Do you trust me?

Gabriella POV

Its the day before the wedding and Becca stayed over to help me with some wedding details. I was not feeling so good and maybe the butterflies are starting to kick in.

Becca: Ella?

I looked up at her.

Becca: Are you ok? You look pale.

"Im ok. Im just nervous."

Becca: Oh its normal! And Im so excited and honoured to be your maid of honour.

I chuckled at her.

Becca: It will be even more awesome if you had allowed me to throw you a bachelorette party.

"Nah. Just to spend the night with you is enough of a party."

Both Zach and I chose not to have a bachelor party. We just spent some time with friends for dinner.

I felt sick and rushed to my bathroom to throw up.

Becca: Oh my god. Ella are you ok?

I waved her off.

"Butterflies."

Becca: Ella? When was your last period?

Damn!

I never did chart it. It was not so regular to begin with and so I did not bother to chart.

"Mine is not regular but maybe 2 months back?"

Becca: Have you tested?

"Its impossible. Im on the pill."

Becca: Pill might not be a 100%. Ill get a kit for you. I have one in my bag.

I stared at her in horror.

"Why?"

Becca: I like to be prepared. You know... me and Gary always..

I cut her off.

"Eww Becca! Thats my brother!"

She laughed it off and fetch the kit from her bag.

I took the test and waited.

"I cant look Becca!"

Becca: Its... positive!

I gasped.

Becca was so excited, she was jumping.

"Becca listen. Dont say anything to anyone till I tell Zach. Not even my brother."

Becca: Sisters code!

I was both nervous and scared. What if Zach doesnt want the baby? Is it too soon? I have to tell him before the wedding.

I called him.

Zach: Hi babe! I miss you.

"I miss you too."

Zach: I cant wait to see you tomorrow.

"Me too. Listen.. are you with John now?"

Zach: Yup. He is staying here tonight. Why?

"Can I see you for a while?"

Zach: Is something wrong?

"No. I need to pass you something."

Zach: Oh sure. Ill drop by soon.

Zach POV

I was driving to her place with John. We are going to get some drinks later.

When she answered her door, she looked worried.

"Elle? Whats wrong?"

Gabriella: Nothing. Hi John!,

"Hey Gabby!"

Gabriella: Zach can we take a walk? John you can step in. Gary and Becca are watching a movie in the living room.

John: Yeah!

I took my jacket and walked out with Zach.

Zach: Baby? Whats wrong? You are not having second thoughts are you?

"Oh no no.. its just. I was worried you might."

Zach: Me?! I cant wait to marry you. Ive been waiting for tomorrow to finally sleep in the same bed with you every day! Why would you ever think that?

"Hold that thought"

She sat on the bench at the park near her place.

She took out something from her jacket and pass it to me.

"Here."

I took it and gasped.

"I need to tell you before the wedding. I dont know how you will react or whether you want the baby. And I needed to know whether youll have second thoughts..."

He cut me off by pulling me tight.

Zach: Dont you ever think for a second I dont want kids with you. This is the best wedding gift I could possibly have.

When he pulled back, I started crying.

Zach: I love you Gabriella Sanders and nothing will ever change that! You have made me a very happy man and a father to be.

He kissed me and I stayed in his arms for a while.

Zach: Who else know?

"Only Becca because she gave me the kit."

Zach: We will tell them tomorrow at the wedding? If you are ready?

I nodded before walking back.
