"Does this look like what I think it looks like?" I asked him.
He walked in and his eyes got wide.
"You mean a baby bump?" He asked, a mouthful of chips.
"Uhh huh." I said as I looked at both sides of myself.
"Well, when was your last period?" He asked.
I picked up my phone and pulled up the calendar.
"The week before we got together."
He numbered the weeks.
"You haven't had one since then? Did you sleep with Zak during any of that last week after?" He said.
"Hell no. Homeboy hadn't touched me for a while and we know why." I giggled.
Jay was silent.
"Jay, I think I'm pregnant with YOUR baby!"
"Are you sure?" He asked me.
"99.9% I'm pregnant. 1000% you're the father."
"Well shouldn't we like, buy a test?" He asked.
********************
"Okay, 1...2...3." He counts as we flip the test. In bold block letters the test read: PREGNANT.
My hand goes over my mouth as I gasp and burst to tears. Jay takes me into his arms as I sob.
"Happy tears, right?" He asked.
"Yeah! Oh my god. Yes!" I say crying more. "You're going to be a Dad! Jay, we're having a baby together!"
He hugs me and spins me around.
"I can't believe it. Holy crap. Talk about a totally unexpected surprise!." He says.
"Oh my god. Who are we gonna tell?! I don't think your parents even know we are together.." I say.
"I don't think we should tell anyone. Not even the kids. Not now. Just let this little one be only ours for a while. At least until you're farther along."
I kiss him softly as he puts his hand on my belly.
"I can't believe I'm going to be a father."
