Bethany's POV

It has now been two months after Cayden woke up and two months since our mother's death. Now Cayden, Ryan and I sit together in the park enjoying the nice autum breeze. Cayden had been confined to a wheelchair for the past two months as he could no longer remember how to walk. He had to learn all over again and was going through physical therapy to help the process along. The doctors aren't sure yet if Cayden will ever be ale to walk on his own again, but only time will tell.

My mother and I had now moved into Cayden's house so that I was able to spend more time with my brother and helping him with some of the things he needed. Ryan was constantly coming by all the time not only to see me, but Cayden as well. Not long after Cayden woke up him and Ryan became friends again. It was a great thing to witness because if it hadn't happened I'd be stuck in the middle of the two not knowing whose side to choose.

"Guys I have something to tell you." I looked at both my brother and the guy that I loved. I didn't intend on telling them the new together, but I could no longer keep it inside. I had to tell them.

"What is it?" They both said in unison as they turned my way. I wasn't sure yet if the news I was about to tell them was a good or bad things. I only found out myself a couple hours ago. I had to give myself some time to process the information.

I took a deep breath, "I'm pregnant." I announced to both of the boys. I could tell my the look on their faces that they were both shocked. I could tell that Ryan was definitely happy, but I wasn't so sure about Cayden.

"That's great news." Ryan said wrapping me in a hug. I could have sworn that I caught a glimpse of sadness in Cayden's face when he thought that I was no longer looking at him. I knew he would come around through, if not today then sometime soon. "I have something to tell you too." Ryan added.

Ryan's POV

With the news of Bethany being pregnant I was so happy, but this couldn't have come at a worse possible time. I was being shipped off to boot camp in a couple days and I would be gone for at least three months if not more.

I had applied for the military before I had even met Bethany, it was too late to back out now. I hadn't told Bethany yet and I didn't plan to. I wasn't about to ruin her happy mood with the possible threat of me being sent away and killed.

"I am going to go stay at my grandparents in Florida for about three months. My grandmas isn't doing so well and there are things there that I have to help with." I hated lying to Bethany, but it had to be done. I didn't want her thinking the worst in me because I wasn't able to tell her the truth. Tears sprung from her eyes and she buried her head on my shoulder. i wish there was something I could do to get out of this especially now that I had a child on the way.

I wasn't sure what we were going to do, but I did know that we were definitely going to make it through this one way or another.

Cayden's POV

Bethany was pregnant and marrying my best friend. Were the only things that have been in my head for the past couple minutes. The news shocked me because I didn't expect to see my sister to be pregnant at such a young age, but I would be here for her no matter what because I loved her with all my heart. I knew she loved me too even if it wasn't the same way for me. But non of that matters. As long as I have my sister my life is complete.

We would all get through this together. I knew that for sure.
