9 Weeks into Marriage
'NORA EVANS SCOTT ARIVES AT AIRPORT WITH FOUR, HER BROTHER PATRICK, NIECE AND NEPHEW AND A BABY BUMP!'
'Is there a bun in the oven for newlyweds Keenan Scott and Nora Evans Scott?'
'Baby bump watch for Nora Evans Scott!'

"You're not buying into this too?" I ask Keenan.
"I- I don't know." He says.
"Keenan, I am not pregnant." I tell him for the fifth time.
"Well how would I know?" He asks still pacing around the house.
"I don't know... you just have to trust me on this." I say.
He only glares at me.
"I'm just not pregnant."
"You're not being very convincing."
"Well, I don't know what to tell you, because I'm not pregnant."
"Nora..." He pleads.
"Then what do you want me to do? Take a test?" I can't believe this.
"Yes, please anything that will convince me that you're not pregnant.0000"
"Fine, if you really-" I was interrupted by my phone ringing.
Rolling my eyes I answer. "I am not pregnant."
"Are you sure because, everyone is on baby bump watch for you."
"Emily... Pete, I can assure the both of you I am not pregnant." I tell them on the phone.
"I sure as hell hope not." Pete says on the phone. "That would mean you slept with Keenan, meaning you broke your contract."
"We didn't, we haven't." I look towards Keenan.
"Are you sure?" He asks.
"Positive." I tell them.
"So you wouldn't have a problem taking a pregnancy test would you?" Emily come back to the phone and asks.
"Not at all." I say.
"Okay, we will both be at your house in twenty minutes."
"Okay." I sigh, hanging up the phone.
"What's going on?" Keenan asks.
"Well, they don't seem to take my word, so they are both coming down here so I can take a pregnancy test."
"That way neither of us will get spotted purchasing one." Keenan says.
I roll my eyes at him.
"Let me know when they get here." I tell him leaving the living room and heading up to my room.
.
"Nora." My name is being called throughout the house. Somehow I managed to take a nap.
"Nora." There's a knock at my bedroom door. "It's Emily; can I come in?"
"Just leave the test on the dresser." I inform her. I'd rather not have to tell her another time that I'm not pregnant.
I wait until she is gone to get out of the bed.
I take the box out of the bag and head into the bathroom.
.
"She was just lying in bed." I hear Emily as I make my way down the stairs with the test in my hand.
