What Happens in Vegas: Doesn't stay in Vegas

Chapter 25

Short but umm... there may or may not be something at the end of the chapter. 

Enjoy....

Carinas POV

Maya's knee in my thigh is not the best feling to wake up to. Her body is curled up into a ball and she's hugging a pillow. I move to the side and check the time. My alarm is set to go off in 12 minutes. I decide to just turn it off now and start my daily routine. Maya's first alarm sounds just as I am putting my tie on. 

My phone buzzes on the nightstand. It's a number that I don't recognise. Very few people have my number, so I answer it. "Deluca."

A crying whiny voice sounds on the other end of the phone. "Honey, my father is going to jail for life. You have to help me."

WHAT THE FUCK. What the fuck did I just hear? "Miss Cavanaugh. You are insane if you think I am going to help you or your father. You are nothing to me. Don't ever call me again. That bastard murdered my papa and you have the nerve to ask me to help you? Your father is going to rot in prison, just as he deserves. End of story. Period!"

I hear a gasp but it's not from Miss Cavanaugh. I hang up the phone and look towards Maya. "What is it?" I ask. 

She is looking something up on her phone. "Oh shit!" She drops her phone and rushes to the bathroom. Curiosity take a hold of me, so I pick up her phone. She has her calendar app open. I quickly understand why she is freaked iut. She is 4 days late... OH MERDA. She is 4 days late.

(Oh Shit)

I knock on the door. I can hear her retching inside. I try to open the door but it's locked. Damn it. After a few minutes I hear the shower running. I dial Ryans number. It's the first time ever I don't know how to say what I need. "I need you to run a quick errand for me. I need you to get a pregnancy test. Discretion is high. Please."

I hear a throat clear on the other end followed by a very awkward. "Yes Ma'am". Ryan is quick. He brings the blue and white box and hands it to me before making a hasty exit just as Maya's shower cuts off. I knock on the door on the bathroom. "Maya. Can I come in please?"

She unlocks the door but doesn't open it. I take a deep breath to calm my nerves, then slowly open the door. The sight in front of me breaks my heart. 

She is on the floor with her arms wrapped around her knees. Her head is buried and she is wrapped in a white bathrobe. She is up against the furthest corner from the door. She is scared. I can see her physically shaking. 

I set the box on the counter and bend down so I am in front of her. "I know you are scared bambina, but we agreed to be together. That includes this. We don't know anything for sure yet. Can you take the test please?" She lifts her head just enough for me to see a tear fall down her red cheek. I wipe it away with my thumb and give her a kiss on the forehead. She takes a deep bretah much like I did before making my way in here, then nods. 

"Would you like me to step outside and wait there or I can just turn around?" The bathroom is pretty big and the toilet is sectioned off. I really want to be here for this but I don't want her to be uncomfortable. This is all about her right now. 

"Stay. I need your help. My hands are shaking too much." I open the box and read the directions out loud. I may be a woman but I have never had to do this sort of thing before. I don't have that part and I always was careful in my past and with Maya, well she was a virgin before me so she hasn't done this either. I guess it's a first for everyone today. 

Pretty straightforward, just pee on the end of the stick then cover it and lay it flat. I open the packaging and hand her the stick. I walk around the partition and wait. 

Only a few minutes later and I am holding Maya in my arms. She is still shaking but not nearly as much as she was. We are both holding our breaths as we watch a line make its way across the little window on the stick. This moment feels like a lifetime but it is really only about 30 seconds before a pink cross appears. 

It's positive!

Maya looks up to my face which I know has a goofy grin. It's positive. She is pregnant. My wife is pregnant. My wife is going to have my baby!

She breaks the silence. "Carina. Y...you are okay w..with this?" She has an odd look on her face. Guilt? Surprise? Is that hope?

"Yes. Mrs Deluca. I am okay with my beautiful wife carrying my baby." I rub her lip with thumb. She smiles under my touch. "I am more than okay." I say before I give her a kiss. 

Well that was something.
