Thomas pov

"It's positive" the words rang in my ears I could feel my legs getting weak threatening to give out. "What!" I say grabbing both the pregnancy test and the box out of his hands and looking at them going back and forth from the box to the test checking the results. "This can't be right!" I say frantically looking up at Lafayette. I turned around to check if the other pregnancy test was positive; it was. I could feel tears starting to well up in my eyes threatening to fall. A gentle hand was soon placed on my shoulder; trying to comfort me. I turn around immediately when I felt the hand on my shoulder and pulled lafayette into a tight hug. The tears that were once threatening to fall were now streaming down my face one after the other. We stayed there for awhile but Lafayette eventually pulled away and looked me in the eyes and reassured me that everything was going to be okay. I sighed and unwillingly agreed with him giving him a thankful yet very worried look. "What am i going to tell Alex?!" I asked Laf causing my worry to come back. "Well...your going to have to tell him...you know that right? " Laf replied. "I'm not telling him! He hates me; you know that!" I said even more frantically than before causing my tears to come back. "Your going to have to tell him eventually Thomas; and he doesn't hate you." Laf said still trying to comfort me but it wasn't working. Awhile later Laf pulls me out of the bathroom and into the kitchen where he sits me down and hands me the food that we had gotten on the way over here. But the food was already to cold and soggy to enjoy. We ate in silence the room filled with tension. After we finished eating I drove Laf back to his place. Once I dropped him off I headed to another convenient store to get some more pregnancy test. I drove back to my place; as soon as I got there I rushed in and into the bathroom where I took the test again. Time went by faster than it had the first time I had taken the tests but the anxiety was still the same. One after the other the results came in; they were all positive. I went straight to my bed after reading the results of the last one. I plopped myself down on my bed and I started to bawl my eyes out. The stream of tears wouldn't stop coming; I cried so much and so profusely that i soon got extremely dehydrated it was to the point were I couldn't even cry anymore because there was no liquid to cry. A couple of minutes later I fell asleep physically and emotionally exhausted.
