--- Wilbur's pov---

(time skip to the end of the week)

I felt nervous. We'd left it till the end of the week to find if I really was... pregnant. I'd got some tests. I went to the bathroom to sort it out. And when I saw the results... I just cried. Happy or sad, I don't know. 

I ran to get Quackity. He was in our room. When I showed him the test he picked me up and twirled me around.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" He asked.

"Yes." I said while nodding.

I couldn't stop myself from crying even more. So it was now all real. I was pregnant with Quackity's child. I yawned and he scooped me up in his arms and laid me in the bed. I went to sleep immediately.

--- Quackity's pov---

I couldn't believe it. Wilbur was actually pregnant. I left him sleeping. I went and sat on the stairs. Should I tell anyone? No, he should get to tell everyone first.

I was still thinking about Wilbur when I heard a loud crash coming from downstairs. I ran down to see what it was. I saw George on the floor with Dream next to him trying to help him. Karl was sleepily holding onto Sapnap's arm and Sapnap was trying not to laugh.

"What happened?" I asked.

"I dropped George." Said Dream.

I stood next to Sapnap and Karl, trying not to laugh too. 

"Where's Wilbur?" Asked Sapnap.

"Sleeping." I said.

I didn't want to mention the pregnancy. Just then I heard a door slamming, loud footsteps and then another door slamming.

"I'm gonna go out and buy some painkillers." I said. "Wilbur's gonna run out soon."

I messaged Wilbur before leaving. I didn't want him to go looking for me but with me not being there. 

I drove around until I found a store which looked like it sold medicine. After walking in I immediately found the painkillers. I grabbed a couple of packets and then looked around to see if there was anything else which could help Wilbur. There wasn't much so I paid and drove back.

When I got back I went upstairs to our room to drop off the painkillers. Wilbur was getting changed. When he finished he grabbed onto my arm and we left the room together.

"Do you want to tell them?" I asked. "You don't have to."

He nodded but then said, "I'll tell them when I'm ready though."

I nodded and then kissed his forehead. He continued clinging to me as we walked into the kitchen. I sat down at the table and then pulled Wilbur onto my lap. He looked so stressed. 

"I'm gonna go call my mum." He said, slipping off of my lap.

"You okay Wilbur?" George asked when he came back. "You never usually call your mum."

"Yeah, I'm fine." He said. "Just had some news to tell her."

"What news?" Asked Karl.

"That I'm pregnant." Wilbur said.

Everyone crowded round him and congratulated him before he came and sat on my lap again.

(Short time skip)

We were all supposed to be streaming later in the day. I just sat in the back on my phone. I just couldn't stop thinking about everything. It was all so overwhelming. I kept clutching at my stomach. It was hard to believe that I was actually going to have a child. And to think that this all started out because I wanted to go and visit my friends. I was looking through my phone when I got a call. I walked off stream.

"Hello." I said.

"Hey Will. We need you to come back to the UK in a few weeks."

"Why?" I asked.

"Your cousin has died. And we're doing the funeral in about six weeks."

"Oh, okay." I said, I felt myself tear up.

I'd been a bit distant my cousin in the past few years, although we did get along well. And now they were dead. I finished off the call and then went upstairs to my room instead of going back to the stream.
