It was the next day and Ava woke up that morning feeling perfectly fine for the first time in days. This made her feel slightly disheartened a wave of relief also. As she was trying to sleep last night her mind wandered to if she was pregnant.
She had only recently turned 21 and Crawford is only 22. They weren't in a position to be ready for a child. But she knew if magically she was pregnant, that child would be staying because that was more than likely the only chance they would ever have at having a baby. Her mind was all over the place. She was trying her hardest not to get her hopes up, but deep down she was.
She sighed as she sat at the counter in the kitchen. It was already 11am and Crawford was still sleeping. JC and Chelsea headed out to go to the store and Corey was cooking him and Ava some breakfast.
"So are you gonna tell me what's wrong or do I need to keep guessing?" Corey questioned her, placing some bacon on her plate.
"I don't know what you're talking about" Ava lied.
"Girl, I can read you like a book. What's bothering you?" He questioned her, sitting opposite her to begin eating after he finished up the cooking.
Ava glanced over at the hallway to ensure Crawford wasn't lingering around or able to hear.
She sighed and looked over to Corey.
"I thought I was pregnant, okay?" She told him.
"What do you mean you 'thought'? Did you take a test?" He questioned her, feeling taken back by what she said.
"No. What's the point, I'm practically infertile remember" she told him.
"But what if you are. Ava if you're having symptoms then you need to take a test. The sooner the better" he encouraged her, feeling hopefully for her also.
"I just don't want to take a test and see it's negative. It will break me just as much as it did when I was 16 and finding out I'll never be able to have kids" she explained to him, almost feeling reality hit her as she said that.
He sent her a sympathetic look before speaking up.
"Who else knows about this?" He questioned her.
"Franny and Colby" she muttered, staring down at her plate of food.
"Okay eat up. Because, after you've eaten we're meeting up with them and grabbing you a test" he said, beginning to eat his food slightly quicker. Ava went to object but he held his hand up to stop her.
"No. Eat" he sassed at her. She couldn't help but let out a small laugh before doing as she was told.
"Just don't tell Crawford" she told him quietly, earning a nod in response.
They hurried and ate their food before leaving a note for Crawford saying they went shopping and would be back soon. They got in Ava's Range Rover and headed to Franny's place to pick her up. Colby wasn't going with them to the store but told them to go back to the trap house after where she could take the test as everyone else was out for the day.
The car ride to the store with the three of them was practically silent. Ava's mind was all over the place. Franny and Corey tried to occasionally make small talk but failed everytime.
They were in and out of the store pretty quickly. Ava picked up one Clear Blue test as she wanted to use a trust worthy one. The three of them were back in the car in no time and headed for the trap house.
Colby let them inside almost immediately and without even saying a word, Ava headed upstairs to Colby's bathroom.
Colby, Corey and Franny exchanged looks before following closely behind her.
They waited outside the door for a few minutes whilst she was in the bathroom and waited for her to return.
Whilst she was in the bathroom, she'd never felt her heart beat so fast. She felt incredibly anxious and on edge, she didn't know how she would react no matter what the outcome would be. She read the instructions for the test and done everything it said. She then had to wait a few minutes so opened the door to let the others in.
"So?" Corey asked impatiently.
"I don't know yet, I gotta wait a couple of minutes" Ava muttered, leaning against the counter that she had placed the test on.
"You okay?" Franny asked softly. Ava sighed and shrugged her shoulders.
"Nervous" is all she could say in response.
Her phone soon started beeping, implying the time was up and she could finally look at the test.
The room fell silent and Ava glanced at them all before picking up the test. She took a deep breath before looking down at it.
Positive.
5 weeks.
Her breath hitched in her throat as her eyes widened.
"Oh my god" she choked up, throwing her hand over her mouth in pure shock. They all stared at her eagerly and she looked up at them all.
"I-it's positive" she said, handing it over to Franny.
"Oh my god!" Franny screeched.
"No fricken way" Corey said, looking over Franny's shoulder with a smile on his face.
"Ave...you're pregnant" Colby spoke in shock.
"I-I need to book a doctors appointment, just incase it's a false positive...people get those all the time" she rushed.
"Book one now for as soon as possible" Franny told her.
"But Ava, these tests are always accurate. It's basically 99% that you're having a baby" Colby told her calmly, beaming from ear to ear as he felt over the moon for her.
Ava stared at him and breathed heavily.
"I just, I just wanna be sure before I get my hopes up. And I don't want to tell Crawford until I'm sure" she told them. They all nodded understandably and helped her book her doctors appointment which thankfully was only 48 hours time.
This was really happening.
Ava magically and hopefully got pregnant. She was over the moon but petrified. How would Crawford even feel about this? If it was even certain.
