"Yeah." She turned around to snuggle into his chest, breathing in his scent. "I love you." She whispered, curling up into a ball, snuggling his chest

Elijah smiles, pulling the covers over them. "And I love you. I always will" he says placing a kiss on her head as he curled up behind her, spooning her.

Dakota quickly falls asleep after worrying a bit more. She woke up the next morning in the same position. She didn't want to open her eyes and wake up, so she just spun around and kissed Elijah's neck.

Elijah smiles, leaning down to kiss her back. "You ready to find out?" he asks, holding her close

"No." She said, opening her eyes and getting up. She stretches and takes his hand. "I'll run to the store real quick, love." She said sleepily. She let go of his hand and grabbed the truck keys along with her hpone. "Love you." She said, walking out of the dorm.

Dakota arrived back at the dorm 10 minutes later, test in hand. "I'll be right back." She said, going into the bathroom. She waited a suspensful 3 minutes before looking, terrified. Positive. She collapsed on the floor, her back to the wall and started crying. She was happy, yet terrified. She slowly got up and opened the door, running into Elijah's arms. "You're going to be a dad." She said, crying

Elijah paced as he waited for Dakota as she was in the bathroom, taking the pregnancy test. He stopped to pet Kingston's head before continuing to pace. He was spooked slightly when she unlocked the door and came out ubruptly. He caught her in her arms as she ran to him. "Shh, it's okay baby" he says stroking her hair as she cried. "Are you happy?" he asks, tentitively gaging her reaction. Did she want a child? Or did she not? Elijah would support her in whatever decision she made, he just needed to know how she felt.

"Of course. And scared too." She said, kissing him. "Don't.....don't you?" She asked, now worried he might be upset.

Elijah smiles, "Of cours I'm happy. We get to grow our family" he says kissing her back. "I'll apply to switch online for classes so I can care for you" he says pulling out his phone. "And done. Now I wait to see if my switch will be approved"

She smiled at him. "Thank you." She said once he applied. She kissed him again, then laid her head on his chest. "I'm so glad you're happy." She added.

Elijah smiles, "does that mean we should start shopping and preparing?" he asks. "We have the money from the lottery, we could move out and start preparing now if you wish"
