We continued walking towards dollar tree. Joel held on tight to my left hand, his fingers not even getting to the very cracks of mine. His hands were about twice the size of mine. I didn't care though, because for some reason, I liked his hands the size they were. They just, I don't know, fit him nicer than small hands would.
Once we finally got to dollar tree, Joel opened the door, Tori went in, I followed, then he came behind me. We walked in and walked right into the check out line. We grabbed 10 of the pregnancy tests from the side of the conveyor belt. We paid for them. $10 in all. We walked out, and went on our way to Joel's house. His parents, brothers, and sister, were all out of town for a couple of days. He opened the garage, I ran through, opened the door, went past the basement door, and up the stairs to my right, turned right, and ran straight. I then turned right, then right to go up the first three stairs. Then I turned left to go up the remaining two or three. I ran to the very end of the hall, and slammed the door behind me. I sat on the counter for just a moment to catch my breath.
"Babe, can I please come in with you??" Joel asked softly through the door.
"Why?? I have to pee on a stick. Do you really want to have to see that??" I asked, starting to tear up.
"It's nothing I haven't seen before, right??" He replied in a seductive voice.
"Okay. Sure. Whatever." I said quietly, almost under my breath. He walked in, closed the door behind him, and locked it.
"Really?? Your best friend is getting locked out at this point in time?? I think I should at least be invited in!!" Tori piped up from outside of the door.
"Would you like to come in, Tor??" I asked, a smirk on my face beaming from ear to ear.
"Pssh. NOO!! Why the HELL would I want to do THAT?? I don't want to see my best friends vagina!!"
"That's what I thought." I said, starting to snicker.
Joel picked me up to my feet, pulled down my pants, and sat me down on the toilet seat. I felt like such a child. I couldn't even seem to do this myself. I just let him do it.
He opened a box. He pulled out the stick, pulled off the cover, and stuck it underneath me.
"Piss away..." He said laughing. I peed a little bit, then stopped. I need to save enough pee for the other sticks. He stood up, put the cover on, and hid the electronic screen from me.
He threw it back in the box, pulled out the next stick, and stuck it under me. I peed a little, he put the cap on, and watched long enough for an answer. He threw it back into the box, and did another. He kept doing this until they were all gone, every time, his smile getting bigger and bigger. I didn't even need to ask. I already knew.
I stood up, and he pulled up my pants and underwear for me. He then pulled up my shirt, kissing my stomach. Then he pulled my shirt back down, stood up, hugged me tight, and whispered in my ear.
"You're pregnant. They all came out positive." He said starting to laugh just a little bit.
"You won't leave me, alone, with this baby, would you??" I whispered, starting to cry.
"Never. I would never put you through that. I think this is a great opportunity for both of us." He said, hugging me just a little tighter, but not tight enough to squish the day old fetus in my stomach.
