summary: ben stumbles upon something in y/n's room that he wasn't supposed to see
_
ben didn't mean to snoop, he really didn't. but in his defense this particular situation that he had got himself to wasn't entirely his fault.
"y/n! you left your laundry basket downstairs, i brought it up for you!" he knocked on his eldest daughter's bedroom door with the laundry basket in hand.
he waited a few seconds, but didn't get a response. after a few seconds of silence ben decided to peak open her bedroom door, then fully entered when he realized she wasn't home. it didn't bother him too much, he figured that she had just quickly went out and forgot to let him know: no big deal.
the house was completely vacant at the moment: miranda went to go run some errands, tuck went to a friends house to work on a project, and y/n had gone out. ben wasn't gonna lie, he enjoyed the silence and peacefulness of being home alone: just for a little while though.
ben walked into the teenager's room and placed the laundry basket on her bed. he was about to exit before he noticed a picture on y/n's side table. it was a sweet photo the family captured after tuck's 14th birthday. they had all gone to play laser tag that day, and it was bailey and tuck against ben and y/n. he smiled at the innocent picture, before he glanced beside it and noticed something a little less innocent.
"oh my god..." ben couldn't believe his eyes. he picked up the box and carefully read it. even though he knew what it was----he knew exactly what it was. but he couldn't wrap his head around why the hell there was an empty pregnancy test box on his daughter's nightstand.
ben took his cellphone out of his pocket with his right hand, while still holding the box in his left hand. he dialled his wife's number before it rang a few times.
ben was really trying not to freak out, but thoughts kept piling up in his brain. he just couldn't imagine that his 17 year old daughter might be pregnant...and what she had to do to possibly get pregnant----
"oh god no ben don't think about that!": thoughts raced through his mind just before miranda answered the phone.
"hello?" miranda said on the other line, obviously preoccupied with her grocery shopping.
"miranda, how far are you through your shopping?" ben tried not to sound panicked on the phone, however bailey could pick up that something was off.
"wha---? all i got so far is a box of cereal. why?" bailey was now curious.
"i'll tell you when you get here. just come home. now." ben let out a nervous breath.
"not if you don't tell me what's going on first!" bailey argued on the other end. she wasn't one to stop what she was doing right in the middle with no explanation as to why she was doing so.
