Emily

I walk into the CVS and look around for the family planning aisle. I never understood this, they have condoms in the family planning aisle. Shouldn't that be the anti family planning aisle?

I shake my head and head to the back. It's almost like deja vu, here I am again probably pregnant with Braxton's baby.

I grab two of the tests that say PREGNANT or NOT PREGNANT because reading the lines seems like a challenge at the moment.

I walk up to the register and the cashier looks at my hand, when she doesn't see a ring she gives me a smile filled with pity.

I pick up Cora and we drive home. I swear it feels like I'm on pins and needles, can this really be happening? Again?

I set Cora up with her dolls and give her some goldfish. That should keep her occupied long enough to pee on these sticks.

After I'm done I set them on the counter and wash my hands.

The timer is set and now I've just got to wait 3 minutes. What if he doesn't want more kids? He didn't even ask for Cora, but then again he is such a good dad to her. He obviously loves her, so this can't be a bad thing. Plus, I loved having Ethan growing up, I know having a sibling would be amazing for Cora.

The timer dings and I take a deep breath before walking into the bathroom. I look down and see two PREGNANT tests.

I breathe out a sigh of relief, I didn't even know I was hoping that I would be pregnant, but I know deep down this is not a bad thing. I'm actually excited, I get to be a mom again.

Now I just need to find a way to tell Braxton. I would ask someone for ideas, but he deserves to be the first to know.

I can only hope he is excited too. After all, I'm accidentally pregnant with his child for the second time.

After searching around on Pinterest for a little while, I come up with a scavenger hunt. I start making little cards and directions. Cora even helps me until my mom picks her up, but she doesn't know what it's for yet.

Once they are all written up I look them over, I have 10 clues. The first starts on the front door and the last one ends in the oven.

By the time Braxton gets over to our house it's already 6:30. I'm still a little worried, but I'm actually excited and it's kinda nice because Cora is having a sleepover at my parents tonight. It had been planned for a while, so no one suspects anything yet.

"Hey Em. How was your day? And what's this on the door?" He's completely oblivious that once again he knocked me up, but not for long.

"Hey, Brax. It was good, but I have a surprise for you. Read it out loud."
