What Happens In A Small Town

Chapter Thirty-One

K E L S E Y

I walk through the door "B?" but I don't get an answer so he is either upstairs or downstairs one I just need to figure out which so I can get this done with him walking in and seeing it before I'm ready. I toss the truck keys onto the counter and make my way upstairs first and once I know he isn't up there I get to work on the idea that Ash gave me and I hope to god this goes well. 

Once I get everything set up I write his name in the box and take a deep breath trying to calm my racing heart jeez you can do this Kels... You've done it before only difference is that you are actually pregnant this time.

I make my way back downstairs and I set the box on the counter in the kitchen knowing that he will see it when he comes up. I open the door leading down to the basement and walk down "hey B.... I just wanted to tell you I was back"

He looks up from his notebook and smiles "alright baby girl, I'll be up in a little bit"

I smile at him "it's okay take your time, just wanted you to know I was back" 

I smile at him again before making my way back up the stairs and I park myself on the couch flipping through the channels and end up on Animal Planet so I just leave it there but my mind is elsewhere.... when he comes up this could go one of two ways.... either very good or very bad and at this point I am not really sure which to expect. 

I mean the main thing I'm worried about is that this isn't what he wants right now, I mean seriously we've only been back together not quite three months yet and this is happening god I need to pull myself together. 

I was so lost in my thoughts that I almost didn't hear the basement door open.... almost.  Well, I guess the moment of truth is about to happen. A minute later B walks into the living room "Kels?" I pick my head up off the arm of the couch "in here" 

He holds the box up "what's this?" I bite my lip for a second "why don't you open it and find out?" lacing my fingers together to keep my hands from shaking. he picks my legs up and sits down beside me putting my legs back across his lap.

Opening the box, he looks inside and even from my spot looking at him from the side I see his eyes widen as the box drops onto my legs, B turns his head looking at me wide-eyed and a little pale in the face "Oh my god Kelsey are you serious? Is this really happening?"

Hmmm I can't tell if that is a good are you serious or a bad are you serious. 

+++++
This is like shortest chapter in this book but I wanted to leave a cliff hanger so I didn't really have much choice but to make it short XD
