Did You Just Say Pregnant?!

Chapter 10

-Olivia-

One month after the whole Elizabeth situation, Phil hadn’t dared coming to the house. I took the ben and jerry’s cookie dough tub out of the microwave (I only heat it for 10 seconds, honest!) and trotted over to the living room. I was such a mess these days, and each night of mine was spent drowning in my sorrows in ice cream.

I thought back to the night of passion that Jordan and I shared a month ago. I hadn’t seen or spoken to him since. It might have ruined our friendship, or maybe he just needed time to think. I know that I certainly needed time to think.

I trudged upstairs to sleep but made a quick stop to the bathroom. As I was brushing my teeth, I suddenly stopped. I counted the days in my head and then again using my fingers. I was 4 days late for my period. I tried not to get too excited but this meant only one thing.

Pregnant?!

I rushed over to the bathroom cabinet and got a pregnancy test out from the stock. I could hardly contain my excitement as I waited for the results. I looked at my watch, okay one minute left. I bit my lip smiling as I paced around the room.

I snuck another peek at the watch and I had 10 seconds left. In 10 seconds my life could change!

I knew the 10 seconds were over but it took me another minute to finally look at the test.

Negative.

From cloud nine I fell to rock bottom. I groaned and let the tears fall out as I got into my bed. I just sobbed and cried even more when I noticed the empty space next to me. I hugged the pillow and cried myself to sleep.

I awoke the next day feeling rough and deprived of sleep. The next couple of days flew by in a haze, with me moping around the house. It was now 9 days and I hadn’t started my period. I booked an appointment at the doctors. I was torn; I didn’t want to check because I know that there is a high possibility of me getting hurt. Again.

10 minutes later I was sitting on the bathroom ledge, too scared to look at the results. I knew it would be a negative again. I was so accustomed to them. I peeked and my heart stopped.

Positive.

I was pregnant! I yelled in joy as I looked down at the test.

The celebrations were cut off abruptly. Who is the father?

Phil or Jordan?
