For the next week, I had felt bad off and on and I didn't go to the doctor the next day because I felt fine. But now I'm feeling tired.
I had gone to Rustic Noel to help mom out but left early and Now I'm at the Bar with Casey.
"So explain these symptoms to me Willow," Casey said.
"Cramps at times, I'm tired and sick at the same time," I said.
Casey's eyes get big. "Willow have you had your period?"
"Umm no... Omg Casey!" I throw my hand over my mouth.
"You have baby symptoms, Willow." She said.
"I will have to get a test when I go home. I never even gave that a thought because I thought it was period cramps." I said.
"It's hard to tell sometimes the symptoms can be weird." She said.
Once we finished with lunch she went with me over to the drug store and I bought a couple of tests. I said bye to her and went straight home to take them.
I was a nervous wreck trying to get the packaging open. Pee on the stick or pee in the cup and dip them. Ok, Willow here goes nothing!
I get all of that done and sit on the counter and count down the minutes. When the timer finally beeps I'm scared to look.
I pick the first stick up and it has two lines. I pick up the second stick and it says pregnant. I pick up the third stick and it also has two lines.
Holy shit I'm pregnant! My heart is beating fast and my hands automatically go to my belly. I didn't think I wanted to but now that I'm here I think maybe I do.
I pick up the sticks and hide them in my nightstand. I sit down on the bed and try to catch my breath. I am going to be a mom. Wow, a mom!
God Jace is going to be such a hot dad. I bet I got pregnant on our honeymoon because I all but stood on my head that one night during sex.
I think back to that night and I bite my lip and wipe sweat from my head. Damn Jace isn't even here and he turns me on.
I laugh to myself and go get clothes so I can take a shower. While in the shower I'm trying to think about how I'm going to tell Jace.
I don't want to tell Casey for sure until Jace knows first. He's going to be so shocked and I think happy since he wants kids.
I get out and put on some leggings and a shirt that says, Mrs. Pickford. I love this shirt Jordan had made for me.
When Jace gets home I'm in my office looking over things for my business.
"Hey, babe!" How are you feeling?" He asks.
"Oh, I'm good. Just catching up on some things since I helped mom out today and then had lunch with Casey." I said.
"Oh, that's nice." He smirks... "I love your shirt."
"Leave it to Jordan." I laughed.
"I'm going to go get a quick shower. I'll be back down shortly. What do you want for dinner?" He asked.
"Pizza sounds good to me," I said.
"Alright if you don't mind order it." He said running up the steps.
I place the order on my phone and I can't for the life of me figure out how to tell him.
When he comes back down he walks into my office and sits down and smiles at me.
"Food should be here soon," I said.
"Good I'm starving. We had such a long crazy day. Dad found another buyer and we had to cut over 100 down today not counting all the ones we had to plant." He sighed.
"Jace I." ... Before I could finish the doorbell rings.
"Ohhh pizza is here." He said jumping up.
Well shit, I almost said it out loud. I get up and walk into the kitchen where Jace is placing the pizza. He gets out two beers and sits them on the counter.
"Oh, I'll pass on that tonight," I said picking up the beer and grabbing a pop instead.
We take the food over to the couch and sit down to eat with the tv on. I can't tell him now. What was I thinking?
"Something on your mind babe? You're being quiet." Jace said.
"Yes umm no I'm not sure." I laugh taking a bite of my pizza.
"What's going on Willow?" He said sitting his pizza down.
I giggle... "Nothing I'm just feeling better and I guess I'm happy about it." I lied.
I couldn't tell him over dinner. Maybe when we go up to bed.
We get comfy on the couch and cuddle up and watch a movie but I can't watch the movie for being so nervous. I can't stop thinking about how to tell him.
After the movie is over we head up to bed and I sit on the bottom of the bed when Jace walks in the room.
"Ok, I know something is up now Willow. Please tell me." He begged.
"Jace I think next Christmas we will need a nicer tree," I said.
"What? I own a nursery. We can get any tree we want." He said.
"You are about to own another nursery," I mumble.
"What Willow?" He said looking confused as I walked over to my nightstand. I pull the pregnancy sticks out and walk over to him.
"Jace this is why I'm being so crazy," I said showing him what's in my hands.
"Willow?" His eyes are so big. He jumps up off the bed. "Are you pregnant?"
"I am. I took all of these today. When I had lunch with Casey we went over my symptoms and she said she thought I could be so I bought tests." I said.
He jumps up and spins me around the bedroom. "Wow, I'm going to be a dad!" He laughs.
