
I will follow you cause I'm under your spell
And you can throw me to the flames

"I will follow you, I will follow you
I will follow you, I will follow you
So you can drag me through Hell
If it meant I could hold your hand
I will follow you cause I'm under your spell
And you can throw me to the flames
I will follow you, I will follow you." He sounded sleepy, and I don't blame him. I had accidentally woken him up with my throwing up this morning.

"You can go back to sleep, baby. I'll call for an appointment."

"I already did. You have one at ten. It's a twenty four hour clinic."

"Well that's cool, but get some rest. I'm sorry I had woken you up."

"In sickness and in health, remember?"
