Chapter 17 - Surprise

Ashton opened the door slowly. He had opened it just a smidge, just enough that he could see me. He looked at me, then growled, "what do you mean?"

"Ashton, I didn't want to tell you this way, but," I paused, "I'm pregnant"

"Oh my god, Madds, you're not joking are you?" He asked.

"No, Ash, come here" I led him into the bathroom, and got the three positive pregnancy tests out of the trash, "see?"

"Madds, this is great, right?"

"Yeah, I'm just nervous."

"Babe, don't be. I'm not leaving you. I could never, I don't know why I told you that," he sighed, "But when did you find out?"

"This morning. I realized my period was 4 days late, so I went to the store to get tests, then came home and took them. They were all positive, and I'm 4 1/2 weeks"

"Does your mum know?"

"No, we'll have to tell our mums.. and the boys"

"Yeah. We should tell your mum when she gets home."

"Okay"

Ashton looked at me for a minute, then said, "may i?", and I knew what he meant. I laid down on my bed, and pulled up my shirt. He put his hand on my stomach and pushed down. Not hard, though, just a little bit.

"I'm not hurting you, am I?" He pulled back for a second until I shook my head no. Then, he announced, "I can feel it"

"Really?"

"Kinda. There's a hard spot right here," he moved his hand to that area, "and I think that's the baby"

"Yeah?"

"Yeah"

He put his head down to my stomach, and started whispering, "hi baby. I'm your daddy. If you're a baby boy, I'll teach you how to play drums, and I'll teach you how to get fucking beautiful girls like your mommy"

I hit him on the shoulder, "really Ash? And no swearing around the baby!"

"Fine, fine.." He continued, "and if you're a baby girl, I'll still teach you how to play drums, and I'll spoil you rotten. You're gonna be a daddy's girl"

I thought it was cute to watch Ashton speak to our baby. He knew what to say, and just what to say to the baby that would make me blush. He was gonna be a great dad.

*Ashton's POV*

I called Adam back, and told him that I couldn't break up with Madds.

"Hello?" He asked.

"Hi Adam, I needed to say that I can't break up with Madds" I told him straight forward.

"Ashton, then, I'm sorry to say it, but I'll have to drop you and the boys. And you won't be coming on the rest of the tour"

"Adam, you don't understand"

"Ashton, I told you. You need to break up with her, or I drop the band"

"But Adam, she's pregnant"

"Ashton, congratulations"

"Please don't drop the band. I couldn't break up with her, especially since she's pregnant"

"Ashton, I have to. It's either that, or you don't bring her on tour with you, but that would distact you more"

"See, Adam. Please let me bring her on tour!"

"I don't know, Ashton. The other management won't be happy"

"Adam, please!!"

"Fine. But only because I like you two as a couple"

"Really? Then why'd you try to break us up?"

"I had to do it, Ashton"

"Thanks Adam. You're the best"

*Maddison's POV*

That evening, I walked up to my mom that was at the kitchen counter making dinner with the three positive pregnancy tests in my back pocket, and I said to her, "mum, I have to tell you something"

"Oh! Me too" she seemed kinda sad when she said me too.

"You tell me first"

"Okay. We are moving to New York. I got transferred again"

"What!!!!! Mum, no, we can't!!"

"Honey, I know you like it here, but we have to"

"No, I mean Ashton. I am not having a long distance relationship!!!"

"Maddie, you'll have to, I'm sorry"

"Mum, no. I'm not leaving Sydney"

"Honey, you can't stay here just because you want to be with Ashton"

"Mum!!!!!!! I don't want to be with Ashton, I need to be with him!!!!!!"

"honey, you don't need to be with anyone"

"MUM!!!" I was getting really frustrated, "I NEED ASHTON AND MY BABY NEEDS ITS DAD!!!"

"WHAT?!?!??" I realized that I just told her, like when I told Ashton.

"Mum, look" I pulled out the pregnancy tests, "see, positive, positive, and positive: 4 1/2 weeks"

"Oh my god, Maddie, this is serious, isn't it?"

"Yeah, mum, it is. I'm pregnant with Ashton"

"I'm so sorry, Hun," she pulled me into a small hug then let me go, "I have an idea"

"What is it?"

