"FUCK!" I yelled running through the house.

"I Uh... I thought we were watching our language with Charlotte around?" Anna asked as I ran passed her.

She managed to catch my waist pulling me back.

"Woah what's got you in such a rush?" She asked me as I looked at her.

"I have a shift. They put me for a late shift so Umm... you take Charlotte to school and I go to work? Got it? Great! Thanks love you!" I said pecking her lips and leaving shutting the door after me.

"Charlotte! Time to go!" Anna yelled as I ran to my side of the bed.

No no no this couldn't be happening now. I looked through my drawer and took out the birth control medicine. I haven't taken my meds in fucking days because I kept forgetting due to the over used stress with late night shifts at the hospital I practically sleep in the entire day.

And with Jackson out of jail it's gotten to me I've managed to scare myself shitless and forget my medicine.

What do I tell Charlotte? No fuck. What do I tell Anna?! Oh god life really had to give me the goddamn miracle now.

First I cried my literal life out. After I calmed down I went to a pharmacy store and got me a pregnancy test.

My periods haven't came yet and it was suppose to be a little more than over a week ago.

I didn't ask Anna if she wanted another kid yet I had been so under stress I had totally forgotten I stopped taking all my meds. What if she's mad? What if she leaves me.

No I wouldn't be able to handle that. I don't want to have Charlotte to have two birthdays or two Christmas. I don't think I could cope with me and Anna split apart again.

It was my fault we broke apart the first time and I can't be the second time. I don't want a second time. I couldn't hurt Anna again like that. I get it was my fault and again I've shoved my fears down the bag I've slowly began to overcome them every second of everyday.

"Ma'am?" I heard as I broke my thoughts and paid for the pregnancy test.

I threw the receipt away and when I was walking I ran into someone.

I looked up and there he was... Jackson... fuck Cmon no!

"Peyton? Is that actually you?" He asked and I gulped feeling all the fears I've shoved down the bag so far just start to load to the top.

"Y-Yea." I said and he grinned.

"Wow it's been such a long time since I've seen you." He said and I laughed nervously.

"You've definitely gotten so much more prettier." He said reaching for my face.

I slapped his hand away as he was shocked.

"Wow what's gotten you so tense." He said and I just tried walking past him.

I felt him grab my hand spinning me around and trapped me into a corner.

"Ooh... I just wanna touch you." He said and I fought back against him.

Kicked him right in between his legs making him collapse on the pavement.

"Get near me I'll swear to god I will do much worse than that." I said and immediately got in my car driving off as fast as I could.

I got home and thank god Anna was not home yet. She didn't have a shift for another couple hours.

I ran to the bathroom shutting the door. I tore open the pregnancy test box and did my business.

~~~~~

"Why is Peyton still here. I thought she had a shift." I mumbled feeling skeptical.

I opened the door and walked in to see Peyton on the couch.

"Love?" I called out but she just stared at the screen of a blank tv.

"Peyton my love are you okay?" I called out again getting closer.

I cautioned my distance with her in case if she ever did feel scare I'd hit her I would wanna be in a position where I wasn't anywhere close enough to hurt her.

"Hey Pluto." I said petting Pluto.

I carried him all the way and sat next to Peyton and Pluto cuddled on both of our laps as Peyton never said a word since I got here.

"Okay now your just scaring me... what is wrong?" I said pulling her chin to face me.

"I'm sorry." She mumbled and I was confused.

"Hey what happened?" I asked. I made Pluto get up and sat her right in my lap straddling me as she looked at me.

"You once told me you always liked the name Charlie?" She said and I cocked my head with confusion.

"And I mean like yeah Charlie is a unisex name. Means if it was a girl and boy it wouldn't matter and I mean like I already like the name you chose and I me-" I cut her off.

"Peyton? Get to the point." I said and she just had fear in her eyes.

"How would you like another kid?" She asked me and I was so shocked at the sudden ask of the question.

"I mean are you okay with it? Cause with Jackson all out and about you've been like... scary." I said nervously laughing at the end.

"Wow Anna." She said and I laughed.

"Why are you asking if I'd like another kid?" I asked and she just stared at me.

"Your really not getting the hints are you?" She said and I was confused.

"Anna I'm pregnant." She said and we heard Pluto choke on his food.

"Well Pluto definitely had a reaction. You know that was like funny cause it was like wrong timing." Peyton said laughing nervously.

"Are you trying to change the subjects here?" I asked her and she furrowed her eyebrows.

"Whaaat nooo." She said sarcastically trying to lighten the mood.

"Peyton are you actually?" I asked her and she sighed nodding.

"That's why we should have used a condom goddamnit." I mumbled getting up.

"And I thought you were on meds!!" I yelled but regretted yelling immediately when she flinched.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry... I didn't mean to." I said and she nodded.

"Anna are you gonna leave?" She asked.

"No! I would never. I promise I would never leave you and Charlotte." I said getting closer to her.

"I'm never gonna leave you two. I promise that." I said kissing her forehead.

I could hear her let out a sigh of relief. I hugged her to reassure everything would be okay.

"So now I just have to put up with 9 more months of sassy Peyton." I said and I could hear her laugh.

I'm glad she was able to tell me. I didn't want her to be afraid to not tell me.

"Where's the test?" I asked her and she brought me to our room.

Sure enough there was 2 lines.

"What do we tell Charlotte?" I asked her and she froze.

"Shit." She said and we both looked at each other.

~~~~~

"Hey char." I said as Peyton was cooking dinner.

"What would you think of a sibling?" I asked her and she thought about it.

"What's a sibwiling?" She said mispronouncing the word.

I smiled and carried her. I plopped her down on the couch. Peyton sat next to me as she looked at both of us scared.

"If this about the missing chocawates it was all Pluto's fault he ate them." She said and me and Peyton laughed.

"Char. A sibling is a like a younger brother or sister." I said and she was confused.

"What she's meaning is. Your gonna have a sibling. A partner in crime to play with." Peyton said and Charlotte immediately got up and ran around the house in excitement.

"Well we got that over with." I whispered.

~~~~~

Charlotte was in bed and me and Peyton were in our bed. Watching tv as I turned to her.

"Thank you for telling me... I'm proud of you for actually telling me the second you knew." I said and she smiled nodding.

"Now I sorta miss Sassy Peyton." I said and she playfully slapped me.

Here we go on our new step of an adventure ride.
