A Stephanie plum fan fiction
Prologue
THE cold porcelain of the bathroom sink pressed against my forehead as i leaned against it, my stomach still heaving from its third early-morning upset in as many days. I dragged air into lungs starved by the unpleasant moments spent bent over the sink.
After a minute of doing nothing but breathe, i tentatively brought my body erect. A small twinge of nausea hit me, but I was able to control it. Okay, as unpleasant as this new early morning ritual had become, i had something even less pleasant to perform. i stared at the small white stick with all the wariness i would feel for a snake found curled around the base of the commode.
Ranger had been fanatical about using birth control. So I'd convinced myself one late period didn't mean anything, until i woke up heaving three days ago. At first I'd thought i had the flu, sure there could be no possibility i was pregnant.
i still didn't understand how this could be possible, but i had too many symptoms to deny. my breasts were tender. i was tired all the time. And i was feeling very moody.
i forced myself to do what was necessary for the pregnancy test. Ten minutes later the world went white around the edges as i stared at the blue line confirming I carried the child of Ranger Manoso.