"I'll just quit my job"

"No, mum you can't!"

"Maddie, I need to be here to support you with this baby"

"Mum, thank you so much," I engulfed her in a hug, "thank you so so so so much! Just don't tell Danielle or Logan"

"You're welcome, and I won't, honey"

I saw Ashton standing at the stairs, which were about 40 feet away from us. I let go of my mum and walked over to him.

"So, your mum is okay with it?" He asked.

"Well, she was going to move to New York because of her job, then I screamed at her. Did you hear me scream?"

"Scream what? MUM!!! I NEED ASHTON AND MY BABY NEEDS ITS DAD!!!? Nope, doesn't ring a bell"

I hit him on the shoulder and he giggled, "okay, smart aleck. But she decided to quit her job so she could stay here and support us with the baby"

"That is so nice of her"

"I know," I paused, "when are we telling your mum?"

"We are staying there tomorrow night, aren't we?"

"Oh yeah, we are"

"We can tell them at dinner"

"Okay"

------

We were sitting around the dinner table at the Irwin's, and I was sitting in between Ashton and Anne Marie. We were having spaghetti, since it was Ashton's and my favorite food. Ashton looked at me, then at his mum. He looked at me again then whispered in my ear, "want to tell her now?" I turned to him and whispered to him, "whenever". "Okay, I'll tell her now" Ashton whispered before telling his mum and siblings the news.

"Mum, Lauren, Harry, we have to tell you guys something" he announced.

"okay, honey, what is it?" Anne Marie asked.

"Want to tell them?" He asked me.

"No, you"

"Okay. Um, we're pregnant" he smiled at me.

"You're what?" Anne Marie was shocked.

"We're pregnant" I repeated.

"Oh my god, I'm gonna be an aunt!" Lauren was excited.

"That's great, guys" Anne Marie told us, "I can tell that you two love each other, and even though I'm shocked, I'm okay with you guys having a baby, I guess."

------

The next day, we were back at my house, and we had called the boys over. Ashton said that it was for a band meeting, but it wasn't. We were gonna tell them about the baby. When they got to my house at about 12, we had them come in, and sit on the couch. Ashton and I then sat on the love seat, and I had my hands on my stomach. Even though I didn't have any bump yet, it was like I was protecting the baby. The boys looked at me, and Luke said, "no offense to Maddie, but if this is a band meeting, then shouldn't it just be us?"

"It's not really a band meeting. It is, but it involves Maddie too" Ashton explained as I walked into the kitchen, grabbing the five cupcakes with blue and pink baby rattles on them. In the blue one it said, "we're" and in the pink one, it said, "pregnant". I walked back into the room, and gave Ashton one, even though he already knew about it. I offered one to each of the boys, and they took them, then read them, and freaked out.

"You're what?!" They said in unison.

"We're pregnant" Ashton repeated, putting him arm around me.

"Oh my god, guys!! Really?" Luke asked.

"Yeah, guys, it's not a joke. Madds, show them the tests" Ashton looked at me, and I pulled the tests out from my pocket and showed the boys.

"Oh my god guys, congrats!" Calum said to us after looking at the tests.

"Thanks" I said, and then I heard the doorbell ring.

"I'll get it" Ashton announced.

*Ashton's POV*

I walked over to the door and opened it. I saw Saige standing behind the door looking at me. She looked like she had been crying.

"Saige, what's wrong?" I asked her.

"Ashton, come outside for a minute" she told me, so I walked outside and closed the door behind me.

"So what is it?" I said.

"Do you remember the party?" She asked.

"At your house when we were drunk.. yeah I remember it"

"Well, I have bad news.."

"What is it?"

"I'm- I'm-" she stuttered.

No. She's not pregnant, is she? Please say she's not pregnant. She can't be, Maddie is. They both can't be pregnant from me.

"I'm pregnant" she started crying like crazy.

What have I done? I have two girls pregnant with my babies. One 4 1/2 weeks, the other around 6 1/2 weeks. This can't be happening. I shouldn't have done this to Saige.  And I can't do this to Maddie. I can't put her through this. I need to fix this. Someway, somehow.

Fix this Ashton, come on. You can't have two girls pregnant, your girlfriend and her best friend. Come on, Ashton, think of something!!!
