Today my period is one week late... and above that, I started feeling nauseous in the early morning to the point where I had to throw up.
I made sure that Michael didn't notice... but I knew damn well what that means, and I was simply too scared to find out. Especially after what happened last time.

Based on my calculations... my period was supposed to come a week ago, my ovulation was two weeks ago... exactly when we had sex.
And now I'm suffering from morning sickness, vomiting, mood swings, tender breasts...

I sighed and silently snook out of bed, since Michael was still peacefully asleep. I walked straight into the bathroom and closed the door, before grabbing the pregnancy test box. I looked at it for a while with shaky hands... I need to find out.

So I walked over the toilet, pulled down my panties and peed on the stick for a few seconds, before placing it next to the sink.
I quickly washed my hands and started walking back and forth nervously. What if it's positive? No shit... of course it's going to be positive. What if I am going to have another miscarriage? What if I'm going to suffer from another placental abruption? How am I going to survive this? I can't do this...

After a few minutes, it was time to look at the results. I took a deep breath and walked closer to the sink, before looking down at the test.

I I

Two lines............ FUCK!

I immediately turned around and bent over the toilet, throwing up like hell.
Suddenly the door opened and Michael rushed inside.

"Jade? What the -... are you okay?" he asked in a raspy voice and sleepy eyes, while holding my head back. I didn't say anything... I quickly wiped my mouth before flushing the toilet and turning around to face him. "Baby?" he whispered and cupped my face. A tear rolled down my cheek...
"Look over there..." I whispered and nodded with my head towards the sink. He furrowed his brows and walked closer to the sink, freezing in the spot.
"Y-you're pregnant?" he asked with wide eyes.

I bit my bottom lip, trying to make it stop from quivering, and nodded.

"I don't know if I can do this again, Mike..." I choked and started crying, sitting down on the toilet. He immediately approached me and went down on his knees between my legs, holding both my hands in his.

"Baby... look at me." he whispered softly, "Jade." he said and placed his index finger under my chin, forcing me to look at him. "Everything is going to be fine... we are going to get the best Doctor that is out there, and we'll make sure that everything will run smoothly. This baby is going to survive... I'll do anything to make it happen. You're the strongest woman I've ever met. And you're not alone, I will stay by your side no matter what. Okay?" he cooed softly,
"But what about your Tour?" I whispered between the sobs,
"You're going to come with me." he said seriously,
"No... my boss is going to kill me." I replied while shaking my head,
"Then we'll have to talk to her. I'll do it. She will understand once we explain the whole situation. I'm not leaving you here all alone, Jade..." he said firmly, I sighed and covered my face with my hands. "Hey... baby... it's okay." he whispered softly and stood up, embracing me in a comforting embrace.
"I'm scared, Michael..." I choked into his chest,
"I know... me too. But this time it's going to be alright, I promise you." he whispered, and gently stroke my back. "We're having a child, Jade. For real this time..." he said and stepped back, flashing me a wide smile.

I bit my lower lip and nodded.

"We're having a baby..." I whispered, his smile grew wider and nodded, before cupping my face and pecking my lips.
"Let's have a bath, shall we? Maybe it'll help you relax a little..." he whispered, and I instantly nodded in agreement.
