You sprawled out on Colby's bed, feeling kind of sick. The past two or so weeks, you'd been incredibly nervous and for very good reason.
A couple weeks ago, you and Colby had "fooled around" when you came home from a party. Neither of you were drunk when it happened but you didn't use a condom and you were off your birth control for the month. You didn't think anything would happen at the time, but the last few days were making you a little scared.
You had thrown up a couple times and were in a constant state of not feeling good. You hadn't said anything to Colby yet because you were kind of scared to tell him you might be pregnant.
You decided that you need to stop putting it off and find out what's happening. You reluctantly called Devyn, who was out at the store buying some snacks. You asked her to pick up a pregnancy test and she excitedly told you she would.
You had to wait about 20 minutes before she got back, during which time Colby and the boys finished filming. You heard footsteps coming towards the room, but you didn't know it was Colby until he walked in, smiling.
Shit. Your nervousness grew, making your stomach hurt more. You give an anxious smile and try not to be obvious.
He sits on the end of the bed by your feet.
"That was the STUPIDEST video I think Corey's ever going to film," he says, laughing.
You can't even manage to laugh back because you hear Devyn's car door slam shut and the front door open. Your anxiety shoots through the roof. You quickly get out of the bed and tell Colby to wait right there. He's confused but does not try to follow you.
You go downstairs quickly and meet her in the kitchen. She has the pregnancy test in her hand.
She hands it over to you.
"What are you going to do if you are pregnant?"
You nervously turn the box around in your hands, not really sure how to answer yet. You would love to be a mom, but you had no idea how Colby would react. You shrug.
"Thanks anyways, I owe you one." You say bye to her quickly and rush upstairs to the bathroom. He's still waiting in the room, the door closed. You shut the bathroom door behind you and take a deep breath.
You take the test and sit on the floor while you wait for the results. The five minutes it takes for the test strip to work is agonizing. You're so scared for Colby's reaction. If the test is positive, your life would change forever.
The five minutes is up. You draw in a shaky breath and pick up the test strip. You slowly look down at it.
It's positive.
You want to scream out of excitement but you don't say anything. You take another deep breath and find yourself smiling. You contemplate waiting another day or two before telling him but in the end decide to do it right then.
"Colby, can you come here for a minute?"
You stand up and look in the mirror and back down at the test strip. The bathroom door opens and Colby comes in cautiously. He walks up behind you and you hold up the strip for him to see.
He freezes, his mouth open in surprise.
"That's- this is fake isn't it? You're pranking me."
You shake your head and look at him in the mirror. His expression goes from shocked to happy in seconds.
He wraps his arms around your stomach and picks you up off the ground. He spins you around a couple times before setting you down and kissing you.
He gives a cute little laugh and looks at you with a huge smile lighting up his face.
"Are you sure you're not lying?"
"I promise, Colby."
You sit on the countertop and he walks out the door for a second before coming back in. He walks over to the shower and back to you, running his hands through his hair. He rubs his face and sniffles.
He's crying. You can see tears running down his cheeks as he paces the bathroom.
"Hey, it's okay. Come here." He walks over to you and stands between your legs. You hug him and gently run your fingers through his hair. He buries his face in your neck and squeezes you tightly.
"I'm gonna be a dad," he whispers shakily, and repeats it again just to be sure.
"That's right baby. You're gonna be the best dad."
He lets go of you and helps you off the counter.
"Can we go tell Sam?"
Colby sounds like an adorable eight-year-old who just opened his Christmas presents. He has the biggest smile on his face.
You nod.
"Only Sam though, ok? I don't want everybody knowing yet." Colby nods excitedly and takes your hand. He leads you to Sam's room and impatiently knocks on the door.
Sam opens it and Colby can barely contain his excitement. Sam seems concerned at first because he's never seen Colby so excited about anything.
"You're not gonna believe this when I tell you."
"...what's going on?"
"I'm gonna be a dad."
It takes Sam a moment to process what Colby said, but when he realizes what's happening he gets the same look of shocked excitement that Colby had only minutes earlier.
Sam pulls you into a big hug and tells you how happy he is for you. He congratulates Colby and hugs him too.
"Since you're my best friend, I thought you should know first."
"That's awesome man! You two are gonna be great parents." Colby asks Sam not to tell anybody else about it yet.
"I won't say anything but only if me and Katrina can be the cool aunt and uncle."
Colby laughed and you both agreed that you'd be alright with that.
"How long have you known for?"
"I've known for about a week and Colby just found out," you say, holding Colby's hand tightly.
"Well that's great you guys. I'm super excited for you." He gives you both one last hug and a thumbs up before you and Colby go back to the bedroom you two shared.
You sit on the bed, on sides opposite from each other.
"I can't wait." You laugh at this and Colby smiles. He's unbelievably excited.
"I hope it's a boy so we can play football and I can teach him about girls." At this, you laugh even harder.
"I also wouldn't mind if it WAS a girl because she'd be beautiful just like you. I could learn how to do her hair and dance with her and all that good stuff."
"You're gonna be a good dad, Colby."
"You really think so?"
You nod and smile, happy that he was the one you would get to share this experience with.
