Star Crossed

"Is it done?" Sidney asked as I came out of the bathroom.

"it doesn't work that fast" I laughed as I sat down next to him on the hotel bed. Sidney reached over and grabbed my hand holding it in both of his. I sighed nervously anticipating the results of the pregnancy test I just took.

I wasn't sure if I wanted a positive. were James and I ready for another baby? What would he say when I told him? How would Jake react? There were just way to many questions coming along with this. And I was only going to get one simple answer. One line, or two. But then again, another baby wouldn't be so bad would it? Jake would have someone to play with, someone who could be there for him in a way James and I couldn't be. But James and I always said we wanted one child. Only one. We said we were done after Jake. Maybe that wasn't so true.

I was was weighing the scales in my head, trying to figure out which one seemed better, but either way, I knew I couldn't change the outcome of the small test.

"you're going to be fine" Sidney said pushing a piece of hair behind my ear, seeing the look of worry on my face.

"I hope so" I said sighing anxiously.

"Worst that could happen is he won't take it well," Sidney said pausing, "and then I'll be here for you, after I beat him up, and make sure you never have to see him again"

I laughed at Sidney, thanking him on the inside for caring so much.

"how long do we have to wait?" Sidney said in response to my silence.

"2 minutes" I said simply, millions of thoughts runnin through my head, some good and some bad.

"longest 2 minutes of my life" I said laughing, looking down at my lap.

"so what 2 kids now?" He said smiling.

"well have to see" I said referring to the test waiting inside the bathroom on the counter.

"you're lucky" he laughed sadly.

"you'll find someone eventually" I said trying to cheer him up. "Someone amazing"

Sidney just nodded in response. I checked the time, seeing it had been 2 minutes, mostly filled with silence.

I slowly stood up and walked towards the bathroom, Sidney following closely behind.

i picked up the test with my eyes closed.

nervously opening them to see just what I was expecting.

2 pink lines.

Not faint pink, but a dark pink.

2 of the most life changing lines.

2 lines staring back at me, indicating one of the biggest moments in My life would be happening in just 9 months.

there was one thing these 2 lines couldn't tell me.

how would James take this?
