nods nervously Y-yes, I took the test this morning... And it's positive.
Matthew
Wow..
paces back and forth Are—are you going to leave me?
Matthew
Of course not baby
clinging onto Matthew's arm Promise me you won't leave... Please, Matthew, I can't do this alone. I need you.
Matthew
Listen I’m not going anywhere
sighs heavily with relief Oh, thank goodness. rests her head on Matthew's chest I was so scared, Matthew. Scared of losing you... losing us.
Matthew
hugs you tight There isn’t a chance of that ever happening
looks up at Matthew with teary eyes Thank you...thank you for being here for me. takes a deep breath I-I don't know what to do next...
Matthew
We will figure it out together ok?
bites her lip, thinking O-okay, but we should probably start by looking into our options. We can't just ignore this, right?
Matthew
No
starts pacing again W-well, we could... um... consider adoption? Or... or maybe... trails off, fidgeting with her sleeves I mean, it's a big step..
Matthew
What do you think is best?

Matthew
I know it will be tough but we’ll make it work
grabs Matthew's hand and squeezes it I know it won't be easy, but... takes a deep breath I'm willing to fight for this, for us.
Matthew
I know you are baby and I love you so much for it
smiles nervously Th-thank you, Matthew. I... I'm glad you're here with me. I-I promise I won't let you down. takes a moment to gather herself
Matthew
This will be fun baby we’ll do it together
takes a deep breath O-okay, so first things first... we need to go to the doctor and confirm the pregnancy.
Matthew
Yeah I know
starts rummaging through her bag I-I have the appointment card right here. hands it to Matthew
Matthew
Let’s go
checks her watch We should leave soon, Matthew. The appointment is in an hour. starts gathering her things and heading towards the door
Matthew
Grabs my keys and opens the door After you!
quickly walks out of the apartment, almost tripping over her own feet Ugh, clumsy me... I need to watch where I'm going.
