This Is My Ghost Adventures

Ch.23

"Oh my God" I said not believing what I saw and put it back on the counter

"What?" Morgan asked and saw what I was seeing, a little pink plus sign

"I told you, you were"

"Morgan, what am I going to do?" I asked turning to look at her

"What do you mean?" she asked and led me to the living room and sat me down on the couch

"I don't think me and Zak are really ready for a baby"

"You and Zak are ready, I can tell...And besides, everyone says that and when the baby comes they change their minds"

"You've been watching to much of the Discovery Health channel" I said chuckling

"Whatever...So when you gonna tell him?"

I really don't want to tell him until I'm sure I thought

"Hello?" Morgan said waving a hand infront of my face

"Uh...when he gets back?" I stated even though it sounded like a question

"Pinky promise?"

"What are we 4?"

"Candice" she said warningly

"Fine" I then grabbed her pinky with my pinky "I promise"

"Good, well I need to get going"

"Alright, love you"

"Love you too"

She then left and as soon as she pulled out of the driveway I ploppled down on the couch while letting out a loud frustrated sigh

How am I going to tell him? I thought

/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/

A couple of more days passed, and they were long. The guys finally came back but something was different with Zak, he seemed distant. I just marked it off as it was a long investigation and due to jet lag, so I left him alone for a few days. He hasn't really called me or came over to my house, so today I'm going to go to his house because it's starting to worry me alittle bit. When I arrived at his house I let myself in with the key that he'd given me and Gracie greeted me at the door

"Hey Gracie" I said and patted her head

I walked into the house further and I saw Zak laying on the couch with his left arm over his eyes. I sat on the coffee table

"Zak, are you ok?" I asked gently

"Yeah" He sighed

Liar I thought

"What's up?"

he sat up and looked at me and I could tell he hadn't slept for a few days

"I just have a lot of things on my mind right now"

"Oh"

"So what brings you here?"

"Well, I haven't seen you for a few days and it started to wory me...And besides do I need a reason to see my future husband?" I asked trying to lighten the mood

"I guess not"

Now I was getting slightly aggitated at his mood that he was in

"Was the investigation that bad?" I asked with a hint of annoyance

"No-"

"Alright then, why are you being so distant?"

"Because I'm trying to detox from the investigation"

"There, that's all you had to say"

"Candy, I think you should stay out of my house for a few days"

"Why?"

"Because I think something followed me home again"

"Things always follow you home"

"I know, but this is diff-"

then we heard Gracie growling. We looked over at her, her ears were all the way back, her hair where her spine is was sticking up, she was showing her teeth, and she was in an attack position while making her way slowly to the hallway

"Zak what's going on?"

"Like I said something followed me home and you being here could put you in danger"

"Why don't you come stay at my house for alittle bit and get some rest"

"It might follow me to your house...Candy please go" he begged

I sighed and got up

"Will I at least see you at the office tomorrow?"

"Yeah, I'll be there"

I leaned foward and kissed his forehead and then left. After I got back home I just started crying

Why do I feel like my heart just got ripped out? I know he's trying to protect me, but that doesn't mean to be so distant I thought

I soon cried myself to sleep on the couch.

/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/

I was at the office with Aaron and Nick spinning in one of the chairs waiting for Zak

"You ok Candy?" Aaron asked

"Yeah why?"

"Because you only spin in the chair when you have something on your mind"

I sighed "I'm fine Nick"

Just then Zak came through the door

"Hey sweetie" he said coming over to me and kissed my cheek

He seems like he's back to normal I thought

"Alright..." he said rubbing his hands together "Let's get started"

"Zak?"

"Hmm?"

"I've got something I have to tell you"

"What is it?"

Just say it I thought

then Billy came in

"Well, we're having a baby" then the guys had alittle concern on their faces

"You and Billy? Candy I thought you loved Zak" Aaron said shocked

"What?" I asked squinting and shaking my head as if he'd just spoken a foriegn language

"I'm not having a baby with her, no offense Candy, I'm married and I'm happy with my marriage"

"None taken" I said smiling at him and he had slight concern written on his face too, and then I looked back at Aaron "Let me try this again..Zak, we're having a baby"

"You sure?" Zak asked

"Yeah, I took a test about a week ago, I've been wanting to tell you but you've been distant"

"Congradulations" Billy, Aaron, and Nick said

"Are you mad or happy?" I asked looking at Zak

I knew this wasn't a good idea I thought

he then came to me and hugged me tightly

"I'm happy" he said and kissed the top of my head, but I could sense some sadness in his voice

"So about that evidence?" Aaron said

we all chuckled and started going through the evidence. About 2 hours into going through the evidence I saw out of the corner of my eye whisper something to Billy and handed him the EVP recorder and Billy let out a quiet sigh and put it in a drawer

What's on that? I thought

"What ya got there Billy?" I asked getting up and going to him

"I've got a couple of orbs showing up on the screen"

"I don't mean video, I mean with that recorder that you just put in the drawer...What are you guys trying to hide?"

"I told you she'd see" Billy mumbled to Zak

"Candy, it's nothing" Zak said

"Then let me hear it"

"Candy" Zak said warningly

"Zak, what's on that recorder that you're trying to hide" I said with the same amount of warning

"Pul it back out" Zak said sighing in defeat

"You sure?"

"She's not going to let it go until she hears it"

Billy got it back out and handed it to Zak. Zak plugged it into the laptop

"Now Candy don't get alarmed when you hear this, we have to do some more analyzing with this one...ok?"

"Alright"

he then played it and the guys watched my reaction. I heard it and my eyes grew big and I could barely breath

"Cou-Could you play that again?" I stammered but I wanted to make sure I heard it right

he played it again and I heard 'Baby's gonna die' in a low demonic growly voice

Is that why he doesn't want me at his house I thought

"Now like I said, we still need to do some more analysis with that...it might not even mean our baby"

I sat down on one of the leather couches and Zak came to me

"Is that the reason why you wanted me to stay out of this investigation and to leave your house that day?" I asked looking up at him

"Yeah, I'm only trying to protect you" he said taking my shaky hands, which I didn't realize they were shaking until now

"Everything's going to be fine Candy" Nick said with a reassuring smile

"I think I need to go home" I said getting up

"Be careful and I'll see you in a few hours" Zak said standing up and kissing me

I left the office still in a daze. How I made it home, I have no idea. When I walked in I collapsed on the couch.

I felt a hand on my shoulder, so I opened my eyes and saw Zak infront of me

I must have fallen asleep I thought

"I brought some Chinese food if you're hungry"

"Thanks"

"You ok?" he asked handing me a beef and brocolli with rice

"Yeah, I'll be fine...It's been a long day" I said taking a bite

when we finished I went upstairs and brushed my teeth and Zak went into my room and layed on my bed. When I got done I crawled into bed with him and got as close to him as possible. He wrapped his right arm around me protectively and we fell asleep.
