TEMPTATION | JENLISA G!P (COMPLETE)

CH 30🔞

I wake up the next morning with renewed faith. Last night was indeed the breakthrough i had hoped for. Lisa's late night pledge was exactly what i wanted and now i feel confident that we will pull through and she will finally accept that she will become a mother. Already having slept in longer than i intended to, i hurriedly strip out of my silk nightgown and into the black skinny jeans, thin shirt tank top and adidas shoe i had picked out last night before bed. I gather my long hair up into a messy bun on the top of my head and leave my make up simple with a light coat of YSL Touche Foundation and Concealer, some long lasting Chanel Mascara and some baby pink lipstick. Adding my jacket with the leather sleeves and a Chanel bag which has become my staple fashion accessory, i am out the door and in the car on the way to Lisa's office in record time. Larry hands me a few bottles of water to drink in preparation for the ultrasound.

Despite having one hell of a hangover my little trooper Lisa still managed to haul herself out of bed this morning and into the office. Apparently she has a very important breakfast meeting with some potential business associates which is why we have to stop by and pick her up. My stomach churns as the small seed of doubt begins to worm its way into my thoughts, Did she mean what she said last night? Was it just the ramblings of a drunk man? I don't think my heart could take it if we started ignoring each other again. I shouldn't have worried because as soon as she elegantly climbed in beside me, a kiss was placed on my cheek and a warm smile graced her beautiful face. This is what expectant parents should be like: giddy, excited, happy and in-love.

We are rushed into the doctor straight away and i am grateful. Waiting is not a skill either one of us possess. After the inital introductions by the OB we are shown to an ultrasound room down the hall. The lights are turned off when i am comfortable on the bed and the doctor takes a seat on the stool beside it and lifts up my top to expose my stomach. The scars of the shooting are clearly visable and apart from Lisa, nobody has seen them. I reach for Lisa's hand and grip it tightly. The OB squirts cold gel onto my stomach and then begins to move the hand-held probe over the area. Time stands still as she searches for life. Suddenly she slows and i hear Lisa gasp. There on the tiny monitor is our baby. A speck. A blur. A child.

"Lisa. Jennie. I can confirm that you are indeed pregnant." Doctor smiles.

"I can't believe it.." Lisa whispers and stares at the screen in amazement.

"Lisa.." she looks down and at me and the smile spread across her face triggers my tears. She leans down and kiss them away as well as making sure she kisses every inch of my face. We are so absorbed by our happiness that i don't realise that my OB is still moving the probe around and pressing down even harder.

"Jennie could you just lie still for me a moment". The determination on her face snapping me out of my joy and panic creeps in.

"Is there something wrong?" My voice is timid

"I am sure its nothing." She continues to press into my stomach and tap away on the keyboard with the other hand. After a while she hands me a towel to wipe myself and switches the lights back on.

" Before you go i would like to take some blood and could you provide me with a urine sample?"

"Sure. Is there a reason? "

"Just precautionary at this stage. Don't worry about it. Because of the injuries you sustained from the shooting i have to just make sure everything is in order." Her words soothe me and i ease back into my elated state.
