Unexpected

Chapter 2

Chapter 2.

I had drove Luke and I home to mine and literally ran to the bathroom to pee on the stick that would change our lives forever.  I sat down on the toilet on took the test out. Luckily nobody was home only Luke and I, so it's not like anybody else would no.

I peed on the stick and put in on the basin while I washed my hands. I looked in the mirror and took my hair out of its ponytail and put it back up into a messy bun. I then washed my face with warm water thinking that would help. I jumped when I heard knocking at the door.

"Babe you okay?" Luke said sounding worried

"Yeah I'm fine just waiting to see if..." I looked down at the test. All I saw was a plus sign. Meaning it's positive. Oh no.

"You're waiting to see if?" Luke said echoing me.

I picked up the test and took a deep breath before opening the door. I opened the door and Luke looked up from ground and looked at me waiting for an answer.

"Luke I'm pregnant" I said looking down at the test. He stood next to me and looked down at the test as well.

"Shit. I can't believe I'm going to be a father." He said smiling. I couldn't help but smile either, the thought of being a mother makes me so happy, I've loved children ever since I could remember and I had the practice of looking after Cody.

"Me either." I said and broke down into tears. I couldn't help but feel afraid, what if I lost the baby or what if I'm a bad mother. Luke pulled me into a tight hug and kissed my forehead.

"It's going to be okay you'll be a great mother." Luke said while kissing my forehead again.

"You really think so?" I said looking up into my eyes. He smiled and placed his lips on mine and then pulled away.

"I know so."

It had been an hour since I found out I was pregnant. I grabbed my laptop and searched 'pregnancy clinics' I pressed search and my screen instantly lit up with results. Saying that there were clinics in my local area I decided to click on the first one I saw and rang the number.

After being on the phone for close to half an hour I booked an appointment. I didn't even have to ask myself if I was going to give it away or have it 'taken care of' even though I'm young I want this baby. I'm in love with Luke and I want a future with him, why not have a baby with the man of my dreams I mean I'm it's not like I'm 14 and can't make my own decisions, I'm 18 and am graduating next month not to mention I have a part time job and a car, I also have trust funds and a savings account with enough money to keep me comfortable for at least 10 years. It's not like I wasn't ready for a baby.

"BABE DO YOU WANT LUNCH?" Luke yelled from the kitchen downstairs.

"YES PLEASE I'LL COME DOWN" I yelled back. I got off my bed and walked down the stairs to see Luke slaving away in the kitchen, making us lunch.

"Whatcha cooking good looking'" I winked at him and he laughed.

"Spaghetti, nothing to flash." Luke was an amazing cook, he got into a chef school last year but declined because he wants to graduate. He wants to be a chef and I have to admit if I could cook that well I'd be a chef in a heartbeat.

"I'm sure it'll be amazing." I said while walking up to him to give him a hug.

"So you booked an appointment" He said before returning back to the pot of pasta

"Yeah Thursday at 4:00 I made it so it's after school" I said while hoping up onto our island bench

"I'm allowed to come right." He looked at me raising his eyebrows

"No sorry." I said rolling my eyes and filling my voice with sarcasm. He walked up to me and gave me a kiss.

"Sarcasm?" He said jokingly

"Defiantly" I said before pulling his face towards mine and placing my lips on his. He kissed me back instantly and deepened the kiss. Man he knew how to kiss. He pulled away and looked into my eyes and smiled. And then he did something that I wasn't expecting at all. He touched my stomach and rubbed it. He looked up at me and smiled. And it wasn't his normal smile it was his 'I'm so happy I can't explain it' smile. I had grown to love it because I knew only I could make him smile like this and I was the one carrying his child.

"Do you want a boy or girl?" I asked him while smiling uncontrollably

"Any I don't mind as long as he or she is healthy" He said while looking at my stomach and smiling

"But..." He said laughing

"I would love a little girl you know so I could beat up guys that hurt her." He said why smiling

"And she could be my little princess and..." I cut him off

"And you could be her hero." I smiled at how cute he was.

"Exactly" He said smiling like the happiest person in the world. He walked up to me and looked deep into my eyes. We were standing so close I could feel his warm breath hit my face.

"I love you Heather." He said with a half-smile

"I love you too Luke." I grabbed his hand and held it lightly. He kissed me on the cheek and went back to pasta. Luckily it hadn't over cooked. At the moment I was the happiest I had been in a long time, I had a perfect boyfriend and a child that we so dearly wanted. I looked at him slaving away in the kitchen and couldn't help but smile at the thought of how amazing he is.

I watched him walk around the kitchen grabbing bowls, spoons and god knows what. He handed me a bowl and it smelt delicious. I looked down to see my favourite food, spaghetti bolognaise without the meat, I had been a vegetarian for about for 4 years now and Luke being the great boyfriend he is, always cooked me meat-free meals.  I twirled my fork around the spaghetti and put more than enough pasta in my mouth, I groaned because it tasted so good. After swallowing my mouthful I looked up at him to see him looking at me intently and I smiled.

"Yum like always" I said while leaning in to give him a thankful kiss.

"You're yum" He said while winking at me

 "No you are" I said while poking out my tongue at him. We both started laughing.

"Seriously though you are the best cook." I said tilting my head to the side and smiling.

"I know you've said that before." He said grinning at me.

"Show off" I said before poking my out tongue at him

"You love it" He said before winking

I put both my hands up "okay you have a point"

"So are you going to tell your mum?" He said while smiling at me, concern filling his eyes.

How was I going to tell my mother, the 'virgin till marriage' kind of woman. She didn't even know I was sexually active and now I'm pregnant. I can already hear her yelling at me about how I went against the lord, and that I will be judged for my sins. Yet my father is the kind of 'you feel it when you feel it' kind of person. My mother and father are complete ying and yang's and after he left for a short period, well at the time I didn't think he was coming back. But he did. My mother was already ruined though and had turned to the church to mend her broken heart, she doesn't miss church now. I guess that's her choice, even though she goes a little over board.

"I'll probably tell dad first he's more..."

"Chill." Luke said while laughing

"Yeah that's one word for it" I said and joined in with his laughing

"What about you?" I raised my eyebrows at Luke

"My mum will probably cry and say something like 'I'm going to be a grandmother'" He said putting on a high pitch voice, its scary how much he sounded like his mother. I had to admit I am really close with Leanne, closer than I am with my own mother in fact. I guess ever since Luke and I started dating I became used to her hugs and the way she made me feel at home. She was a great mother, one I hoped to be like.

"I can only imagine" I said while smiling at the thought of how happy she would be. Unlike my mother who will probably look at me like I've murdered her best friend when I tell her.
