"Dad." I breathed out and glanced over at Colby. He was watching my dad cautiously. "ARE YOU PREGNANT." He boomed causing me to flinch back. "Yes." I whispered and watched him turn on his heal, storming away from us. "Dad please!" I cried out and started to run after him, Colby held me back for a second, "Cora wait. Give him a second." He said lowly, "no! I can't! Dad!" I yelled and slipped out of Colby's grasp running after my dad.
"Daddy I'm sorry!" I cried out as he turned to me, glaring at me and rubbing his jaw, "you're meaning to..." he took a deep breath, closing his eyes before opening them again, he paused for what felt like forever. "you're meaning to tell me...I'm gonna be a grandpa?" He said and cracked a smile, letting his face soften completely. He let out a small laugh as I stared at him in disbelief, "y-you're not mad?" I whimpered as he came up and hugged me, "no of course not! Cora you were literally an unplanned pregnancy, I'm no hypocrite." I laughed as he rocked me back and forth, "you scared me!" I whined and hugged him tighter.
"Can I tell y'all something?" He said and let go of me I nodded as he reached to hug Colby, "of course." I said causing him to laugh, "I knew you were pregnant the minute I saw you at the airport. " I looked at him as he pulled away from Colby, "what? I'm not even really showing yet." I said and looked down at my belly. Colby wrapped his arms around me as we both stared at my dad "I don't know. Dad intuition I guess." I smiled as Colby kissed the side of my head.
"So how far along are you squirt? You've been taking vitamins I would hope. And did you fall through the floor when you were pregnant? I can't believe how much of a bad ass you've become." I laughed at how excited he was, "Only 6 weeks, yes I got vitamins the other day from the doctor, and yes I was pregnant when that happened but I didn't know at the time." I said answering all the questions, "yeah if we knew at the time she wouldn't have been with us, that's for sure." Colby said and tightened his grip on me.

"Are you feeling better by the way?" Colby said and looked down at me, "yeah, I wish I could keep food down better." I mumbled as my dads face perked up again, "I know just the thing, you guys go get comfortable, I'm gonna whip something up for you." He said and smiled widely. Seeing him so happy made my heart soar, I loved my dad so much and all I wanted was for him to be happy.
Colby and I walked back to the living room as dad started pulling stuff out of cupboards. "You okay?" Colby said as we sat down on the couch. "I think I'm okay, I don't know Colby. I wish I could pinpoint what's wrong with me." I sighed and leaned against him, as a shiver raced up my spine. "There's nothing wrong with you, you're just going through a lot right now, and that's okay I ju-" he was interrupted by his phone ringing, "hold on, it's Sam." He said and answered the phone, "woah woah...slow down. Yeah she's fine. No. What?? Wait please tell me you're joking. Fuck! Okay, I'll handle it, okay, thanks Sam." I looked up to see his jaw clenched. I leaned up and kissed it gently causing him to loosen up a little, "what happened?" I whispered and he shook his head with a sad expression, "Don't worry about it, baby girl. We can talk about it later." I shot him a confused look, "okay."
He sighed and gave me a sympathetic smile, "I-is it about me?" I mumbled, "don't worry about it." He repeated as my dad came into the room with a grilled cheese sandwich and a bowl of icecream, "dad what are you doing?" I laughed out as he set them in front of me, "this is the ONLY thing your mom could keep down at the beginning of her pregnancy with you, I want to see if it works." I grabbed the plate, as they put on another video. Colby typed on his phone with concentration, not noticing I was staring at him.

I couldn't help but think something was going on that involved me. I could feel my heart rate rising as he finally noticed I was staring at him. His face softened, "please tell me what's going on." I whispered so my dad wouldn't hear, "we can talk about it later, okay? Everything is okay." He said and placed a gentle kiss on the side of my head. I bit my lip and faced the screen again.
Dad was so into the video, causing me to smile, we were watching the first video we ever filmed together at the witches den. It was so crazy to see how far Colby and I have come since then, we have been through so many things and the fact that we were still together blew my mind. He never once ran for the hills or gave up on me, he was always by my side, giving me comfort and hope.
"How's the grilled cheese sitting?" Dad said and pulled me from my thoughts. "No problems yet." I smiled at him, he smiled back then got up. "It's getting late, I have to work in the morning so I'm gonna head to bed." He said as I stood up, "Goodnight dad, I love you." I said and hugged him tightly, "goodnight squirt, I'll see you tomorrow. Colby, it was great to meet you, I'll see you tomorrow." He said and hugged Colby, then left the room.
As soon as he left I turned to Colby, biting my lip. "Let's go to your room." He said quietly and stood up, taking my hand. I followed him, my mind going a million miles a minute. What was going on? Did I need to be worried? Was everyone in LA safe and okay?
"Babe." Colby said and put his hand on my cheek, pulling me back to reality. "I'm okay." I whispered and put my hand on his. "What's going on?" I said and looked into his eyes. "They found your address. It's going around social media..i-I'm trying to stop it..Sam is going to check to make sure your door is locked and nobody has done anything." I nodded slowly, taking in the information he was giving me. My safe space was no longer safe, and I couldn't even wrap my head around it.
"H-how did they find out where I live?" I said as he gently caressed my cheek. His touch was keeping me calm, "I have no idea..they are like FBI agents I swear, we are going to make sure nothing happens to you though. If anything they will just leave hate mail or something though. I'm so sorry this is happening.." he said as I looked at him, his eyes became glassy as I pushed his hair off his forehead. "It's not your fault. I just don't know what I did. I don't even go on social media..how would I be using you for clout if I don't even want use the social media I have? It doesn't make sense." I took a deep breath, keeping my tears at bay, "Colby they are going to KILL me when they find out I'm pregnant. They are going to give you so much hell....I don't know if we can do this." I whispered the last part, hating the way it tasted in my mouth. "W-what?" He said, his voice cracking.
"I don't think we can do this..we can't be together..we can't have this baby..we...we can't do this." I whispered, feeling my heart being ripped out of my chest as he looked at me, tears streaming down his face.
