Spin The Bottle

Revelation

"You know you should really lock your door. Anyone could walk in!'' Dean said as he turned to look at Roman. "Bro. I've been looking for you'' 

Dean had been avoiding me and Seth as much as he could, and he spoke to us without even looking in our direction.

''I was just catching up with Jaime'' Roman replied

Dean made a disgruntled noise in response 

''Listen, I know you guys aren't exactly on good terms at the moment, but I think that all three of you need to talk'' Roman added

''Why?'' Dean replied 

Roman just shook his head before making his way towards the door. ''I'm gonna leave you to it'' 

I froze. I wasn't ready for this. Where the hell did I even start? Oh, by the way, I'm pregnant and it could be yours or it could be Seth's. I don't know because I was drunk and irresponsible and can't even remember if we used protection. Yeah, that would make everything so much better. 

''What is Roman talking about?'' Dean asked, addressing Seth

''Um. You might want to sit down'' Seth replied.

''No. I don't want to sit down. What I want is for one of you to tell me what the hell is going on!'' Dean said as he crossed his arms across his chest.

''I...um...I'' goddamn it, why was this so hard 

"Spit it out. We haven't got all day!'' Dean snapped.

''Hey!'' Seth warned. "Don't speak to her like that." 

You could cut the tension in the room with a knife and, before long, Seth and Dean were arguing. Pushing one another around as they threw insults back and forth. My pleas for them to stop were ignored, so I did the only thing I could think of. 

''I'M PREGNANT!!'' 

Dean looked like he had seen a ghost. "What!?'' 

I felt a sense of relief at finally telling Dean the truth, but I was anxious about how he'd react. So far, it didn't look good.

''Dean, please sit down before you fall down" I begged 

''How do you even know it's mine?'' Dean finally asked. ''I mean, you and Seth have been messing around for months, right?''

''I don't know. Not for sure" I replied. "I don't even know how far along I am and I don't remember if we used protection when we-''

''We didn't'' Dean confirmed. ''You weren't really in the right state to ask, so I just assumed that you were on the pill or something'' 

''I was, but I had been coming off it and changing to a different one'' I explained 

''When did you find out?'' Dean asked

''Only about an hour ago'' I replied

Dean finally sat down. "Well, shit...I'm not gonna lie. I've never imagined myself being a dad. I mean, I'd probably drop the poor kid on its head or something." 

I sighed. "It's not exactly what I envisioned for myself. I wanted a career, but it's happened and now we have to deal with it"

"I agree" Seth added. "I never planned to be a dad before the age of 30, but what's done is done." 

"Is there a way to find out who the father is?" Dean asked

"I don't know" I answered

"You can" Seth said as he looked it up on his phone. 'A blood sample is taken from the mother after the eighth week of pregnancy and a cheek swab is taken from the potential father. The samples are sent to a lab for analysis. The lab compares the fetal DNA to the potential father's DNA.'

I nodded. "I don't mind getting the test done, if it's what you both want." 

They both agreed and the next few hours comprised of Dean, Seth and I talking about what to do next. I had made a doctor's appointment for the test to be done and Dean had apologized for the way he'd been acting. We all agreed that although we didn't feel ready to become parents, we would not end the pregnancy and, just like Seth, Dean had agreed to be there for me if the baby was his. I missed how close we all used to be and I hoped this baby would bring us back together. I didn't want him or her to be brought into an unhappy environment. The future was uncertain, and I did not know what would happen once I told my employer about my pregnancy. I couldn't continue being a fitness trainer while being pregnant.

''Are you alright?'' Seth asked

Dean had left and Seth and I were watching TV. Well, I say watching, but neither one of us was paying attention to it. 

''I'm scared'' I admitted as I tried to hold back tears. 

In just a few short months, my life had been turned completely upside down and now so had Seth's and Dean's head with it. 

''Everything's gonna be alright'' Seth reassured 

''I hope so'' I whispered

''We'll get through this together'' Seth said as he kissed me
