7 - Tao

"Please, oh please. Don't let this be true." You read the last test and hung your head low.

"I'm pregnant. Oh God, what is Tao going to think? What is he going to do? I can't-" You had taken a bunch of pregnancy tests after throwing up this morning. Tao had already left for work, so it wouldn't be a problem until later.

"How am I going to hide this?" You trashed the test and walked out the bathroom. Tears had began to fall down your face, but honestly, you didn't care. You slid your back against the wall. Curling up into a ball, you began to sob; thousands of tears streaming down your face. Finally calming down, you stood up..
Grabbing a tissue, you wiped your tears.

"Oh Y/N," You said to yourself, "You have to think of a way to hide it from him." You said. Immediately, you started cleaning up the evidence. Flushing and cleaning the toilet, removing the pregnancy tests from the trash can and switching out the bags, fixing yourself up. After a few hours of cleaning, you finally got back to the pregnancy tests. "Hmm. What to do with these?" Just as you said that, the front door shut.

Quickly, you ran from the bathroom and into your bedroom, which was across the hall. Diving, you slid the tests under the bed. You stood up, and dust yourself off quickly.

"Coming." You said. Running from the room, you ran into Tao's warm embrace. You look up at him.

"How was your day so far?" You asked, smiling.

"It was alright, until I got home to see you, which made it better. Also, I brought lunch." He said, holding up a bag. You snuggled your head into his chest.

"I'm just going to run to the bathroom real quick. Go head and start without me." Tao said and walked off. Sighing in relief, you sat down at the table and opened the bag. You pulled out both of the sandwiches and unwrapped one. Tao came back into the dinning room and sat down next to you. You handed him his sandwich.

"Mmm. This is good. Where did you get this from?" You asked. Tao grinned.

"A restaurant down the street from my office. I should have bought another one for you, considering you're pregnant."
Your face flushed in shock.

"Tao, I'm sorry. I-"

"Sorry for what!? This is amazing! You have a mini me inside of you! A tiny panda!" He said, softly poking your stomach.

"So, you're not mad?" You asking, looking up at him.

"No! Why would I be?" He said, and this made you smile. You hugged Tao, burying your face in his chest again.

"I love you Y/N." He said, his chin resting in your hair.

"I love you too Tao."
