- Aussie-American Family: Part 3 -

I wanted to warn you that if you've ever experienced or been affected by miscarriage, that it's included in this chapter. 

I felt a glimmer of hope, I was late.

I hadn't had my period for an entire month and a half, and I wanted to tell Ethan. After Ryder had finally fallen asleep, I waited for Ethan on our bed.

He groggily shuffled in and collapsed onto the bed. I chuckled and rubbed my hand up and down his back, and he sighed sleepily.

"Eth, I gotta tell ya something" He lifted his head in confusion and looked at me as he got up and sat up to face me.

"Sure Y/N/N, go ahead" He tilted his head, waiting for my news.

"My period... is two months late, I don't want to get too excited but could you get me some tests tomorrow?" I brought my lips in between my teeth and bit them.

Ethan raised his eyebrows and grabbed my hands. A smile started to form on both our faces and I laughed.

"Are you serious?! Baby of course I will" Ethan finally spoke.

"We can't be too eager though" I pulled both corners of my mouth back and Ethan looked down.

"We can always hope" He smiled, which only made me want to find out even more.

*Next day* ~ Ethan's POV ~

I looked as fast as I could over every shelf in the aisle the pregnancy tests were in. Y/N had told me where to find them, and I fumbled with a few boxes in my hand, looking for the brand Y/N had told me to get. I finally found the right one and grabbed 4 boxes, I wanted to be sure.

I went to the self-serve checkout and got home as quick as I could. It was a Sunday, so neither Y/N or I had work, and Ryder was at home too. 

"Hi daddy!" Ryder yelled from the lounge room as I walked in the door.

"Hey Ry" I stuffed two boxes in my right pocket, then put the other two in the other, so I could walk into the lounge room and ruffle Ryder's dark brown hair. He was sitting on the floor playing with his toys and the tv was playing cartoons.

He giggled and continued playing as I walked into Y/N and I's bedroom to give her the tests. I sat on the bed as she walked into our ensuite to take the test. I heard the toilet flush and the door handle jiggled. I instantly stood up as the door opened, and I searched Y/N's face.

She had a neutral look on her face and showed me the test, there was one clear line and a very faint second line.

"These aren't always accurate the first time Y/N/N, we'll try again later." She looked disappointed, but hid it behind a smile.

*Hours later* ~ Your POV ~

Ethan was waiting patiently as I took the second test. I brought it closer to my face as I flushed the toilet, and I nearly dropped it.

I audibly gasped and Ethan rushed in, grabbing my hand to look at it. The second line was much clearer than last time and Ethan hugged me so tight that I couldn't breathe.

"We did it baby" Ethan kissed me. 

Tears pricked the corners of my eyes as I held Ethan's face, kissing him back. I let go of him and beamed as I walked over to the sink to wash my hands. I small frown formed on my face and I turned around while I dried my hands.

"We can't tell Ryder yet. He'll get way too excited, we need to get an official scan first, and i'll do another test tomorrow." I dried my hands and leant on the vanity. 

"Of course" Ethan smiled as he softly leant on me and rested his forehead on mine.

*10 weeks later*

Last night I had really bad pain in my lower stomach, but I didn't want to tell Ethan because I know it would scare him. I kept tossing and turning during the night until I decided to get up at 3am. I went to the bathroom and as soon as I sat on the toilet, I saw it. I had been bleeding.

My eyes widened and my stomach dropped. I slowly walked out of the bathroom and woke Ethan up.

He squinted as the light hit his eyes and rolled over to face me.

"Um, Eth? I've been bleeding" Saying it made me shudder and I took a shaky breath.

"Shit. We'll uh, we should get a scan done" He wearily wiped his eyes and held my hands.

"Thanks Eth. I love you" I kissed him softly and walked to my side of the bed to change.

"Love you too Y/N/N, don't panic yet" He layed back down and cuddled the blanket around him. He really was the best.

*Morning*

In the morning, we got Ethan's dad to come take care of Ryder while we went to the hospital. We got into the scan room and Ethan stood right beside me, holding my hand. The doctor put the gel on my stomach and searched for a heartbeat with the probe. Ethan and I stared at the screen, anxiously waiting to see a heartbeat. Ethan had my hand in both of his and squeezed it tight, as time dragged on and on, with nothing showing up.

The doctor frowned and took the ultrasound probe off my stomach, and cleaned the gel.

"I'm so sorry. You've had a miscarriage. I'll leave you with your husband until you're ready to come out. I'm sorry again" I wasn't listening to her anymore as soon as she said the word 'miscarriage'.

I looked down. I turned to face Ethan, and he instantly embraced me. I felt my heart tear itself apart and I could hear Ethan's breaking. We sobbed into each other's shoulders until there were no tears.

~~~

I got really attached to this family, but this was a really sad ending so if you want another part, let me know. 

I love you all and stay cranky :)
