"Fuck." I mumble under my breath as I remember that the guys and I have to pick up our measured suits today. Dee pours the cereal into the bowl, following it with milk, while a soft smile settles on her lips. 

I smirk. "You do know that Landon and the boys still don't know you're pregnant, right?" 

Her smile instantly drops, while the colour from her face drains making her go pale. "Cat got your tongue?" I laugh slightly, bringing the bowl of cereal close to me and take a mouthy bite. 

Realising I didn't receive a reaction, I quickly try to brush it off. "Dee, don't worry. Landon will understand...Hopefully,"

----------------------------------------------------

Dee's P.O.V

Landon doesn't know I'm pregnant.

Landon

Doesn't 

Know

He's going to hate me. 

"Baby?" Kaz waves his hand in front of my face, snapping me out of my horror daydream. "It'll be okay,"

I slam both my hands onto the counter. "It'll be okay!? IT'LL BE OKAY!?" Kaz looked taken back, slowly getting on to his feet. 

My fingers reach my hair as I pull against it, my roots itch with pain. "Hey," Kaz softy approaches me, grabbing my hand and wrapping his arms around me. "You're hardly showing, Dee. You can tell them when it becomes more obvious that you're pregnant,"  

I sigh, resting my head against his chest. "Landon's going to be so disappointed in me, Kaz." 

Kaz's chest vibrates, indicating he was laughing. "Why would he be disappointed? He trusts both you and me, Dee. I really think you're overreacting."

I wiggle myself out of his grip, annoyed that he wouldn't understand me. "I'm not overreacting! I got pregnant before marriage. Do you know how embarrassing that is for me?" I pace out of the kitchen, knowing Kaz was following me. 

It took me seconds, coming to the realisation I was beginning to ramble words I didn't mean. 

Kaz raises his eyebrow at me. "You find carrying my baby embarrassing?" 

"Well,  I can't drink my emotions away, can I now? You're not the one carrying the damn baby!" I said poking his chest as my outburst slowly comes to an end. 

"You need to calm down, Dee," Kaz demands as he grabs my hand and crushes me into his chest again, this time making it impossible to break free from his hold. He rubs my back, calming me down as he brings his lips close to my ears.  "We'll tell Landon after the wedding takes place. If something happens, it'll happen for a reason," His words soothe me down and I start breathing at a normal pace. 

I finally bring my arms around him and hug him back. "I'm just worried. Worried that'll I'll lose Landon again," I look up to Kaz's now soft eyes, as he uses his thumbs to wipe my tears away. 

Cupping my face, he gives me a small smile. "You won't lose him," Kaz kisses my forehead and brings his arms around me once more.

"...So the reception venue has been set in advance. " Layla indicates. "Just in case things went wrong with the set-up, I thought it would be better off if we had time to fix it, but to my luck, nothing went wrong." She smiles as she scrolls through the professional photographers which have been taken for her wedding album. 

"Do you like how it was set out, Layla?" Janyce chuckles nervously. 

The girls and I were in. charge of picking out a theme for the reception and we had all agreed that Layla was definitely one to love an urban environment.
