This is my first try at a Pregnancy story. Just a little background info. Mia and Nick have been in a serious relationship for a couple year. Joe and Mia are best friends for life. Just a heads up Nick doesn't come in to this till the end of the chapter. I rated this story 'PG-13' just in case, for later chapters. You just don't know where the story might lead.
Chapter 1
This can't be real, I am supposed to be the responsible one. Now I'm sitting on the floor of the bathroom staring at the little stick that would change my life forever. This just cant be right, it was only one night. 'One night of pure ecstasy, the best night I will ever have. The kind of night one can only dream of.' Wait…What am I thinking it was a mistake! I scolded myself. I need to take another one. I thought as I scrambled up off the floor and put the stick with the other four identical sticks in a line on the floor. I grabbed the last stick out of the box.
"Ok now you better not lie to me like the others." I say to the stick a little hysterically. I pace the floor waiting for the results. After what seems like an hour I pick up the little stick. My eyes start fill as I look down at the little stick in my hands. (PREGNANT) As soon as I see what it say I collapse.
"No I cant be pregnant! I'm only 19 I have my whole future ahead of me. Oh god what am I going to tell Nick. He is going to hate me forever." I say through the sobs that have over taken me.
'Bang!' 'Bang!' 'Bang!' "Mia are you ok in there? I thought I heard crying. Nick called, he said he tried you three times but you didn't pick up. He asked me to check on you after you told him you think you have the flue. Is that why you have been throwing up every morning? Anyway Nick asked me to have you call him as ASAP. He was just getting ready to leave his hotel to head to the studio for his interview on Jimmy Fallen." Joe says.
"I'm fine Joe, thanks for checking." I say trying to sound like I haven't been crying. I don't succeed my voice break in the middle..
"Mia you don't sound fine." Joe says turning the handle. OH NO I FORGOT TO LOCK IT! Its not like I was expecting anyone to come in when I was home alone. My mom is always off dating one guy or another. She is a flight attendant so she would show up with a strange guy at all hours of the night. I scramble trying to get to the door before he opens it. To late Joe opens the door to see me sitting on the floor with bright red eyes. I quickly put my hand behind my back so he doesn't see what I'm holding.
"Oh Mia I know you miss him, he will be back before you know." Joe says pulling me into a hug. I relax into him. Joe is one of my best friends, we have been friends for at least ten years. He is always there for me. We tried dating once but it was just awkward. We both knew we were better off friends. After that Joe introduced me to Nick and we just hit it off. We have been dating for almost two years now. I started to sob into Joe's chest as he rocked me back and forth trying to sooth me.
"Mia are you ok?" Joe says starting to pull back. I shake my head and hold onto him for dear life. "Mia how about you tell me what's really wrong. This is a strange reaction for just missing Nick. Specially when you wouldn't even answer his calls."
"I didn't have my phone on me. I just really miss him." I say not looking Joe in the eyes. I am a horrible liar but its easier when I don't look the person straight in the eyes. Joe sits back on his heels as I put my hands in my lap. I look down at my hands in my lap. I gasp forgetting that I have the test in my hand. I throw my hand behind my back and look at Joe. I hope he didn't see the test. Joe is staring at something on the floor next to him. Oh no I forgot about the tests on the floor.
"Mia…" Joe says as his face pales. He picks up the test and examines it. Then he picks up all the others.
"Joe I.. I…." I put my head in my hands and start sobbing again. After about five minutes Joe picks me up and takes me to my bed.
"Nick?" Is all Joe says. I nod my head unable to speak.
"We need to call Nick." Joe says pulling his phone out of his pocket.
"No we cant tell him he is going to hate me." I say but my voice cracks on 'hate'.
"Mia I don't know how he is going to react but I know he couldn't hate you. He loves you and always will that's why he deserves to know." Joe says while he rubs my back.
"Can we wait till he gets home?"
"I don't."
"Joe please I just cant tell him over the phone." I say interrupting him.
"Fine but we have to make a dr.'s appointment." I nod.
After I get off the phone with the dr.'s office Joe comes in with my cell phone. Its ringing I take it and look to see who is calling even though I already know. My face pales as I see Nick's picture on the screen. I sigh and answer it.
"Hello?"
"Oh Mia thank god I have been trying to get a hold of you all day. Are you ok? Did you go to the dr. to see if its really the flue?" I smile he always worries to much about me.
"Shhh, I'm um… ok." I say looking at Joe for help as my eyes fill up again. He goes behind me to rub my back the way he knows will calm me down. I clear my throat. "I'm doing better now that you sent Joe to find me. I have had a hard morning. Joe helped me with some stuff then I called the dr. to set an appointment."
"Oh no, was it your mom again. Is she giving you a hard time. I told you, you are more than welcome to go to our house. My mom knows how your mom is and she said there is always room for you. You can go over and crash in my bed." Nick says then stops as the thoughts fill his head from the last time Mia was in his bed. I blush as I remember that night. I shake my head trying to clear it.
"It wasn't my mom, I haven't seen her all weekend. I got sick again this morning."
"Oh baby I'm sorry. I wish I was there to help you."
"Me too." I say then the tears start flowing.
"I miss you so much. I will be on the first flight home."
"No Nick you need to finish up everything you need to do in NY. If you come home know you will just have to leave me again."
"Baby don't cry! I am done with everything, I will be home before tomorrow morning I promise." He says his voice full with worry. I hear someone talking in the background. "Baby I have to go I love you and I will see you within 24 hours."
"I love you too." I say then he hangs up. I just sit there for a minute staring at the counter as my hands unconsciously fall to my still flat stomach.
"Lets go get you something to eat." Joe says taking my hand. We go to the local diner. After we are done eating. Or in my case scooting food around my plate Joe takes me home. As soon as I get to my bed I crash. I am completely exhausted.
I wake up to Nick climbing into my bed and cuddling up behind me. This isn't strange he comes over and sleeps with me when ever my mom is gone. I turn around to face him forgetting for the moment that I am keeping something huge from him. I'm just happy to have him here with me. I really missed him while he was gone for two weeks.
"Hi baby." Nick says leaning over and kissing me. I pull back and press my forehead to his.
"I missed you tones." I say as my eyes fill up to the brim.
"Shhh baby its ok I'm here now." He says leaning in and kissing me, I don't kiss him back. I feel so guilty, I don't deserve him. I turn around and stare at my closet. My hands resting on my stomach. 'I'm sorry baby you deserve to have a good strong mommy. I am already letting you down.' I think to my baby as tears roll down my cheeks. Nick's arms wrap around me.
"Did I do something wrong?" Nick asks confused. I shake my head not wanting to talk and let him know I'm crying. After a couple minutes he sighs and gets up. I turn to see where he is going. I can only see his outline in the light from the window. He goes out into the hall and I hear the bathroom door open. I jump up off my bed, oh my god did I pick up the tests? I turn on my light and see the tests on my night stand. I run over and push them into a drawer. I sit on the bed and wait for Nick to come back in. I need to tell him sorry, I will tell him later I promise myself. I wait ten minutes but I don't hear any noise from the bathroom. I walk over and knock on the door.
"Nick?" Complete silence. "Nick!" I say louder. He opens the door with a box in his hand. I look at it then realize it's the box from the tests. I grab his hand and take him to my room. "Ok Nick I was hopping to tell you all this later." I say as the tears start streaming down my face. I pull out the test and show him.
