Flip a Coin //Malum Mpreg

5

I sat hunched over the toilet for the fourth time that day. i felt like absolute shit. We went to the doctors to see what was going on and just as expected, it's a small flu. Ill get over it in like a week. It doesn't feel like it as I empty my stomach into the toilet though. Calum was off at work and I had to fend for myself throughout the day.

I made my way to the sink, brushing my teeth before my stomach told me exactly what I knew it was going to. I stalked over to the kitchen and found no food. I bit my lip and cried on the couch for about an hour before there was a knock at the door. I opened the door which revealed my doctor on the other end.

We had met at a bar a couple years ago and immediately bonded.

"Jamie!" I hugged the boy, "please say you brought food. I'm dying over here."

"Actually I came with news. Is Calum here?"

I shake my head and beckon him into the apartment. We sit down on the couch and he explains some things to me.

"Basically Michael... there's no other way to say it than... we think you might be pregnant. I'm here cause they thought it would be best to tell you of the possibility of it before doing the test,"

"I mean it makes sense. Like look at my tummy it's huge!"

"it looks the exact same, Michael."

I pout, "Are you calling me fat?"

"No. I'm just saying you shouldn't have gained that much weight. It's only been, what-"

"A month."

"How do you know?" Jamie furrows his eyebrows, scooting closer to me.

"Oh honey I don't bottom..." He tilts his head, "Calum and I flipped a coin cause he wanted to top and he got his way like always." I roll my eyes.

"Oh don't act like you don't spoil him."

"I only spoil him cause if I don't he'll throw a fit!" I raise my voice. It's like every bad thought I've ever thought about Cal is coming back and hitting me ten times harder than before. I had the urge to just scream at Jamie but he's my friend so I pull myself together and mumble, "I'm gonna get something to eat."

"how much do you eat on a daily basis?"

"Probably more than the average elephant eats in a week." I scoff looking in the nearly emptied fridge.

"That's normal. I mean obviously not the elephant part but cravings linger throughout."

"Do you wanna stop being my doctor and be my friend? It's pissing me off. I get it. I'm pregnant, I'm gonna be moody, I'm going to eat more, I'm gonna throw my guts up every mornign, afternoon and night. Can someone get this boy a cheeseburger!" My voice gets louder with each word I spit, but then all I felt was sad, "I just food and Calum. Where's Calum?"

Right as i said that, the door opens and the love of my life walks inside. I run over to Calum grab the bag of Taco Bell out of his hand and kiss it multiple times, "Thank you Cal! Thank you thank you thank you." I pull out a burrito and begin eating it messily.

"Hey babe." He giggles then his eyes land on Jamie, "Dr. Reinhart, what are you doing here?"

"Well I think Michael might wanna tell you something."

I look back and forth between the two of them a large wad of food in my mouth. I swallow and my eyes finally land on my boyfriend. I stand up and take his hands in mine, "You know how you always wanted a baby?" He nods, a small smile forming. "Well, we might be having one."

He squeals jumping on me and wrapping his arms around his neck and his legs around my waist. I grab his bum to keep him from falling and smile brightly when he kisses me sloppily. Jamie clears his throat and Cal pulls away quickly, blushing and burying his face in my chest.

"If you guys don't mind, I think we should go do the check up. Make sure that baby is okay... y'know if there is one. We have to do the test. See if there's a little bean in there."

"Yea let me get dressed." I let go of Calum, quickly ate the rest of my food and ran into my room throwing on a t-shirt and a pair of skinny jeans. When I came back out, Cal and Jamie were chatting and didn't notice me sneak into the kitchen and grab a fun sized Snickers bar before I made my presence known, "Will you give us a ride Jamie? We don't have a car."

"Yea but that needs to change soon." We all make our way out to his car.

"Why?"

"Just in case you need to get to the hospital. Yes you can call an ambulance but you never know the circumstances you'll be in."

I look at Cal who shrugs, "We don't really have the money."

"Well I see how that's a problem. Mikey you don't work?"

"I got laid off..." I look down, "I really liked that job too."

The rest of the car ride was silent and now Cal and I are waiting while for the test. Calum crawls over the seat, so that he's straddling my waist and he nuzzles his head into my neck.

"So Ash and I went shopping today."

"Not a surprise really." I chuckle placing my hands on his hips, rubbing small circles into the sliver of skin from where his shirt has ridden up.

"Guess what I got?"

"Clothes?"

"Twat," he mumbles, "We went in Victoria's Secret, got a lot of dirty looks, but I got a pair."

"Really baby? That's great." I smile and he nods kissing my neck, "Did you do that cause I asked or cause it makes you happy?"

"Both... You're really helping me be more confident in wearing what I want to."

"That makes me so happy that you're doing what makes you happy."

A small lady walks in a smile on her face. She sets the test on the counter before exiting the room. Calum scrambled off of me stumbling over to the test. A smile broke out on his face, "Mikey...we're having a baby."
