Hob paced in the living room waiting for Jack. He heard a car outside and ran to the window to look and see if it was him.

Jack had just pulled into the driveway. Getting out and going up the front steps of the house.

Hob opened the door. "They're still out cold." he said. "I dunno what happened, I just heard screaming and then I came to see what was wrong and Max was in the floor and Cailin was cryin' and I asked her what was wrong and she passed out too..."

Jack went back there and pulled Max up, "Max...Max..." he muttered,then rared back and slapped Max.
"WHAT?!" Max came up,a red handprint on his face, "What's da deal Kelly?!" he said,glaring at Jack.
"Ya passed out cold and scared ya nephew dat's da deal!" Jack said, "What made ya pass out?"
Max remembered and yelled, "CAILIN'S PREGNANT!" he started hyperventilating.
"Max....breath..." Jack said.

Hob's eyes went wide...Any kid fathered by Max was bound to be scary. He glanced at Cailin then went over and started shaking her gently by the shoulders. "Cailin? Wake up."
Cailin's eyes cracked open and she sat up slowly, rubbing the back of her head. Then everything came back to her. She put her head down in her hands and started going into hysterics. "I can't handle a kid! I wasn't planning on this! It's gonna hurt...and...and...OH GOD I'M GONNA GET FAAAAAAT!" She burst into tears again. "This can't be happening!"
Hob sat down beside her and rubbed her back, trying to calm her down. He looked at Jack and Max for help. "It's not as bad as it seems...mom can help you out."

Cailin was sitting on the bathroom counter now, dead silent except for the "fat" she would mutter now and again. She stared at the wall, not really seeing it.
Hob stared at her for a long moment before figuring it would be best to leave her alone for a minute, to think it all over. "I'm, uh...I'm goin' back ta bed. See ya in da mornin'," he patted her shoulder once more and with that, he went back to his bedroom.
Cailin hadn't heard a word he'd said, much less anyone else. She was deep in thought about the future, the baby, Max...he'd seemed pretty upset, almost as much as her. She wondered what he was going to do next. And then there was the matter of her husband...she was still legally married to him because he hadn't been willing to sign the divorce papers. She was going to have to confront him about that, but he couldn't find out that she was pregnant. Who am I kidding? He's not going to sign the papers! He's going to need persuasion. Alot more persuasion than I can dish out... she thought. This was just one big mess... I'll go as soon as I get a chance. Maybe in the morning in a couple of hours. But Max can't know. She shivered at the thought of going all that way alone, but it was just something she was going to have to do. She didn't want to get Max any more involved than he already was in the matter.

Max's eye started twitching
Jack sighed,frowning a bit at Max. "Your pitiful." he said,turned to Cailin, "You okay?"

Jack's voice pulled her out of her thoughts. "Hm? Oh...yeah...I guess. What's done is done."

"Well, it wouldn't have been my choice for things to happen this way, but...I think I can handle it. Hob was right, Blondie can help me out." Cailin said, finally accepting it. "I'm a bit worried about Max though." she stole a quick glance at Max.

"Okay, thanks Jack." Cailin said gratefully. "Alot." She smiled a little at him. "I think I can take it from here." She sat Max down on the bed, sat in front of him, holding both of his hands in hers, and sighed. "Max...we need to talk." she said, her voice low and concerned.

"Shh..." Cailin said putting a finger to his lips. "I'm not mad. Max, I love you so much. We're gonna get through this, okay?"
