35: Does He Know

As soon as I arrived in the states I called the guys. Calum was the one who answered. He had told me Luke had been crying ever since I had left. Which is weird because he was the most collective when I left.

But that was 2 weeks ago. It's been exactly a month since I conceived a child and ruined my life. I've been so busy two days into leaving the guys I broke my Skype every night promise. I had do register for collage classes, schedule doctor appointments, and find a job, which I did find.

I've been working at a Barns 'N' Nobles down the street from my collage. It paid ten dollars an hour four days a week which were the only four days I didn't have classes. But work is easy and classes don't start for another week, so I'm not to stressed. Yet.

As for going to see a doctor for the pregnancy, I'm currently on my way there.

And if you're wondering, I still haven't told Luke. I know, I know I'm a horrible person, but the guys are on there own little mini tour right now. 5 countries in five days, so how can I just throw that at him? Then even after that they are king to tour in Europe, the US, and Australia, for their own headline tour. So I don't think I'll be telling him any time soon.

I pulled into the parking lot of the prenatal care facility of the hospital. This should be fun.

I walked up to the reception desk and an elderly lady smiled at me.

"Emma Waters," I said.

"Yes, right here. You have a two thirty appointment," she smiled at me.

"Fill this out, and bring it back when you ready, Dr. Marten will be ready for you shortly," she jaded me a clip board and pen.

I walked and took a seat to fill out these papers. I looked around and saw nothing but married couples. Some women looked like they were about to pop and others were like me and hardly even had a bump. But one thing I did notice. None of them were eighteen. I sighed and started answering the questions.

Once I finished I went back up and handed the receptionist the information. Now I just wait.

I'd been sitting there ten minutes listening to husbands coo their wife's and discuss baby names. What was I even going to name it?

"Waters," a nurse called out.

I looked up and realized she called me. I got up and walked through the door. I could feel everyone's gaze on me. I even heard someone whisper.

"She's so young."

"Okay, so Emma how long have you known about your pregnancy," Dr. Marten asked.

Dr. Marten was a middle aged women who was very friendly. She made sure to make her patients comfortable.

"About three weeks now," I answered.

"Okay. We are just going to do an ultrasound, make sure everything is going as expected," she smiled.

She instructed me to lay down, and she began smearing this gel on my abdomen. I was nervous. It had all really just hit me. I was really going to be a mom.

"So where's the daddy," she asked making conversation as she moved the ultrasound equipment around my stomach.

"Um, he's in Europe currently. He actually has no idea about this," I said referring to the pregnancy.

"One night stand gone wrong," she chuckled.

I laughed.

"No. He's my boyfriend, he's in this band, and I guess condoms jut aren't all that protective," I stated.

"Ahh, so rock star boyfriend," she smiled.

"Australian rock star boyfriend," I joked.

She laughed. Then there was this sudden thumping.

"That's the baby's heart beat," she smiled.

Wow. Proof I actually have someone growing inside me.

"Wow," I whispered.

"Yeah. When you actually see that you have a little person inside you it's breath taking," she smiled," We'll it seems everything is developing properly."

I smiled.

After the appointment I went home.

"Mom, I'm home," I yelled through the house.

She came running out from the kitchen.

"How was it," she asked.

"Weird, but amazing," I stated.

"Yeah, that's about right," she laughed," boy or girl."

"I didn't want to find out until a) I finally have the guts to tell Luke and he can be there with me, or b) until I have the baby," I said.

She sighed.

"Emma, your going to have to tell him sooner or later that our pregnant."

"I know, it's just His career is just blooming. I can't just ruin it now," I said.

"You and I both know you to can make it work. I still haven't met the boy yet, make a phone call invite him for dinner," she smiled.

Ya know that's not a bad idea.

"Ahh brain blast!" I exclaimed running to my room.

I heard my mom laugh as I ran up the stares.

-

I grabbed my phone and called Luke.

Ring.

Ring.

Ring.

"Hello," a groggy voice answered.

"Oh, did I wake you, I can call back later," I said.

"No, no. What do you need," he chuckled.

"Well I was thinking. You guys are doing a small tour here in the US, and you coming to LA for a couple days. Why don't you come visit. Meet my mom, hang out," I suggested.

"Em, that sounds great, but that's not for another four months," he stated.

Well damn I thought it was like two weeks. I'll for sure have a huge belly by then.

"Well then I guess I'll see you in four months," I said.

He laughed.

"I guess you will," he said.

I smiled.

-

I let Luke go back to sleep. Well I guess I have four months to figure this all out. I had no idea what I was going to say, but at least he'll know the truth.

-

-

-

So she's gonna tell Luke.

And I just want to say if facts don't add up I apologies, like I found out a few days ago that it actually takes a day to get from Sydney to Brisbane, but for the sake of the story just go with what ever I wrote all those chapters ago.

Ily guys!
