  Cam pulled up to the misfits house and got out. he was a bit shaky, it being five thirty in the morning, his girlfriend who he'd just found out was pregnant the night before, calling him to the house at odd hours of the morning. thank god he was awake.

  he walked in the house and saw the three on the couch, plus Rilee, who was asleep, her head resting on Swagger's lap. Emily immediately stood up and rushed over to him. Cam accepted her into his arms. as he held her, he could almost feel how nervous she was.

  "Over here, you guys, we got something to discuss," Matt says, beckoning the two over to where they sat. they complied, sitting down and looking at eachother with contemplation lacing how they'd go about talking.

  "Are you happy about this?" Emily asks quietly, only glancing at him for a second before her eyes found their way to her lap again.

  "Is it ideal, no, am I happy," Cam things for a moment. "I don't know. It's all been going really fast from just learning about this yesterday to now. I'm scared, obviously, as are you, much more than I am."

  "We can't do this," she said quickly. "I can't... do this."

  "Emmy," Cam says calmly, reaching over and rubbing his girlfriends arm calmly. "It'll all be okay, right?"

  "Cam, I can't have a baby," she whispered, her pained little voice was quiet as she hid her face in her legs, trying to keep from crying.

  "No matter how we go about this, we need to go to a doctor's, okay?" Cam says reassuringly. "I'll schedule one for tomorrow."

  Emily nodded a bit. "You're right," she responds. "I'm so sorry."

  "What could you possibly be sorry for, Em?"

  "I'm ruining your life."

  "Well, for one, it's my fault, I'm not the one pregnant here, two, you aren't ruining my life, because you're the best thing that's ever happened to it," Cam says, hugging Emily to his side.

  "I do hate to be the bringer of bad news, but it is five in the morning. You guys can stay in the spare bedroom, seeing as neither of you have gotten any sleep and one has a living thing inside of you," Swagger says, breaking the conversation. "I'm glad you guys got this resolved."

  "If I may put in my input," Matt says. "You guys know what to do, don't worry about it too much. And Cam, it isn't your decision to make whether you keep it or whatever happens." his voice became slightly more stern. Cam's eyebrows raised as he nodded.

  "And, Emily, no matter what you choose, it's perfectly okay. Promise."
