Song For This Chapter -

Hurts - Heaven

"Is this hell or heaven?
I can't tell when we're together"

*Summer's POV*

"I'm pregnant." I breathed out.

The heaviness on my chest that had been there for a few days, the two little blue lines that had been staring me in the face, flashing in front of my eyes every time I blinked, had lifted. Only to be replaced by the tension of how Caspar would react.

I slowly lifted my head to come face to face with Caspar, tears rolling down his cheeks.

"Casp?" I asked, my voice wavering. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I know we should have been more careful and that this is really fast, I mean we're not even married yet and I-"

"Summer, be quiet." He spoke softly. He had begun pacing, running his hand through his hair.

"I know that we're so young and we've only just got engaged but it can't be helped I mean, condoms only work like 98% of the time so it's nothing that could have been prevented and I guess that-"

"Summer stop talking!" Caspar suddenly yelled.

I immediately stopped, an audible gulp travelling through my throat. A deafening silence had engulfed the room and Caspar had stopped pacing, his feet still but arms shaking. His fingers were tangled in his hair as I watched his chest move up and down rapidly.

"Casp?" I spoke softly, walking over and placing my hand gently on his arm. 

His voice came out slower and softer than I had ever heard it. "We're having a baby."

"Yeah..we are." I replied, my tone as quiet as his.

I couldn't tear my eyes away from his, the fear of how confusing and unknown his reaction was was making me feel sick inside.

"We're having a baby!" He suddenly yelled, a beaming smile covering his face. 

It was a smile that could never be replicated. Eyes squinted, teeth shining and his cheeks redder than the roses in the vase by the fireplace. I was quickly lifted off of the ground, a pair of familiar muscular arms wrapping around my waist.

"We're having a baby!" Caspar repeated, spinning me round.

A squeal fell from my lips as I buried my head into the crook of his neck, my stomach feeling the relief of his reaction.

"So you're not mad?" I asked, smiling once he had put me down.

"Mad?! Summer this is fantastic! We're going to be parents!" 

"You're what?!" Zoe's voice came from the stair case.

Caspar and I pulled away from each other, both of our faces covered in smiles.

"Parents?!" Alfie asked, finally reaching the bottom of the staircase.

"Yeah!" I breathed out, smiling. "I'm pregnant!" 

A giant scream fell from Zoe's lips as she ran over, embracing us both in a giant hug. 

"Guys this is huge! Congratulations!" She laughed, kissing my cheek softly.

A part of me was so relieved that Zoe wasn't judging me like I knew some people would. But then I realised that Alfie was just stood there silently.

"Alf? You okay?" I asked, his eyes flickering up from the floor. "Did you hear what I said?"

"Yeah, yeah I did. Summer, are you sure this is a good idea?" He asked. My smile immediately faltered, sending my heart straight down into my stomach.
