Was It Destiny?

Destiny Will Find a Way

"Well what does it say?" Tyler asked over my shoulder

"It says that I am pregnant." I stated falling to my knees about to cry. How could I be so stupid? Me, pregnant? How, I know how, but it can't be. I feel the tears start to fall down my face; a few seconds later Tyler is also on the floor with me rocking me back and forth, trying to sooth me.

"Don't worry Buttercup we will get through this." He said rubbing small circles into my back

"How? How am I going to tell my mom?" I asked hiccupping "should we tell her right now?"

"From the experiences I've had with her, then yes remember when she caught us sleeping in the same bed together how crazy she went." He stated chuckling at the memory "if we wait longer then she is just going to get even madder."

"I guess." I stated getting up from the floor "but before we go and get me killed take me to a clinic."

"Whoa! We are keeping this baby!" he exclaimed "you're not getting an abortion."

"I know you idiot I want to go to a clinic to make sure, plus their tests only take 15 minutes and within that time I can sort things out in my head on how we are going to tell my parents." With no other response he gave me a quick 'oh' and left.

Thank god the clinic is empty, not that it matters, but it would save me a whole lot of trouble of the slightest possibility of word getting out. Sitting on top of the bed that was in the little room, I saw that Tyler was more nervous than I was. Why is he nervous? I am the one who is going to be holding the baby for 9 months and on top of that I am going to have to deal with my parents who are very 'old school' as you would say it. "You okay?" I asked

"Yeah I am just getting nervous waiting for the results." He stated

Before I could respond the doctor came back in with the results "so congratulations you're pregnant!" he exclaimed with a smile on his face "these papers are your results and in this one is the doctor I am sending you to; I will have Linda to set you up for an appointment with Doctor Kerensky. Any questions?" he asked

"No, thank you doctor." I stated hopping off the table with Tyler behind me we made our way to the car. Its official I am pregnant, worst part is I have absolutely no idea how this is all going to work out. Looking out the window, my mind starts to wonder and somehow someway I keep thinking of Tia. I feel like she would be disappointed in me for doing this, but part of me also feels like she knew this was going to happen. I fell into statistics and there is nothing I can do to change it, and if I said that I am not scared then I would be lying I am scared out of my mind. Scared of what I am going to do, scared of what my parents are going to do, scared of everything how can I take care of a baby financially? I have no problem with watching it and caring for it but the problem is that diapers, milk, baby wipes, clothes, all of that costs money. I love Tyler but is he ready to be a dad because love doesn't pay for anything a baby needs. "You ready?" Tyler asked as he turned off the car, sighing I gave him a quick nod.

Looking inside the house, I see everyone on the living room and by everyone I mean my grandparents, my parents, and my sisters. Feeling my heart start to race, I was about to run outside until Tyler caught me and turned me back around. Taking a deep breath I walk into the living room and all eyes are on me and Tyler

"Hey come sit down." My mom said patting the spot next to her

"Umm no I'm fine mom." I said in a shaky voice "girls can you go upstairs please."

"Why?" they all said in unison

"Because I have to talk to the grownups that is why!" I exclaimed frustrated with myself. Huffing they all got up and went upstairs, as they left the living room I walked more into the living room with Tyler's arm wrapped around my shoulder.

"Look Mija I am sorry for what I said earlier I didn't mean anything by it I was just worried my first grandchild was growing up too fast." My grandpa said to me, why is he making this harder for me? Does he know? Of course not because I just found out today! I was about to open my mouth but then whatever they were watching came back from commercial, I am more nervous than ever right now. How am I going to say it 'oh hey mom and dad I'm pregnant oh by the way what are we having for dinner?' I can't just blurt it out. I guess Tyler noticed my uneasiness because he soon started rubbing small circles into my hand. Biting my lip I start taking in deep breathes, hoping somehow I would magically disappear, opening my eyes I could see everyone's were on me. "What's wrong?" my mom asked

"I'll be back." I stated walking out into the kitchen with Tyler "I can't do it Tyler" I whispered

"Buttercup you have to we might as well get it over with now. Look I am going to be right here with you no matter what." He said giving me a kiss and a hug. "Now let's go and get ourselves killed."

"That is not helping!" I exclaimed only for him to start chuckling, walking back into the living room I felt all their eyes on me. "Mom, dad, grandma, grandpa," started off uneasy "mom can I ask you something?" giving me a nod to go ahead I continued "how did grandma and Tia react when you told them you were pregnant with me?"

"Not very good." She answered, so maybe when I tell her I'm pregnant she will go easy on me since she knows how it feels. Sighing once again I started "mom dad grandma grandpa" I said once again, why is it so hard to just say it? Just say it the quicker the better right? "I'm pregnant." I stated softly

"What we didn't hear you." my dad said

"I said I'm pregnant."
