Tell Him | Shane Madej

Pairing: Shane Madej x Reader

Warning: Swearing, fighting/bickering, and fluff.

Summary: You're Shane's girlfriend, and quite recently have realized that your period is late—late kind of late. You take a pregnancy test to either confirm or deny your growing worries, only to see a little plus sign on the test. After panicking and being unsure of how to break the news to Shane—as you've only been dating a year—you seek comfort in Ryan who tells you to be honest with your unknowing boyfriend. But when a rather idiotic fight between you and Shane breaks out that evening, he finds out in a way you wish he hadn't, and as such, you see his reaction first hand.

   I stared at my reflection in the bathroom mirror before me, my cheeks hot and my palms sweaty. I looked over at the pink box, its generic brand name carving a chasmic hole through my stomach that nauseated me—or perhaps the nausea was caused by something else. Nevertheless, I shakily grasped and opened the seemingly demonic box, the hole growing exponentially. I was almost certain that if Ryan had entered the room with his thermal camera at this very moment, there'd be a figure emerging from the box itself. I peeked inside at the contents of it, a piece of paper with instructions and the test was all I could see. I pulled out both, throwing the box onto the bathroom counter and taking my seat on the toilet to prepare.

In a matter of what seemed to be 8 incredibly long minutes, the answer I had dreaded was clear, and tears swiftly filled my eyes.

Pregnant.

Pregnant.

How will Shane react? We've only been dating for a year? What if he breaks up with me, and I end up raising it all by myself and get disowned by my family for not having protected se—

Stop it. You'll be fine.

Tomorrow when you see Shane, the first thing you'll do is tell him.

I wrestled with the sheets and got into bed, cuddling up in the blanket next to an empty space where Shane slept when he'd come over to my place—all I wanted was for him to have actually been there to hold me. I kept repeating that same thought over and over again in my head. Tell him. Tell him.

How in the hell was I going to tell him?

   The atmosphere in the office building the following morning was welcoming and warm, but cool in contrast with the hot L.A air. I made my way to my desk where I had plans to edit the most recent Buzzfeed Unsolved video, at least until Ryan walked in with his morning coffee and planted his butt two seats to the left of me to leave a space in between us for Shane.

"Gooood morning, y/n," Ryan smiled, taking off his jean jacket and hanging it over his chair.

"Gooood morning, Ryan," I responded happily, mimicking his bright tone.

"How was your commute this morning?" Ryan asked as he took a sip of his coffee.

"It was..." I paused for a moment, remembering the fact that my stomach had been turning the entire ride here as I pondered what in the world I would say and how I would react when I saw Shane. "Uneventful."

"Uneventful?" He smiled as he stood from his chair, quickly jumping behind my chair that he grabbed and shook playfully. "You mean there weren't any ghastly ghouls trying to eat you??"

"Not today there wasn't," an all too familiar voice stated nonchalantly. I looked to my right to see my beautiful boyfriend Shane—a face I was both pleasantly surprised to see and absolutely terrified of. I forced a smile as Shane leaned his long torso in and planted a soft, gentle kiss on my lips, handing me a croissant he had bought from Starbucks.
