Just Me And My Girl (Part 2)

Spencer sat there looking at the pregnancy test. She felt like it was mocking her.

"So?" Hanna asked, but Spencer couldn't speak.

Hanna looked over her shoulder. "Oh my god. Spencer you're pregnant!" Hanna said clapping her hands.

Spencer began to cry.

"Honey, don't cry, it's going to be OK" she said trying to reassure her.

"Can you pick Chloe up from her art class and bring her here? Tell her I had a work thing?" Spencer asked sobbing softly.

"Of course" Hanna said as Spencer went out to her car.

"Are you alright to drive?" she asked worriedly.

"Yes, Hanna, I will be fine" she said as she walked out the door.

Spencer dove back to her house and sat on the couch despondently.

Pregnant. She shook her head still not believing it. She had assumed that Chloe would be it for her. She and Toby had briefly considered having another child when Chloe was about five. A month later he was back globe hopping taking his very expensive pictures. Spencer had always been too proud to say the way that she felt. She wanted to ask him to stay so they could be a family. She had wanted more babies and a daddy for Chloe but any man she dated that was ready for that type of commitment quickly got shown the door. Colin and Wren were the only men she had ever been serious about. She'd been engaged to Wren when Chloe was 6. They had planned to get married and have babies. It was the happiest Spencer had ever been, aside from when she was with Toby. Wren had called off the wedding though when he'd overheard her telling the girls that she was basically settling for Wren because Toby wasn't ready to commit. Spencer had been devastated and Toby had come to town for a couple of weeks to comfort her, then he was gone again. Spencer was pretty sure the way Colin had been acting that he was about to propose. That was gone now too. Spencer knew she was putting off calling Toby. She knew she needed to she was pregnant with his child.

The phone ringing had shook her from her thoughts. It was Toby.

"Hey!" she said with fake enthusiasm.

"Hi" he said "I have some big news"

"Oh?" she inquired.

"Yeah, I have a new address because well I bought a new house" Toby said "I'd like to have you and Chloe over for dinner tonight, there's some things we need to discuss"

"Oh wow!" Spencer said "well we'll definitely be there"

"Great" he replied. "I'll see you about 6 then"

"Ok" she said hanging up. Spencer was stunned. Toby had bought a house. He had had the same bachelor pad apartment since Chloe was 6 years old. Spencer couldn't stop from wondering. Maybe he was finally ready to settle down. Maybe they were finally going to be a family.

Her phone pinged and she looked to see Toby had texted her the address. Spencer decided after dinner she'd find a moment alone with Toby to tell him and decide how to go about telling Chloe. She was terrified of telling Chloe. She didn't know if she would be happy, sad, jealous? She'd been an only child for 15 years. Now all that was changing.

Spencer went to Hanna's to pick up Chloe.

"So what did Toby say?" Hanna whispered as they pretended to have coffee and gossip.

"We're having dinner at his new place tonight, I'm going to tell him then" Spencer whispered.

"Hey mom" Chloe said coming into the kitchen.
