of the process but I have been told once you’re holding your baby you forget all about feeling bad.”
    “I hope. This sucks,” I said truthfully.
    Dr. Fleming chuckled. “Well, we will see if we can get you some medicine to help you feel better.”
    “Thank you.”
    “I’m going to have you go ahead and lay back, letting your legs drop as far apart as you can. You may feel some discomfort but I’m just checking to see how far along you are.”
    Dr. Fleming looked up at me and said, “You feel to be a day or two over nine weeks. We should be able to hear the heartbeat and then I will send you to ultrasound to get a definite due date.”
    Chewing on the inside of my cheek I nodded. “Ok.”
    I was going to hear my ba by. I was going to see my baby.
    Holy shit.
    Dr. Fleming pulled out a small radio looking thing with a rod hooked to it at one end. Grabbing a small bottle he said, “This gel may be a little cold, sorry.”
    He pulled my shirt up, exposing my belly and squirted the cold jelly on my belly, giving me a cold chill.
    I shut my eyes and waited. Then, I heard it. The most amazing sound in the world. The sound of my baby.
    Feeling a tear slide down my face I reached up and swiped it away. Opening my eyes I looked at my mom who had tears filling her eyes. Jenna was smiling ear to ear.
    I raised up on my elbows and asked, “Does it sound good?”
    Dr. Fleming brought his eyes to mine and said, “Your baby sounds perfect. Now let’s get you set up across the hall so we can see your little baby and get you a due date.”
    Dr. Fleming left so I could get dressed and my nurse walked us across the hall to the where ultrasound technician was waiting for us.
    “Hi, Cobie. My na me is Connie. Go ahead and take a seat on the table, raising your shirt for me.”
    After I was laying on the table my mom grabbed my left hand and Jenna grabbed my right hand. I was so glad they were here. No way could I have done this alone.
    Once Connie was setup she shut the light off and squirted more goo on my belly. “Let’s find that little baby of yours, shall we?”
    Was I really ready to see my baby? To make this all real? Was I ready to be a mom? Could I be a mom?
    Giving her a small smile I nodded.
    “Ok, sweetie, just look at the screen in front of you. See this little spot?” Connie used the arrow on the screen to point to a blobby looking thing.
    “Yes.”
    “That’s your baby. Baby is measuring nine weeks, two days. Does that sound correct to you?”
    Counting back in my head, nine weeks ago was Evie’s birthday party.
    Gage was the father.
    I was having a baby with the NFL’s playboy. The guy that was in love with Jenna. The guy I told we would have one night and go our separate ways. How the hell do I tell him this? Oh, hey Gage. Remember opening night of your bar ? Well, gotcha! I was just kidding about the one night thing. Guess what…you’re going to be a dad! One night just turned into eighteen years! Jokes on you, buddy!
    Staring at the screen, at the tiny little blob I slowly nodded my head. “Gage and I are having a baby.”
    Jenna squeezed my hand, tears sliding down her face. “He’s going to make an amazing father.”
    Conni e moved her wand around until the room was filled with the swishing sound again. “That’s your baby’s heartbeat, a strong one hundred and seventy six.
    Handing me a few paper towels Connie instructed me to clean up then handed me five little pictures of my baby.
    “Dr. Fleming would like to see you in four weeks. Before you leave just stop at the front desk and they can schedule your appointment.”
    “Ok, thank you.”
    Seeing my baby made everything real. Made my baby real. Made what happened between Gage and me real.
    How do I tell Gage that I’m having his baby?
    I made my appointment and walked to my mom’s car in a daze. Before I realized we were pulling into the driveway.
    Before telling Gage, I somehow had to tell my over protective brother what was going on. I
