Chapter 6: Secrets
Two Weeks Later…
“Are you sure you’re okay to do this drive?” Billy looked at his boyfriend concerned.
Tristan nodded, “I haven’t been as nauseous lately. Plus I’d rather go now that I’m barely showing. After this I can avoid going again for a bit longer. I’m happy you’re coming with me even though you’re going to be stuck at a hotel.” He felt really guilty about that.
“There was no way I was going to let you do this drive by yourself. I’m looking out for the two of you. I’ll get some work done while I’m there. Get ahead in some classes. I can also look up some apartments we can go check out.” Billy didn’t mind that he was going to be practically confined to his room for two days. There was much to be done before the baby arrived.
Tristan smiled brightly, “I love you.” He locked the door to their dorm. Billy had taken their bags to the car already.
“I love you too.” Billy kissed his boyfriend once he was close enough. “Now gimme your keys, I’m driving this beauty.” He grinned.
He chuckled as he tossed the keys, “Yes sir.”
The two teenagers made their way back to Regent. Tristan had decided to surprise his family by not telling them he was coming for a visit. He was happy to be able to go see them, but at the same time he was scared that they were going to know his secret as soon as they set their eyes on him. Billy reassured him multiple times that everything was going to be just fine. He secretly hoped that his boyfriend would finally confess to his parents that he was pregnant and that the other father was the kid who used to bully him when they were little. He sometimes felt like he was Tristan’s dirty little secret. He would never say that out loud of course, especially now. He loved his Juliet and would do anything for him.

Tristan smoothed down his baggy hoodie and took a deep breath, “Here goes nothing.” He unlocked the door and walked inside. “Hello?”
“Peanut is that you?” Dean called from the top of the stairs.
“Hey Papa.” Tristan looked sheepish.
Dean practically ran down the stairs, “You’re here.” He pulled his eldest in for a hug once he had reached him. He wrapped his arms tightly around him. “I missed ya’ kiddo.”
Tristan returned the hug just as enthusiastically, “I missed you too Papa.”
After a few minutes Dean pulled his son away, but still held him at arm’s length, “Why didn’t you tell us you were coming?”
He shrugged, “I wanted to surprise you guys.”
Dean’s smile was blinding, “I love this surprise. Wait till everyone else gets home.”
“I’m gonna be attacked.”
“Well that’s what happens when you don’t come home for almost four months.” He chuckled. “C’mon let’s have some lunch. Onyx will be up from his nap soon. You look like you could use one too.”
He nodded, “I can, maybe after lunch.” He followed his father to the kitchen.
After eating their lunch Tristan spent some time playing with his now awake baby brother before going upstairs to take a nap. He was asleep before his head hit the pillow.
“Peanut you’re home!” Multiple voices chorused.
Tristan groaned and turned on his side as they woke him from his nap. He was scared they would jump on his stomach. His siblings were crowded around him on the bed.
“Hey guys.” He yawned as he sat up. All four of them had their arms around him.
“Papa told us you were here and we saw your car outside.” Adrianna was all smiles.
“Daddy can’t wait to see you. He’s downstairs.”
He smiled, “I can’t wait to see him. I had some free time and decided to surprise you guys.” He was still nervous about his situation. He hoped he could get through the weekend.
“This was a good surprise.” Aiden hugged his brother.
Finally the four of them let their brother go so he could get up. They all went to do their own thing while Tristan went to go see his younger father. He was terrified Sam could see right through him and know. He’d been pregnant four times after all.
“Hey Dad…” Tristan felt awkward standing in front of Sam just as he felt earlier when he had been standing in front of Dean.
Sam pulled him into his arms, “My little Peanut.” He finally felt at ease now that he had his son with him.
Tristan was near tears as he held on tightly to his father, “I missed you Dad.”
“I missed you too Peanut. I’m so happy you’re here.” Sam kissed the top of his head.
“Are you okay?”
Tristan swallowed past the lump in his throat, “Yeah. Just like I told Papa, I wanted to surprise you guys.”
“It definitely was a good surprise.” He gave him one more squeeze before letting go.
