Trying For A Baby/Finding Out

Shit shit shit. I think to myself leaning over the toilet. I'm 5 days late, my boobs are hurting and now I'm throwing up. Taking in a deep breath I flush the toilet and stand up slowly. I need to go to the store and get a pregnancy test, so that's what I do.

When I arrive home I take the test, the next 5 minutes are the most nerve racking in my life. I sit on the toilet with Nyx's head in my lap looking at me with those damn puppy dog eyes. When the timer goes off I look down at the stick.
Positive. Shit. 
I take a shaking breath in trying not to let the tears fall. I know the risks of unsafe sex, neither of us planned that night to be having sex, and I know plan b doesn't always work but I never thought it would happen to me, but here I am. I know that I'm going to keep this baby, even if I know my dad will probably disown me. I need to tell Kelly I'm pregnant, he deserves a chance to be apart of their life. Taking the test I put it in a purse and grab my car keys to make my way to the firehouse I know Kelly works at. We've been chanting over the last 3 weeks but no more than a phone call or FaceTime.

"Hi is Kelly Severide about?" I ask a woman getting out of an ambulance
"Yeah he should be inside. I'll take you in" I follow her into the firehouse "hey Severide, you've got a visitor"
"Thank you" I give a smile at the woman
"Hey YN what are you doing here?"
"Can we talk, somewhere private?"
"Sure. Follow me" I follow Kelly into an office, I guess it's is "so what's going on? Everything ok?"
"Not really no. Erm... ok I errrm... shit this is harder than I though"
"Take your time. Take a deep breath then tell me" I do as Kelly says with his arms crossed over his chest
"Kelly I'm pregnant" I almost whisper
"And the babies mine?" I just nod my head "shit" he takes a seat in his chair and rubs his face. I take out the pregnancy test and place it in front of him
"I'm sorry. I took plan b after that night, but obviously it didn't work. Look you don't have to be apart of this babies life. I just wanted to give you a choice" when Kelly doesn't say anything "I errm I'll see myself out" I sniffle, but before I get to open the door to the office I'm stopped by Kelly
"Wait" I turn around with tears in my eyes "a couple of years ago my friend Shay and I were going to have a baby together. She was killed, arson. She'd be shouting at me if I pass up an opportunity to be a dad" Kelly stands up and walks over to me and pulls me into a hug
"I'm sorry to hear about your friend. I bet she would have been a fab mom"
"She would have been. I want to be a dad to this little one... if you'll let me" I pull away and look at Kelly's face
"Of course. Thank you for not going bat shit crazy" I chuckle trying to lighten the mood a little
"No point. Not just your fault. I didn't wrap it up. I haven't asked you how your feeling? Have you got morning sickness? Aches? Any dizziness?"
"Morning sickness started today I guess, first time I threw up, boobs hurt like hell"
"Move in with me"
"I'm sorry what?" I frown, did I hear that correctly?
"Move in with me. It will make things easier, I can help you during the pregnancy and then when the babies born they won't have to go back and forth between houses. We can help one another"
"I've known you all but 3 weeks and you want me to move in with you?" I raise an eyebrow "it's not just me, I've got Nyx to think about as well"
"Let me help you. There might be days when you struggle to walk Nyx. Especially later on in the pregnancy"
"Ok, I'll think about it" the fire alarm starts to blare
"I have to go. I'll ring you later"
"Ok. Speak to you later Kelly" he gives me another hug before we both leave the office. I say goodbye to the woman who showed me in earlier and go to my car to go home.
