She gives me a small smile. “Nothing that won’t go away in about nine months.”

What. The. Fuck.

Dad stands and looks at Collin. “I’m going to fucking kill you.”

I look up at Dad. “Why Collin? It’s not definitely his. There are at least five or six guys it could be.”

Mom, Dad, Melissa, and the doctor’s faces all drop, but I can feel Collin laughing again. I guess he’s the only one that understands my humor.

The rest realize it at some point. Melissa grabs Dad’s arm and drags him toward the door. “Come on. Let’s give them some privacy. Let’s check on everyone upstairs.”

I look at her. “Did the babies arrive yet?”

She shrugs. “We don’t know. We’ve been down here with you since you passed out. We’ll go find out and let you know.” She grabs Dad again. “Let’s go, crazy man.”

Mom kisses my head. “I’ll leave you two to talk with Dr. Cantor alone. I’ll be right outside if you need me.”

“Thanks, Mom.”

She closes the door leaving me, Collin, and Dr. Cantor. I look up at her. “How far along am I?”

“It’s very early. Just a few weeks in. I’m not sure an over-the-counter pregnancy test would have even detected it yet. Only a blood test. We can do an ultrasound to give you an exact due date, but you’re better off waiting another month for that, there won’t be much to see. Your blood pressure was very low, which is likely why you fainted. Have you been a little sleep-deprived the past few nights?”

“Yes.” I can feel Collin squeeze me.

“You need to get more sleep. Please also make sure you’re eating and drinking a lot. I’ll have the nurse leave you with some information and prenatal vitamins. Good luck and congratulations.”

“Thank you.”

The doctor unhooks the machines monitoring my body and then leaves, closing the door behind her. I turn in the bed, so Collin and I are face to face. He has a huge shit-eating grin on his face. “Why are you so damn happy right now?”

“Because now you’re stuck with me forever.”

“That’s what you want? Forever?”

“Hell yes.” He rubs my face. “I love you. You’re my forever. I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life. I’ll probably start calling you my baby mama though.”

I let out a breath. “I don’t know how this happened.”

“Well, when a penis goes in a vagina…”

I smack his chest. “I’m being serious. I’m on the pill. We always use condoms.”

“Hmm, not always.”

I look at him in question.

He shamefully mumbles, “The bar in Mexico.”

My eyes widen in realization. “Oh my god. Our fucking baby was conceived on a swing in a bar in Mexico surrounded by fifty other people. And I had a butt plug in my ass.”

He starts laughing.

I just shake my head. “It’s not funny. I can’t believe you’re so happy about this.”

“I’m ecstatic.” He rubs a damn erection against me. “We don’t have to use condoms for nine months. Totally worth you getting pregnant.”

“I can’t believe you’re hard right now.” I motion down my hospital gown-clad body. “This does it for you?”
