Hey guys! So its been forever and I'm so sorry that I haven't updated. There has been a lot of things going on and I haven't been able to find the inspiration to continue. I had written the first bit of this chapter a few months back, but I couldn't get into it. So I know it's been months and I don't know if anyone is even going to read this anymore, but if you do, know that I'm sorry.

Anyways, I wasn't planning on doing many more chapters, so please don't be expecting more than four at the most. However, thank you to everyone who has been continuously reviewing and messaging me lately. I know I'm a hypocrite. I hate when it takes forever for an update, but I promise I'm not giving up on this story when it's so close to being finished. It's not my best work, but I hope you guys still enjoy.


Chapter Twelve

"Maya Matlin?" Called a girl in pink scrubs. "Dr. Rockwell will see you now."

I glanced over at Campbell who was sitting next to me. He squeezed my hand gently and smiled encouragingly. He kissed my forehead and I got to my feet, following the nurse. She led me down a small hallway and into a small cube room.

"She'll be with you in just a moment." The nurse smiled, closing the door as she walked back into the hallway.

I sighed and sat up on the bed. Campbell and I had to get checked up before we were allowed to see family just in case we caught some type of disease on the island. I wasn't sure where we were. After the helicopter had picked us up we were taken to the mainland. We were going to be staying in a hotel for the night and catch a plane first thing tomorrow to fly home to Toronto.

The police were going to call our parents and let them know that we were alive and coming home. I could already imagine my mom's expression. She'd drop the phone and start crying, making my dad answer to the caller and then he too would sob with my mother.

The door to the room opened slowly as a tall dark women walked inside. She stood in front of me and smiled.

"I first should say that I'm astonished the two of you were able to make it that long on your own. Your mother and Campbell's father were here for a week after you had first gone missing. They had gone everywhere hanging posters and talking to all the fishermen. They didn't think for a second you two were dead." She spoke softly.

"I knew my mom wouldn't give up." I smiled. Dr. Rockwell nodded and smiled. She began the usual procedure for patients and took a blood sample.

"I'm just going to bring this to the lab and I'll be back shortly." She left the room as I leaned against the wall. I felt like I was ready to pass out.

"So, your blood results came back and thankfully there is nothing bad in your system." Dr. Rockwell said, standing in front of me. "However, Ms. Matlin, there was something else rather shocking you should know about."

"What is it?" I asked, raising my eyebrow. Dr. Rockwell put her clipboard to her side and stared into my eyes.

"Your blood results came back and..." She hesitated. "It seems to be that you're pregnant."

In that moment everything stopped. The ticking of the clock. The air streaming through the vents. My breath. My heart.

"Maya... Maya are you even listening to me?"

"What?" I asked, staring blankly at Campbell.

He chuckled under his breath and pointed out the car window. "I was saying how different the sunset looks from here."

I turned to look out his window. The sun did look different. It looked smaller and less bright. I nodded to Campbell and looked back out my window.

"Hey, you okay?" Campbell asked, grabbing my hand. I nodded slowly and I could feel a tear threatening to fall from the corner of my eye. "Maya?"

I turned to look at Cam. He looked into my eyes and moved his thumb to remove the water pushing its way down my cheek. I knew Campbell and I had been through so much and to stop trusting him now just seemed silly. I looked down at our twined hands and tried to find my voice.

"I- I'm... pregnant." I whispered. I carefully looked up at Campbell through my wet eyelashes. He was staring blankly at me. He was frozen not any sign of emotion crossing his face.

"How do you know?" He asked. I shook my head and looked away from him.

"Dr. Rockwell did a blood test." I sobbed. "She said that I'm almost four weeks."

I couldn't look at Campbell. I didn't want to know what he was thinking. He would probably never want to even see me again. Why would he? He had just spent two months with me and now to find out he has to put his life aside again to raise a baby? We didn't even know we were going to make it off the island let alone still be able to go to school and become successful and eventually start our own families.

We pulled into the hotel's parking lot. We walked into the lobby, the distance between us was noticable. We had been stuck to each other since we had been off the island. Not having my hand brushing his made me feel bare.

The police officer escorting us handed us each a room key and walked us to elevator.

"If you guys need anything," the officer began, "Just call the lobby."

He pressed our room floor and left us alone in the elevator. I stared down at my feet and tried to control my breathing. I could hear my heart beating through my chest and my palms getting sweaty.

When the elevator doors opened I looked to Campbell. He was staring ahead and made no sign of moving. I slowly touched his hand. He jerked it away and looked down at me.

