Surprised // A.I (completed)

We thought once lockdown and quarantine were over, things would go back to normal. We couldn't have been more wrong. We're somewhat normal but we do have to wear masks out in public- which is perfectly fine.

Ashton and I have been out a little bit. We are still on edge with the virus and neither of us wants to get sick.

I guess that plan failed though because I've felt horrible for weeks now. It's not COVID because I don't have those symptoms and Ashton and I got tested when I first started feeling bad. But it doesn't last long- maybe a couple of hours then I'm good.

I finally got out of bed. It was just 10:30 which wasn't too terrible. I tossed on the hoodie that was thrown on the bed, then walked down the hall and found Ashton sitting on the couch on his phone.

"Oh!" Ashton laughed as I climbed on his lap and wrapped my arms around his middle, "Good morning" he smiled,

"Good morning" I leaned forward and kissed his lips.

I pulled back and laid my head on Ashton's shoulder. He didn't move me but held me closer,

"You feeling better, baby?" Ashton asked, making me pull my head back,

"Yeah. It just lasts a couple of hours then goes away" I shrugged,

"Well, Cal and Grace are coming over. If you start to feel bad let me know" Ashton told me. I nodded and moved off of him.

****

When Grace and Calum arrived, Ashton and Calum went to the backyard while Grace and I sat in the kitchen. Apparently Ashton had told them that I have a weird sickness that only lasts a couple of hours every day,

"When do you usually feel bad?" Grace asked,

"Morning. But at night I get a little nauseous" I sighed. Grace furrowed her eyebrows then her eyes went wide,

"Uh, when was your last period?" She asked,

"Like a month ago. I was supposed to start a couple of weeks ago" I shrugged, then it hit me,

"Han, you might be-" Grace nodded as I cut her off,

"Pregnant" I finished, "I might be fucking pregnant"

I started freaking out and Grace had to calm me down,

"Deep breaths" she instructed as my breathing returned normal, "Why don't we go to the store and get a couple of tests and find out?" She suggested,

"No. I'd rather do this with Ash so we're on the same page" I sighed. Ashton and I always said if we had a scare, we'd do it together.

"Let me grab Cal and we will leave and you and Ash can talk" she told me. I sighed but nodded and followed her to the backyard.

"Cal, let's get going. I think Hannah's starting to feel bad" Grace announced as I settled next to Ashton and leaned into him,

"Oh yeah. We'll get out of your hair" Calum nodded,

"We'll hang out soon" Ashton smiled.

Ashton and I walked inside after Cal and Grace left. I sat down on the couch and Ashton cautiously sat on the coffee table in front of me,

"What's wrong?" he asked with concern. I didn't answer. I just started to cry. Ashton rushed forward and wrapped his arms around me. I wrapped mine around his middle and pressed my face into his chest,

"Whatever is bothering you is okay. Can you just tell me what's up?" he pleaded, pulling me back from him so he could see my face.

"I think I'm pregnant" I bawled. Ashton was shocked. His eyes went wide and his mouth dropped.

"I'm sorry" I cried,

"Stop. Do not say sorry. This isn't anything you need to be sorry for" he told me and grabbed my hands, "We will be okay no matter what it is" he paused,

"Look, let's go grab dinner then we will go to the store, grab some tests, then come home and see what happens," he told me. I nodded and hugged him tightly.

****

As we sat at dinner, I was a nervous wreck. I was just thinking about everything. I mean, Ashton and I literally just got engaged. Of course, we've talked about kids but not for at least a year after we get married and the band slows down a bit.

"Baby, you have to calm down" Ashton grabbed my hand on the table, "It's okay. I am not mad" he promised,

"I know. I'm just scared" I sighed. Ashton lifted my hand and kissed it,

"Can I ask what makes you think you're pregnant?" he questioned, genuinely concerned.

"I mean, I've been sick every morning, I'm constantly nauseous and I've got a constant headache. I've gained a little weight. And, I missed my period. I didn't even realize it until Grace said something" I answered,

"I promise it's okay. It's kinda exciting" Ashton smiled. I laughed a little and smiled back.

****

Ashton paid for our dinner and we went to the store. I held his hand tightly as we walked in and to the aisle. We looked at our options and grabbed the one that said the words 'pregnant' or 'not pregnant'.

"Let's check out then we will head home," Ashton told me and pressed a kiss to my head.

****

As soon as we got home, Ashton and I both changed into comfy clothes and we went into the bathroom. I peed on the three sticks then we set the timer and waited.

Ashton and I were on the bathroom floor, leaned back against the vanity. I was clutching his hand like it was my lifeline,

"You know, I may be a little sad if you're not pregnant" Ashton chuckled,

"I think I might be too" I admitted. I'm conflicted with emotions. I know I'll be happy if it's positive but I also know I might be happy if it's negative.

The timer on Ashton's phone went off and my heart began to race. Both of us stood and looked down at the three tests,

"Oh my god" Ashton grinned and looked at me, tears in his eyes, "You're pregnant"
