A/N: So I'm back from Crete. And the thing that I did when I went on summer vacation (to the UK) happened this time too, just not on my laptop; I think I wrote about four stories while tanning at the swimming pool. They might be a bit weird and everything... well, you'll see them show up eventually anyway. This story is Angsty because I was feeling like it, ha!
Also, 150th story! Yay me!
Disclaimer: Nothing is mine.
'Affected'
Chapter One
The worst case scenario happened - she got pregnant. Her whole body hurt with the knowledge, it wasn't how she had imagined to react when finding out she would be a mother.
.
"I'm pregnant," she whispered. Marcus smiled, but only she could see it was a forced one. She was skilled at seeing through people's masks.
"That's great, baby."
Except it wasn't.
.
She stopped working after five months, she could hardly move any longer. The only good thing was that he seemed to change his ideas about fatherhood a bit. Sometimes, he would even sit down next to her and rest his head on her belly, listening to their yet unborn child.
.
He had broken up with her. It turned out that he wasn't quite ready to be a father. By that time, the only thing she did was cry and pay weekly visits to the hospital.
.
When the contractions started, she found that the only person she could call for this was Jane.
"Teresa?"
"It's started."
He didn't miss a beat when he spoke, which was even before she had finished talking. "Stay where you are, I'm on my way."
.
Only Marcus was allowed to be in the room, seeing as he was the father. He could only admire their little boy, talk about how this came from her and that from him. If only she could still trust him.
A/N: So, that's the start! The rest of this story will be in this format as well, only some paragraphs will be longer than others. Eventually, it will get more Angsty followed by some less Angsty stuff. I hope I sparked your interest, and hopefully you'll let me show you the rest of this piece!
