Brad's P.O.V
Grace has been acting really weird this past day or two and I honestly don't know what's gotten into her. I've asked numerous times if she's okay but she always responds that she's 'just fine'. I knew she wasn't fine and something was worrying her but if she didn't want to talk about it, then I have to respect that.
After arriving late back in London last night, we just both went to bed and fell asleep pretty quickly. Today her and Amy went out into town to have some lunch and 'catch up'. Meaning me and Connor are spending the day together as Tristan and James are going to meet up with Fran and Alice.
As soon as the two boys leave, Connor comes straight over to me.
"Mate, I've been wanting to tell you something ever since you got back. And, I really couldn't talk about it to the boys because they don't have girlfriends." He says, running his hand through his hair.
"What is it?" I say, a frown beginning to form on my face.
"Last night, Amy was being funny and locked me out of the bedroom. When I was watching TV, I heard her shout 'what the fuck' really loudly. So, I slowly crept up to the door and all I heard her say was 'I think I'm pregnant'. And then all I catched was, "I won't say anything to Connor". I'm fucking worried man, I mean I love her but I don't want children yet." He says, looking like he's about to lose his mind. I really don't know what to say, I leave it a few seconds before I think of what to say.
"Shit, I can't even imagine if that was Grace. Man, no way do I want children yet either, that would just ruin a lot of things for me, especially tour and stuff." I blurt out.
"I know, I'm just hoping she just thinks that she is, and not actually is. I mean, we're so carefully man, I don't even think she could be." He sighs.
As he finishes his sentence, the two girls walk through the door. We put our conversion to an end and pretend to be watching TV. The girls hardly take any notice and both go into the bathroom.
"We're just gonna try on some of new clothes." Grace says quickly, shutting the door to the bathroom. Hmm, that was weird.
Grace's P.O.V
Me & Amy are currently in Boots, looking for a pregnancy test to buy for me. After looking and debating for 5 minutes, I pick one.
"I'll buy it for you, okay?" Amy says, looking into my eyes, reassuring me once again.
She quickly pays for the test, earning a rather strange look from the cashier. Once we get out of the shop, we decide to go straight home as the suspense was killing the both of us. As we're about to re-enter the apartment, Amy tells me to be quiet for a second.
"Can you hear that?" She whispers, putting her ear against the door to her & the boys' apartment.
"No, what is it?" I say, also putting my ear against the door.
We both hear Connor, very muffled from behind the door.
"So, I slowly crept up to the door and I all I heard her say was 'I think I'm pregnant'. And then all I catched was, "I won't say anything to Connor". I'm fucking worried man, I mean I love her but I don't want children yet." As the words left his mouth, Amy looks at me with wide eyes.
"What the fuck, you need to tell Brad that it's you! Connor thinks I'M the one who might be pregnant." She whispers, putting her head in her hands.
"Aim, I can't. Not yet, I'm too scared." I whisper, honestly.
"For godsake. Fine, I won't say anything until you decide to tell Brad." She whispers back.
We wait for a few seconds in silence before we heard Brad talk.
"Shit, I can't even imagine if that was Grace. Man, no way do I want children yet either, that would just ruin a lot of things for me, especially tour and stuff." He blurts out. Oh great.
I mean I know that if I might be pregnant it would obviously make things complicated for him, but is he trying to say he wouldn't even support me? If anything, hearing him say it makes me not want to tell him even more. Connor says something else before we both decide to just go into the apartment. I quickly say to Brad that we're gonna try some of our new clothes on in the bathroom, barely looking at his face. I just couldn't bare it.
As we get in the bathroom, I quickly shut the door behind me and Amy opens the packaging to the test.
"Turn around whilst I pee on it." I say, ready to do it.
"Jesus Grace, when we're drunk we pee in front of each other all the time." She says, rolling her eyes and turning around.
"Yeah well, I'm 100% sober in this exact minute so." I say, peeing on the stick.
Once I've done my business, I put it on the side and wait for the results to come back. After 20 minutes of waiting, I pick up the stick which gives me the news that could either ruin or save my life.
