| They got back to Kong Studios for their break. Jade had taken Noodle with her to get the pictures from the tour. She had also bought a pregnancy test. She wasn�t felling well and was later than ever. They got back and the two of them looked at the pictures in the Winnebago, after she had taken the test. Everyone else was inside. �Look at this one!� She was flying through the pictures like nothing. She showed Jade the one she was looking at. It was Noodle and she. Big sister and little sister. She realized Jade was doing something on the side as well. �Jade, what are you doing?� �Well, Noodle, can you keep a secret?� �Oh, secrets! Tell me!� �Promise me you wont say anything.� �I promise.� �I think I�m pregnant.� �Really?! I�m going to be an aunty! Does Murdoc know?� �Not yet. He has no idea I got a pregnancy test. Noodle, it�s very important that you don�t say anything.� �I promise I wont say anything.� She looked at the time and realized she had to check for the results. Jade took a deep breath and walked into the bathroom. She checked the results and was shocked. She walked out with an expression on her face that showed it. Noodle looked at her. �Jade, is everything alright? Are you going to have a baby?� �Let�s go talk to the others first.� They walked into the rec. room, and to her surprise they had company. She knew her father was here, but so was Draco. She over heard something and snuck off to the side, pulling Noodle with her. She motioned for her to be quite. �So what kind of wedding are we going for?� �Satanic ritual. Of course� �Exactly what kind? There are so many it�s insane.� �The one that�s kind of like a Christian wedding. I don�t want anything too weird.� Just then Jade walked in with Noodle, and they all looked up at her in surprise. She wasn�t supposed to be there. Russel got up and tried to escort her out of the room. �Who�s wedding?� �A friend of Murdoc�s wants these guys there for the ritual.� �Ok.� Jade looked at Murdoc and he had a bit of worried in his expression. �I have something I need to tell you.� She looked about the room. She had no idea how Murdoc would take it, let alone the others. �Is everything ok love?� Jade looked to the guys on my left, then the right, and back at Murdoc. �I�m pregnant.� They all looked at her in shock until Murdoc broke the silence. �Cute joke.� �I�m not joking. I�m serious.� She showed him the pregnancy test, which was positive. �Aw, fuck me!� He threw it to the ground and stormed off. Jade was hurt and broke down crying. �I didn�t mean for any of this to happen.� �Calm down, Jade. We don�t want anything to happen to that baby.� �What if Murdoc doesn�t want it?� Russel looked up towards the stairs where Murdoc had gone and back to her. �I don�t know�� Del had left after Murdoc. Eventually the two came back down. �If you don�t want�� He cut her off by putting a finger to her lips. �I wasn�t expecting this, but I�m happy.� He hugged her in joy. She could feel the excitement in his touches. He let her go and looked at her in the eyes, putting one hand on her shoulder and the other on the side of her face. �There�s something I need to tell you. More like ask you.� I looked at him confused. �Love, I have loved you since the day I first saw you. Now I want to prove myself to you.� He got down on one knee and pulled out a box and opened it. �Jade, will you marry me?� Jade looked at him, speechless. She nodded her head yes. He put the ring on her finger and kissed her passionately. It was a white gold ring with a sapphire stone with a few small jade emeralds. �So that WAS our wedding you guys were planning!� They all looked at each other and at the ground. Eventually they caved in and told her it was. Draco and Satan were there to help us with the preparations, and Draco was doing the ritual. Jade had designed her own gown. It was to be black, the top half like a corset. Smooth and silky, with a jade sequenced pattern. The dress part was to be black as well, only a different fabric and slightly lighter, with jade glitter lightly placed on it. It was beautiful. She wasn�t going to show Murdoc or anyone else. She only showed Noodle, who was going to be the flower girl, and Sheika, who she picked to be her maid of honor. �That�s pretty.� �Thanks.� 2-D was to be the best man. This surprised them when he asked 2-D. �Why do you want 2-D to be the best man?� �Bloody hell! Why can�t I be nice for a change?� �Chill out. We were just wondering.� ~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~�~ Nine months had come and gone like nothing. The pregnancy affected a lot of things. Jade couldn�t practice with Noodle any more, and morning sickness always got in the way with singing. Finally the day had come. She woke up in the middle of the night to some pain, and realized something. �Murdoc?� She nudged him, trying to wake him. �Murdoc.� �What?� He mumbled sleepily. He was only half up. �Murdoc, my water broke.� �That�s nice love. Wait. What?� He got up we hurried to the Geep. They got to the hospital and she was just about to give birth. They were escorted to a room and shortly her doctor came in. After two hours of labor, which actually seemed like forever, it was all over. They had a baby girl. She was born on December 6, 2003 at 3:04 in the morning. Jade�s doctor handed her to Murdoc, and then to her. She was holding her smiling, but exhausted. �What shall we name her?� �How about Amber?� �Amber Niccals. I like that.� �Who said she was getting your last name?� She was playing with him. They had been together long enough that he could tell when she was playing or not. �I said so.� He kissed he on the cheek and they handed Amber back to the doctor. |
