The Guy Next Door

It's Not What It Seems Like

Amber's POV

I took nap after throwing up for about an hour, I didn't even eat that much food so I don't understand  why there was so much throw up. My mom finally left though because as I go downstairs all the lights are off and her car isn't in the driveway. Thank god. I turn on the kitchen light and if I wasn't facing the kitchen island I wouldn't have even noticed the small pregnancy test box on it. She really got me a pregnancy test. I chuckle. I'm not pregnant. She's overreacting. I take the test and go upstairs into the bathroom. As I'm sitting down peeing on the stick I can't help but think what if I am pregnant. Jason would be a great dad and mom would be a great grandmother. I smile at the thought of us all together with mine and Jason's child on Christmas. All of us  laughing while unwrapping presents. However my thought is disturbed when my alarm of 3 minutes goes off. God I'm so nervous. I turn off the alarm on my phone and gently pick up the test as if shaking it might change the results. 1...2...3, two lines. Wait two lines! I'M PREGNANT! OH MY GOD! I can't help but cry. Hot tears start to roll down my face. I can't tell if they're happy tears or sad or nervous ones because I'm feeling all of those. I need to tell Jason though. Tomorrow at work I will tell him.

All the tears from last night had me so tired that I almost woke up late for work. I had to put on black leather skirt with a lavender blouse. I barely had time to do my hair so I curled it quickly then put some mascara and a bit of eyeliner. I think I look decent enough to tell Jason the news. As I step into the firm there's people on the phone and talking to their clients everywhere. The place is packed so I have to take the stairs instead of the elevator. There was literally no space to even breathe in there. As I walk up the stairs I can't help but start to feel nervous. Maybe Jason isn't ready to be a dad. I mean he's 23 he's still young but I mean so am I. I really hope this goes well. When I finally get to the 4th floor I am out of breath. I've never been out of breath while going up the stairs, I guess this comes with the pregnancy. As I try to catch my breath I take out a water bottle I have in my purse. However I'm in front of Jason's office and the door is slightly open so I decide that I'll drink after. When I push Jason's door gently to open, I see His intern on his lap with her arms around his neck. I can feel my blood pressure going up. "What the actual fuck Jason," I say trying to stay calm. He jumps and pushes his intern off his lap. "Amber I swear it's not what it seems. Just let me explain". I don't know if I'm just extremely disgusted by him or if it's this whole pregnancy thing but I feel the urge to puke. I run out of his office and go to the nearest bathroom.
