I feel like absolute shit

I feel like absolute shit. I've been draped over the toilet bowl all morning and missing classes isn't my best suit. "Need anything else, Hanna?" Bailey calls through the door. Groaning I shove my head over the bowl again and hurl. Throwing up last night's Chinese food. "I'll take that as a yes" Scarlet replies, opening up the bathroom door to my bathroom suite.

Something crosses my mind and I feel dizzier than ever. "Did you two get your periods?" I groan as I lift my head and look up at them. Bailey's face goes white and I watch Scarlet's jaw drop. Fuck! Closing my eyes I wrap my arms around my knees, tears escaping. "It's okay, Han Han. Scarlet can run and get some pregnancy tests" Bailey says as she kneels next to me. Tears spill from my eyes and I nod slowly, pulling myself up and wrapping myself in Bailey's arms.

Scarlet shoots me a smile, grabbing the keys and heading out the door. "Bails, what if-." I sob. My friend watches me closely before she pulls me into my bedroom and sits on the bed with me. "You'll have to call Damon, decide what you're going to do," she says softly to me. Shit. We haven't talked in two days calling him about this would be.. Oh God.

Closing my eyes I look at Bailey, my eyes bloodshot. "Can I have some chocolate?" I whined. She giggles softly and nods heading out of the bedroom out to our kitchen. Burying my face in my hands I let more tears escape. How could this happen.. we were protected every time we.. Fuck! Boston- when he had that hockey game. The fucking hot tub. Jesus Christ.

I reopen my eyes when Bailey kneels beside me with a packet of dairy milk chocolate. Frowning I take it from her hands and shove a piece into my mouth. Turning my head towards the bedroom door I hear keys jangle at the doorway to the condo. Holding my breath I await Scarlet's return. She saunters into the bedroom and drops the bag of pregnancy tests on the bed beside me and frowns.

"If you want one of us to come in the bathroom with you" Bailey whispers. I shake my head, that's the last thing I want especially when I'm already scared. Grabbing the Walmart bag I get to my feet and disappear into the bathroom closing the door behind me. Holding my breath I take each test before shoving them back into their plastic covers. "You okay in there?" Scarlet calls through the door.

Pulling the door open to the bathroom and facing my friends. I don't even want to look at them.. I can't-. Wiping away my tears I hide my face in Bailey's large cleavage. "It's okay, Han Han. I'll check them" Scarlet smiles, kissing my head. My dark haired friend disappears into the bathroom and I watch her closely, my heart pounding. Scarlet's face turns white and her lips start trembling.

Oh, no. I avert my eyes as the tears spill from my eyes. Pulling from Bailey's arms I slump down on the floor beside my bed and bury my face in my knees letting the sobs wrack out of my body. "It's going to be okay" Scarlet reassures me. I barely hear her, all I can hear is the pounding of my heart and the sobs that escape my lips. "Bailey, to call him. Get his ass here" someone says from far away.

I can't hear a single thing anymore. My daddy always warned me to be careful he didn't want me to go through what him and my mother did.. Now here I am. Closing my eyes I cry harder and hug onto my knees. I'm pregnant. The thought makes my head spin and I can't function. I don't even know what to do with this. Oh god, oh no. Damon. The thought races through my head until I hear Bailey's voice yelling in the background. "It's important! Asshole." She yells from somewhere.

What is happening. When did everything go wrong. Sobs wrack through my body as I grip onto my knees. I feel Scarlet's arms hold onto me as I cry. This can't be happening.. not now. Bailey sits on the bed above me and all the sudden Scarlet disappears from the room. Lifting my head up I look around until my eyes find him. Damon. "What the hell is he doing here!" I scream as a sob escapes me. Damon's face fills with worry as he watches me and he has a right to be.

"Bailey called him, I told her too," Scarlet announces. I stopped listening after I saw him. "What's going on baby? Talk to me" he whispers as he kneels beside me. Baby. A baby is growing inside me. I stare up at him with bloodshot green eyes. I know my cheeks are tear stained as I watch him. "I'm- I'm.. pregnant" I sob out. Damon's face pales as he wraps his arms around me. Probably remembering the night in the Boston hot tub. Shit. I hear whispers from the bed above me as Scarlet and Bailey await Damon's response.

Damon pulls me into his lap and peppers kisses across my face in a soothing motion. "It's okay Han. I love you. I know I can love this baby" he whispers against my hair. Relaxation takes over me as I fall into his arms. He's not going to leave me. He loves me. A soft smile appears on my lips and I grab onto his shirt burying my face in his chest. I love this man more than I could possibly describe. "We'll do this together, I promise you. I'm not going anywhere" he whispers into my hair.

Laying my head in his lap I close my eyes. We can do this. "I love you, too," I mutter. Damon presses kisses to my cheeks and hands as he holds me close to him. I know he's scared but I'm much more happy that he's not going anywhere. He's here. With me. I didn't expect this. The day I agreed to tutor him. I didn't expect that so many months later a beautiful baby would be growing inside me. My baby. Our baby.
