"Guys, Dally and I need to say something." I announced to the living room and it got silent.

"We're pregnant." I said quietly while hugging Dallas.

"You're kiddin!!" Two-but jumped up and did the ugliest cartwheel I'd ever seen.

"God you're gonna have a baby." He said looking at the ground.

Tears kept falling as the gang took turns hugging me. "Holy shit!" I yelled and they all took a step back in shock.

"What?" Dally asked concerned.

"I'm fucking pregnant!" I yelled as if it was just now occurring to me.

"Yeah I think we established that." Opal giggled sarcastically.

"You're going to be a fantastic mother." Dally said kissing me.

"And you are going to be a terrific father Dallas Winston." I kissed him again.

"I'm gonna be a kickass uncle!" Two-but yelled.

"You're all going to be amazing aunts and uncles." I reassured them.

"You gotta give the baby a crazy name. It's a Curtis thing." Sodapop tried convinced me.

"I'm not a Curtis anymore little buddy." I replied.

Darry walked over and wrapped his arm around me. "You're always a gonna be a Curtis, little sister." He kissed my temple and made me smile.

"Well, What do you think Dally, you wanna give this baby a crazy name?" I laughed.

"Yeah why not? Something unique ya know? It'll make since."

"What do you mean make since?"

"I don't know, our situation is unique. This damn family sure as hell is unique. I think the baby's name should be too." He explained and I smiled at him. He was right.

"I agree." I said quietly.
