I want it to be Teddy, SO much, like you have no idea...
but my heart is saying it isn't going to be him. My fingers are crossed though!

"It's like ten thousand s.thingys when all you need is a knife, It's meeting the man of my dreams, And then meeting his beautiful wife, And isn't it ironic...don't you think
A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...

It's like rain on your wedding day, It's a free ride when you've already paid, It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures..." -- Alanis Morissette 'Ironic'

"Well it looks like you're just a little bit over two months," Janelle said as she continued to scan over my belly.

I didn't know what to say. I was scared, confused and happy all that the same time.

"I take it this is a surprise for you..."

I nodded. "You could say that. In more ways than one."

"Well, everything looks good, so just make sure you make another appointment on your way out," she smiled at me. "Here's a picture, and congratulations."

"Thanks," I smiled nervously. If only she knew...

- - - -

I pulled into the big gravel driveway of the garage Justin and his brother owned together. There was a familiar red Mustang parked out front and I knew it wouldn't be a good idea to go in and talk to Justin... But my Jeep was due for an oil change.

I slid out and closed the door slowly behind me. I was taking my time so I could get my thoughts straight. All of this had my brain jumbled... It was a wonder I could even make it here safely.

"Hey Maddie," Danny called and came running to the front desk to greet me. I saw Justin's eyes avert to me briefly before he quickly went back to Tara and their conversation. He didn't look good.

Danny gave me a hug and pulled me into his office. "What can I do for you?"

"Well... My car is due for an oil change." I said, hoping he wouldn't notice.

He tilted his head and gave me a look. The look that says 'I know why you're really here...' "Justin told me about the... situation."

I nodded and looked down at my feet. "Oh."

"Personally, I'm excited. I think its great!" He said, leaning back into his chair. "It is his, right?"

I nodded. "Thats what I came to tell him."

Danny made a face. "Yeah, that might not be such a good idea right now."

"Yeah, I know Tara's marked her territory. She got all upset that he shares a house with me. She's really going to flip when she hears about this." I said as I watched the two of them there in the garage in front of an old Chevy. Justin was rubbing his face in frustration.

"That's not it." Danny said. "Tara's pregnant too."

"Oh." I felt my heart drop to the floor. "Seriously? And its..." Danny was nodding.

"Wow... Well. I guess I'll just go then."

"Doesn't your car need an oil change?" He asked.

"Well, yeah..."

"So just hang around. She's on her lunch break, so she'll be leaving in a few minutes." He told me, and sure enough, she was gone five minutes later.

"Come on, let's go get your Jeep." I followed him out, not even once looking in Justin's direction. "So I guess you're going to wait on it?"

"Huh?" I asked. I was having trouble paying attention from all the thoughts running through my mind.

"Your car. You're going to wait for us to change the oil, right?"

"Oh, yeah. Sure," I smiled nervously as Danny cranked the engine and pulled it into the garage. I stood by my Jeep as Danny barked a few orders to Justin, who stopped what he was doing and started working on my car.

I sat on the "couch" - a back seat from an old Lincoln that Danny had insisted would look "totally awesome" in the garage.

"So what's it like being the old Justin Williams?" I asked as he opened my hood. Suddenly I was feeling bitter.

"I didn't know there was an old Justin Williams." He sounded annoyed.

"You know what I mean." I said. "What's it like to have two girls pregnant at the same time?"

He nearly dropped his wrench on his head.

That was why he was acting weird last night. He already knew about her. "So that's why you didn't want to go with me this morning? I thought you'd just met her, Justin."

He was standing now, looking for another wrench, I assumed. He turned and faced me. "Don't get all high and mighty on me Mads!" He yelled. "Because the last time I checked you're in a relationship with someone else too! And you haven't even told Teddy."

"Oh, like you've told Tara?" I snapped.

"I was waiting to find out if it was mine or not."

"Well guess what? It is."

"Why are you being like this?" He asked. "We both did wrong here. Its not like you're not going to be with Teddy when this is all said and done. Because guess what? I've been there before... The waiting on you to make up your mind and when you choose me, he comes running back. It will be the same way. He'll be pissed... And then, just when you and me are perfect, he'll come in and smash it and my d.amn heart will be broke all over again, Madison! So don't expect me to dedicate all my time to just you because you're my first love, ok?"

Justin was never a man of many words, but when he had something to say, he knew how to say it. His words were so true, and they broke my heart to hear them. I never meant for any of this to happen.

"I'll be waiting by the door," I said in a small voice, barely above a whisper as I walked towards Danny's office and sat on a stool in front of the store.

I wiped a few tears from my eyes as Danny came out and patted my shoulder sympathetically as he exited to meet another customer who was waiting for him outside.

My phone buzzed in my lap. I checked the caller ID: Teddy. Great... Here goes nothing.

"H-hey," I said nervously. I hope I don't sound like I'm crying.

"Hey. What's wrong?"

