Living A Nightmare {Casualty}

2 | Chapter Two

Kennedy drove home after going to the chemist, she had to take some paracetamol since she's feeling ill but little did she know she wasn't just feeling sick their was something much more surprising coming her way and she was going to find out sooner than she thought.

Kennedys pov

Once I got home I got myself a glass of water so I could take some tablets, I wanted to quit feeling sick but I can't just stop feeling like this. After taking some paracetamol I took the pregnancy tests I had brought in my way home and went into my bathroom locking the door as I do so; even though none has a key to my flat other than me, Cal did before he died. I did what I had to do and left the test for five minutes like the box had told me to do.

"What am I going to do if it's positive" I ask myself our loud probably sounding like a right weirdo if anyone was to hear me. I closed my eyes for a second after my alarm went of signalling they five minutes was up. I picked one of the tests up and my eyes widened and my jaw dropped one word popped onto the test

'Positive' the test read and I had to check the second test just to be safe, once again they said the exact same. It was safe to say I was pregnant. I didn't expect this not one little bit but I guess I kinda guessed after still feeling sick days after my birthday. How could I have not figured out I was pregnant I mean I hadn't had my period last month and I've not had it this month, gosh how stupid could I be. I knew I had to tell someone about this and they who I guess could be my brother. Iain should be on his lunch break so I decided to take a quick chance and phone him.

"Please pick up" I mumbled under my breath waiting for my older brother to pick up the phone.

"Kens what's up?" My older brother asked me once he picked the phone up.

"Can you come round after work, I would prefer to talk face to face?" I asked Iain hopefully

"I'll be round at 8, are you alright Kennedy, you sound like your not very well?" He asked as if he already knew what was going on but obviously not since last time I checked he wasn't a mind reader

"I'll see you later big bro, we will talk then" I spoke to my brother before I hung up. I decided I had to make an appointment to either find out how long I am along or to see what options there are for me but I guess I should wait for that, Digest the news before I make any decisions.

I decided to do some of my essays for my training just because I've been so busy over the last few weeks so I get my laptop out all the written parts I have started and began to get to work hoping to get either one or two completed before Iain shows up.

Hours later it was ten to eight which meant their is ten minutes until my brother should be here, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath waiting for a knock at the door of my flat and before I knew it their was and I was answering it

"Evening Iain" I smiled as I invited my brother in giving him a hug

"Evening Kennedy, you alright?" He asked me hugging me back and I knew he could tell something was up.

"I might as well come out and say this" I paused taking a deep breath again and slightly looking down

"I'm pregnant, I don't know how long but I do know it's obviously Cals" I spoke with tears threatening to spill and I didn't want that, I had to hold the tears back.

"Oh Kennedy, that's fantastic news. I'll help you whenever you need" my brother try's to reassure me but I shook my head

"I don't know if I can do it Iain, I don't know if I'm ready for a child. Im training to be a doctor and I'm already behind in my essays a baby might set me back even further" I sighed throwing my hands in the air in frustration

"Go and sit down Kens, I'll make us a drink and we can talk about it" my brother smiled his warm smile. I knew I couldn't argue with him, I never could so into the living room I went and I sat down on the sofa leaning against the arm.

"One coffee no sugar for the sweet enough sister" Iain jokes and I have to admit it did make me smile and laugh a little

"Theirs the smile I missed" he smiled too as he sat down at the opposite end of the sofa.

"Thank you lovely" I smiled half heartedly over to my brother. We sit talking about random things basically a catch up and I knew the subject of the pregnancy was going to come up sooner or later, I was just hoping for it to be later so I can think about it first.

"What do you want to do about the baby, I mean I know you said you don't seem like your ready but you're always going to be my sister and I'll stick by you no matter what you decide to do" Iain reassured me.

"I've always wanted a baby, I really have but I've got so much to do and Cal, he won't be around to meet his son or daughter" I sighed letting a tear roll down my cheek

"Come here Kens" my brother smiled pulling me into a sideways hug comforting me

"I just want to find out my options and go from their" I responded with a fake smile knowing that I will never get my head around having Cals baby when he's not here, it just doesn't seem right. Our baby will be growing up without knowing it's dad but at least I can tell him or her that her dad was amazing, he was someone who would have loved his child.

"You know your always going to have me here. You and Baby will perfectly fine no matter what" my older brother smiled wrapping his arms around me

"I love you Iain, I couldn't have a better big brother" I smiled sweetly with my brothers arms around me, he made me feel happy and I know I'll always have my brother by my side through the whole thing.
