Summary: Dating your co-star in secret can be difficult especially if your pregnant.

Emily was awoken the next morning by a loud banging on her door. She groaned and got up to answer it.

She checked through the peephole to see who was calling.  It was Zooey, her sister.

What could she possibly want at 7am?

She then opened the door.

“Hey Em!” Zooey barged through and gave Emily a quick hug.

“Hey Zooey. What on earth are you doing here?” Emily asked with a yawn and her voice still sounded sleepy.

“Not much really only that you’re pregnant?!” Zooey said rather sarcastically.

Oh that..

Emily wasn’t sure what to say.

“Are you just going to stand there or are you going to tell me the truth” Zooey continued on slamming her bag down on the dinner table.

“Okay, okay. I’m pregnant!” Emily finally admitted to her sister and took a seat at the table.

“So who knocked you up then?” Zooey asked with a smirk.

Just tell her a little white lie, it won’t hurt anybody.

“Remember that guy with blonde hair I took to that event a couple of months ago. His name is Mark” Emily replied and hoped she’d believe her story.

“Ugh Em not that guy?! Are you serious? You can do so much better than him” Zooey said and rolled her eyes.

“Well that’s how my situation is, whether I like it or not!” Emily snapped back at her.

Zooey’s expression softened.

“Look I’m sorry Em. It’s just a bit of a shock that’s all. I can help make it up to you by giving you a lift to the set” Zooey said apologetically.

“Yeah it was a bit of a shock for me too. Anyway Just give me ten minutes and I’ll meet you in the car.” Emily replied and headed for her bedroom to get ready.

“Sure thing sis” Zooey said left the apartment closing the door behind her.

A half an hour later Emily was on set and tried to act as normally as possible.

She approached the main set area where the cast was rehearsing and looked around.

There was David chatting to Hart and her stomach did a flip.

David waved her over.

Before she could even greet them Hart questioned her.

“So is it true then?” he asked and placed a hand on her shoulder.

David glanced nervously at her but smiled.

She felt like it was the Spanish Inquisition

“Yes” She said quietly.

“Congrats. Who’s the lucky man?” David asked her.

She knew he was only going along with their plan.

“Remember Mark with the blonde hair that I went out with a couple of months ago“ Emily replied trying to sound happy.

“Oh yeah, congrats Em!” David replied feigning his delight and pulled her in for a hug.

“Thanks” Emily replied.

“I don’t like this anymore than you do” David whispered in her ear before he pulled away.

How much longer could they keep this charade up?