Tristan followed Sam to the living room where Dean joined them. The guys had their son update them on everything he’d been doing back at school. Tristan told them everything, but kept his dorm mate and baby omitted from the conversation. He had placed a pillow on his lap to cover himself with. He felt relief that no one had noticed anything.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
“I wish you were here Romeo. It sucks sleeping without you.” Tristan was in the backyard hiding from everyone.
Billy smiled, “It sucks Juliet, but it’s only for two nights. How did it go seeing your family?”
“Everyone was surprised. I almost cried when I saw my dads. These hormones are killin’ me.” Tristan chuckled. “Tomorrow we’re having dinner with everybody. My dads didn’t tell anyone I’m here. They’re all going to be surprised. Even Aunt Ellen is in town so I’ll get to see her too.”
“Be prepared for a lot of hugs. I bet they’ve all missed you.”
Tristan groaned, “I know. I’ll have to wear my hoodie again. I mean no one has noticed anything so far. I did throw up a bit ago, but I hid it well.”
“Just take it easy babe. You should go to bed soon; you both need your rest.”
“We will.” He yawned as he rubbed his stomach. “They must be wondering why I’m taking so long out here.”
“Okay, well then I’ll text ya’ tomorrow. Love you and our little Bug.”
Tristan smiled widely, “Love you too and so does Bug. We have a nickname!”
“I’m glad ya’ liked it. It just came to me.” Billy was happy that the nickname worked.
“G’night Romeo.”
“Good night Juliet.”
Tristan walked back inside only to bump into his sister Adrianna. She had been wondering who he was talking so long to outside.
“Hey Jellybean, I was just heading to bed.” He made to move past her.
“Who were you talking to just now?” She narrowed her eyes at him.
“Just a co-worker. He had some questions.” Tristan lied smoothly.
Adrianna raised a brow, “The library is open at ten o’ clock at night?”
“Jerry has to place some orders in the morning and he’s never done it before so we were going over some things.”
“Suuurrreeee…That’s why you had to go outside? Couldn’t you have done that in here?” Adrianna knew her brother was hiding something and she was going to find out what.
Tristan rolled his eyes, “Jeeze Sis, I just needed some fresh air. I was stuck in a car for four hours. Now I’m going to take a shower and then going to bed.” He stormed off.
Adrianna watched him go. She wanted to believe her big brother, but she knew he wasn’t talking to a co-worker. He had been smiling way too much during his conversation. She had been watching him through the sliding door. Maybe he’d tell her who it really was before he left back to school.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
“Party at the Winchesters!” Ash called out as he walked into the house.
“The party is always here.” Dean deadpanned. “We have the biggest backyard out of all of us.”
Tristan greeted everyone as they walked outside. They were shocked to see their nephew and grandson standing there. Sam and Dean hadn’t told any of them that he had driven down to see them. Bobby squeezed his grandson in an uncharacteristic hug. Tristan was happy to see everyone. He had been feeling a bit homesick, but at the same time he missed his boyfriend. They kept texting each other throughout the whole day. He had felt sick a few times and thrown up twice. No one had noticed, too busy with their conversations.
“Aren’t you feeling a little warm in that thing?” Mike pointed to Tristan’s hoodie.
“It ain’t that chilly yet.”
Tristan shook his head, “No, I’m good. I’m used to wearing it ‘cause it’s cold at school all the time.”
After a while Tristan began to feel tired. Lately he had to take a nap to get through the day. He figured he could sneak away for an hour before they had dinner. They were all busy and wouldn’t miss him. At least inside the house it was quiet.
-SDSDSDSDSDSD-
“Hey Peanut, it’s dinnertime. Wake up sweetheart.” Sam gently shook Tristan awake.
“No…” The teenager groaned. “I don’t wanna.”
Sam chuckled, “You gotta eat son.” He rubbed his back. “There’s pie for dessert, it’s your favorite.”
“Pumpkin?!” Tristan woke right up.
“Of course, now c’mon sleepyhead.”
Tristan slowly got up from his bed and followed Sam back outside. Some of them had jokes about his nap. He thought, ‘if they only knew the reason why’. Adrianna kept a close eye on him. She planned on talking to him later that night when she could get him on his own.
“Bobby and I should open up a babysittin’ service.” Ellen grinned as she ate.
“Why?” Dean looked confused.
“Well tomorrow we’re takin’ care of Ash and Stacey’s kids and then on Tuesday yours are comin’ over after school. We’re pros by now.”
