Beatles one-shots

John

(A/n)This was a one shot for my friend Olivia. Hope you like it

     "Argh" you groan as you get up from bed. The sun is shining through the shades and you can see John laying beside you, peacefully sleeping. You go to the wash room and again you don't have it. You haven't had your period all month and you were starting to worry. Thoughts came through your head 'how will he react if I'm....' 'How would mum and dad react...' 'Will John leave me if I'm....' 'Would he be okay if I'm...' You stopped yourself. What's the point in worrying if your not even sure?
     You decided to take out the dreaded pregnancy test that you hide in the bathroom cabinet. As you took it out you got I more nervous. 'What if he hates me after..' 'What if he's mad I didn't tell him sooner...' 'How would we support another person...' All the questions you had been trying to avoid came. After you did the test you knew you needed to get the answers because you were pregnant...

     You couldn't think about anything else. The questions came flooding back 'how will he react..' Was the biggest question of all of them. The question every other question was based off of. 'How will he react?' 'How will I tell him?' 'When will I tell him?' You couldn't help but to cry. 'I shouldn't be this scared.' You thought but continued to cry anyway. 'What if he leaves me?' 'what if he finds out before I tell him?' 'What if he doesn't want a kid with me?' 'Will he be able to leave me?' You couldn't help it the worst things came to your mind. Until you finally stopped 'I just have to tell him before I tell anyone else' you thought 'I have to tell him today'
     "Andra? Are you okay in there?" You hear John ask.
     "Yeah I'm fine." You answer.
     "Okay." You hear him say groggily and you could tell he just woke up.
     You wait for him to walk away before you wash your hands and walk out. You hear stuff in the kitchen and walk in to see John making breakfast. You smile at him and sit down. He puts pancakes on your plate and kisses you on the forehead before putting pancakes on his own plate and sitting down. You eat your breakfast mostly in silence. John asked you how you slept and you said fine and that was about it. You usually don't talk much in the morning because it's too early to say much.
     You both finish your breakfast and John gets ready to go to the studio. You sit on the couch and relax thinking of ways to tell him so he wouldn't get mad. 'Cook him diner?' 'Go on a date and tell him then?' 'Give him a hallmark card?' You didn't know what to do. He kissed you goodbye and left for the studio. You sat there alone wondering what to do
     You think of more ways to tell him and finally decide you need help. Soon the phone rang and you get up to answer it "Hello"
     "Hey Andra" you hear your brother Paul say
     "Hey Paul I thought you were recording today?"
     "I'm not feeling too good. I think I have the flu." Paul said. You didn't notice it before but Paul sounded pretty bad and it made you forget about the baby.
     "Paul you sound awful I'll be right over"
     "Thank you Andra" he says and you hang up.
     You thought of telling Paul and asking for his help. Sure he didn't really like the thought of you and John being together ,but he knew how much he meant to you and you knew he would be able to help. He spends so much time with John he must have some idea of how he would react.
     You get ready and go over Paul's house to take care of him. You get there and knock on the door. "Come in",you hear him say, "it's open"
     "Hey Paul" you say as you walk in.
"Hey Andra" he says. He is laying on the couch with a box of tissues next to him and a pillow falling out behind him. His blanket is only covering part of him and You notice His face is pale and his eyes are almost closed. You go over to him quickly and start fixing his pillow and blanket.
    "You need some soup" you say once your done and go to the kitchen to fix him some. The only thing you have on your mind is helping your brother until you give him the soup. Then once you're relaxed you start thinking about the baby and how you'll tell John. You decided now would be the time to ask Paul about it. Even when he's sick he still gives you good advice.
"Paul?" you ask him quietly
"Hmm?" He looks up in response
"I need to tell you something. It's kind of important"
"What is it" he says in between spoonfuls of soup. You take a deep breath.
"Well this morning I was in the bathroom and I got kind of worried so I took- I took a pregnancy test and it.... It was positive..."  You said fast and then slowed down when you said it was positive. You watched Paul's reaction. You saw him stop eating soup and just smile.
"You're gonna have a baby!" He said more excited then you thought he'd be
"Yeah! but how will John react?" You asked. Still scared for Johns reaction
"Are you worried about that?" Paul asked confused.
"Yeah" you said it like it was obvious "I don't know what he'll say, how I should tell him, if- if he'll stay with me after" you said frowning at the last part.
"Andra," he began "John will be fine. You just need to tell him and he'll be fine. He loves you and would never leave you" Paul said and then took another bite of soup.
"Thanks" you say "that helped a lot actually"

     You stayed at Paul's until he told you he was okay. But then a little longer just to make sure. Then when you finally got home you saw that it would be an hour until John got home.
     You started making dinner and prepared for when he came back. You needed everything to be perfect. When he finally came home you were ready.
"Hello" you hear John yell while closing the door "I'm home!"
"Hello" you shout from the kitchen "in here!" John walked in as soon as you started putting the food on the plates.
"What's all this?" He asks looking at the candles and the nice home cooked meal.
"I just wanted to do something special for us" you said as you put the pan back on the stove and sat down. John sat down after you and you started to eat and made some small talk.
"John?" you say when you finally get up the nerve to tell him
"Yeah?"
"I have to tell you something"
"What is it?" He asked slightly worried
"This morning you remember how I was in the bathroom for a while?"
"Mhmm" he says nodding for you to go on
"Well when I was in there I took a pregnancy test and" you paused for a moment to see his reaction. You couldn't read the expression on his face so you decided to keep talking  "and it was positive. I'm pregnant..." You finished and looked at John. You noticed his eyes were wide but you weren't sure if that was a good thing. You gave him a small smile hoping that would make his reaction clearer. You were relieved when you saw him finally smile.
"That's great!" He says as he gets up to hug you
"Really?" You said unsure of his reaction
"Yeah! We're going to have a baby Lennon!" He said excitedly*. You smiled and hugged John. You were so relieved now that this was over.
"We need to prepare!" He said happily"we need a nursery, baby clothes, a crib, other baby stuff!"
"John we have 9 months." You said laughing "I think that stuff can wait"
"I know I'm just excited. I can't wait to be a father and I'm glad you're gonna be the mother" you smiled
"I'm glad you're gonna be the dad" you loved seeing the sweet side of John it's one of the main reasons you were with him. Behind the armor of wit he has is an amazing person who he only lets certain people see and only at certain times. You thought you were so lucky for this to be one of the times you saw him without his "armor" on.
