AMELIA walked out of the bathroom the pregnancy test in her hand still in shock as she walked to the kitchen where Rudy was putting away groceries.

"Hey baby, are you feeling better?" he asked nervously.

"Um..yeah," she said the pain in her voice clearly evident. "Bubba?" she said shyly.

"You're pregnant," he said looking up from what he was doing.

"You-you know?" she asked shock coming over her face.

"I had an idea," he said grabbing one of the bags which was different than the rest. He pulled out a little elephant with a binkie attached to it, shaking it in front of her like a puppy.

"Rud-rudy," she said sweetly a single tear falling down her face.

"Don't cry, baby," he said walking towards the girl wrapping her in a hug.

"I'm emotional Rudy!" she whined.

"I know I know." he laughed at her.

"Are you laughing at me?" she said pouting at the boy.

"No, no baby. You're so cute," he said rubbing circles around her back.

"Okay we need to book flights to LA, then make a doctors appointment to confirm, then figure out if we're gonna stay in LA or come here, I'd love to be around our friends, but also if I'm here I'm closer to my family, but LA is probably ju.."

"Amelia, shhh," he said cutting her off. "We can get a doctor's appointment here confirm everything and then go back to LA and we talk about stuff there. We have 9 months, no need to stress yet," he said consoling the girl.

"Okay, okay," she said calming down.

"Did you tell anyone?" he asked.

"Um...I might've taken the test on FaceTime with Maddie and Bails," she said nervously.

"Thank god, cause I called JD," he said non-chaluntly.

"YOU CALLED JD?" she yelled.

"YOU FACETIMED THE GIRLS." he yelled at the same volume.

"DONT YELL AT ME!" she screamed, starting to cry.

"Oh god Millie I'm sorry," he said slightly laughing but hugging the girl compassionately.

"Is this what being pregnant is gonna be like, me crying every 5 minutes?" she asked giggling at herself.

"If it is I will be here to laugh at you for the next 9 months." he said placing a kiss on her forehead."You make an appointment, and once you find out when it is I'll book the flights okay?"

"Okay," she said smiling and going towards her phone.

AT THE DOCTOR

"Amelia Foster?" the nurse called.

She stood up grabbing onto Rudy's hand, it had been 2 days since she'd taken the test and she ended up taking 6 tests in total to make sure, all saying positive and if the doctor told her she wasn't her heart would be broken. False-positives did happen but not 6 of them, right?

"You're here for your pregnancy test results right?" the nurse said.

"Yes ma'am,"  she said nervously.

"Alright," she said and then proceeding to ask for Millie's history. Millie's palms were raw but she continued to rub them together, Rudy tried to get her to stop but his hands were picked at as well so there was no point in telling her to stop.

"The doctor should be in shortly to give you your results," the nurse said as the two thanked her. As soon as she left anxiety filled the air.

"Millie it is going to be okay," he said. "If you are pregnant we'll handle it," he said his finger interlocking with Millie's

"I'm not worried about being pregnant I'm worried about not being pregnant, I've always wanted to be a mom and now that it's here I'm so excited and I don't want that to be taken away from me." she said slightly worried about what his reaction would be.

"Baby, if you're not pregnant we have a lifetime to make as many kids as we want. You and me okay and whatever little gremlins come along the way." he said reassuringly.

"Do not call our children gremlins." she giggled at him.

"So the the thought of little baby Rudy's running around sounds okay to you." he said giggling.

"Okay maybe they are gremlins." she laughed along with him.

A knock interrupted their laughter causing anxiety to race back into their minds.

"Hello I'm Dr. Gibson, Amelia right?" he said towards the girl.

"Yes, this is my boyfriend Rudy." she said introducing him as Rudy shook his hand.

"Alright so I have your results." he said as Amelias face went pale thinking about the fact that her dream could be taken away from her in just a few words, Rudy squeezed her hand reassuring her quickly. "You are in fact pregnant." he said looking in between the two. Amelia let out a breath she didn't know she was holding as she locked eyes with Rudy who had tears welling in his eyes. "You are 6 weeks along."

"Oh, wow okay." Amelia said shocked that she was that far along.

The doctor continued to explain things Millie needed to do to keep her and the baby healthy but Millie couldn't stop touching her stomach and smiling at Rudy who just stared at the girl with so much love in his eyes.

They eventually left the doctor heading back to the beach house as they were getting ready for their flight which was the next day. Rudy turned on Dancing Queen knowing that it would be exactly what Millie would want. She locked eyes with him as he was the one to motion her to him this time.

"We're having a baby." he said wrapping his arms around her waist.

She giggled repeating the words back to him. He started to say the words in a rhythm as they danced around the open living space.

"I love you." she said wrapping her arms around his neck.

"I love you Amelia." he repeated over and over cause he was. He couldn't think about anything but the girl and their future together. He needed a plan and going to LA was just what he needed for the plan.
