He just looked at her unsurely.

"I think I'm pregnant." Haydon suddenly told him.

Stephan held her close.

Ethan looked at her in surprise taking a moment to answer. "We should find out for sure... before deciding anything."

She nodded.

He walked over to sit beside her sliding his arm around her.

She lent into him.

Ethan held her close kissing the side of her head.

She snuggled into him. "If I am, do you think this is a good time to have a child?" She asked him. "And how could this have happened, we are always so careful."

He held her a little closer. "The timing might not be the most ideal but we'll be okay, we're not entirely alone in this."

She shook her head. "We can't tell the others, they have enough things to deal with without worrying about us too."

"Their all bound to find out, we can't hind this for very long."

"I know." She sighed.

He pushed her hair back from her face. "We'll figure this out, we can do this."

She looked at him and nodded slightly.

Ethan gave her a small smile.

She smiled slightly in return.

"Should we talk to the others now?"

She nodded.

Ethan called the others into the kitchen.

Alice sat on the counter as Stephan sat at the table.

Ana, Rylee and CJ all came into the kitchen to join them.
