Flashback
Five weeks. That was it.
Austin and Gabriella dated, a lot.
Then, with a small amount of surprise, Austin proposed.
Gabriella, with a whole lot more surprise, accepted.
So here they are, lying side by side in Austin's bed. Their chests rising and falling without a sound.
Gabriella awoke first. For a brief moment, she forgot where she was.
Then, glancing to her side, remembered.
She was about to roll to her other side, and reassume sleeping, when a wave of nausea overcame her body.
She quietly, but quickly, slid out of the bed and hustled to the bathroom, which was inconveniently placed down the hall.
When she finally got in the bathroom, she rushed to the toilet and threw up. Several times.
Gabriella's face had turned pale, as she sat herself on the blue rug, and sat back against the wall.
She slowly breathed, tying to rid herself of this aweful feeling.
Once she opened her tightly closed eyes, and the pain left, she glanced at the awkwardly placed calendar, May 6th.
" That's the fifth time this month I've done that…to make things even better…I'm late."
She thought to herself.
As soon as she regained enough strength to stand, she slowly turned on the shower. She carefully stepped in, and tried to wash away her memories.
She failed.

" Gabriella Montez?" The soft voice of the nurse asked.
" That's me." Gabriella replied as she stood up out of the chair she was sitting on in the waiting room.
The nurse led Gabriella to a small open room.
" Ok, Gabriella, what brings you here today?"
Gabriella looked down and slowly exhaled, " I think I might be pregnant."
The nurse stopped writing in her patient chart, and looked at Gabriella.
" Oh. Well…why don't we confirm it then."
Gabriella nodded her head as the nurse whisked out of the room.
She returned soon after with a cup.
" Now, I'm assuming you know what you do with this?" The nurse brightly asked.
Again, Gabriella just nodded.
---------
Gabriella returned to her room at the doctor's office.
Her face felt flushed and she had a headache.
She had only been sitting there, maybe two minutes, when there was a knock at the door.
" Hello Gabriella. My name's Dr. Mitchell." The woman smiled.
Gabriella just sat there.
" So, when did you first suspect you were pregnant?"
Gabriella swallowed hard, " I…um…well, probably a week after I skipped my period."
"Well, you were right, I might add. We won't know how far along you are until you set up and appointment with one of our obstetrician/gynecologists. But, we'll worry about that later."
The doctor continued asking questions and writing down Gabriella's answers.
" So, are you having any consistent problems? Frequent headaches, nausea?"
Gabriella nodded her head, " Yes, I've had morning sickness through the past few days, and just recently my head has been hurting."
Dr. Mitchell nodded her head, " Ok, the morning sickness is natural, and unfortunately, I can't really do anything about it. I'm more worried about the headaches, how often are you having them?"
Gabriella thought, " Well…probably since about, last Wednesday."
Dr. Mitchell nodded, " Have you been stressed lately? Or, maybe…tired? Um…have you been exercising more?" She paused and waited for Gabriella's response.
" Well…I have been stressed…a little." Gabriella replied guiltily.
Dr. Mitchell smiled, " Well, that's not good for the baby now is it?"
Gabriella looked down and shook her head.
" I want you to relax, ok? That will be your medicine, along with some prenatal vitamins."
Gabriella looked up and nodded at the doctor.
" Can you do that for me?" Dr. Mitchell asked, " Just, try to stay calm, and breathe. That way both of you will be ok."
Gabriella nodded, and Dr. Mitchell escorted her out.
" So, I'll see you next month, alright!"
" Ok, thank you so much." Gabriella replied with as much happiness she could muster up.
Gabriella walked silently out of the building and carefully got into her car.
She laid her head back against her seat and closed her eyes.
" Why me?"
