He's My Lifeline

13- Surprise..

Oh god. What am I going to do? Should I tell him? I can't. What if he's not ready? I can't raise a baby by myself.

I sat on the bathroom floor, holding my head in my hands, waiting for the ten minutes to be up. After the alarm on my phone went off, I slowly walked over to the bathroom counter.

I looked at the stick and felt my heart drop into my stomach. I threw it in the trash and covered it with toilet paper, walking out of the bathroom and downstairs.

"What's wrong, sweetheart?" Buster asked.

I walked slowly over to the couch and sat down beside him. "Buster, you have to promise not to get mad.."

"Ok I promise." He said, worry written all over his face.

My eyes wandered everywhere but his. "Well, so, um I'm pregnant..."

"What?" I looked up at him and he was wearing a goofy grin on his face. "You're pregnant?"

I slowly nodded and he carefully but happily hugged me. "Wait, you're not angry?"

"No, why would I be?" I asked, that same smile still on his face.

"I honestly can't think of a good reason." I said smiling, causing him to hug me once more.

"I'm going to be a dad." He said.

"And a great one at that."

As I sat crisscross on the bathroom counter, straightening my hair for the game I heard Buster yell something.

"Babe. I'm about to leave. Where are you?" He yelled, passing by the bathroom and then backtracking. "Just kidding. Found you."

"Darling, will you please help me?" I asked, setting the straightener down.

"Of course. What's up?" He asked, setting his bag down.

"I need you to straighten the back of my hair. Just a few pieces." I said, doing puppy dog eyes.

"I don't want to burn you."

"Look watch," I said showing him how to straighten hair. "Just do that."

He took the straightener from me and grabbed a section of my hair and straightening it.

After he finished my hair I turned so I could see it in the mirror. "Wow babe. That actually looks really good."

"Thanks. But I really need to go now. I love you." He said, kissing me quickly.

"I love you too. I'll see you after your game." He kissed my cheek and then disappeared down the hallways towards the living room. I heard the front door shut and continued to get ready.
