*6 Months Later*

It had been 6 months since Mum found out that Nathan and I were in a relationship. It felt good to have everything out in the open. No more hiding or sneaking about. Everything between me and Nathan were going to plan. I never knew I could be this happy. Nathan was away in Spain this week but was coming home tonight. Mum wanted me to go but I ended up not feeling very well this week, I had a really bloated feeling in my stomach and I couldn't stop ebing sick. Its probably just a bug, nothing too serious. I was laid  at home on the sofa. I hadn't made much effort with what I was wearing, I had on my blue t-shirt that had 'I Like You' in white font on the front. It was loose around my stomach. On my bottom half I was wearing, my bleached denim leggings. My hair was a mess so I just put my grey hat on. 

My phone vibrated on the arm of the sofa. I moved my arm to reach for it. I brought it so I could see who was trying to contact me. It was Holly. I opened up the text and it said,

From Holly,

                 Hey sickbug, i'm off work so thought I would pop round to see my poorly best mate. I'll be round in about half an hour xxx.

I smiled at the text and replied back saying,

To Holly,

             Awh your so sweet. I'll unlock the door so you can just walk in. Can't wait to see you:)xxx'


Holly didn't reply back so I went to unlock the door like I said I would. I soon returned to the sofa. It wasn't long before I heard the front door opening.
'It's only me,' Holly chirped.
'I'm in here,' I croaked. She soon appeared through the door.
'Awh you look awful,' she said as she pulled a sad face.
'I feel like crap,' I pouted.
'Well, i'm here to look after you,' she smiled.
'Thank you Hols,'.

She put her bag down and went to make us both a cup of tea. She soon came back.
'You want anything else?' she asked. I shook my head,
'I'm fine thank you,'. She sat down at the end of my feet. 
'Do you still have that bloated feeling?' she questioned.
'Yeah, it's so uncomfortable. Have a feel,' I said to her. She put her hand on my stomach.
'That's really bad Ivy...maybe you should go and see a doctor?' she suggested in a concerned tone.
'It's just a bug..what else could it be?' I answered. A worried expression appeared on her face. 
'I've heard about these symptoms before,' she started to say.
'Really?' I asked.
'Yeah...its what pregnant women get,' she finished speaking. My eyes widened.
'You think I'm pregnant?' I replied in a shocked tone.
'Well..they're the symptoms but you might not be,' she answered to my question.
'Nath's not gonna want me if I am,' I cried.
'Of course he will...if he loves you like I know he does..then he'll be there for you,' she comforted me.
'Mums gonna kill me,'
'Let's get you a test and then we will know,' she suggested.  I just nodded my head. Holly offered to go and get it for me.

I just stayed where I was, trying to process the fact that I could be carrying a baby. I have been taking my pill so I don't even know why it would of happened. What am I going to say to Nath. As all this was going through my head, Holly walked back through the door. 
'There you go, i'll be down here OK,' she soothed. I nodded and went upstairs to the bathroom. I got to the bathroom and done the pregnancy test. I had to wait five minutes for the results to show. I went back downstairs to Holly, whilst I waited. I didn't say a word whilst I waited. The five minutes were up and I turned the test over and saw a pius sign...it was positive..I was pregnant.
'What's it say?' Holly questioned.

'I'm pregnant,' I replied in a shakily tone. Holly didn't say anything in reply, instead she hugged me.
'It's going to be OK...everything will be,' she soothed.
'How am I going to tell Nathan?' I cried.
'You just have to tell him straight...just don't hide it from him,'
'I won't,' Holly stayed with me for most of the day. But soon left me.

A little while later, there was a knock at the door. I wondered who it could be as I got up from the sofa to make my way over to the door to answer it. I got to the dooe and opened it. To find Nathan stood there holding a bunch of flowers.
'Hey beautiful,' he smiled.
'Hey..come in,' I croaked. He walked in and handed the flowers to me.
'For my poorly Princess,' he kissed me on the cheek.
'Thank you, they're gorgeous,' I smiled. I put the flowers in a vase before going back to Nathan, who was sat in the living room. I had to tell him.
'How are you feeling baby?' he asked as I sat down.
'Not the best...but,' I paused.
'But what?'
'I found something out today,' I began to say.
'Whats that then?' he replied as he took a sip from him beer

'I'm pregnant,'
