It Has To Get Done

Saturday came fast, Robert has been ignoring Anna since Wednesday and Anna decided that was best for now. She will try making him talk to her again after she breaks things off with Nathan.

She was getting ready to go to Nathan's for a day by the pool. She was packing a small bag with her bathing suit, sunglasses and sunscreen when she suddenly remembered something.

"Oh fuck, no...." She whispered. She checked the time, seeing she had a good hour before having to be at Nathan's. "I can't be thinking about this all day." She mutters as she grabs her keys and drives to the nearest store quickly.

She came back home within five minutes and rushed to the bathroom, peeing on the infamous stick. The next ten minutes were complete torture as she had to wait for the results. Her timer buzzed and she almost ran into the door to look at the result. She swiftly picked it up and read it.

Positive.

Anna gasped, putting her free hand to her mouth. "Oh. My. Fucking. God...." She said slowly in shock.

Anna arrived at Nathan's house, lost in her thoughts the whole way there. Nathan opened the door for her, his hair already wet from already being in the pool. "Hey, baby." He says cheerfully, kissing her cheek. 

"Hey..." Anna says distantly. Nathan furrowed his brows but shrugged it off. 

"If you would like to change you know where the bathroom is, and if you are hungry I have some burgers on the grill..." 

"Thank you." She says walking towards his bathroom to change. When she takes her shirt off, she takes a moment to study her stomach in the mirror, she noticed it was only slightly bigger, but not really noticeable at all. It looked more like she ate a big pasta meal a half hour ago and it hasn't quite digested yet.

She walks out in the yard, seeing Nathan in front of the grill, flipping burgers without a shirt on. He turns around when he hears the sliding glass door and smiles at his girlfriend in a peach colored bikini. He whistles suggestively before saying, "Hello, gorgeous." Before turning back to the grill. "Burgers are almost done if you wanna sit." 

Anna puts her towel over the back of a lounge chair and sits at a different chair at Nathan's outdoor table with a fake fire pit in the middle of it. Nathan comes over, serving her a cheeseburger on a plate, and sitting down across from her with his own. "Bon Apetit!" Nathan exclaims, twirling his imaginary French-style mustache. Anna couldn't help but forget about the pregnancy to laugh at his gesture. "There she is! Where has my cheery girlfriend been hiding?" Nathan says, commenting about her mood before that moment.

"I'll tell you later, for now let's enjoy our day by the pool." Anna says, not wanting to ruin his whole day.

"Okay, promise me to wear that smile then..."

"Promise." Anna smiles and bites into her burger.

"Come onnnnn! It's not even cold!!!!" Nathan whines, trying to get Anna in the pool with him. The sun was starting to go down and it was getting chillier by the minute.

"I don't believe you! It's cold just standing up here!" Anna says, rubbing her arms trying to warm up.

"Anna, my pool is heated, you will be warmer in here, and if not then I will warm you up!" Nathan persuades. 

"Alright, but you better not be lying to me!" Anna gives in, pointing at Nathan before finally jumping in near where Nathan was, splashing water all over him. "Oh my god!!!!" She yells as she resurfaces.
