Chapter 32
~Time skip~
Alex's POV
John and I sat on the plane silently, my head resting on his shoulder. Herc and Laf were in the row across from us and the kids were in the row behind us.
"Did you enjoy Disney?" John asked me. I looked up at him and nodded.
"Yeah." He intertwined our hands together and kissed my wedding ring. "I'm just ready to go home. So much happened."
"I know baby. But, we have to take Angie to the doctors." He reminded me. "I still can't believe our baby girl is pregnant."
"Me neither. Can we take our anger out during sex when we get home?" I asked, playing with his hair.
"Of course." He kissed me gently. I kissed back and played with the small hairs on his neck.
"I miss everyone. Especially Liza." Liza was my best friend just like Peggy was John's.
"I don't wanna go back to work." John whined. "I hate those kids sometimes."
"Me too. But hey, at least we can keep an eye on Angelica." I pointed out the small bright side. "I'm scared of what's gonna happen when she starts showing. I've seen the kids at this school. They aren't nice."
"She's gonna be okay. I promise. Nathaniel is a senior. Everyone knows not to mess with him and if he's dating Angelica, he's gonna protect her." John soothed.
"You're right." I sighed. "How did we let this happen?"
"Things happen, baby." He kissed my forehead. "We can't control everything even if we want to."
"I'm so glad I married you." I smiled, looking up to his eyes. He squeezed my hand and smiled back.
"I am too." He kissed my ring once again.
Phillip’s POV
I sighed. Nathaniel and Angelica were being cute and cuddly, and I don't even get to see Daniel till Miranda's homecoming. Yes, I asked him and he gladly said yes.
I'm scared to face George at school. Hopefully he doesn't say anything to me.
I'm also scared for Angie. I mean, she's my baby sister. It's my job to protect her.
"Philly, are you okay?" Angelica put her hand on my knee.
I shook my head no. "Can we talk at home?" She nodded and laid her head on my shoulder. I stroked her hair.
She was holding Nathaniel’s hand, who was smiling at us. She sighed and squeezed my knee.
All three of us were silent. I pulled st my earbuds. "I'm gonna watch a movie." Angelica nodded and cuddled into Nathaniel.
A few hours later, we arrived at JFK. The plane landed and I helped Angie get her stuff from the overhead. She smiled and thanked me.
We got off the plane and I heard my Uncle Herc groaning in delight. "Finally. That plane ride wasn't as bad as the one from Ireland but man, I needed to get up." We all laughed.
"Eliza is picking us up. She's already outside so we need to get to baggage claim quickly." We did as Pops said and met Aunt Liza outside.
"Ahhh!" She hugged us all. "I missed you guys so much! Angelica, Little E has been asking for you. She misses you so much."
"Aww. I miss her too." Angie smiled and hugged Aunt Liza back. We all gave her hugs and Uncle Herc put our stuff in the trunk of her van.
It took 20 minutes to get home. I ran upstairs to my room and flopped on my bed. Angie followed me up. I heard her laugh as she came in. "Pip, you're such a goof." She sat on the edge of the bed.
"So what's going on?" She crossed her legs. "What do you need to talk to me about?"
I took a deep breath and rolled up my sleeves. She gasped and tears pricked at her eyes. "Pip." She gently grazed the scars with careful fingers. "Why?"
"Angie, nothing is going right for me. You're pregnant, George was cheating on me I'm pretty sure, school is becoming a lot for me." I wiped away her tears. "Cutting was my safe haven. It was just me and the razor."
She pulled me into a strong hug. "Phillip, you know you can always talk to me." She sobbed. "That would've been a better option than harming yourself. What if you weren't careful? I could've lost you." She gripped the back of my sweatshirt.
"I know. And I regret not telling you sooner. Only you, Daniel, and George know about this. I'm scared to tell Dad and Pops. I stopped though."
I felt her head nod. She pulled away and I caressed her cheek. "Please don't cry, Ange." I wiped the tears off her face. "I love you." I kissed her forehead and held her.
"I love you too Pip." She pulled away, covering her mouth. "Excuse me."
She ran off to the bathroom. A few seconds later, I heard vomiting. I rushed in and rubbed her back.
