The news that Jessie was pregnant hit Peter like a bolt from the blue. He barely stopped to think before heading straight to the Goff house that same night.
By the time he arrived, Otto was already asleep. Kennedy stood at the door, eyebrows drawn together. “It’s pretty late, Peter. What brings you here?”
Peter didn’t waste time. “Jessie’s pregnant.”
Kennedy’s eyes went wide. “She’s what?”
“She just sent me a picture of the test.”
Peter headed for Jessie’s room and pushed open the door. Jessie was sitting on the floor, looking small and lost. The second she saw him, she rushed into his arms.
“Peter, you’re here. I thought… I thought maybe you wouldn’t want me anymore.”
He held her tight, his heart suddenly lighter. Becoming a dad again was the best news he could imagine. “Don’t be silly. You’re my wife. I’m never leaving you.”
He looked her over, a gentle scold in his voice. “You know you’re pregnant now, right? You can’t just sit around on the cold floor.”
Jessie’s eyes shimmered with unshed tears. “I just… needed a minute to calm down. The floor helped.”
Peter stroked her back and held her closer. “I’m sorry, honey. You don’t have to calm down alone. Let’s just go home, okay? If you want to yell at me or even hit me, I deserve it. I was an idiot before.”
Jessie’s lips curved in a secretive smile. Being pregnant definitely had its perks. “No yelling. Let’s just go home, okay?”
Peter managed to cheer her up in no time. He ended up staying the night at her family’s place.
The next morning, Otto looked surprised to see Peter at the breakfast table. Once everyone in the house knew Jessie was pregnant, the mood shifted. Happiness spread like sunshine.
