Best Friends (A Joe Sugg Fanfiction)

Chapter Thirty-One

A few weeks later

EMILY'S POV

Me and Joe have now been going out for a few weeks now and it was amazing to have him back again, he had gone to Bath to see his mum so he was going to be staying over there for the weekend. I missed not being with him but luckily I wasn't alone because Poppy was back home! She was now happy and healthy running around everywhere. I decided to make some breakfast for myself because I was hungry and thanks to Joe I was eating right again. I shoved my porridge in the microwave and waited for a few minutes. I sat down on the sofa and ate the porridge quite quickly. I was getting on with some housework when I suddenly felt really sick, I ran to the bathroom and ended up being sick multiple times. I felt fine until today which was really strange. I tried to carry on doing housework but I couldn't because I kept running to the bathroom being sick.

What if I was? No no I can't be... Better to be safe than sorry I guess, I got in my car and drove to the pharmacy to pick up a pregnancy test. My stomach was aching because I was really nervous of the result. I drove back home and rushed to get the test over and done with. After 3 minutes of waiting I took a look at the test. I don't believe it...

It was positive.

How would I tell Joe? And how would Tanya and Jim react to the news... I didn't want to have to tell everyone because I was scared especially after what happened to Oscar, what if it happened again? I wouldn't be able to cope with losing another baby. I started to worry about losing this baby too I didn't want to lose this one... I didn't know what to do I couldn't tell anyone. One person came to mind though, I didn't know how they would react though. I got on the train and after a few hours I arrived in Bath. I knocked on the door and Graham answered, 'Emily! Lovely to see you!' he said happily before pulling me in to a hug. 'Graham!' I said equally as happy. He invited me in and made me a drink of tea. 

'Graham, I need to speak to you' I said a little sadder now.

'Sure, you know you can tell me anything' he said smiling at me.

'Well... I just found out that I was pregnant-'

'that's wonderful!' he said happily.

'but what if I lose it like I did Oscar?' I said crying slightly so he pulled me into a hug.

'that won't happen Em, you can't think like that' he said softly.

'But what if it does?' I said crying still.

'Shhh... It won't I promise. But whose baby is it?' he asked a little confused.

'W-well its Joe's...' I said slightly scared that he would be angry.

'You guys are back together?' he asked happily.

'Yes!' I said happily because he wasn't angry. 'But please don't tell Joe that I'm pregnant you're the only person that knows okay?' I said slightly scared that he would mention something to Joe. 

'I won't but you need to tell him. He's on his way over why don't you tell him now?' 

'This early into the pregnancy?' I questioned.

'Why wait?' as he was saying this the front door opened and in walked Joe.

'Em? What are you doing here?' he asked puzzled.

'I'll go stick the kettle on' Graham said allowing us to talk alone.

'I have to speak to you Joe' I said while my hands were shaking, Joe looked scared as though he thought that I was going to break up with him. 'Okay...' he said.

'I...I'm preg...pregnant' I stuttered before looking up at him to see his reaction he didn't say anything for a while but he finally pulled me into a hug, 'that's fantastic' he said happily, this made me less nervous now because he reacted positively. I was still scared that I would fuck it up some how and lose the baby though. 'What's troubling you?' Joe asked grabbing my hand. 

'N-nothing, I'm just gonna go for a walk' I said before rushing off and out of the door where the tears started to fall. I ran to the park where I used to play football and Joe used to watch me, I ran to the middle of the football pitch and sank to the floor. Tears were flowing down my cheeks and I couldn't stop them from falling. I just wanted this all to be okay but I knew that something was going to go wrong. I didn't care if people were looking at me and I didn't care what I looked like.
