Chapter 9

Author's Note, So sorry I haven't uploaded in a long time. I've been busy. But here is another chapter. Hope you guys like it. I don't really like it. But I just wanted to get something up for you guys.



"Kock kncok knock". I stood up and answered the door. "Ahhhhhhh!" I screamed. Zack is standing on my front porch.  I threw my arms around him and hugged him tightly. I planted my lips on his.


"Babe your back!" I exclaimed.


"Yeah I am," he replied. "I've missed you so much."


"I've missed you too. Come in and get out of the heat," I told him. We sat down on the couch and he put an arm around my shoulders. I snuggled up against him. My mom walked in then.


"Oh Zack your back," she said surprised.


"Yes he is mom," I said.


"Erika can I talk to you?" she asked.


"Umm sure mom," I replied.


We walked into the kitchen. "Erika sweetie you need to tell him now. I know he probab;y just got back but you still need to tell him. And now would be best," she told me.


"Mom I will tell him. I promise," I answered her. I walked out and told Zack to come to my room with me.


When we got into my room I turned and faced him," There is something I need to tell you. It's something big and Iu don't know how you are going to take this. But I'm pregnant."


"Erika don't kid around," he laughed.


"I'm not joking Zack!" I yelled. "I'm really pregnant with your child."


"Are you serious!" he said.


"Yes," I replied.


He just stood there shaking his head saying, "no no no."


"Zack baby look at me," I instructed him. He looked at me and I took his face into my hands, "It'll be alright. I promise. But here's the thing. I'm moving out of my parents house. My mom told me that if I don't move out before I have this baby she is going to kick me out. So I have to move out. I wanted to tell you all this but I wanted to wait until you got back. I'm sorry I know this is a lot to process. But I would like you to move in with me."


"Erika I don't know if we are ready to move in together," he confessed.


"Why not?! We are going to have a baby together!" I exclaimed.


"Exactly! We are going to have a baby! I'm not ready to have a baby. Hell I don't even know if I still want to be with you!" he yelled.


"What do you mean you don't know if you still want to be with me?" I asked.


"When I was in boot camp I was always worried that you were cheating on me. I got to thinking abou what will happen when I go on aleave. Will you cheat on me then? Then I asked myself why am I with you? I can't think of one reason why I am with you," he said.


"I didn't cheat on you. I didn't even think about it. I love you," I told him.


"Babe I know you love me. But you can't tell me that we are ready to move in together," he said.


"I don't know at least can we try?" I asked.


"What happens if it doesn't work out?" he asked.


"Then you can move back in with your parents," I told him.


"Let me think about it. But right now I need to get home. I wanted you to be the first person I saw when I got back," he said.


I nodded my head and stood on my tip toes and kissed him. When he was out of my room I flopped down on my bed. That didn't go as I expected it to. I hope he will come through and realize that we are meant to be together forever. I don't want him out of my life.
