We arrive in California and drop off Jake and Luke with Nash and Cameron. Shawn and I are on our way to the doctor.

After a few tests, I'm told to lay on the table. A woman puts this jelly stuff onto my stomach and then she puts this rolly thing onto my skin. On the monitor you can see inside.

"That's your baby." she says. Shawn grips my hand harder.

"She thinks it's a boy." Shawn says.

"I did with my first child. I was right." the doctor says. "Do you have names picked out?"

I look up at Shawn. "I like Jake."

"Jake sounds perfect."

The nurse looks back at the monitor and then at us. My smile falls. "What?"

"How far long are you?"

"3 months."

"No way." She asks.

"Why?"

"The fetus is so small." Her eyes widen. "Mr. and Mrs. Mendes.... this is common in most pregnancys."

"What are you talking about?"

"Your chances on this baby-"

"He will be fine." I say through gritted teeth.

"He isn't going to-"

"Yes, he will. Let's go, Shawn."

"Mam."

I turn around and face her. "Fuck you, bitch. I'm going to have my baby and we are going to be happy for as long as we can. Don't you dare tell me he won't make it, because the lord will let him." I spit on the ground and leave.
