Mindblown

Chapter Forty-Seven

"No! No! Shit! Shit! FUCK!" Kirstie yells from the bathroom and Avi can hear her from the kitchen which is downstairs and to the left. He looks up in the general direction of it until Tyrion and Sansa come up to him.
     "Yeah she scared me too," he tells them and makes his way to the stairs, Kirstie is at the top of them, "Are you o-"
     "You were right, I'm pregnant, all that nausea, it's not stress, that stomach bug probably wasn't even a fucking stomach bug, and that's why you didn't catch it," she throws the pregnancy test on the ground much like a toddler would if they were throwing a tantrum.
     Avi doesn't know what to say, he can't express happiness over this because Kirstie looks furious.
     "How the fuck does this happen, I get the jab and you wear a condom every time!" She drops her arm. "No, you know actually I forgot to go to my last jab appointment, we were camping!" She gets louder as she speaks.
     "Aren't we lucky we use condoms too then or it would have happened sooner," he starts to make her way up the steps.
     "Are you blaming me?"
     Avi stops just a couple of steps down from her, so oddly she is taller. "I don't blame anyone, I see this as a happy accident."
     Kirstie hides her face in her hands, "I'm not ready for this," she sits on the top stair continuing to cover her face.
     Avi half crouches, half sits so he's still in front of her but a step closer and a little to her right.      "It's gonna be okay."
     "I'm gonna have to cancel my tour."
     "Hold on, hold on. You've only done an at home test, so it's not even a confirmed pregnancy yet," Avi tries to comfort her with that thought.
     "Don't try to get my hopes up," she warns.
     "I'm not. But even if you are pregnant, who says you have to cancel your tour?"
     "Avi I can't tour if I'm pregnant."
     "Why not? Isn't that exactly what May's doing?"
     "But she's only doing it for like three weeks. I have fifty shows in the first leg," her face is about level at his as she slouches over her legs.
     "And I think that as long as you take care of yourself and get plenty of rest on your off days then you can do it," he gives her an encouraging smile.
    "You really think so?"
     "Yes I do, you'll probably have to postpone the rest of the tour, any further legs, or cancel, depending on how you feel. But that's okay because you've only announced the American dates anyway."
      "True," she nods slowly as she sits up. "I just hope my fans won't get mad since I announced it as a world tour."
     "Well you are going to Canada too, so if we're technical, that counts as a world tour. It's just that it's a dick move to call it a world tour, but it counts," he jokes. "Besides, they'll understand when you tell them you're pregnant."
     "Or they'll notice when I start getting fat and they call me out."
     "Yeah but it doesn't count as fat because it's another person's weight."
     "Yeah," she nods. "That's a good way to think about it," she pauses. "I think you made me happy about this Avi," she has a tiny smile playing at the corners of her lips.
     His smile is bigger, "Well I'm glad."
     "It's just..." She trails off, shaking her head.
     "What?" Avi dips his head to try and meet her eyes. "You can tell me."
     She sighs, "I just always thought I'd," she hesitates. "That I'd, I don't know, be married before I had a baby. Like I know its old fashioned and families come in all different shapes and sizes these days, but still..." she trails off again, not wanting to ramble on.
     Avi shrugs, "Then let's get married."
     Her head shoots up, almost connecting with Avi's, "Don't be stupid."
    "How's it stupid?" He chuckles, "I love you and you love me."
     She giggles, "Now I've got the Barney song stuck in my head."
     "Kirst, I'm serious though."
     "So am I, we've been together for five months, people are gonna think we're nuts."
     "Well as far as I'm concerned, you are nuts," he gives her a teasing smile.
     Kirstie lightly pushes him, "Stupid." Kirstie leans against him. "So we don't get married if I'm not pregnant?"
     He wraps an arm around her, "We can do whatever you want, I'd marry you either way."
     "Then let's just do it, let's get married before I go on tour."
     "Okay."
     "Okay, lets figure out how to get an appointment to find out for realsies," she pats her stomach.
    "You just call up and make an appointment," Avi chuckles.
     "But who do you call?" She stresses.
     "The Doctor," he says in the same way.
     "What Doctor?"
     "Your Doctor."
     "It doesn't have to be a baby Doctor?"
     "Um," he is more unsure in his reply, "Maybe."
     "I'll google it."
     "Yeah okay," he looks over her shoulder as she pulls out her phone.

A/N: Did I surprise you or was it too obvious? What about them getting married, is it a good idea?
