"I'm pregnant." I told Kristrin feeling very anxious as the father of my child stared at me without any emotion.

It felt like forever as I stood feeling even more anxious as he stared at me without saying anything.

"I know." He responded a few seconds later as his face lit up with joy and excitement.

Immediately I was then lifted in the air and swung around before Kristrin once again smashed his lips onto mine.

Our kiss was brief before I pulled away in a confused state.

"Wait...you knew? So being pregnant wasn't actually a coincidence? You had planned it all along? And when did you figure out that I was pregnant?"

"Your pregnancy wasn't planned Bella. I found out through a check up with your Mother actually." Kristrin confessed.

"What?! How's that even possible? And your saying my parents knows that I'm pregnant?"

Oh boy.

"What became an pre-interview turned out into a check up disclosing that I had Couvade syndrome and that's how I came to found it that you were pregnant." Kristrin openly admitted slowly placing me down on the ground.

"You have my pregnancy symptoms?!" I was completely shocked to hear this.

Awe.

Why was it sweet that he was somehow emotionally attached to me and experiencing my baby symptoms for me?

Kristrin was going through a sympathetic pregnancy.

"Yes I do." Kristrin scratched his head a clearly feeling shy in saying so.

"And your not angry that I kept my pregnancy a secret?"

"Somewhat hurt. Especially after finding out that the others got to hear it from you before I did but I'm sure you must've had a your reasons. I'm just a little curious as to why you hid it?" Kristrin expressed.

"How did you know the others got to hear it from me before you did?" I knew I was completely straying away off topic.

"They've been acting strange for the past few days Bella. After finding out you might be pregnant I figured they knew."

"Well I didn't actually reveal it to them. They sort of found out by accident..." I stopped seeing Kristrin's confused state.

"I accidentally left my pregnancy test kit in plain sight and they actually saw it." Kristrin nodded his head in understanding.

"And I just felt it wasn't time to open up about my pregnancy, I was unsure and was uncertain about everything especially after what happened between you and I."

"I should've told you that I'm pregnant and I'm sorry if you might've felt hurt." I was hugged once again by Kristrin.

It felt right in his arms.

I knew I did not owe Kristrin an obligation or explanation to tell him that I was pregnant with his child but I just felt like a bad mother hiding his own child away from him.

"Your confirmation of my child was the best graduation gift you could've given me Bella." Kristrin tried to put his hand on my stomach but I managed to slap it away.

"I know this is a happy moment for you and all and I have no intentions of ruining it but even though I'm having your child it doesn't mean that I have forgiven you."

"I know but you will soon enough." He lifted my chin to look at him.

I still hadn't forgiven Kristrin for abandoning me for almost four years. He was going to have to work hard for my forgiveness.

It was then I remembered that my parents also new about my pregnancy.

"But why would my parents keep it a secret if they knew I was pregnant?"

"They wanted you to be comfortable enough to come clean and be open about it." Kristrin explained pulling me into his arms.

"Are they mad at me?" I questioned as my lips edged near to his.

"The absolute opposite Bella." Kristrin reassured planting soft peppery kisses to my lips while rubbing my stomach.

I was loving it but then I immediately pulled away realizing we were in public. It was then that I realized our friends plus his parents and my parents were pretending not to watch us closely.

After finding out that I was pregnant he could no longer keep his hands off me.

"Let's celebrate." Kristrin pulled my hand along tightly not wanting to let go of it.

"Um what do you mean by celebrate?"

I had only came to his graduation with the intention of confessing about our child and nothing more.

"I was hoping we could go baby shopping but my parents think it might be too early..." I immediately cut him off hearing Kristrin say his parents.

"Your parents know that I'm pregnant?" I lifted my eyebrow in confusion, disregarding the fact that he was talking about buying baby clothes while I was less than a month pregnant.

Did everyone knew about my pregnancy?

"Yes. My mom came to me yesterday and said she thinks that you might be pregnant." Kristrin explained but then went on to further say after still seeing my confused state.

"My mom explained you had asked her a very particular question which might specify that you were actually pregnant."

"Was I that obvious?" I mumbled to myself rather than to Kristrin.

Kristrin then took off a gold medal for best sports athlete and then placed it around my neck.

"What is this for?" I questioned holding up the medal in my hand.

"This is for the two most important people in my life. Your both my biggest drive to move forward." Kristrin teased.

"Are you ready to confess to your parents about our child together?" He questioned.

"I think so." I sighed watching Kristrin smile at my anxious state of telling my parents.

"We can always wait until your comfortable enough Bella."

"We?"

"Yes. Now that you've confirmed that your pregnant with my child I want to be apart of everything and every decision concerning my baby." Hearing his word made my heart swell.

Why hadn't he been aware of my pregnancy before?

"Your just saying this because now you'll have full access to my life." I stated folding my hands together.

"I won't lie to you Bella. Yes I'm more than happy. I'm fucking ecstatic that I'll have both of you in my life." Kristrin whispered in my ear.

"I know that your intentions means well but I'm not going to prance around with you as if everything is ok between the both of us because it is not."

I bit my bottom lip realizing how harsh I was being to Kristrin on his graduation day.

I felt torn standing before him. My heart wanted to drop everything and pretend that the past was in the past but my mind knew better than just simply forgiving him.

"Come on." Kristrin pulled my hand in his.

"Where are we going?" I questioned immediately pulling my hand from his.

Was he handsy today or what?

"We're leaving. Aren't you ready to leave?" Kristrin questioned and I looked at him confused.

"Yes but you still haven't answered my question?"

"My baby might only be an embryo now but I still want to see an ultrasound of him or her."
