As I walk up to the bathroom counter, I start to procrastinate. I don't wanna turn them over but I wanna know so bad. God with us so anxiety enduring. Ugh!
"Trav, I'm scared." I tell him.
"It's ok. It's gonna be ok." He comforts.
"Mhm. Ok. Yeah. It's gonna be ok." I say trying to convince myself. That's when out if no where, I feel pair of perfectly strong muscular arms wrap around my waist. "Thank you."
"It's ok Hun."
"K." I say taking a deep breath. "On the count of 3." We both started counting down form 3, and on 3 I flip the test. The words staring me dead in the eye.Pregnant.
The next thing I know, I'm holding the test in one hand, and hugging Travis so tight my arms are going numb.
"Oh my god." I say through tears.
"Tay. We're gonna be parents. Like real parents."
"I love you so damn much Trav."
"I love you too Tay," he continues. "And our baby." He says making me cry just a slight bit harder. And in that moment I subconsciously move my one hand from around his neck to lay on my still flat stomach. Suddenly I feel him lay his hand on mine.
"You are going to be and amazing father." I tell him. "I just know it."
"And you are going to me the best mother any child could ever ask for." He compliments.In the midst of the chaos of our lives right now, there's a profound happiness and love and emotion. This is the happiest I've been in years.
"Trav." I say with a time of realization.
"Hm. Yeah babe." He says back.
"How're we gonna tell my students and your team?" I ask, addressing the concern.
"I don't know. That's a good question."
"Maybe I could like, do something with their music?" I suggest.
"You should totally do that. They wouldn't suspect anything. Or at least I hope not."
"It's fine they probably won't. But yeah that's a good idea. But are you gonna do for the team though. I mean, there's only one student in the entire school who knows we're dating. The staff doesn't even know." I remind him.
"Yeah good point. So should we tell them before the students?"
"Yeah that's probably wise. How should we tell them though?"
"Well I can propose a meeting before school to the principal?"
"That'd work." He says.
"So pre-school meeting?"
"Yeah." She•••••••
The next week
•••••••"Hey." I greet Trav as he walks into the teachers' lounge.
"You ready for this?" He asks.
"Yeah." I say taking a breath.
"You got this."
"Thanks." I say pensively.School staff slowly start filling the lounge. One at a time. Minutes by minute. Person by person.
Soon enough the principal and vice principal walk in. The air just got way more... is anxiety an aura? Cause if it's not I really should be.
Now all the staff were here. In the same room. All at once.
The meeting started 5 minutes later with the principal addressing the beginning of the meeting.
"Alright so, thank you guys for being here this morning, but I'm actually going to turn the floor over to Ms. Swift."
As he says this, I begin to make my way toward the front of the lounge. As I make my way up, I can feel the eyes on me.
"Ok so, before I begin can I actually have Travis come up with me for this one. Please." I say and he just stood up and gladly walked up next to me. "Ok so before I do say anything, we are going to do something to tell you something. So if you wouldn't mind using ur whiteboard and marker to just write down answers that'd be great."
Before I say anything else, they already have their markers and boards ready.
"These are gonna seem really odd and out if the blue by the way. Mk so question one: am I dating anybody?" As I am this question they were all quick to write the word 'no'. "Ok so wrong. I'll explain in a second. Question 2: is Travis dating anybody?" They were once again quick to write 'no'. "Alright so who wants to know who we're dating?" They all raised their hands.
"Ok so how do I say this. Ok so how about I just show you guys? That work with you?" They all nodded yes.
That's when I just grab Travis's hand, and pull him in for a kiss. Why a kiss you may ask. Well I don't know. But it worked. After we break away, I hear cheers coming from the other staff.
"Thank you guys. But anyway, this actually kind of has to deal with the second thing we have to tell you guys. So we do actually have a secret you guys would wanna know, and that secret is that..." I let my voice trail off to leave them in suspense.
To tell them, I pull Travis's arm placing his hand on my stomach with my hand on his. When I do this I can see the wheels turning in their heads. I reach behind me and grab the hall ultrasound picture and let them unfold, earning more applause and cheers from the audience.
"Thank you guys. It means a lot." Travis thanks the staff for their amazing support.
This is gonna be great. I can just tell.
