Many of their days were spent exactly like this, Lana and Bex spent almost every moment together.They learned a lot about each other and themselves talking about everything or nothing,chatting until early hours of the morning.Fred had now practically moved in and was talking care of Lana as her pregnancy progressed. The brunette visited the hospital with her best friend when it was time to have her first ultrasound.As she held her hand Bex couldn't think of a single other person she would rather be with.Her best friend was everything to her and she reminded her of that everyday. As the weeks went on,they both attended each other's appointment making sure the babies were all healthy and the pregnancies were going well.

March 15th
Bexs POV
As I opened my eyes,the sound of birds tweeting outside my window filled the room. Once I had fully woken, I reached over to my phone on the bedside table. Unlocking it, I realise I had received a text from my mum, rolling my eyes I tapped on the message. "Hey darling, I've decided to to catch a flight to LA to come and see you as soon as I can. I have some Christmas presents we weren't able to give you a couple of months ago,can't wait to have a catch,up see you tomorrow xx". Suddenly a wave of panic surged through me, I jumped out of bed threw on some clothes an raced to Lanas room. I knocked on the door frantically and just walked in. Pacing over to a sleeping Lana I shook her and pulled the covers off her, taking her hand I pulled her out of bed and into the hallway. "We have a huge problem" I say to the half asleep brunette staring in confusion. "What,what is it?"she asks slightly annoyed rubbing her eyes. "My mum is on her way here,she's probably already off the plane by now". I say pacing around the hallway my hands on my head. "You dragged me out of bed to tell me your mothers coming?" She stares giving me a look as if I'm crazy. "No you don't understand, she doesn't know I'm pregnant" the words now turning into a shaky tone. "What!" She exclaims. "How could of not told your mother?" She says, looking at me, Disbelief in her eyes. "have you met my mother, do know what she would say if I told her I was pregnant with someone who I was with for three months and now I'm going to raise a child alone?" I panic. "hey your not alone you have me".she reassures."Well you know what I mean".
"so what were to planning to tell her when the baby was born?" She asks. "You can't avoid her forever".
"Well I hadn't thought of that yet, I just can't tell her now" I say my hands on my head, trying to think of a plan.
Just then the doorbell rang. "Oh my god,that's her, quick tell her I'm dead, I might as well be if she sees me"I say running into my bedroom. Laughing a little at her panicked friends comment Lana walks downstairs to greet her best friends mum. As she opens the door,a tall red headed lady stands in the door way holding a basket of gifts. "Oh hello darling" she greets putting the basket down to give her a hug. "How are you" she asks looking down at Lanas stomach in her posh British accent."Wow this baby is getting big, I can't wait to meet him or her".

"I'm very well thank you, Mrs Mader". She says "please call me mum, you and Rebecca are like sisters anyway" she states. "Where is she?" She asks looking around. "Errm she went out to buy breakfast, she was hoping to be back before you got here but she obviously didn't make it" the American lies. "here make yourself comfortable and I'll go check if she's left her phone, it's in her room" Lana states. "Oh I'll come with you, ill leave here presents in there for later".
"No, no" she stumbles over her words."ill carry them you just sit right there and don't move". Looking confused the woman agrees and sits down on the couch. Lana then makes her way up the stairs with the gifs, she balances them trying not to drop anything. She struggles to open the door but finally manages to kick it open. "it's okay Bex, it's just me, you can come out". Lana whispers placing the basket down on the bed. I pear out from the bathroom I was hiding in checking the coast was clear. "What did you tell her?" I ask. "I told her you were dead" Lana says sarcastically. "This is no time for jokes" I wine hitting her lightly on the arm. "I'm kidding, I told her you went out to buy breakfast".
"Okay then I have a little time, we need to figure something out". "Well how about you just tell her" she suggests. I give her a look,and mimic "well how about you just tell her" I hit her on the arm again "I need a real plan. She giggles and takes my hand "how bad can it be, she's your mum she will understand, she seems like a lovely person". "Well you didn't grow, up with her, it was always Rachel this, Rachel that, why can't you be more like Rachel, well Rachel doesn't do that, she thinks I'm a screw up.Maybe she was right" I say sinking down into the bed. "Hey don't say that,your not a screw up,that idiot you called a boyfriend is a screw up,just leaving you like that". She reassures me rubbing my back. Suddenly the silence was broken with the sounds of footsteps coming down the hallway "quick hide" Lana whispers getting up pretending to look for my phone. I sprint into the bathroom shutting the door behind me. "Lana, have you found it?" She questions opening the door. "No looks like she has taken it,I can't find it" she lies again. "Okay, Ill just text her, always late that girl" she exclaims pulling out her phone. After sending the text she waits for a reply, a couple of seconds later her phone buzzes. "Okay she says she's just getting in the car on her way back".
"Okay she shouldn't be long then" Lana states. "You know what's funny, I'm sure I saw her car on the driveway on my way in" she says puzzlement in her voice. "Oh..yes..she errrm...took mine" The now startled Lana manages to reply."Lets go and make some tea while we wait for her, I'm sure she will be back soon"she says lightly kicking the door of the bathroom. Lana then ushers the redhead back downstairs as I breath a sigh of relief.
