HAILEY

Chapter 34

            Hailey Hughes POV 

      "You are my heart, my life, my one and only thought." — Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

        It's three days into the panthers roadie , they won their game last night against Dallas . I'm still sick , each day I've stared my mornings in the bathroom throwing up . I'm so tired all of the time and achy but usually the nausea goes away after an hour or so but today it's still here .

      I've spent most of the day in bed with a bucket on the floor to the side , I can't  seem to keep any food down . I haven't told Matt that it's this bad today and that I didn't even go into to the bakery this morning . Thankfully our sweet neighbors are taking care of Cooper , he's still a puppy full of energy and I just couldn't do it today .

      I texted Poppy and Rue to cancel our dinner plans for tonight . Rue basically gave me no choice and said they were coming to take care of me after work . I love my best friends , but I think I may just puke on them if they get to close to me . I decided to take a nap hoping that I'll feel less nauseous when I wake up .
   
      Two and a half hours later I wake up and definitely feel like the nausea has passed . I pick up my phone and see a few texts from my fiancé . Still not over the fact I get to call him that . I quickly text him back and agree to FaceTime tonight after his team dinner .

       A half hour later Poppy and Rue walk into Matty and I's bedroom with multiple bags in their hands . " we brought Panera !" Poppy says excitedly . " thank you , the nausea has seemed to pass so I think I'll finally be able to keep some food down ." I tell them as they climb in bed with me and setting up food trays for us to eat on .

       " thank you for bringing the food " I tell both my best friends as I continue to eat .
" of course , it sucks you're not feeling well ." Rue says , we continue to eat and catch up on each others lives we've all be so busy so tonight was supposed to be a catch up dinner . I'm glad they decided to come over when I tried to cancel .

      " ok so we also brought a few items from lush , so you can take a nice warm bath after being so sick . We even got you a new candle !" Poppy says showing me what's in the paper bag she brought , I look over to Rue to see what she's brought . " I brought wine but I also bought something for you to take ." I squint my eyes confused by what she means only has to drip at the box she pulled out of the paper bag .

     " I bought you a pregnancy test . look I know you're freaking out but girl , you've been sick for weeks and matt and you fuck like bunnies . I wouldn't be surprised if there's a bun in that oven ." Holy shit!.... Holy shit am I pregnant?! No I can't be I have an IUD I mean it last three years and I had it put in last year .

    " I have an IUD" I say quietly scared if I talk any louder I might cry . " I saw a picture on Facebook of a baby that was just born holding the moms IUD in its hand " poppy says shrugging her shoulders . I know I've had a bit of baby fever after seeing Matt hold his baby cousin during Christmas but I'm not sure I'm ready for a baby .

      Im turning twenty three in a few months , I'm opening my second bakery next month and I'm about to plan a wedding . " hey calm down , first just take the test don't work yourself up if it's negative." Rue tells me as she hugs me . I walk into my bathroom and read the instructions on the test before taking it . I leave it on the counter and go sit on the bed with my best friends as we wait for the timer to go off .

      I spend the next few minutes trying to picture what it would be like if I had a baby right now . I picture matty holding them for the first time and creating a space in my office above the bakery for the baby to nap while I work . I even picture bring the baby to Matt's games . I know it would be hard but matty and I could get through it together . We have a great support system too.

       I'm the trimmer goes off " I can't look I'm too nervous!" " I'll look don't worry " poppy says walking into the bathroom and grabbing the test .  " so um it's negative " my shoulders slump and I suddenly feel really sad , I guess I was kind of happy to have maybe been pregnant. Rue hugs me before walking over to Poppy to throw out the test into the empty box in her hands .

     " POPPY ! This is positive not negative! Hailey you're pregnant !" Holy crap ... oh my god ... I'm.. pregnant ! How? Oh my god this is why I'm not getting any better , I'm having morning  sickness . Thank god I haven't drank anything since Christmas . Even on new years I just didn't feel like it , I guess that was my mind trying to protect the baby . Oh my god a baby .

     " holy crap , I'm gonna be a mom!" The girls rush me and we have a group hug . All three of us crying happy tears . " you have to call Matt and tell him he's going to be so excited !"  I shake my head as I wipe the tears away " I want to tell him in person maybe in a cute way . We should look at ideas on Pinterest ." 

       " yes oh my god and you can record it to show you're baby in the future ." Poppy says excitedly . " your baby is going to be so hot when it grows up !" rue says and we die laughing on the bed . But she's not wrong , Matty and I are gonna have some good looking kids .

     I have no clue how I am not going to spill the beans every time I speak to Matty until he gets home from the roadie. I have four days until Matt is home , it's going to be hard to keep this a secret but I know it will be so worth it .
