It's been a few days since Jack died, it took a lot for them to get Arabella away from his dead body, it took Stephen and Gerald helping her get up and bringing her to Alice and Logan who were too late by the time they got to them. Arabella hasn't been sleeping or eating much, she's hiding the fact that she hasn't slept with makeup and she just claims she doesn't feel good when it comes to meals. Alice knew something wasn't totally right with Arabella, but she didn't push her. Arabella was sitting with the girls by the pool, all in their bikinis.

Amber was sitting right next to Arabella as Devin and Bri walk towards the group of girls,

"what's up?" Devin asks as he locks eyes with Arabella.

Arabella's face goes emotionless and Alice notices first, which concerns her a lot since it is not good to shove your feelings deep down, they have a way of self-destructing themselves after a while.

"nothing, " Arabella snapped as she stood up, "Now go the fuck away!"

Amber stood up immediately as Stephen and Hayes came running outside after hearing Arabella snap at Devin.

"what's going on out here?!" Stephen demands, he looks from Devin to Arabella and back again.

"nothing!" Arabella snapped at him.

"calm down Ari, " Hayes says, stepping closer to her.

"dont fucking tell me what to do!" Arabella screamed before taking off towards the West Shore.

Hayes tries to follow her but Stephen stops him,

"Don't Hayes, let her be, she needs time, " Stephen says.

Hayes just nods then heads to his room.

The rest of the girls go find their boyfriends.

Haniyah and Jake get into a bad fight.

Arabella disappears out of site, Devin and Bri leave towards the East Shore, Stephen looks at Amber,

"You go check on her babe, shell talk to you."

Amber nods, then gives Stephen a kiss before heading towards the West Shore.

When she arrives Arabella is standing in the water staring out into the endlessness, Amber stops next to her,

"Ari?"

"Hmm?" she turns to amber and looks at her with her eyes filled with tears.

"im not going to ask if you're okay, because I know the answer to that, if you need to talk I'm here to listen, " Amber says, her own eyes filling with tears at the site of her best friend hurting so badly, she wish that Jack hadn't died she didn't realize how much he truly meant to Arabella.

Arabella shook her head, "I can't talk about it Amber it's too fresh in my mind and it feels like I was the one shot in the chest not Jack, I-."

She breaks down, collapses onto the ground into the water, amber quickly drops next to her and puts her arms around her hurting best friend.

"shh it's fine we don't have to talk about it, " Amber says through tears.

Arabella cries for a good half hour before she suddenly doesn't feel good, she breaks the embrace and runs towards the woods and gets sick, then gets sick again. Something doesn't feel right to Arabella, she begins to think and count in her head and then her eyes widen and she shakes her head, it can't be possible, can it? Amber helps Ari up and helps her back to the house and into Amber and Geralds room.

"ALICE!" amber screams from her room.

Alice comes running, "What's wrong?!"

"she got sick a few times, but she was fine before it happened, " Amber says worried as Stephen appears in the doorway.

Alice nods before she begins to examine Arabella, then it hits Alice,

"Im bringing her to the hospital but just her, you guys need to stay here with Logan, " alice says.

Amber nods, as Stephen asks, "Shes going to be okay right?"

"shell is just fine don't worry Stephen I'm a professional, " Alice says smiling for a moment before she says to Ari, "go change into dry clothes."

Arabella exits the room and goes to change, she comes back in jeans and one of Jacks favorite t-shirts. She leaves with Alice to the hospital.

When they arrive, alice brings her to an exam room and begins to do a work up on her, she has Arabella pee in a cup, she takes her blood and they wait until the results come back. Alice looks at Arabella and asks,

"When did you last sleep with someone?"

"a Few days ago, " Ari answers, looking up at alice.

"come with me, " alice says as she walks to the door.

Arabella follows her and they head towards xray. Alice and her go into an ultrasound room, Alice instructs her to lay down and lift her shirt, arabella does as she is told, alice uses the wand after placing cool gel on her stomach, after a moment arabella can hear a heartbeat that wasn't her own, she looks at the screen and her eyes widen and she begins to cry, alice reads the age of the baby, 8 1/2 weeks.

"But that would mean....oh my god this is Jacks baby!" Arabella says wide eyed and in shock.

"Do you want to keep him or her?" Alice asks seriously.

"Yes," Arabella says seriously, "I'm against abortion, it's not fair to abort a dead guys baby, let alone the guy I loved when I got here until he fucked up and tried to screw my friend, but I still love him Alice and it hurts to much to think of getting rid of this baby, I just don't know how I am going to tell Hayes."

"Don't stress yourself, it's not good for you or the baby," Alice says, "And Hayes won't care he loves you too much to care, it's not like you cheated or anything."

Arabella and Hayes made it official the day Jack died and told no one until after the incident was over.

"I'm scared Alice, the killer is still out there," Arabella says, "And I think I know who the fuck he is and I wanna kill him myself."

Alice took a few pictures of the baby for Arabella and printed them, "I think I know who it is too Ari."

"Devin," they both say at the same time.

"Do you also think Bris helping?" Ari asks looking up from the picture of her and Jacks baby.

Alice nods, "Yes."

Arabella and Alice leave the hospital and head home with new secrets and unsure how to tell the house about the baby.

A/n okay wow! This chapter almost made me cry!

Thoughts?

What do you think of the surprise in this chapter?

What do you think Hayes will say? Do you think he'll accidentally find the ultrasound pictures?

Tomahony1 if you would like to do a chapter on the reactions from your characters to the news, especially Hayes let me know before I post the next chapter because I plan on the house finding out about it.
