A Life With You - BTY VERSE

An Unexpected Joy (Part 1)

Imagine. You woke up and turn around to see your husband, but unfortunately, he's already gone. You sigh and bury your head in the pillow, yawning. You lie on your back and watch the clock. 10 am. God, that was a good sleep, you thought. You get up and put your hair in a bun. You slowly walk to the corridor as you rub your eyes. You look around you and your eyes stopped on the door of the second room.

The "For the next 'Our' to come" was still hanging on the door, and somehow it makes you sad. You and Darren decided to wait for Glee to be over to start thinking about starting a family, and you agreed but a part of you really did not want to wait. You did a little fake smile and look at the ground. You had to chase those thoughts. "It will come" you thought, "Just be patient".

You walk to the kitchen to make breakfast. You were about to open the fridge when you saw the post-it on it. "Hey you. Looking good today. See you tonight baby. Love you!" you read. He add a little smiley and sign with a little heart. You smile, "How cute" you say to yourself. You took the post it to put it with the others that Darren and you use to post for each other. When you got back to the fridge, you saw the calendar. It was always full of events, interviews, birthday you two had to go to. But for some reason, you did not care about all the words.You just looked at the number, shocked. "Oh God" you thought as you count the days.

Suddenly atonished, you quickly went to the bathroom to take a quick shower. No time for breakfast anymore. You get dressed, and without putting make up on, you take your purse and run out of the house, the door closing behind you. You took your car and drive to find the closest pharmacy. "I'm late" you say to yourself. "I'm never late" you kept saying. 3 days late. Now one day late, 3. You knew what this could mean. What would you do if you were pregnant? What would Darren think or say about that? Would he want to keep the baby or...No. You did not wanted to think about that. You park your car in front of the pharmacy. You went inside and bought a pregnancy test before going back home. All those questions kept running in your head.

As you walk to the bathroom, your eyes meet the paper on the nursery one more time. You bit your lip nervously and went on the bathroom. After using the test, you had to wait two minutes. You set the clock and wait. It felt like the longest time of your life, even longer than when you graduated or when you were waiting for your first job. Those minutes could change your life forever, and not only yours. Darren's too. The living room felt so empty and cold at that moment. The clock rang. For a moment, you hesitated to look the result. 'It could change everything. In a good or in a bad way' you thought. You take a deep breath and look at the pregnancy test.

Positive.