"Ted... I'm pregnant." Talk about getting straight to the point.

"Oh. Wow. That's exciting." He was shocked, but he hadn't even heard the whole thing yet. That was only half of it.

"Yeah.. Um." I stuttered.

"What?" He asked. "I thought when people get pregnant its supposed to be a happy thing.."

"Yeah, well... Um." If only I could be as direct as I was a few seconds ago. "It's... The baby... It's Justin's."

"I'm sorry. What?" His voice rose just a tiny bit.

"It's Justin's."

"I heard you, I just thought I was imagining it." He said sarcastically. "What the hell, Madison? When?"

"It was a couple months ago... And we were both drunk and you and I were in one of our weird months."

"Oh, because that makes it so much better." His voice kept getting louder and louder. "What the hell Madison? I thought that it was you and me. I never once questioned anything with him... Why the hell would you go and do that, Madison?"

"I'm so, so sorry." I said as I started to cry. "I never meant for any of this to happen. I never thought..."

"What? That you'd get caught? How's that working out for ya?" He snapped.

"I'm sorry." I sobbed and swiveled the stool to face the wall so I didn't have to face Danny or Justin as I made an absolute fool of myself. "I know I was wrong. And I swear to you this won't happen again."

"Well its a little too late for an apology, ok? I trusted you, Madison. Despite your history with Justin, I trusted you. I never once... Gah, Madison." He said loudly.

The silence that followed was the worst five minutes of my life. I wished that he would say something... Anything. But nothing happened. We just sat there in silence, me wiping the tears off my cheeks, and him doing who knows what to release his anger.

"I gotta go." He finally said and hung up before I could say anything else.

I'm not sure how long I stared at my phone as it sat in my hand, but it had to be a good while, because when Justin came over and handed me my keys, he asked me how much longer I was going to sit there like that. I took the keys from him without saying a word, hoping he wouldn't follow me. I couldn't take any more yelling.

"I'm sorry," he whispered as I shut the door between us. I wiped my face.

"No, you're not. I deserved every bit of what you said." I told him. "I'm the one who is sorry. I never meant for any of this to happen."

"I know," he said and kissed my forehead. "Go get some rest. I'll see you at home."

It figures that my life would be so ironic. Its like a dumb pop song or a bad teen movie...

Aw, poor Ted. I feel bad for the guy.
I mean, I feel bad for her too. She's definitely in a rough situation.

It sucks.

So, it's safe to say that Ted is upset.
It's explanatory though. I hope that those two can push through the rough patches ahead of them.

I'm starting to develop a soft spot for J.
Right now it's just a wee little peanut sized soft spot. I'm sure it'll grow as I get to read more of this story. lol.

"Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?
Ooh, ooh " -- Bon Iver 'Skinny Love'

26

I sighed as I walked into the emergency room in my navy blue scrubs for yet another long weekend shift. My feet were starting to bother me more, and my back... Don't even get me started about my back. I only had three months left to go, but I wasn't sure if I could take it much longer. I already looked like I had swallowed two watermelons.

"Hey there," Lynnette called as she stripped her hands of a pair of plastic gloves. "There was a phone call for you earlier, but they wouldn't leave a message. They said they'd just try you later."

I nodded as I continued to the break room, where I put my things in my locker and poured myself as cup of apple juice.

"You're here!" Jake said as he came in, closing the door behind him. "Great! Awesome. So is there any way I can convince you to take my patient in room six? I need to take care of something real quick."

I gave him a weird look, but finished off my apple juice and waddled out of the break room to find the chart for room six.

"Has anyone seen the chart for room six?" I asked as I looked around the counter.

"Here you go," Lynnette handed it off to me. "Be careful. She's a biter."

"Great." I mumbled under my breath as I went to take care of my first patient of the night. "Hey Mrs. Lawson. How did you get that nasty cut on your arm?"

"They bit me."

"Who bit you?"

"The President."

"The President bit you?" She nodded and I gave her a look.

"The President of my knitting club." She blinked through her thick glasses.

"Ok. Well, let's get you fixed up." I rolled my eyes. It was going to be a long night.

- - - -

"Hey have you seen my pen?" Emma asked as she walked up to me. I shook my head. "Well can you help me look for it."

I groaned as I got up out of my chair and stood on my feet. If only she knew how bad this hurt me.

"It might be in the break room," she mumbled.

"Great, I'll go look there," I said as I shuffled off, not realizing she was following me. The blinds were closed, which meant someone was probably trying to sleep, but I was in no mood to respect someone's quiet time. I pushed the door open and all of my coworkers were standing on the other side.

"Surprise!"

Oh yay. Cake.

"We decided to get you a few things," Emma said, pushing me into the room. "Don't worry everything is gender neutral since you wanted it to be a surprise."

I made a bee line for the couch and wedged myself between Jake and Lynnette. For the next few minutes I simultaneously ate cake and opened presents. I got blankets and onesies in yellow and green, gift certificates galore, and even a giant gift bag full of diapers.

