Diana

Today was the day. The day I was gonna tell Calum about the baby. I hope and pray he doesn't react negatively. It will break me if he does. Since I'm over eight weeks I decided to go ahead and do the DNA test. I brought a cotton swab and a plastic bag for Calum. Then we'll find out.

I walked upstairs and to his cell wiping my sweaty palms on my jeans as I did. Nina kept a look out for me, just incase. Calum was laying on his bed reading the same book. He must've heard me because he closed his book and stood up.

"Hey doll face what's up?" I smiled shyly.

"We've gotta talk." I started to un button my shirt but he closed his eyes.

"Woah not right now Diana. It's 8 am." I rolled my eyes.

"Calum it's something important." He opened his eyes and by that time I had my police uniform unbuttoned. Underneath it I had worn a tank top which really showed my bump. Calum looked down and his eyes widened.

"Calum I'm pregnant." He didn't respond he just stood there. He walked up to my stomach and touched it.

He looked up into my eyes, "Is it mine?"

"That's the thing Calum, I don't know." I noticed his face scrunch up for a minute but he took a deep breath and softened it.

"What if it is mine?" Calum asked. I sighed I really wouldn't know. My baby's father would be in jail for I don't know how long. What if they never have a father figure in their life? I can't do that to them.

I grabbed his hands, "We'll make it work."

"I just wanna let you know if it's mine. I'll do anything for her or him. My family and I will fully support and help in any way we can." I just smiled to myself.

"You wanna know if it's yours?" He chuckled.

"Duh." Without even asking I pulled out the cotton swab and ran it along the inside of his cheek. I put it in the plastic bag and zipped it.

"Well that was easy." He laughed.
He grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to him. I laid my head on his chest hearing his heartbeat.

"Your hearts beating fast." I stated looking up at him.

He placed one of my hands on his heart, "Watch this." He placed my lips on his and his heart started rapidly beating faster. I pulled back not wanting to give him a heart attack.

"Woah calm down. I don't want you to fall out before you know if you're a father or not." I exclaimed.

"So are you still getting married to Adam?" I shrugged.

"I don't know at this point. With the baby thing and you. I don't even think I should be sleeping in the same bed as him." Calum kissed the top of my forehead.

"Well I'm sure you'll figure it out. Now get back to work and cover up, nobody needs to know."

I just laughed and walked out of his cell. I buttoned my shirt as a walked towards Nina. She noticed me and ran up to me.

"How did it go? Was it terrible? Was he upset? Are y'all getting married?" I laughed grabbing Nina's shoulder.

"Calm down. Everything went fine. We didn't really discuss if it wasn't his but he did say if it is he'll support me in any way he can." Nina started to fan her eyes.

"That's so cute!" I rolled my eyes at her fake crying.

"I also got his DNA so all we have to do is talk to doctor Sam." Nina clapped her hands.

"This is so interesting. I feel like I'm in a drama based book or something!"

"Please I wouldn't be surprised." I joked which we just laughed about.

As the day went on nobody really noticed my bump thankfully. I did have occasional bathroom trips to throw up though, which was not pleasant.

It was starting to get late and I remembered I should call the doctors office before it closes.

I dialed the number and it took 6 rings to answer.

"Hello my name is Donna. How may I help you?" The lady nicely answered.

"Yes is Dr. Sam still in office."

"Yes I will transfer you." The noise then changed to radio music. Don't you just love this part of phone calls, waiting.

It took about five minutes before the phone got picked up, "Hello?"

"Yes Dr. Sam. I am a patient you saw earlier, Ms. Jones. I have gotten DNA from one of the possible fathers. Would you like me to just come in tomorrow or what?"

"Uhm," She paused as it sounded like she was shuffling through papers, "Yes I can squeeze you in about 12 pm. Is that ok?"

"That's actually perfect it's my lunch break. I will see you tomorrow thank you."

"No problem have a nice night." With that's she hung up and I walked over to Nina.

"Tomorrow I have an appointment during lunch break hour. Will you come with?" I somewhat whispered, not wanting anyone else to hear.

"Definitely. You know I'll always be there for you girl." She side hugged me and squeezed me tight with both of her arms.

It was getting time for the prisoners to sleep when I remembered something. I ran upstairs and to Calum's cell. When I got there of course I was fatigue and kind of broke a sweat.

"Are pregnant women even supposed to run?" He chuckled.

I shrugged not being about to respond with words because of my heavy, awkward mouth breathing.

After catching my breath I pulled out one of the sonogram photos. I handed it to Calum but he just looked confused.

"What's this?" He said turning the picture different ways.

I rolled my eyes and turned it the right way, "It's the baby." I pointed at the little oval and he clutched his chest. He ran his finger over the oval like he could feel the baby.

"I'm gonna call the baby peanut." I facepalmed.

"You're not gonna call the baby peanut. It not even that size anymore!" I pointed out.

"And I'm gonna call the baby peanut if I want to. It's a free country." He protested.

"Whatever Calum."

It was nice joking with him. Getting this baby thing off my chest really lifted some stress off my shoulders. Even if the baby was Calum's though he'd be a great father.

When I walked past his cell, doing the final check. He had the sonogram taped to the wall right beside him.

I smiled to myself rubbing my stomach.

"It's me and you against the world."
