It's been about a month since everything happened. I'm currently sitting on the bathroom floor, feeling sick and really dizzy. I think I know whats wrong but I'm not sure. I wash my mouth, then get dressed. I grab the diaper bag making sure everything is in it before grabbing the Musketeers, which is what everyone calls them. I load them in their car seats before heading to the store.

I grab one of the twin seater carts, and place Bailey and Ryder in the seats, and Bentley in the cart. I go through the list of groceries and start picking them up and placing them in the cart. As I'm walking towards check out, I remember something else I needed.

I quickly walk over to the pregnancy test isle and grab one of every kind, so 7 in total. As I toss them in the cart and walk away, I see Brantley a couple isles over in the shampoo section. I quickly try to leave without the kids seeing him, but of course they do. They scream daddy and he turns around making his way over to us.

I try to quickly hide the tests but I realize it's impossible, let's hope he doesn't see them.

"Hey kiddos!" He says, kissing them on their foreheads. "Evening Dakota."

"Hey." I reply.

He looks toward Brantley and sees one of the tests.

"Are you..?" He asks.

"Don't know yet." I reply

"Is it mine..?" He asks. I just stare at him.

"You may have hooked up, but I'm not a cheater. We're still married right now." I tell him.

"Oh.. well, can I come by later? I need to show you something." He says.

"Yea whatever." I tell him, going to check out.

When I get home all 3 of them are asleep, so I lay them in their beds before walking out.

I go to the bathroom and start taking the tests. My worst nightmare.

They all read. I stare at them still in shock. I come out of my trance by a knock at the door.

I open it to see Brantley. I let him in before closing the door.

"Here, watch this." He says. I look at the video on his phone, it's of him and amber.

She leans in to kiss him and he pushes her away. He turns around and she slips something in his drink. He takes a sip, and I stop watching it.

This changes everything.

"Wait how do I know this was that night, or not staged?" I ask.

"Look at the details." He says.

It says the date and time. I set the phone down.

"Well..." I start, want to be a dad again?" I ask him.

"Wait..." he says, "oh my god your pregnant again!!!" He says.

"Yea..." I say awkwardly.

"Well, call of the divorce. The proof is right there!" He says, excitedly.

"Brantley... it's not that easy..." I started.
