Be in Love With Me Alone (Tayley)

26: The Sound of It's Beating...

Chapter 26:

Hayley's POV:

We sat in the waiting room of my OBGYN. Nervously, I tapped my foot on the floor like a mad woman.

Weirdly, Taylor was surprisingly calm throughout this news.

Which is in fact why I was scared the most.

What if he wanted this his whole life. And I single handily took it away from him with my condition. And now he has such high hopes that this will end well. But what if it doesn't? What if it goes horribly wrong? I can't take that away from him. I can't do this to us.

He holds my hand and smiles at me warmly.

It's as if he could read my mind.

I have no choice but to smile back at his warm face.

"Everything will be okay Hayles." He says into my ear.

His newly growing beard tickles the back of my ear.

I giggle slightly getting him to smile even bigger.

I sigh and nod.

Not really know what else to say at this point.

It was all just a huge waiting game from now on.

Waiting to be called in.

Waiting to take some tests.

Waiting to have another ultra sound done on me.

Waiting for the news...

Just constantly waiting.

I unintentionally gripped onto his hand.

Digging my fingers into the back of it.

He rose our interlocked fingers and placed a gentle kiss on it.

It made me calm down.

If only for a little bit,

But it was enough for me to just take a breather.

I was tired beyond belief.

I haven't slept very much since Kat told me the test came out positive.

I almost didn't believe her.

Well, actually I didn't.

*Flashback*

"Well?" I say fully impatient.

Her eyes go wide and she shoots her head up.

"It's positive."

The words not processing properly.

"Wh-what?" my throat instantly going dry.

"Hayley." She grins. "The test is positive." Her voice full of excitement.

"This can't be right." I shake my head. "But I can't be. I can't have babies remember?"

She nods.

"But it says that you are indeed having your own little one."

"Test could be wrong." The pessimistic side of me coming to the surface.

She sighs. "Want to take another test to make sure?"

"Do you have anymore?"

She nods. "Yes. I bought three, just to make sure."

A small smile tugs on my face.

"But I don't have to, you know, go anymore."

"Right." She runs out of the bathroom and comes back seconds later with a water bottle. She hands it over to me. "Jug it all. Let it settle. And then take the other tests."
