6:03 P.M. Ottawa, Canada

Gwen's POV
I was absolutely shocked from what Tristen had just told me...I'm...pregnant. This, couldn't be right. There's no way I'm-...I'm pregnant. I wish I could be happy about this, but memories of the last time I was pregnant came to me, and I just started tearing up. Tristen noticed and sat down next to me. 

  "Gwen...this is a good thing." He said and I shook my head. "Do you know who the father is?" He added and I looked at him.

  "It can only be one person." I said whipping my tears.

   "Wh-...oh, well. You should go talk to Duncan before you decide anything Gwen." He said and I nodded. "Oh and no more flying, or alcohol." He added putting an emphasis on alcohol.

      I tilted my head and he shook his head.

    "I don't want you putting anymore stress on yourself okay...just stay here...in Canada." He said and I nodded. "Now go talk to Duncan." He added and I sighed.

Tristen left the room and I just sat there in the hospital gown. I had no idea how Duncan was going to react. I sighed and then started getting dressed and put my hand on my stomach. Maybe...I just don't want to go through another miscarriage again. I walked out to the rental car. I put my head on the stirring wheel and just sighed. I got a call from Brandon and answered it.

  "H-" I was then cut off by

  "Are you okay? Is some incompetent doctor working on you? Do I have to call in a favor?" Brandon asked and I just sat there.

  "No...my brother was able to look at me." I said looking around.

      I took out my other phone and looked up, Duncan's tattoo parlor working, to see if he was in the office today.

  "Oh good...you sound okay, but are you okay?" He asked.

  "Physically yes. Mentally....I don't know." I said as I clicked on Duncan's website.

   "I mean that sounds...good, what's wrong?" He asked and I sighed.

   "I'm pregnant" I said and I heard him choke. "Yeah, but shut up so I can call someone else on my other phone." I added and Brandon didn't say anything.

      I dialed the tattoo parlor's number and sat there with two phones in my hand. I hate my life right now, I just really hope some random ass person doesn't see me.

   "You're calling Keystone Ink's, this is the manger Duncan Nelson speaking. How may I help you?" Duncan asked in his fake manger voice and I laughed to myself.

   "Uh...hi, do you guys take walk-ins?" I asked and there was a sigh.

       I laughed to myself as I knew Duncan hated when people call and ask this question, because he says it's technically not a walk-in if you call someone before coming in. I heard him breath into the phone.

    "Today yes, we have a few openings. Would you like to schedule an appointment?" He asked.

    "Yes please, can I come in the next twenty minutes?" I asked and he sighed.

   "Yes you can." He said and I laughed as I could tell how annoyed he was through the phone.

     Duncan should really get one of his employees to answer the phone, as well...he sucks at this. I made an appointment with him and then hung up. I then started talking to Brandon about this pregnancy, as I drove to the tattoo parlor.


Duncan's POV
I was annoyed after getting off the phone with some lady about making an appointment. I put on my website that you should not call to make appointments, you should email or schedule an appointment online. I knew this lady would be in a few minutes, so I started getting my things ready.
