Disclaimer: I own nothing. This is fiction
News Revealed
Blake was still in shock. It had been two weeks since Adam told him he was pregnant. The younger man had left and told Blake that he would let Blake take as much time as he wanted to absorb the news. Blake needed more time. And it was starting to effect his marriage. Miranda was getting annoyed. Blake was distracted and wasn't spending any time with her. He knew he needed to talk to her and let her know what was going on But where to begin? He loved Miranda, but he wanted to be a father for his child. Miranda never really talked about children. Blake didn't think she wanted any. Would he really give up this chance of fatherhood? And what about Adam? Okay, he had his friends and family, but raising a child wasn't easy. And Adam would be doing it alone. Would he want Blake's help? God, what was he meant to do?!
"Blake? Are you alright? Please, talk to me, I'm worried about you."
Miranda. She was concerned about him Of course she was. Blake had shut her out. How could he tell his wife that he slept with his male friend just before their wedding? She'd be heartbroken. And Blake loved Miranda. He just loved Adam that much more.

"No word yet?"
Ryan frowned as Adam shook his head. The vocalist was still waiting to hear from Blake. Three weeks and not one word.
"Look, you have to relax. Stress is not good for the baby."
"I know. But, what if he decides he doesn't want the child?"
"Come on Adam. I've seen how he looks at you. He loves you."
"I sense a but coming."
"But he's married Adam. He has a wife. You have to understand that he may not want to damage that."
"I know. I'm pathetic, aren't I?"
"No, you're in love. Come on,let's go get your mind off it."
"How?"
"Movie and a dinner?"
"Sure, sounds good."
Ryan settled into the couch as Adam went to get ready. He'd had feelings for Adam for a while now and it had hurt, seeing the younger man so caught up in Shelton. He didn't want Adam hurt, but he wanted Adam. And he was going to take his chance. With Blake out of the picture, Ryan could step up and show Adam that he was more suitable.
"Ryan, you ready?"
Ryan looked Adam up and down. God this man was beautiful. Ryan would do everything he could to win Adam's heart.
"Yeah, more than ready."
