Marco Pov
I couldn't think straight about what I saw, was it the random guy she hook up with or is my mind messing with me? I walked towards the trash and look for the test but I was gone? I swear I threw it out where did it go? I go towards Janna apartment and knock, Jackie answers with a small smile "What's up, did I forget something?" "Are you pregnant?" Jackie started to laugh "Are you insane? I'm not why would you think that?"

I was so confused "I saw a pregnancy test on my couch, I threw it away and washed my hands but when I read it, it was positive? Jackie please tell me who's the father or if your really are?" I was really worried, what if she is? I just kicked her out my home and she doesn't have money for things for the baby, even if it's not mine I still care "Marco..you don't need to get in this, you wanted to be happy and I want to be happy, don't worry about me okay?"

I was still confused if she is or not and if she came back to the apartment to get it back "Jackie please..who's the father?" She looked at me while she wrapped her arms around her waist "I don't know.." she said with a tear falling down from her sea foam green eyes "I'm here for you okay? I'll always be there for you, your not alone" I pulled her into a hug and she cried a bit and held tight "I'm scared.." she manages to say barely against my chest "I know.."

I was scared myself..it could be mine for all the time, we did hook up during thanksgiving break, we were a little tipsy and it led to things, but she also hooked up with another guy so it could be either one of us "Am I even ready?" She says as she pushed away from me "You wanted kids right? You love kids Jackie I've seen you with your little cousins and at the daycare you used to work at, you'll be a great mother" she wipes her face as she chuckles a bit "I guess..can I be real with you?"

I nodded "When I met Star, I noticed the way she would look or hear you, I kinda felt like she likes you the way I like you..I let it pass because I know you wouldn't go behind my back and hurt me but I did..I could also tell the way you looked at her, like she was the one, your eyes sparkled whenever you two were together..I wanted to know..would you date her?" I blush a bit and looked away from her gaze "Marco? Be honest, we aren't together anymore its totally fine" I sigh and bit my bottom lip

"I would but not off the bat, maybe months later or so, I want to process being on my own you know, it takes time building a relationship, you can't just ask someone off the bat like in this generation nowadays" Jackie nods "So, you would? Is it because you like her or you want to protect her from harm? Or where she came from such as her family being rich?" I stayed silent I never cared for protecting her because she's capable but other times she isn't, even for her money it didn't matter

"..I like her for who she is and not what she has or anything? She has a kind heart and people take her for granted, I never took her for granted because it's wrong..I wanna protect her from people who try to hurt her in anyway but she doesn't need me to, because she's tough on her own that's another thing I like from her"

Jackie smirked "How long do you guys hang out?" "Every other day, bug it's never long because she has doctor appointments or she has something important to do or I'm working" Jackie looked at me and down her feet

"So, you love her? Like you used to love me?" I stayed still as I thought of words that wouldn't sound rude or mean to upset her "It would be a lie if I didn't..during the months I spent away from you I kinda fell for her but I stayed faithful to you whenever she was near, I never kissed her or did anything that would count as cheating, but yes I do, I'm sorry"

she shakes her head and stayed silent throughout the time being "if she could see your face, she would've been drooling over you..treat her the way she should and don't hurt her" I smirked and hugged Jackie "I won't, and don't forget I'm here for you"

She nods and yawns "Okay, well I better head to bed..see you" I nod and wave at her "Okay, bye Jackie have a nice night" she nods and enters the apartment leaving me in the empty hallway thinking how all of this is going to go down..

The next couple days Christmas was upon us and I was less then cherry well if course I'm thankful for my parents but it's kinda weighing heavy that I could possibly be a dad "Hey you okay" I looked down at star as she held the small gift I brought  her

"Yeah I'm okay, go on and open your present" she giggles and opens it with an adorable smile plastered on her face "Marco is this..." "Yeah a bracelet well more as a charm you like it?" She nods and hugs me right as she sits down on her sofa she grabs my hand which makes me jump a bit "Marco something is wrong I could feel it, go on and tell me?"

I wasn't sure if I should even say a thing it's kinda personal after all "Star..I can't really say it..hope you understand I'm glad your worried but right now..I really can't tell you" she lowers her head and takes her small hands away I regretted not telling her but I can't it's not her busy and the baby could end up not being mine

"Okay whenever you want to open up I'm here, thanks for the gift I hoped you enjoyed your gift" I felt bad during the date I was texting Jackie and didn't really enjoy it as I planned but I will make it up to her "Yeah, star maybe we can go on another one?" She smiled and nods "Yeah definitely I'll be up for that" as we said our goodbyes I heard someone clearing their voice when I looked it was Destiny

"Not so fast, you both are under the mistletoe so a kiss, go on" I blushed a bit and star looked a little annoyed "Destiny, um Marco isn't in a good mood, I'm sorry Marco" I chuckled and pulled her and kissed her, her lips tasted like hot cocoa and mint as I moved her face was flushed "Merry Christmas" as I opened the door and walked out

"Marco! She wasn't expecting that!" I laughed at Destiny  and drove over to my parents, they finally returned from their vacations we were getting the family together  since Star was spending it with family, I need time to be honest
