Today was the day Zach comes back from his week-long mission. I was going to tell him something really important but I didn't know how to tell him. I held the three sticks in my hand; each one had a small pink plus on it. I told my mum, Macey, Bex and Liz first and they were thrilled (thank God!). my next task was telling Zach.
As I pondered how I was going to tell my true love, I heard the front door open and someone walk in dragging a suitcase that weighed approximately 15Kg. "Gallagher Girl? Are you hear?" I would know that voice anywhere. It was Zach. I ran downstairs and found him putting his suitcase down in the living room. He turned around when I got to the door and gave me his signature smirk. Without being fully conscious of what I was doing I ran up to him and engulfed him in a massive hug causing both of us to topple back into the couch behind him.
"Welcome back, Blackthorne Boy!" I said as leaned in to give him a long passionate kiss. We kissed passionately for 3 minutes 48 seconds before Zach broke away and said,
"Cammie, what are in your hands?" I had completely forgotten I had the three pregnancy sticks in my hands and, before I had time to answer Zach flipped me onto my back and held my hands in the air. Looking at the object I was poorly trying to conceal. I couldn't look at his reaction as I didn't know what it would be as we hadn't talked about kids; I was scared. I felt the pregnancy sticks being pulled out of my grasp. I still couldn't bring myself to look at his face. We sat there in silence for 5 seconds before Zach said quietly to himself, "We're going to have a mini me." I peeked at Zach and saw a bewildered look on his face. He obviously sensed I was watching him as he turned to face me a moment later. His face changed into an ecstatic look and I was suddenly in the air being swung around the room. "Mrs. Goode, this is one of the best things that has ever happened to me!" He kissed me on the lips then suddenly pulled back. "I've got to tell the guys!" he said before practically skipping out of the room to get his phone out of his jacket pocket which he left on the banister. I let out a sigh of relief that he had taken the news well and chuckled as I went to get myself something to snack on. I went for a banana as it was one of my go-to healthy snacks. No-sooner had I swallowed the first bite I felt sick. I rushed to the bathroom and threw up the banana and some of my breakfast. Zach rushed into the bathroom and soothingly rubbed my back as I tried to compose myself, "I guess baby doesn't like bananas." I mumbled,
"Just like me!" Zach said with a smirk. I rolled my eyes and ushered him out of the bathroom so I could clean myself up a bit.
I was going to love this baby. Zach and I were going to love our baby and be there for each other and our child forever and always.
