I'm sitting on the edge of the bathtub waiting for a response...everything has a sense now..the constant hunger,my bad mood,the emotionality....I'm so nervous...what I know for sure is that I love my girlfriend and if this is gonna be real it would be a-  "Cari,is everything okay?you've been in there for 5 minutes"  Shannon's voice interrupts my thoughts  "umm yes,don't worry babe,I'm coming out"  "okay". here we are,it's time to look..I sigh...my breath and legs are shaking..I get closer to the sink...the test is there,waiting for me...I close my eyes,my heart is beating faster.I take the stick in my hands and open my eyes...the world stops..there are two lines  "okay Cari...two lines..so it means...it's positive" I mumble to myself..I take the box to read it again and be sure...confirmed...I'm pregnant....I feel like a volcano is erupting inside of my body...I feel shocked and a heatwave is running through my veins...I hold onto the sink,trying to breathe properly...when I recover,I smile...some tears run through my cheeks....we'll have a baby!I wash my face...now I have to tell her...even if my heart knows what her reaction is gonna be,I'm ultra nervous...I get out of the bathroom,pretending a cool that i haven't.she smiles  "Shan,we need to talk...."  her face changes  "what is happening baby girl?"  I take her hands  "let's sit". I'm looking at her perfect face..she's so beautiful that I'm freaking out..ugh I thought it would've been easier  "Cari....you can tell me anything"  she says cupping my cheek,I nod.. "look...we've been together for two years"  "yes...in two days it'll be our anniversary"  "yes and...we made plans...we...we...."   she laughs  "Cari..why are you nervous?it's me..Shanbee"  I breathe out...she's right.she pulls me closer to her body and I put my legs on hers..I look into her eyes  "god,I love you so much Shannon..."  "I love you so much princess"   okay,now speak Cari.  "you know that i've been hungry and moody"  "shit,yes.it's been an hard job"  "and...the nausea and the sexual attention...we had sex behind a fucking bush"  we laugh..I sigh once more  "in my mind it started forming an idea...but I had to confirmed it so...."   she has no clue..I'm gonna shock her  "earlier in the bathroom,I had the confirmation..."  she furrows her eyebrows  "in the bathroom?"  I place a kiss on her lips  "you're so pure baby...I love you"  she smiles and I continue  "what I'm trying to say is...I'm pregnant."   her face is blank  "Shannon...baby,did you hear me?"  her mouth is open and I can tell she's thinking   "babe,please...react..."  I'm starting to fear the worst but finally she speaks  "are you..are you sure?"  "I did the test...it's positive"  I can feel her shaking...a smile appears on her mouth,growing bigger second by second  "we'll have a baby?"  "yes.."   she laughs  "we'll have a baby!"  "yes!"  she jumps on me,holding me tight.when we pull away,I notice tears on her face  "why are you crying?"  "because it's the most beautiful thing you could ever tell me"  I hug her   "I love you so much baby...this is a huge gift"  she says and then places a kiss on my hand  "I'm happy...we'll be a family"  she nods  "yeah..we should go to the doctor,tho"  "you're right.I'm gonna call her tomorrow to see if she could meet us in the afternoon". she stands up,I smile watching her doing back and forth in the room  "Shan,stop.let's go to bed"  "I can't..I wanna scream it to everyone..we have to tell our parents..I'm calling my mom"   she takes her phone but I stand up,holding her wrist  "babe,it's late.we have time...just lay with me.I wanna be in your arms"  I kiss her..she takes my hand to guide me.we get under the cover and I place my head on her chest..her hand is on my side,playing with my skin...this is happiness...I caress her chin  "I'm so proud of you"   she turns her head to look at me  "why?"  "for your reaction..I knew you would've been mature"  "honestly,I don't know how I could have reacted differently...inside of you there's our child"  she says touching my belly,I place a kiss on her forehead and cuddle more,letting the warmth of our love accompany me into the arms of Orpheus.

I'm in the bathroom,looking at myself in the mirror...Shannon comes in  "good morning" I turn around to kiss her  "good morning Shanbee"  we hug and I brush my nose into her neck  "you smell so good"  "it's a good..remember when you couldn't bear the smell of chicken that day?I hope I'm gonna be saved from your hypersensitive nose"  "about that...we have to tell Alex" "oh yes..she'll freak out". she steps inside my shower and sings..I laugh...she's so happy and my heart is complete.