"This is us." I whispered. Campbell nodded and motioned for me to go first. I stepped out and looked down the long hallway. I was in room 312. I slowly walked down, checking the door numbers. I heard the clicking of a door and turned to see Campbell walking into his room.

I felt a hole burning in my throat and threw myself into my room. I walked to the single double bed and lay face down into a pillow. My sobs were loud and rocked my entire body, but I couldn't stop. Campbell hated me and would probably never talk to me again all because we were so stupid and acting like teenagers on a deserted island. What was I supposed to do? I couldn't go back in time and change everything. I couldn't make the baby disappear. Abortion wasn't an option. What a cliché story. Girl and boy stranded on an island, boy likes girl, girl likes boy, get rescued and have a baby.

What were my parents going to say? Katie would probably tell me how boys were no good. My friends? They wouldn't even understand. From what I remember they wouldn't have even given Campbell a double take. I wouldn't have given him a double take. I never even knew him, yet I was so quick to judge him.

Campbell was so different than anyone I had known. He was kind and gentle, but we were still able to be silly and, even in the circumstances, have a good time.

I rolled over in the bed and stared at the ceiling in the dark. Sometime between seeing different images in the ceiling and crying some more, I fell asleep.

"Maya?"

"Please open the door."

I slowly rolled onto my back. It took a moment to realize where I was.

"Maya?" I heard someone say followed by three soft knocks.

I untangled myself from the comforter and ran to the door. Campbell stood in front of my door with his arms on either side of the door frame. His eyes were puffy and circled by large black bags.

"Can I come in?" He asked quietly. I opened the door and stepped aside. He walked inside and looked around the hotel room.

"Have... you slept yet?" I questioned. Campbell turned to me and shook his head slowly. "You know, they said we could order room service if we-"

"I'm sorry." He choked, his eyes slowly watering. I took a step towards him. He turned his head slightly and closed his eyes, fighting back his tears. I waited patiently and held my breath.

"I love you." Campbell whispered. He lifted his head and took a step towards me. He cautiously stared at my stomach and slowly moved his hands to rest on it. "I love you and I promise, I'm going to love this baby more than anything in the world."

I couldn't find the words to speak when I caught my breath again.

"I shouldn't have acted that way, it just... caught me off guard. I should've known better but I honestly didn't think we would ever be here in a hotel room going home in the morning. Maya, I've never felt this way about anyone and when you told me, I was scared. I know nothing about being a father and I know this is going to change everything about your plans for the future, but I want to be here for you." Cam looked to his hands still on my stomach. "For both of you."

Tears began rolling off my cheeks and landing on the floor. I shook my head to Campbell and felt my feet giving under my weight. Campbell supported me and walked us to the bed. I sat down and clutched my stomach.

"I can't do this." I whispered. "I can't have a baby. I'm still in high school, I still have a future ahead of me."

Campbell nodded then placed his hands on either side of my face. He rested his forehead against my and smiled softly.

"Maya, we survived on an island together. We can survive having a baby. We're strong enough to face the world as long as we're together. No matter what, I'll be by your side the entire way. You'll still be able to go to college and have the successful life you deserve and when that happens I'm going to be there, by your side with our beautiful baby."

I opened my eyes and looked into Campbell's. He wiped away a falling tear and kissed my nose.

"I love you." I whispered. Campbell smiled and brushed his lips against mine.

"I love you too."

I woke the next morning to a soft feeling on my cheek. I rolled over and saw Campbell smiling at me. His arm wrapped around my waist as he had me pulled into his chest.

"Sorry I woke you up." He whispered, kissing my shoulder.

Just as I was about to respond there was a small tapping at the door. Campbell and I got up from the bed and I went to answer it. The same officer from the night before was standing at the door and was holding a small duffel bag.

"I'm assuming Mr. Saunders is here?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. I could feel my cheeks blushing. "There is a change of clothes and some toiletries for the two of you in here. When your ready, come down to the lobby and we'll drive you out to the airport."

"Thank you." I said, taking the duffel bag from him. I slowly closed the door and turned to Campbell who was holding in a laugh. I rolled my eyes and tossed the duffel bag on the bed. Campbell grabbed my waist and pulled me between his legs.

"Ready to go home?" He asked. I bit my lip and nodded.

"I'm kind of nervous actually." I laughed shakily. Campbell nodded and grabbed one of the tooth brushes sitting on top of the duffel bag. He walked into the bathroom as I went to change into the sweatpants and sweater that were left for me.

I could feel the butterflies in my stomach. I lightly rubbed over it.

"We'll be home soon." I whispered.
