Laura's P.O.V
"Laura!" Vanessa sighed in relief. "What are you doing here?" I said clenching my jaw and speaking lowly. "I have a problem," she said. "Then it's your problem and not mine," I said trying to close the door. She put her foot in the door to hold it open and I swung it open again. "What do you want?" I yelled, not caring that Ross was asleep anymore. "Laura what's going on?" Ross said. I turned around to see him standing right behind me. "Look who showed up," I said, turning around and rolling my eyes. "Why are you here Vanessa?" Ross sighed. She bent down and picked something up from in front of the wall beside the door. Ross and I looked at each other with blank expressions as she held up a car seat with a sleeping baby in it. "I need you to take it," she told me. "What?" I questioned. "you need to take her Laura, I can't keep her!" Vanessa exclaimed. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T KEEP HER SHE'S YOUR CHILD VANESSA YOU CAN'T JUST DUMP HER ON SOMEONE ELSE!" I screamed at her. I felt Ross's hands on my shoulders as he pulled me back into his chest. He gestured for Vanessa to come in. She walked in and we all sat down at the table. "What happened?" Ross asked her, "Is she Logan's?" Vanessa shook her head, "Logan and I actually broke up the night after the party. I kind of slept around after that, I don't know who's it is." She sounded and looked extremely nervous. "SO? It's still your child! Vanessa this is your fault, you are responsible for this! You need to look after her!" I yelled. "Laura, I don't want it!" She yelled back at me. "That's not something you get to decide to force on me Vanessa! Put her up for adoption if you don't think your capable of looking after her," I told her. "Laura, I don't want to put her up for adoption. I want to know that she's in safe hands and I want that to be with you and Ross!" she explained. I sighed and turned to look at Ross. "I'll give you guys a minute," he said, standing up and leaving. "Vanessa, I got pregnant over Christmas..." I started. "So, you can't look after her because you and Ross expecting your own child?" She questioned. "N-no, n-n-not anymore," I choked. Her facial expression softened and she stood up and walked towards me. A couple of tears fell from my eyes as she enveloped me in a hug. "I loved that baby so much!" I exclaimed, "That's how much you should love your baby, knowing who's it is or not!" She nodded slowly and walked back to her seat. "Her name is Shannon," she whispered after a while. I smiled to myself and asked, "After Aunt Shannon?" She smiled and nodded. "See Vanessa? You love that baby a lot more than you think you do! The idea of raising a child just scares you. Trust me it terrified me at first! I had nightmares about telling Ross at first, but you can get through this Vanessa!" I told her. She smiled softly and looked down at the table. "Thank you, Laura," She said, eventually looking up at me. "No problem," I smiled, "and if you ever need help, I'm always here."
