Jac just made it to the bathroom, third time this week, she spent her mornings and most the night hunched over the toliet. She couldn't understand why she was constantly bring up the whole content of her stomach. It's not like she was unwell, she was so careful with germs. Jac hardly got ill..

Jac's phone started to ring, she dragged herself away from the toliet and managed to catch the call before it ended.

'Morning you' Joseph said

The familar voice had cheered Jac up a tad, she stated to lighten up and smile

'I missed you joe'

'I miss you too angel, sorry i wasn't there when you woke up. Hanssen wanted me to prep for a hip replacement'

' Thats fine, was a bit worried when i woke up, but i wasn't really concentrating' Jac's voice started to sound frail.

'Why whats wrong?, you still throwing up?' Joseph asked, he started to worry..

'Oh yes'

'third time this week, and second time since last night'

'Jac your not..'

Before Joseph could finish this sentence Jac interupted ' no im not pregnant'

'Oh okay, whatever you say! Speak to you later, i love you'

' i love you too' when Jac said these words it felt right.. it felt perfect.

Jac had thought about the possibilty of her being pregnant, but she blocked it out and put it at the back of her head. She couldn't be pregnant, just because she was being sick in the morning doesn't mean shes pregnant..does it?

Once again Jac found herself over the toilet ' ive had enough of this' she thought. She picked up her phone and dialled Hanssen, just her luck no answer.

' Hanssen, its Jac. Im afraid i'm not going to be in today, i've been up half the night bring up my stomach.. ill be back tomorrow' Jac voice was weak.

Jac rested the whole day, she didn't bother to dress up instead. She dressed down in her pj's and dressing gown. She spent most of the day on the sofa watching trashy american programmes, just waiting for something exciting to happen. A car door slamming made Jac bite her lip, a part of her thought it could be Faye coming round for round two. She sat there frozen waiting for that knock on the door but instead the sound of a key in the lock send a wave of relief throughout Jac.

Joseph walked through Jac's recently decorated kitchen, threw his bag down and took of his jacket. He carried n walking around the house untill he got to the lounge were Jac was laid.

' Have you collected the rest of your things?' jac asked.

' i was just on my way round to hers now when i thought i'd stop by and see how you are'

' im much better now, thank god'

Joseph bent over and kissed Jac's forehead, their heads were resting on each others, she ran her fingers through his hair and down to this shoulders were she pulled him in for another kiss. Joseph moved the blanket which was covering jac's legs and sat next to her with his arms open. Jac knew what this ment, she drew herself closer and nestled her frail body within his. She felt Joseph's warm fingers stroking her back. This sent Jac into a small sleep.

Jac could feel that uneasy sickness feeling re-appearing in he stomach, she thrw of the blanket and made a dash for the toilet, once again, her head was sweating and not to mention it was spinning, she could feel another wave of sickness about to make an appearance. She had totally forgotten about Joseph who at this point was making his way up stairs with a pint of water. He saw Jac hunched over, it broke his heart to see how frail and fragile Jac was.

' Here drink this' Joseph passed heer the water.

'Thanks Jose, suppose its not a pretty sight eh? Seeing me like this..'

'Hay don't think like that Jac, your beautiful ..no matter what you feel like you will always be beautiful.. and your all mine'

Kac smiled and raised her arms for Joseph to help her up. Although she couldn't bare to think that a small chance of her could pregnant she knelt down to the bathroom cabinet and pulled out a pregnancy test.

' Guess its now or never'

'Jac if its..' He couldn't get the wordds out ' you know, postive i will behind you every step of the way'

These two minutes felt like a life time. Jac was sat on the edge of the bed with her head in her hands while Joseph was rubbing her back. If she was pregnant how would she explain it to every at work?, she wouldn't be able to hide it for that long, how would she cope? Jac lived in a one bedroom studio, how would she fit in all the babies essentials?

'Jac its time'

Jac sprung up and walked over to the test, she held her hand over the marking and rejoined Joseph on the bed. She took away her hand and peered down at the test..Joseph and Jac both looked at each other.. Jac then put her head in his shoulder and started to silently cry. Joseph put both his arms around a vulnerable Jac and held her tight.

' Everythings going to be OK Jac, i promise..'
