I saw the 2 lines. Oh, God. No. No, no, no, no, no. NO. I'm pregnant??? I'm not ready to be a mom! Well, I guess I am, but I don't want to be! Do I? I don't know.

I'm stuck between happy and sad. What should I feel? Most importantly, how do I tell Moose??

I decided to take him on a cruise and tell him. Over his favourite dinner. So that's what I'm going to do. I put the pregnancy test into a box and I'll give it to him at dinner.

"Moose!" I yell. "Pack your bags, we're going on a cruise!" "Okay!" he calls back.

Later that day on the cruise...

"Hey, let's get some dinner, okay?" I ask him. "I had something important to tell you." "Baby, let's stay here for a while," he says. "George, come on, I need to tell you something now!" I whine.

He chuckles. "Okay, okay." He gets up from the bed and goes to the surface of the boat. We go to eat dinner. "Okay, now, what did you want to tell me?" he says. "Let's get our food first."

After we got our food, halfway through the dinner, Moose put his hand on mine. "Now," he says. "What did you need to tell me? You're not breaking up with me, are you?"

I shake my head and laugh. "That's the last thing I'd do. I hope you're not breaking up with me, this wouldn't work out if you did." "No, of course not, Fire," he smiles.

I pull out the box and give it to him. "Open it," I say. I could tell I was nervous because I was sweating and my heart was racing. If he didn't like it, that was his own fault.

He smiles and looks at the box. Slowly, he opens it and looks at it. He didn't have an expression for a second. "Well?" I ask. "Are you excited?"
