Eric and I have been dating 5 years now and he's expressed interest to me lately that he's not ready to be a dad. Well I'm kind of in a pickle you see, because I found out a couple of days ago that I'm pregnant with his child.
I'm beyond scared to tell him because of that reason and I'm terrified if he finds out right now. I sighed to myself as I sat in the bathroom after my usual morning sickness just thinking about how I'm going to tell him.
"Camille, you okay in there?" Eric asked through the door. "Yeah babe, I'm all good. Just not feeling well." I said getting up and brushing my teeth. "Alright babe, you've been in there awhile, I'm going to the park now, I'll see you there?" He asked. "Yeah babe, I love you!" I said back to him.
"I love you too." He says and walks away. I sighed and got into the shower and got ready for the game tonight.
I put on some shorts, my Hosmer jersey and some vans. I grabbed all my stuff and headed over to the stadium and went right into the clubhouse where some of the other wives and girlfriends were hanging out.
"What's got you all down?" Stephanie asks noticing I'm not my usual happy self. "Well I have some news that I know Eric isn't going to like and I don't know how to break it to him." I say looking around to see if there is anyone that would blab to him in here. "Well what is it?" She asked.
"I'm pregnant and Eric doesn't want to be a dad." I said putting my head in his hands and Stephanie started rubbing my back. "It's going to be okay, he'll come around." She said. "I really hope so." I said sighing and sitting up and they changed the subject when the guys came in.
I faked a smile at Eric and he bought it coming over and doing our daily good luck kiss before we all went up to the suite and watching the game. The game went by quick and we won 1-0 and I looked down on the field to see Eric looking up at the suite with a pissed off look on his face.
"Oh no, Stephanie he knows." I said tapping her shoulder to get her attention. She looked at the field and at him and her eyes went wide. "Oh shit, yeah he does. He's fuming." She said and I sighed, this could not get any worse.
We all grabbed our stuff and walked down to the clubhouse. I was the last one in, not ready to face my hot headed boyfriend. I felt someone grab my arm and drag me out of the clubhouse really roughly and I looked up and saw it was Eric dragging me into the hall and into the dugout.
"When in the hell were you going to tell me you were pregnant?" He said basically screaming at me and I flinched backwards. "When you told me you were ready to be a dad?" I said more as a question and that made him even more mad.
I was scared he was going to hit me, but that isn't like him, but it always crosses my mind. "Camille, you know I'm not ready for this! I'm out." He said walking away from me. "I'm not staying at home." He said before disappearing into the tunnel and I just stood there and cried my eyes out.
---------------------------
It's been two weeks since I heard from Eric and two weeks since I've seen his face. I've started to grow a little baby bump and I'm around 3 months pregnant and the baby is doing well. If Eric doesn't want to be in the baby's life, then I'm raising it on my own.
I've always wanted a kid and Eric wasn't stopping me. I was cooking myself some breakfast when I heard the front door open and keys drop into the bowl and my breath hitched in my throat. I knew it was Eric and I wasn't all shocked that he came home, okay maybe I was.
I just continued on with my cooking and I knew he was staring at me. "Hi." He said and I turned to him and smiled. "Hi." I said back putting my food on my plate and turning around so he could see the bump and I knew that's where his eyes were fixated.
"I'm sorry I haven't been around these past two weeks." He said not looking at me. "It's fine really." I said taking a bite of my food. "I'm sorry the way that I reacted. I'm sure it would've been better if you had told me yourself but I had to hear it from Moose." He said and I shrugged.
"You told me you weren't ready to be a dad, I was going to do this on my own." I said. "I don't want you to do that." He said coming over to me and taking my hands in his. I looked up at him and he had the red puffy eyes which told me that he had been crying.
I sighed and hugged him. "You sure you're ready?" I asked looking up at him. "If you're by my side, I'm ready for anything babe." He said with a smile and I kissed him. "I'm three months already." I said rubbing my stomach and he smiled and his hands replaced my own.
"Hi little one. I'm your daddy, I can't wait to meet you and grow with you. I'm new to this and so is your mom, but we're going to take real good care of you. We love you." He said gently kissing my stomach and then coming up and kissing my lips.
"I love you Camille." He said. "I love you too Eric."
