Running a hand through her long dark brown hair, she looked at herself in the mirror, nervous about her first date with Jude. They were going to lunch that day and he was picking her up at two, since her last class had ended at twelve forty five and she wanted time to get ready before going out with him.

She sighed, not liking how her favorite shirt looked on her now that she suddenly had a little bit of a baby bump that appeared sometime between when she went to bed last night and the time she woke up that morning. It just didn't look right now.

She took off the shirt, throwing it on the bed and pulling on a tank top, then pulling on a black sweatshirt over it.

She heard the knock on the door.

"He's here Mads!!!" Katie yelled from downstairs.

Maddie grabbed her purse and started walking downstairs.

"You're wearing that on a date?" Katie asked, her distaste for the outfit- a pair of skinny jeans, black vans, and black sweatshirt- showing. "Yeah... Nothing fits right." She mumbled. Jude smiled. "You like beautiful." He told her, walking over to her and kissing her cheek. He was wearing a pair of dark jeans, a black T-shirt, and of course, the leather vest, that he called a 'cut'.

"Thanks." She whispered to him, shyly.

"You just need the next size up, just borrow one of my shirts>" She said, as if it were no big deal.

Maddie rolled her eyes. "Can we not have this conversation right now? I think I look fine, or at least I did." She said before grabbing her purse and walking out of the door.

"What was that about?" Jude asked, once Madelyn walked outside.

"She's been like that all day, hormones I think. She is showing now, so I think it's more real to her now.' Katie said quietly, looking out of the window at Maddie sitting in Jude's jeep.

"She wasn't showing yesterday, does it happen that fast?" He asked, confused.

"Yeah, I guess so, I mean, she is small, so it shows, not very much, just a little." She said, shrugging. He sighed. "Is she okay?" He asked, knowing her best friend would know if she wasn't.

"Yeah, don't worry about her, just take her to have a good time, she needs it. Have her back by midnight." Katie said, jokingly.

"Bye, Katie. Oh, and my friend, Mac, said he had a good time with you and asked why you haven't called him, I didn't know you two had hit it off." He said, with a knowing smile.

She rolled her eyes. "Go take her on a date." Katie said, pushing Jude out of the doorway. He laughed, shaking his head as he walked over to his jeep, getting in the driver's seat.

"I think you look beautiful today, and that's perfect for our date, we're having dinner, then going back to the club house to hang out, watch movies or whatever." He said, starting the jeep. "That okay with you?" He asked her.

She smiled at him. "That's perfect." She whispered.

He nodded. "What do you want to eat?" He asked her, letting her decide as he drove to the part of town where all the good places were located.

"Pizza?" She asked, hopefully.

"Seriously? Pizza? On a date?" He asked her, smirking.

She laughed. "I'm craving it." She told him, crossing her arms, she knew it wasn't what he was expecting.

He nodded. "Pizza it is, do you want to just to go the club house and have it delivered or eat at a pizza place?" He asked her, stopping at a red light.

She thought for a second. "Can we just have it delivered? I know it's weird for a first date, to not go out to eat, but I would rather just hang out at your house." She told him, honestly.

He smiled at her. "I like that idea. We can hang out in my room at the club house and order it, and watch movies." He said, as he drove to the club house.

Once they got there, he parked and walked around to her side of the jeep and opened the door for her.

"There shouldn't be that many people here, I think they all went out tonight, or most of them did at least." He said, taking her hand and walking inside with her.

They went straight to the back of the club house and he opened the door to what looked like the master bedroom, it had a bathroom attached to it. It was the room she woke up in when they had hooked up. She walked in and looked around.

"This brings back memories." She said with a smile.

He laughed. "Really? What kind of memories?" He asked, walking over to sit on the bed.

"I remember..." She paused, blushing. "And I remember waking up and looking around, confused, and then I remembered everything, and left." She said, shaking her head.

"Yeah I was pretty upset that you left while I was asleep." He told her, pulling her down to sit next to him on the bed. She laughed, surprised. "Why?" She asked.

"Because, I liked you Maddie, I wanted to talk to you before you left, but when I woke up you were gone and you didn't even leave your number. I was happy to see you when you came in." He said with a smile.

She smiled a little. "Then I told you that I was pregnant, I bet you weren't so glad anymore." She whispered.

"No, I was surprised, but I want this baby, and I was glad that you told me about it and didn't just hide it from me." He told her, putting his hand on her stomach gently. She smiled. "Well, I wasn't going to, but Katie talked me into it.' She told him honestly.

"I'm glad you did." He whispered before leaning in slowly, when his lips touched hers, he lifted up his hand and gently ran it through her hair. She kissed him back,

He slowly pulled away and took a deep breath. "So, what kind of pizza are you craving?" He asked, taking out his phone.

She took a couple of deep breathes. "Pepperoni, sausage, green bell pepper, onions and hot sauce." She said softly. He looked at her like she was crazy. "I'll put on the hot sauce when it gets here." She said. He laughed. "On pizza? I usually put crushed red peppers, but I guess hot sauce would work too." He said, before dialing the number to his favorite little pizza place.

"Twenty minutes for pick up, and an hour for delivery, it's only a few blocks away, want me to just go pick it up?" He asked her. She shook her head, right as her stomach growled, loudly and embarrassingly.

