Love Me or Leave Me (Trilogy)

Chapter 50

I paced the kitchen back in forth, as I eyed the yellow envelope that sat on the counter. The patenity test results came in today and I felt like I was going to be sick. "What time is it?" I asked August. "It's 2:15." I sighed. "What the hell is taking Trey so long??" August shook his head. "You just called him five minutes ago, he's on his way, Im sure he's speeding as is."

I took a break from my pace and leaned agaisnt one of the kitchen counters. "This is too much pressure babe, I can't breath." I placed a hand on my forehead and closed my eyes. "Calm down, and breath slowly." I felt his arms wrap around me as he places his head in the crook of my neck. "Trey gon be here soon, ight?" I nodded, relaxing in his embrace.

Just then the doorbell went off, causing butterflies in my stomach. "I'll get it, you just stay here and breath." He kissed my cheek and let me go. I turned around from the counter and watched him make his way to the front door. "God, help me." I mumbled. I pushed my hair away from my face and stood up straight, waiting for them to come back.

"Trey's here." August said walking into the kitchen with Trey behind him. I cracked a small smile, trying to save face for Trey, I didn't want him knowing how nervous I really was. "Hey." I grabbed his hand and pulled him into a hug. "Calm down, your shaking." He said in a slight chuckle. I let him go slowly and took a deep breath.

"...So do you wanna open it now, or do you need a few more minutes?" August asked me. I shook my head. "No, no, it's fine....let's just get it over with." I wiped the small beads of sweat off my forehead as I glanced back over at the envelope on the counter. "....Is somebody gunna get it?" I asked looking between the two of them. Trey stepped up and inhaled deeply. I watched him pick up the enevlope and turn to me.

"Here, Im sure you want to open it." I looked down at the envelope in his hands and shook my head. "No, I-I can't..one of you do it." August and Trey looked at one another, I guess trying to figure out who would open it.

"If you wanna open it, you can, if not, I'll do it." August said. Trey nodded. "It's fine, I'll do it." I crossed my arms across my chest, and dug my nails into my arm. This was the moment we all were waiting for and I couldn't believe it was finally here. We both watched Trey as his hands undid the prong and pushed the top of the envelope open. "Shit." I mumbled. He reached inside and pulled out a few papers.

"You want me to read the letter they sent?" I shook my head. "No, I could care less about that right now, really." I said in a chuckle. I watched him skim through a few papers, sitting all the unimportant ones to the side. In that moment, I remembered how this was the same place August and I read the results to Stasia's paternity test a year ago, and if that wasn't deja vu then I don't know what is.

All of a sudden Trey stopped on one of the papers and began to read it. I could feel my heart beating out my chest as I watched his eyes scroll the paper back and forth. August placed his hand on my shoulder and quickly rubbed it, trying to calm me down. I shot him a small smile, and turned my attention back to Trey. I kept staring at Trey as he read, when a smile spread across his face.

I swalloed hard, knowing what he was about to say next. "Congratulations." He looked up from the paper and stuck his hand out towards August. My eyes grew wide. "Wait...August is the father?!?" Trey nodded. "Yeah, Im %99.9 sure." He said with half a smile. "Oh my god." I turned to August, who looked just as shocked as me.

He finally grabbed Trey's hand and shook it. "Congrats to the both of y'all." I wrapped my arms around his torso and hugged him extremely tight. "Baby we're having a baby!" I semi-yelled.Trey laughed, while August was still processing everything. He places his arm around my neck and hugged me back. "Im gunna let you guys celebrate." Trey sat the paper down and turned around, walking out of the kitchen.
