Our Little Girl ~H.S.

We walked into the convenience store and I took a deep breath then lead the way to the isle we needed..

I seen them, but they were on the top shelf. I sighed and turned to Harry.. 

He'd already noticed the problem and he had a huge grin on his face.

All I did was point to it and he nodded and grabbed two.

"It's cute that you're short." He said as he handed me the two pregnancy tests.

I roll my eyes and give him a playful glare. He giggles and we walk around, finding snacks, until we finally make our way to the counter..

We buy everything, and thankfully the cashier doesn't recognize Harry.. 

Back in the car, I hold both little boxes in my hands and read one of the backs, slowly.. I feel Harry's hand on my thigh and I smile a little and look up at him. He's focused on the road but he's got this little, content, almost excited smile.

"So.. if I am.. what do you want it to be? A boy or girl?" I asked with a smile

"I hope that if you are, we have a girl" He says honestly.. then he says "but as long as it's healthy and happy, then I couldn't care less."

I smiled and said "I definitely want to have a healthy baby too.. but a girl would be nice."

We both grin and he stops the car in the house. We get out, him carrying the two bags of snacks, and me just carrying the pregnancy tests.. We get inside and he puts the bags on the counter then gently picks me up and starts carrying me up to the bathroom.

We reach the bathroom and he sets me on my feet. He takes a box and stats to open it while I open the other..

"So.. these are fancy.. so it will either say 'pregnant' or 'not pregnant'. Easy and pretty fast.. There's, like, a 3 minute wait." I inform him

He nods and hands me both tests. He stands back and watches me.

I frown and say "This is weird, Harry.. I'm gonna pee. Turn around!" 

He laughs and turns and I pull my pants down and sit on the toilet.. I carefully, if that makes sense, pee on both tests then put the little caps on and set them on the counter. Harry turns back around as I'm buttoning my jeans and flushing the toilet.

"Wanna sit?" He asks as he gently places his hands on my hips. I nodded then we sat on the floor. I leaned into his side and he kissed my head..

"If we're not.. do you think.. maybe.. I don't know.. we could try?" He asked, stuttering and hesitating a lot.

I smiled a little and said "yeah.. I wanna try.. I want a baby with you. And I think we're ready"

"Me too.. We're ready." he nods and agrees

After 5 minutes, I feel like I'm actually ready to see the results..

"Harry.. I'm gonna look" I tell him

"Yeah.. let's look" He agrees and we both get up.

We stare anxiously at the two tests and we both slowly approach them.. We lean over and look down at then..

and..

"Holy shit.." I whisper and bring one hand to my mouth.

"We're pregnant" Harry gasps

Immediately, he takes me off the ground, off my feet, and he spins with me and crashes his lips into mine.

"I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU!" He shouts as he pulls his lips off of mine and sits me down.

Happy tears flood my eyes and I cry out "You're gonna be a daddy.. and I'm gonna be a momma!!"
