Our Mistake (Laurmani)(COMPLETED)

Stay Positive

Lauren's P.O.V

About maybe 30 minutes after I called Ashley, she's coming in my office. Something doesn't seem right with her. Ashley always has a smile on her face. Always. But today it's just not there. It's the serious look that causes this sinking feeling in my stomach. She walks toward me and says.

"Hey." She waves meekly and then sits in a chair on the other side of my desk.

"Hey. So what's up?" I say and she sighs.

"Okay...so don't freak out but...I'm late."

"What?"

"I missed my period." She says and I shake my head.

"I got that part. um...how long ago did we have sex? Two months?" I say and she nods.

"Something like that."

"And you missed this months?" I ask and she nods.

"Look, don't panic or anything. I haven't taken a test yet so I'm not sure yet."

"When are you going to take one? Or see a doctor or something?" I ask.

"I just got a test today." She says with a shrug.

"There's a bathroom." I say and nod to a room in the back corner of my office. She gets up and goes inside and I watch her. Shit. Normani will flip her shit if I got Ashley pregnant. I seriously don't want this to fuck up what I have with Mani. If she's pregnant, I'll do what I have to as a parent. I just...How the hell could this even happen? I sigh to myself and Ashley comes back.

"Aren't you on birth control?" I ask as she walks toward me

"Yeah." She says as she sits back down.

"And we used condoms so...how?" I ask as I lean back in my chair.

"Lauren, didn't I say don't panic? My period has never been regular so this might be nothing." She says calmly and I nod.

"Okay...but if it is something, what do you want to do?"

"I'm keeping it. I don't want to mess you and Normani up or anything so you don't have -"

"Are you about to say I don't have to be in it's life?"

"Not...necessarily. More like you don't have to go to doctors appointments or a baby shower or anything."

"If you're pregnant, those are things I want to do. I don't know how Mani would like me getting you pregnant but hopefully, she wouldn't do anything too drastic." I say and she shrugs.

"You never know, but we just need to be calm about this." I nod. This could be nothing. Nothing at all.

"How are you and Normani?" Ashley asks.

"Good. She might be pregnant but she doesn't think so."

"Really?" She asks and I nod.

"She's been trying to act like work has been stressing her out, but it hasn't. She's been tired and I'm pretty sure her period hasn't come yet."

"And that makes you think she's pregnant." I shrug and fold my hands over my stomach. It'll feel so good to not have this stupid ass cast when I get it taken of tomorrow.

"That's what happened to Allyson when she was preggers. I didn't no the period thing but she was tired then the morning sickness came."

"How long have you guys been back together?"

"Like a month but we got together at the beginning of the month. She said she'd already had her period for the month before. She still hasn't had a period yet and this month is pretty much over."
