Jobs, kids and her

A few minutes later. I stormed out of Regina's room and headed downstairs.

"Emma come back" Regina says chasing me down the stairs.

"No not happening. Im leaving. I can't believe I came back here" I say as I'm putting my leather jacket back around me.

"Emma" she says as she grabbed my arm before I could grab the door handle.

"Yes that's my name. Glad to know you actually know it" I replied glaring round at her while feeling hurt.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to say it. I haven't don't that with her in years ok" Regina sighed as she looked down embarrassed.

"You said Monica while we were having sex. You said your wife's name who you claimed was a fake and nothing happened" I say getting angry now at what just happened.

"It was a mistake. I haven't slept with her in months. I only did when we were drunk" she says as she held my hand quickly.

"That doesn't make it ok. If I went down the street and made out with a girl but said it was a mistake would it be ok" I furiously asked ripping my hand from her grip.

"No but"

"Then don't tell me it was a mistake. Fuck you. I don't know why I ever told you I love you" I say cutting in on her.

"Ok enough. I didn't even orgasm. It was just while you were kissing my neck" she sighed as if I was stupid.

"No that doesn't matter. If your going to say another girls name while we're in bed then I don't want to do this" I snapped as I pulled her door open.

I stormed out the house and to my car. Just before I got in I threw up on the floor. I've been doing that the last few days. I went straight to the pharmacy to see if they can give me anything. I walked in and to the counter. I knew who the woman was since I remember her from awhile ago. Her name was Rachel.

"Hi. How can I help" she asked looking up at me.

"I've been throwing up every day for the past month. Do you have anything that can stop it" I asked realising I don't actually feel sick.

"I got questions. Have you had sex in the past month with a man" rachel asked looking curiously at me.

"Holy shit. I know where your going with this. I can't be. Can I have a test" I asked quickly as I figured out what she was talking about.

"Here" she says handing me a pregnancy test. I took it and looked down shocked. I can't be. I don't want to be. I'm too old now to have a baby. I'm 31 years old. "There's a bathroom out back" she quickly says looking awkwardly at me.

"Thanks" I say walking towards it.

I went into a cubical and quickly peed on the stick. As I came out I saw rachel stood there. She smiled awkwardly and I returned the gesture.

"What's it say" she asked placing her hand on my shoulder.

"Got to wait 30 seconds. Rach I can't be. I refuse to be" I say placing it on the side to wash my hands.

"That's not how it works. Look em your already a good mum. You'll be fine" Rachel says trying to reassure me.

"Yeah 13 years ago I became a mum. I'm 31 now. My pregnant days should be over. I'm too old to have a baby" I sighed leaning against the sink annoyed at this.

"Don't over think this. Your a great mum and Fredrick will help you right" she questioned causing me to frown.

"I broke up with him. He's a jerk. Has it been 30 seconds" I asked looking up at Rachel and avoiding the test.

"Yes. Check it" she nods softly at me.

"I don't want to. You do it" I say holding it up to her.

Rachel took the test and looked at at. I can't tell by her face what it is. A slight smile grew in the corner of her mouth.

"Positive. Your pregnant" she softly says showing me the test.

"No... no! No! No! I can't be. Get me another test and a bottle of water. I'll do it again. I can't possibly be pregnant" I say panicking now that I might actually be pregnant.

"Emma this test is the best we have. It's rare it's wrong. You can do it again but your pregnant. I know you are" she sighed as she looked at me like I'm stupid.

"God dammit! I can't do this. What am I going to do? Do I tell Fredrick? He ran off last time. Maybe he'll do the same. Although I don't think I'm that lucky for him to leave" I say in a huff that he is back in my life.

"Calm down. Your good friends with Regina right? Go talk to her. She helped me and so many people in this town when they were in situations they couldn't get out of. You made her wise years ago. She will know what to do" Rachel says smiling softly at me.

The one woman I can talk to about everything and will know what to do is Regina. The same woman who called out someone else's name during sex. She's the only one will know what to do.

"I got to go. Don't tell anyone" I say as I grabbed the test and quickly walked out.

I went to my car and drove home quickly. I walked in and closed the front door. I just leaned against it. Not knowing how I can have another baby. I'm looking at the ground shocked.

"Mum I" Freddie says from the lounge door. I looked up but still shocked. He was looking concerned at me. "What's wrong"

"I'm going to have a baby... Fredrick got me pregnant again" I say still full of shock at this.

"Your what" he replied as his eyes doubled in size.

"I'm not telling Fredrick. I'm not telling Regina either. I'm not sure what to do" I say starting to over think everything now.
