Six Becomes Three (Sequel to Six People, Three Couples, One Story)

Wait A Minute

Jiselle's POV:

Lyndsey ay and I got in my car and headed to the Walgreen's that was just down the road from her house. I pulled out of the driveway and turned right when Lyndsey asked, "Do you know where you are going?"

I turned to her with my eyebrow raised. Did she know who she was talking to? I am a queen when it comes to directions. I know exactly where I am going.

"Yes," I replied.

"Oh yeah, that's right, I forgot who I was with for a second." Lyndsey chuckled.

Silence fell inside the vehicle. There was music playing in the background. I looked over at Lyndsey for a split second so I wouldn't wreck the car. She was staring out the window while she fiddled with her fingers. I suspected that she was nervous or scared. 

"You doing alright?" I asked. 

"I'm not sure," She answered. "I don't know what to think at the moment."

I smiled and reached for her hand, holding it as I drove. When we got to the Walgreen's, I told her to stay in the car while I went inside to buy a pregnancy test. I didn't want Lyndsey to be caught by paparazzi so I thought it would be best to take precautions. Niall doesn't need to find out from the paparazzi. He should find out from Lyndsey if she is indeed pregnant. 

When I returned to the car, I gently handed Lyndsey the box so she could start reading the instructions. We were headed back to her house when she asked, "This is a good and reliable brand?"

"Yeah!" I assured. "That was the test I used to find out if I was pregnant."

When we got back to the house, Lyndsey wasted no time to take the test. I waited in the kitchen, sipping on her glass of wine, as I waited for her to come out of the bathroom. She came out of the bathroom, holding the pregnancy test in her hand. 

"What does it say?" 

"I'm still waiting for the result."

I set down the wine glass and grabbed the wine bottle by its neck, raising it to my lips and chugged the liquid until the bottle was empty. Lyndsey stared at the pregnancy test waiting desperately for the results. 

"Oh my God!" Lyndsey mumbled. 

"What? What does it say?"

She looked up from the pregnancy test, looking absolutely flabbergasted. I walked over to her, glancing over her shoulder. The pregnancy test read, Pregnant. 

Lyndsey is pregnant!

"Oh my God, Lyndsey, you're pregnant!" I shouted, jumping up and down. "I'm gonna be an aunt!"

I grabbed my cell phone from my purse and began Facetiming Sara. Only three rings went by before Sara answered. 

"Sara, you are not going to believe this," I began. "Lyndsey is pregnant!"

"What? No, she is not? Where is she?" Sara expressed through the phone. 

I turned my camera around so Sara could see Lyndsey. 

"Lyndsey, how do you feel?" Sara inquired. 

Lyndsey sat down at the end of the counter, in one of the stools. Tears built up in her eyes before they trickled down her cheeks. I couldn't tell if she was happy or sad. 

"I can't believe I am pregnant!" Lyndsey yelled happily. 

The three of us spent the next few minutes talking about Lyndsey's pregnancy. Sara and I wasted no time planning a baby shower while Lyndsey started planning the nursery. 

"Wait a minute," I paused. "How are you going to tell Niall?"

We just now realized that Lyndsey had to share this exciting news with Niall. Lyndsey placed her hand on her forehead and mumbled, "I have no idea!"