"I hate being pregnant." She cried, hovering over the toilet.
"I know Ange." She finished and wiped her mouth. She stood up and brushed her teeth. "I'm going to go take a nap."
I nodded and we both left the bathroom, entering our respective rooms.
Theo’s POV(woah, a new one)
Joseph and I sat curled up on his bed. "You're so beautiful." I giggled and he kissed my nose.
His siblings Maria and John were downstairs making a ruckus. Joseph, being the oldest, was tired of it.
We ran up here and locked the door, his parents were fine with it. "Do you plan on going to homecoming?" I asked him.
"Yeah. I plan on taking you." I smiled widely and he leaned down to kiss me. I gladly kissed back. We had our first kiss a while back. Almost a week ago.
His hand rubbed my back and snaked down to my pants. I pulled away from the kiss. "Not yet, please. I'm sorry I'm not ready for that."
"It's okay." He held my face. "I love you Theo."
"I love you too Joseph." We kissed again. Then my phone rang. "It's Angelica."
"Hamilton?" I nodded. "You're friends with her?"
"Yeah, she's my best friend. Surprised?" He nodded and I laughed as I answered. "Hey Angie!"
"Theo, I need you to come over. Something happened and I need to tell you." She was so calm.
"Of course. I'll be right over." I hung up. "Something's wrong." I kissed Joseph. "I'm sorry but I have to go."
"It's okay. See you at school." I smiled and waved as I left.
I drove to Angie's and knocked on the door. She opened it and dragged me upstairs to her room, Nathaniel was sitting on her bed.
"Hey Theo." He said.
"Hey. If you need to tell me that you guys are dating, I already know. Everyone does."
"No it's not that." Nathaniel held Angie's hand. "Theo, something happened in Florida."
Angelica put her hands on her stomach. "I'm pregnant." She said.
"Shut up. Angelica are you serious?" She nodded. I put a hand over my mouth. "But-but school! Cheer!"
"Relax Theo. We're gonna be okay." She soothed. Nathaniel pulled her into his arms. "We told our parents and Pip. We thought you deserved to know too."
"Theo, how would you like to an aunt Angelica and I have been thinking, and we've known you our whole lives. We want you to be a part of our baby's life too." Nathaniel smiled.
"I-I'd love that." I responded. Angelica squealed and hugged me. I chuckled and hugged her back.
We pulled away, smiling. "So, other than getting it on," I wiggled my eyebrows. "How was the trip?"
"Amazing." Angelica replied. Nathaniel nodded and smiled. "Nath asked me to go to homecoming with him!"
"Oh my god!" I grinned. "That's amazing. Joseph asked me too!" Then my phone rang. I answered and it and then hung up after the conversation. "My dad wants me to come home. I'm sorry Ange."
"It's okay." She hugged me. "Bye T."
"Bye."
~Three days later~
Angelica's POV
I swung my legs back and forth as I sat on the examination table. I played with my fingers, looking down at my feet.
Father came over and rubbed my back. "Hey, it's gonna be okay." He pressed a kiss to my head. "I'm sorry Nathaniel couldn't be here." Nathaniel sadly had to work this week.
"It's okay. I'm just glad you're here. And Dad too." He looked up from his book and smiled.
"Scoot over kiddo." Father said. I giggled and did. He picked me up and sat down on his lap. "Your dad and I love you so much. You know that right."
"I know. I love you guys too. I'm just sorry for getting pregnant."
"Ssh. It's okay. All of us are gonna be okay."
A knock came at the door and the doctor walked in. She had a bright, cheery smile. "Good afternoon. My name is Dr.Lapen."
Father took my hand and held it. I squeezed it as the doctor washed her hands.
"Alright so, you're here for a confirmation of pregnancy correct." I nodded and the appointment went on.
About 20 minutes later, we were leaving the office.
"Well, this is real. I'm actually pregnant." I held the ultrasound pictures in my hand.
"Hey, just breathe. Think of the good things. Like homecoming next week!" Dad pointed out. "Herc said your dress came in. He's working on tailoring it to fit you."
"Homecoming. Oh I can't wait!"
