Thanks for the response, guys! Here's the next chapter! x
I listened to the Hot Tunes report the following day after the awards. I higher the volume when I heard something which peaked my interest.
"It seems as if Nate likes to put a ring on his problems. It's no secret that the 26 year old-"
"What are you watching?"
I groaned and turned to face Ruby, who sat next to me.
"Hot Tunes. Now, shh!" I hissed, increasing the volume again.
"Stay tuned, this was Hot Tune's morning report. We'll be right back, after the break." The reporter grinned, dazzlingly.
"Seriously?!" I yell at the TV.
"What?" Ruby asked, turning the TV off.
"Why did they say that 'Nate likes to put a ring on his problems'?" I asked her. Her eyes widened as she raised an eyebrow.
"Oh! Your manager explained that from your head injury, you had amnesia. And Nate told Hot Tunes that you having amnesia wouldn't stop him from loving you." Ruby rushed.
"Oh. Okay." I smiled, standing up. "He's so sweet, isn't he? And so patient." I said, as we went into the kitchen.
"Where is he, anyway?" she asked.
"Has to work on his album." I mumbled, vile suddenly coming up my throat. I threw up in the sink and breathed heavily as Ruby wiped my hair back.
"Are you okay?" she asked, concerned and patting my back.
"It might be just a stomach bug. Don't worry, hun." I said, waving her off. Wrong idea as I threw up again, heaving. "Call my doctor. Her number is on the blue note on the fridge."
"Okay!" Ruby breathed, rushing to get her phone.
I turned on the tap and washed my face with water. I rinsed my mouth of the acid and breathed heavily.
"She says that you could go to her now. I'll-I'll drive!" Ruby said, helping me get into my car. "Do you need your phone? Bag?"
"Just get them." I muttered, closing my eyes.
...
"Well, Mrs Gray..." Dr Wallace mumbled, checking my notes. I had peed into a cup for her and took blood tests. What else now?!
"Well...?" I asked, anxiety rushing through my body.
She turned and grinned at me, showing me what was written on my notes. "You're pregnant."
I gasped as I shook my head. "No... I can't be... How-? How far?" I breathed out.
"Three months. You're not showing; must have a nice figure." she joked. "Your morning sickness must have started today. Have you felt nausea, tiredness or faint lately?"
"Yes but I thought that was because of my amnesia?" I mumbled.
"Well yes, they're an underlying reason but it was also because you are pregnant."
"Oh my God! Oh my God!" I yelled, placing a hand on my stomach. "Is there really a peanut inside of me?" I asked, making her laugh.
"Yes, honey!" she grinned. "Want to see baby?"
"I-uh... Guess." I replied.
After everything was set up, she placed gel onto my stomach and started looking around for my baby with that stick of hers.
"Can you see it?" I asked quietly.
"Yeah, right here." she points to the middle of the sonogram screen where I could just see a small peanut sized shape.
"Wow. That's incredible..." I mumbled.
"I'll give you information on midwives and the likes as you get cleaned up. I'll also get you some pictures so you can show Nate."
I simply nodded as I continued to look at my baby. Our baby. A little Nate. A little Caitlyn. Wow...
Sorry it's short ;( x
