Leo was finishing up some work when he heard a violent pounding on the door. He opened the door to see Elsa staring at him with wide eyes. Eyes that almost looked...terrified.
"Leo we have to get married."
"What!" Leo coughed out. The abrupt announcement took him by surprise. "Elsa, not that I don't love you or anything, because I do, but don't you think it's a little early for that?"
Elsa didn't respond. Instead she took a seat in his perfectly carved wooden chairs and stared out into space. "What have I done" she whispered to herself.
Leo didn't hear her, so he obliviously made some tea and brought it to her. He sat down in the chair beside her, turning it so that they were facing each other. He sighed.
"Elsa. Just talk to me, I'm sure I can help you with whatever is on your mind." He placed his hand on Elsa's leg, but she immediately stiffened.
She looked up at him, tears in her eyes. "Leo I don't know what to do. I'm scared" she muttered.
"Well why don't you try telling me what's wrong. Maybe I can help Elsa"
"No, you can't. No one can!" Her voice was thick with despair, and Leo's heart crashed into a million pieces.
Elsa didn't know how to tell Leo. He was so innocent. He was living a perfectly happy life and she ruined it.
"Elsa please" Leo whispered.
Elsa took a deep breath. "Leo. I...I...uhmm...I'm uh," Elsa broke down into a cascade of tears.
Leo put his arms around her and pulled her in tight.
"It's okay. You can tell me. Just trust me"
Elsa pulled away from the embrace and stared at Leo. He was wearing a white T-Shirt and a red flannel that grabbed at his burly was dressed so simple. He lead such a simple life. And Elsa was about to change that with two simple words.
Leo could tell Elsa was scared to tell him what she was about to say. She stood up and started pacing the room. She was muttering to herself, but Leo couldn't catch what she was saying. She finally stopped and turned towards him.
"Leo, I'm pregnant"
BOOM! BABY BOMB hopefully more work to come soon :)