He laughed, shaking his head.

"Hey Tony, my girl is really hungry I'll just come get it." He said into the phone before hanging up. She laughed. "Hey, I could have waited." She told him. He really didn't have to go drive to get it, she wasn't that hungry.

He smile at her, leaning down over her as she sat on the bed. "I don't mind. He whispered, kissing her forehead.

"We sure do kiss a lot now." Maddie said.

He looked down at her with a smile. "Well, maybe I like kissing you, Maddie." He said.

"Well, maybe I like kissing you back, Jude." She whispered, ad let out a squeak as he pulled her up off of the bed so that she was standing.

"Good." He said before kissing her, and it was the most intense kiss that she had ever had.

"I should go get the pizza." He said, ten minutes later, now, they were lying in bed, they had been making out for the last ten minutes.

"Okay." She whispered, sitting up and putting her shoes on. "You can stay here if you want, I'll only be gone a minute." He told her, running a hand through her hair. "You can pick a movie while I'm gone." He said.

She nodded, smiling up at him. "I'll pick a girly one." She said with a smirk. Jude smiled at her. "As long as it's one you want to watch and you're not just putting it on to torture me." He siad before picking up his keys.

"Be back soon, anything else you want?" He asked her. She shook her head and kissed his cheek. "Thanks." She whispered. He nodded, and walked out of the door.

She browsed through the DVD's on his shelves, but all there was were horror movies and action, and she didn't want to watch either of those, so she set up Netflix on her phone, so they could stream it to the TV.

After a couple minutes, she decided to go get a bottle of water, she was supposed to drink a lot of water, her doctor siad, and she was seriously lacking today.

As she got into the kitchen, she heard a noise from the stairs, but she knew there would be other people in the house.

She opened the fridge, taking out a bottle of water. "Hey." She heard a familiar voice from behind her. She turned around to see Kandy.

"Hi." Maddie said, walking around her, to go back to Jude's room.

"What are you doing here?" Kandy sneered.

"Oh I just came to install the wifi." Maddie said, sarcastically, not stopping her walked toward Jude's room.

Kandy grabbed her arm, making her turn around. "Don't touch me." Maddie said, calmly.

"You need to leave, before you came along, I was with Jude, and if you weren't here, I still would be." She said, her eyes visibly darkening.

"If you meant anything to him, he would be with you right now, not me." Maddie told her.

As soon as Maddie said the words, she was punched, right in the mouth, then, from there, it's all a blur.

Maddie punched Kandy back, then grabbed her by her hair, and Kandy grabbed her hair also.

"Hey!!!" A slightly familiar voice yelled. Both girls ignored it as they slapped and punched each other.

Suddenly, Maddie felt arms wrap around her waist. "Both of you, let go." The voice said. Maddie was too caught up in the fight to turn and see who it was.

Neither girl let go.

"Now!!!" The voice boomed. Both girls immediately let go. Maddie turned around to see Mac.

"What happened?" He asked.

Both girls were silent.

"Really? Silence?" Mac asked.

Maddie crossed her arms.

"Kandy, go to your room." Mac said, turning to face Kandy.

With one more glare to Maddie, Kandy went upstairs.

"Maddie, let me clean up your cuts." He said, pulling out a chair.

"I'm fine." She whispered.

"Have you seen your face? Kandy definitely got the worst of it, but you got a cut lip and she scratched your face, I have to clean it." He said. "I'll do it." She whispered, taking the rubbing alcohol and cotton balls.

"Fine, go to Jude's room, I'll let him know what happened. It would be easier if you told me what this was about." He said.

After a few seconds of silence, Mac sighed. "Fine." He said, and Maddie walked up to Jude's room.

She went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror, she had a bruise forming on the corner of her mouth and a cut in the middle of her bottom lip, and three lines of scratch marks on her cheek, from Kandy's fake, pointy nails.

She sighed. The door slammed.

"Maddie, where are you?" Jude asked. She turned around and saw him. He was pissed. "Hi." She whispered.

He glared at her.

"I leave for twenty fucking minutes and you get into a fight?" He asked, raising his voice.

"What are you thinking?" He asked.

"She started it." Maddie said, crossing her arms.

He rolled his eyes. "She doesn't know that you're pregnant Maddie, you do." He said.

She frowned. "I know." She whispered.

"Are you okay?" He asked, taking her head in his hands and inspecting her. "Did you get hit in the stomach?" He asked her.

"No. Just the face." She said quietly. He nodded. "Good." He said, picking up the rubbing alcohol and the cotton balls. He cleaned the cuts on her face and shook his head.

"How am I supposed to trust you to take care of yourself and my baby when you get into a fight just a couple minutes after I leave?" He asked her.

"Don't worry about it. I can take care of myself." She mumbled. He rolled his eyes. "Yeah, I can see that, Kandy looks terrible, but so do you, beautiful. And you're the one who is pregnant with my baby, not Kandy, I don't care how she looks." He said.

Maddie nodded.

"Let's eat and watch the movie, okay?" He asked her. She nodded and they walked over to the bed and sat down, getting the paper plates out. He sat down next to her and started the movie that she picked out.