Bobby chuckled, “Try doin’ it all by yourself.”
“Well if ya’ want I can try to get someone else.” Stacey was starting to feel bad. Ash nodded in agreement.
Ellen laughed, “I was just teasin’. I love takin’ care of my grandkids. I only get to see them when I’m in town or you guys go and visit me.”
“Yeah, you guys enjoy your date.” Bobby added.
“You guys scared us.” Ash wrapped an arm around Bobby and Ellen’s shoulders. “Thanks again for watchin’ ‘em.”
“No need to thank us Ash.” Ellen kissed his cheek. She considered him her son. She would do anything for him.

Tristan finally relaxed in his bed. It had taken forever for everyone to go home. He had kept to himself during dinner. Once in a while someone would ask him about school and work. He sounded like a broken record by the end. All he wanted to do was sleep. He groaned when someone knocked on his door.
“Jellybean, I wanna go to bed.” He glared at her when she walked in.
“Tough, we’re going to talk. No more lies.” Adrianna closed the door behind her.
Tristan frowned as he sat up against the headboard, “What?” He placed a pillow on his lap.
She sat down at the foot of the bed, “First with the mysterious phone call and then today you were throwing up.”
He paled, “H-how?”
“I saw ya’ both times, I followed you. Now tell me, what is wrong with you?” She crossed her arms.
Tristan stayed silent. He was torn in between lying or telling the truth. On the one hand she could help him hide his pregnancy from their parents. Or she would snitch on him.
Tristan took a deep breath as he looked at his sister, “If…If I tell you, you have to promise to not tell anybody. Not Papa or Dad or even our siblings.”
Adrianna’s eyes widened. It must be real serious if her brother didn’t want their family to know, “I promise. What’s wrong with you? Are…Are you dying?”
He shook his head, “I’m not dyin’ sis. I-I’m pregnant.” He said it so quiet she almost didn’t hear him. He had moved the pillow out of the way.
Her eyes almost popped out of her head when she realized what he had said, “Y-you’re…Baby?” She looked at his abdomen.
He nodded, “Yes, I’m around ten weeks.” He placed a hand on his stomach. “There’s something else.”
“What else could there be? Are you having multiples?”
He shook his head, “No, there’s just one. Who the other father is might shock you though.”
She narrowed her eyes, “Who’s the other father Peanut?”
“Billy.” He looked away.
“What?!” Adrianna was shocked. “Your childhood bully? What the hell?!”
“Shh.” Tristan placed a hand over his sister’s mouth. “They’ll hear ya’.”
She pushed his hand away, “When did this happen? I thought you guys hated each other. You were always fighting in school.” She was very confused at this revelation.
Tristan told Adrianna everything. Of how they were put together in the dorms and how they fell in love. He even explained to her the situation between Billy and his family. Jellybean was shocked silent. She couldn’t believe what she heard. She knew people changed. She just didn’t think that Billy’s parents were that horrible.
She sighed, “So, he’s really in love with you? He treats you right?”
He smiled as he nodded, “He’s perfect. Billy takes care of me and our Bug. We’re always there for each other. It’s only been a few months, but we love each other.”
“Okay. Well now I get why you haven’t been here. As long as he treats you right, then I’m happy. Though you do know that you’re gonna have to tell Dad and Papa eventually?” She looked at him pointedly.
Tristan sighed, “I know. Billy’s told me that a lot too. I will, I’m just not ready right now.”
“I like him already. Don’t worry; I’ll keep your secret. Thanks for telling me.” She gave her brother a tight hug. She placed a hand on his abdomen. “And you be good for Daddy.”
“Thanks sis, I’m gonna go to bed. Billy and I have to head back early. I gotta pick him up from the hotel first.” He placed a kiss on the top of her head.
Once she was in bed, Adrianna went through the whole conversation in her head. She couldn’t believe that her big brother was going to have a baby and with Billy of all people. She hoped that her brother was right and that Billy didn’t turn out to be like his family. So far he sounded great. She knew her parents were going to have a heart attack at the double news. She was already going to be in the line of fire for knowing before them. She was at least relieved to know that he wasn’t sick.
“Peanut.” She sighed before falling asleep.
