Sorry this chapter is short...
Chapter 33
Ryan stirred from his sleep; he was awakened by Marissa, who was rushing around the apartment cooking and cleaning, trying to make the apartment presentable for Ryan. Marissa caught a glimpse of Ryan's eyes wide open, and walked over to say good morning.
"Hey! Good Morning. You feel any better?" Marissa asked, kissing him on the cheek.
"I'm okay I guess...Pretty sore actually. Do you mind getting me a glass of water?" He asked, not wanting to sound to demanding.
"Oh...Of course. I'll be right back." Marissa said. She walked through the swinging door into the kitchen. She came back with the glass of water and a few Advil.
"There ya go." Marissa said to him, flipping on the T.V. and handing him the remote.
"Thanks babe" Ryan responded.
Marissa sat, watching the news with Ryan for a few minutes. It was pretty quiet.
"I'm gonna run to the drug store...Get a few things. Can I get you something for the soreness that might work better than Advil?" she suggested.
"I'm okay." Ryan said, kissing her, before she grabbed her jacket and purse.
"Love ya!" she exclaimed.
"Love you too!" he yelled, as she shut the door.
Marissa jumped into Ryan's Lincoln Navigator. The car she had been driving was Tad's, and now that he was gone, she no longer had a car. She turned the ignition, and headed to the local drug store. She pulled up, and got out of the car.
She walked down a few isles picking up a few needy things, makeup and toiletries. Then she came to the isle she was looking for. She starred at all the different boxes. She wondered which one would be the best. Picking up a reliable and cheap one, she walked to the cashier with her purchases.
"That will be $32.76" The cashier said to her. She whipped out her debit card, paid for her things, and then left hastily.
She arrived back home only about an hour later from when she had first left. Ryan was asleep on the couch, the T.V. was still on. She figured this would be the best time to do it.
She placed the bags on the kitchen counter, and removed the pregnancy test she had bought. Being a little serene, she quietly walked to the ensuite bathroom that was adjoined to her room. She locked the door behind her, and sat down on the toilet seat.
She starred blankly at the box for a few minutes, and then realized she would have to do it sooner or later.
Moments later, she was sitting against the bathroom wall. The beeper went, and that meant, it was time to check the test. At first she hesitated. A part of her wanted it to be positive and another part wanted it to be negative. But deep down she knew no matter what the situation...Ryan would help her get through all this.
She reached for the tester, and looked for 2 blue stripes, that would indicate wither or not she was pregnant.
A big grin came across Marissa's face...
