(Demi's P.O.V)

As we drove home from the doctors, i still hadnt told Talia. But i planned on doing that tonight, i'm going to plan something fun for us both to do together and then i'll tell her...i just hope she takes it well. Thats the last thing i need, my own daughter being mad at me AGAIN. Because let me tell you, that shit hurts.

We walk in the door Marissa glowing with excitement, Talia amused by Marissa's excitement and then there's me. I'm still debating on whether im happy about this baby or not. I mean. Of course i want a baby, but not particularily Jonas's baby...or even at the age of 22 but.. i guess God has a plan for me, well thats what they all say.

Talia dissapeared off to her room and Marissa made herself comfortable on the kitchen bench while i stood opposite her. Laying my head in my hands i slipped off into my imaginary world where my thoughts could discuss things with themselves. that was until i was broken out of that.

  M - "Demi, Demi. Demetriaaaaa"

  - "Huh what?"

  M - "Whats floatin through that head of yours?"

 Welp, time to spill the beans.

  - "Im scared Mar. About everything. Raising another baby on my own with Talia, who i dont even know will be happy about this. Then there's the fact that Joe will likely want some custody of the baby and the press and my career and what about when - "

 M - "Demi slow down you're getting yourself worked up."

Thats when i realised Marissa had a tight grip on my shaking hands, and tears were cascading down my cheeks.

  M - "Take deep breaths, in and out."

Eventually i calmed down and had Marissa carry me over to the couch.

  M - "Okay so firstly. Talia will be over joyed that she gets to have a baby brother or sister. Secondly Dont even dare think about doing this on your own. you have me, Talia, your parents. You have support Demi. and if Joe wants custody, we'll deal with that when the time comes. But for now, enjoy this experience"

Dang it. Why is Marissa always right? I nodded my head then layed my head on her shoulder.

  - "Marrrr"

  M - "Demmmmm" she mocked.

  - "I dont want this to sound rude but are you able to stay somewhere else tonight? I want to do something special here for Talia and then break the news to her."

  M - "You're just in luck. Ryan invited me to his place. I'm meeting the parents. He has a guest bedroom that he'd let me use for the night."

(If i didnt already tell y'all Ryan is Marissa's boyfriend)

  - "Thanks Mar"

i smiled softly and looked at the time. 5:30pm huh.

  - "What time is he coming to pick you up?"

  M - "6:30 so i better go get ready."

She stood up and headed to her room while i headed to the linen cupboard and grabbed tons of blankets and pillows and carried them to the theatre room. After setting it up i walked out to the dinning room just in time to see Marissa walk down the stairs in a Black and White skater dress and her hair curled.

 M - "How do i look?" She did a ballerina twirl while giggling.

  - "You look amazing Mar. and by the way im borrowing that dress one day"

  M - "Yeah yeah. Just like with all my clothes. You'll just borrow it and keep it in your closest for the rest of eternity"

i giggled.
