CORIE'S POV
*ONE MONTH LATER*
I am currently one month and 3 weeks pregnant. Pryce still doesn't know and I just don't want to tell him yet. My stomach is getting a little bump but it just looks like I'm getting fat. It's been a struggle hiding my doctor's appointments from him being so that I want him to be apart of it but I'm just nervous.
I was chilling with my parents today, since Pryce was working on some new songs with Jawan and Dylan and he was also meeting up with my manager to try and make shit happen.
"Mommy and daddy. I have some news." I look up at them as we all sat at the dining room table, eating lunch.
"Are you pregnant?" My mom says as her eyes lit up.
"Yes." I say with a smile creeping up on my face.
"Ahhhh!" My mom jumps and screams, pulling me up from my seat, squeezing me so tight that I'm pretty sure I passed out of a second.
"Mommy I can't breath." I struggle to get out. She lets me go and kisses my cheek.
"I told you, didn't I tell you?"
"Yes mommy." I say laughing.
"Wow, I can't believe my baby girl is having a baby." My dad says coming over to hug me.
"I can't believe there's a little baby growing inside you." My mom says touching my stomach making baby sounds.
"How did Pryce take it?" My dad asked.
I sit back down and look at the both of them, "Pryce doesn't exactly know yet. I've kept it a secret for a month now."
"A month? Corie, honey you have to tell him. I mean it is his baby, right?" My moms says sitting down across from me, grabbing my hand.
"Of course it's his baby, mom. Im just scared to tell him."
"That boy loves you and he's gonna love you even more once he finds out, you're carrying his child." My dad says.
"Are you sure?"
He nods, "that's how I was with your mom and I can tell that Pryce is gonna be the same way."
I nod taking in their words. Im gonna prepare a nice dinner tonight and let him know.
"I'll tell him tonight. I promise."
"Good." They both say nodding.
"I can't wait to meet him or her. Oooh I hope you have twins." My mom says. My eyes went wide at the thought of pushing out two babies.
"Mom no, that's too much. And plus. I went to my doctors appointment and they say they only see one embryo growing." I say smiling.
"I'm gonna pray tonight. To make sure you have two babies." My mom says cheesing before walking out the room.
"I hope she knows that she will be taking care of them." I tell my dad and we laugh.

PRYCE'S POV
"So Pryce, you know I represent Corie, and I make sure everything is done right by my girl and I will do the same for you and your friends." Miss. Z tells us.
"We appreciate it." Jawan says.
"So, do y'all have any questions or concerns?"
"If we were to do concerts and stuff like that, how much would you get of the money?" I ask her.
"10 percent."
"How soon can you book us in the studio?" Dylan asks.
"I could probably make it happen by next week. Just give me time to contact my people and I will definitely be contacting you guys."
"Sounds legit. Thank you so much." I say standing up shaking her hand. Jawan and Dylan follow my actions before we leave out her office.
We made it outside of the office and walked to my car.
"Yo tell Corie we appreciate her for hooking us up." Jawan says while closing the passenger door.
"Of course."
I drove us to McDonald's and pulled up to the drive-through, ordering all of our food, before pulling up to the window and paying.
"What y'all wanna do now?" Dylan says from the backseat.
"Wanna chill at my house?" I ask and they both agree.
We pull up to my house and Jawan and Dylan make themselves at home while I go upstairs to change into some sweats.
"Where the hell are my t-shirts I brought." I thought to myself as I search my suitcase that I have yet to unpack and it's been awhile now since we've been home but Corie hasn't unpacked either , so I'm not alone in this.
I check Corie's suticase and I find a bag but it wasn't Forever 21. I open the bag to see something wrapped in there. Maybe it's a present for me, I'll just peep. I unwrapped the present and I find pregnancy test. Two at that. Confused as fuck I examine it and I see it has two lines on both of them. I walk downstairs to the guys, hopefully they can help me register what the hell is going on.
"Y'all? What does it mean when there's two lines on a pregnancy test?" I say examining the two sticks.
"It usually mean pregnant." I look up at Dylan and my mouth got dry.
"Fuck me," I say running my hands through my curls."I think Corie's pregnant."
"Word? Congratulations man, you gonna be a daddy." Jawan says walking over to dab me up. I left him hanging, but not on purpose, I was just really shocked right now.
"I need some air." I say dropping the sticks and walking outside to sit on the porch.
I pull out my phone to call Corie to see where she was at.
*PHONE CALL*

Baby🔑🔐💦: hello?
ME: hey baby, when you getting home?"
Baby🔑🔐💦: I'm actually leaving my parents house now, why? Do you need something?"
ME: nah, no, I just... miss you that's all.
Baby🔑🔐💦: okay well I'll see you in a little bit.
ME: okay, bye.

*END OF PHONE CALL*

I put my head in between my legs and thought about how so much shit is about change. I'm not ready to be a dad and I'm pretty sure Corie isn't ready to give up her modeling career just yet.
"Yo Pryce, we'll see you later man and congrats on the baby." Jawan and Dyaln come out and walk to their cars since they drove here to my house before we went to meeting.
"Thanks. I'll talk to y'all later." I walk back inside and pick up the sticks, those two lines mocking me. I placed them back where I found them and went to the kitchen to get my food. As I sat on the couch, I heard the door open and Corie comes from around the corner.
"Hey," she says while sitting on the couch placing her head on my legs,"I'm so tired."
"You've been tired a lot lately, is there anything going on?" I felt her tense up and my plan here is to just throw hints that I know about the pregnancy until she finally tells me.
"No not all. It's probably just stress."
"Stressing about what?"
"Um I don't know, just getting modeling jobs and stuff." I nod my head and lean down to kiss her.
"You know how I said I wanted to marry you and I wanted you to have my kids."
She nods.
"I was thinking that we... should... start... making those kids now." I say as I place kisses on her neck and face. She pushes me off her, whining for me to stop.
She sits up and looks at me and says, "You know, don't you?"
I play dumb, "Know what?"
"Don't act fucking dumb Pryce, you know that I'm pregnant."
"You are?"
She rolls her eyes and runs her hands through her thick curls, "How long have you known?"
"For about 30 minutes. How long have you known?" I ask her.
"A month." If I wasn't so close to her, I wouldn't have heard what she said.
"A month? You've been pregnant for a month and didn't tell me?"
"I was scared. I didn't know how you would take it. If it makes it any better, I was gonna tell you tonight."
"What the hell are you talking about? Corie we not in high school anymore, you are a grown ass woman and I'm a grown ass man. We maybe young but we both are doing well for ourselves and we have a stable home."
"So you're excited?"
"Im scared as hell but yea, sure, I'm excited."
She smiles and leans over to me, planting a kiss on my lips.
"I'm happy to be starting a family with you. I love you Pryce." She says stroking my cheek.
"I love you more and I love you." I direct the last part to her stomach.
"I'm happy now. So, my next appointment is in 2 weeks, are you gonna come?"
"Of course." I plant a kiss on her lips before digging back into my food.
I couldn't believe the love of my life was carrying my child. I'm scared of course and shit is gonna change but I'll sacrifice for my family.