"Thanks guys," I said through a mouth full of cake. But the only ones left were Emma and Jake. Everyone else had left to take care of their patients, which I could understand. I almost started crying, but I managed to fight the lump in my throat. "Really, this is so sweet of you."

They both hugged me from each side. "You'll get our present later," Emma said and I wondered what it could have been. I hadn't even noticed that I hadn't got one from them yet.

"Now. Duty calls. Sorry to rain on everyone's parade," Jake laughed as he stood and helped me to my feet.

- - - -

I pulled into my driveway the next morning just as the sun was barely starting to peek over the horizon. Everything had that early morning greyness to it. It was my favorite time of day. It was just so relaxing.

I shut off my car, braving the cold for a few minutes as I walked to the front door and found my keys. It was late February, but this year was a little different in that the winter chill hadn't quite worn off yet like usual.

Sitting on my dresser was a simple off-white card that said congratulations across the front in a shiny light green. I flipped it open.

I know you told us not to go all-out on our gift, but for a future family member and godchild, we just had to. Love, Emma & Jake

I looked around my room, but saw nothing. So I walked out to the hall and noticed a piece of paper taped to the door that led to what used to be Justin's room.

Go in already! It read and I couldn't help but laugh. I knew it had to have been Emma that wrote it.

I pushed the door open. Inside was a beautiful dark wood crib with light green and yellow bedding and a tiny stuffed lamb sitting in the corner. It was beautiful.

I wiped a tear out of the corner of my eye as I dialed Emma's number.

"So do you love it?!" She squealed.

"I can't believe you spent so much money!"

"Don't worry about it, hun." She said. "Plus, it didn't break us too bad, we got a really good deal on it."

"Well, when you have your first child, I totally owe you." I said as I wiped another tear from my eye. "Thanks guys. Its gorgeous."

"You're welcome, love. Now get some rest! We have an exciting night ahead of us."

- - - -

I woke from my sleep at four in the afternoon, like always to get ready for Jake's show at the bar tonight. Sure, it was a little weird seeing a pregnant chick in a bar, but everyone knew me and knew that I wouldn't miss one of my friends' performances for anything.

I showered and stepped out to put on a little make-up before drying my hair. Just as I was about to turn on the hair dryer, I heard a knock. I knew it wasn't anyone I knew, or they would've used their key. Another knock. I wrapped myself in my new robe, courtesy of Lynnette, and made my way to the foyer.

"Hi," he said softly, looking at me with those blue eyes.

"Hi."

"I don't know where to start... But um... This is still really hard to deal with, but I've missed you. And its heartbreaking..."

"I'm so sorry," I said as I stared him straight in the eye.

He nodded. "I know. And I don't like living without you. So I really want to make this work."

I knew how hard this must have been for him. I don't think I could have done it myself.

"Do you want to come in?" He nodded and followed me inside. "You don't mind me getting ready do you? We can still talk..."

"Its fine." He followed me to my room, where he sat on my bed while I fixed my hair.

"I was mad for a while." He said. "I did a lot of things I regret. I even tried making things work with Brooke, but I can't fake it."

I nodded as I watched him through the mirror.

"So where's..."

"He moved out." I said. "Tara is pregnant too. She's actually due in a few weeks."

"So he chose... Wow."

"I know." I said. "Things were a little rough at first. She kept getting jealous and so one night she shows up here, calling me all sorts of names and demanded that he make a choice, right then and there. So he packed a bag and left."

"Right then?"

I nodded. "He came back the next day and took the rest of his stuff." I nodded towards his old room. "Its the nursery now."

Teddy shook his head. "Do you know what you're having?"

"Nope. Its a surprise." I said as I turned off my curling iron and made my way to my closet to get dressed. "But I've got names. If its a boy I'm naming him Lukas Jacob, and if its a girl, Katherine Bailee. I'm gonna call her Kate though."

"Its cute." He said. His voice had that tone to it. The one where you're a little jealous and bothered, but are trying to not let the person you're talking to know.

I sat on the bed beside him and laid my hand on top of his. "I know this is weird for you. And I'm sure you're still really upset. But I want you to know that I am so sorry. I should have never got drunk like that and we both knew better. Believe me, I never wanted to hurt you. I don't like being without you. You make me feel warm and happy inside, and I just feel special when I'm with you. I have missed you so much."

I thought about the numerous times where I'd call his phone, even though I knew he would ignore me and send me to voice mail. I had just wanted to hear his voice. And once or twice I'd even started to leave a message, but I couldn't find the right words to say how sorry I was.

He gave me a small smile and wrapped his fingers around mine. "I've missed you too."

I gave him a big smile, one that I'm sure looked totally goofy compared to his shy one. But I was happy. I was happy that things were starting to work out, and maybe, everything would be ok after all.
