Going for Gold
The Surprise is Out
KATIE POV
Jamie and I haven’t talked about the possibility of me being pregnant since last week when Tyler said it. We’ve just gone on our normal routine, I’ve been too scared to take a pregnancy test so I have been avoiding it for the past week hoping that my period is just late which still hasn’t come yet, causing me to jump back into reality Megan went on “Kat, you should totally try on this on. Red is your color”
“Oh uh sure” I mumbled taking the dress out of her hands
“Okay lets go try these on” Megan smiled as we walked into the dressing room “You excited for the Olympics?”
“Yeah it’ll be cool” I lied
Once the dressing room door shut, I knew Megan knew something was up she had the look on her face, the “I know somethings wrong and you’re gonna talk about it whether you like it or not” face. I took off my jeans and sweater and slipped into the first dress. Looking in the mirror i felt flawless I have never felt so good, the dress highlighted all my curves in the right areas then I looked down at my stomach, and immediately took it off. “Katie what's wrong?” Megan questioned
“Nothing” I lied again “Everythings fine”
“Cut the shit” Megan announced “Something is wrong and I can see it in your face. Tell me what's wrong now” She demanded
I sat on the bench inside the dressing room next to Megan and started to cry “I-I might be pregnant. Jamie and I had sex one night and we forgot a condom and it just happened I guess”
“Holy shit” Megan spoke shockingly wrapping her arms around me “Did you take a test?”
“I’m too scared to take one because what if i am” I admitted “What if I am pregnant and Jamie ends our relationship and forgets about me and our possible kid? God i am such a fucking idiot”
“Are you kidding me Kat?” Megan went on “He would never leave you in a million years, like he always says he loves you to the moon and back and when someone loves you that much they never just walk out when things get tough, they stay with you to figure things out. However you still need to take the test to find out if you are pregnant or not and then we can figure the rest from there okay?”
“I’m just scared about all this Meggy. God i am lucky to have you” I smiled faintly wiping the tears off my face “I really loved that dress on me though”
“Then get it” Megan smiled “And god forbid you are pregnant we will just get the dress in the next size up. Go get dressed and we will run to CVS”
When we entered CVS I could feel all the nerves rush to my heart all at once, was this all really happening to me right now? Im twenty three I haven’t even graduated college for god sakes. We reached the aisle that carried the pregnancy test I stood frozen unable to reach for the pack or speak. “I’ll get it don’t worry” Megan softly spoke as she reached for the pack “Okay lets go” we reached the checkout line still unable to speak to Megan I nodded yes to her as the boy scanned the pack.
“Katie, you’re gonna have to speak at some point” Megan said concerned walking to the car “Sooner than later, much rather be sooner”
Buckling my seatbelt I was finally able to speak “Good thing I have to pee”
“Now at least you don’t have to chug a bottle of water” Megan asked concerned “Will Jamie be home?”
“No the boys have practice till one” I answered
“Okay good” Megan went on “Just incase you have a major freak out”
I couldn’t even snap back at her because it was true, if I wasn’t pregnant I would freak out over the fact that I thought I was pregnant and I’d freak if I was pregnant because well its pretty obvious why I would freak out. The drive from the CVS to the apartment building seemed quicker than usual causing my heart to beat as fast. Going up the elevator made my heart beat a hundred times faster. Was this all really happening?
“Alright you ready?” Megan asked as I opened up the apartment door
“More ready than ever” I lied gripping tightly onto the box making my way towards the bathroom “I’ll be back”
“Katie you’re going to get dizzy if you keep pacing back and forth” Megan laughed “Please sit down before you drive me insane”
“I can’t sit” I shouted “I can’t stay still. This is more nerve racking than the time I thought I emailed that photoshopped picture of our tenth grade english teacher to the entire student body, how much longer do I have to wait”
“You have a minute left” Megan breathed jumping up from her seat and cupping my face “Katie look at me this is all going to work out one way or another. And which ever way it works out, I’ll be there to help you through out it all. I’m going to go grab the test and we can find out together okay?” She ran off to the bathroom shortly returning gripping the test in one hand and the box in the other sitting right next to me on the couch “Ready?”
“Ready” I breathed slowly taking the test out of her hand and turning it over revealing two pink lines “Wha-What does two pink lines mean?”
Megan rapidly turned over the box and began to scan the back where the instructions were “Katie, you’re uh pregnant” before I could even react the door slammed open with laughter from Tyler and Jamie
“Look who's here” Tyler said in a disgusted sarcastic tone “Coach let us get out of practice early”
“Tyler lets go lunch” Megan said with wide eyes
“I haven’t even showered Meggy” Tyler laughed shortly realizing what I was holding “Yeah lets go”
“Bye Katie” They both hollered running out the door and quickly slamming it shut
“That was weird” Jamie chuckled sitting next to me “What's that?” pointing to my hand that was holding the test tightly
“It's uh a pregnancy test” I admitted as tears fell down my cheeks
“What does it say?” He coughed
“Im pregnant” I cried looking up at him I searched his face for anger only to realize he wasn’t angry “I’m sorry this is happening, this is gonna fuck everything up”
“Are you positive?” He questioned grabbing my hand and squeezing it tightly as his thumb rubbed the back of my hand
Letting out a soft chuckle “Jaime, I took two test. Im pregnant. I’ll have to make a doctors appointment to finalize this”
He picked me up from the butt and placed me on his lap, staring into my eyes before leaning in kissing the tip of my toes “This isn’t gonna fuck anything up, okay yeah things are going faster than I anticipated but I love you and I wouldn’t want this crazy thing happening to me if you weren’t here. Through the good and the bad I’ll always be here right by your side, and plus it would be pretty cool to have a mini me or mini you running around”
“What about your parents” I questioned wrapping my arms around his neck still sitting in his lap “Your parents are old school”
Scratching the top of his head “Yeah, they’re gonna be pretty mad at me at first. After a little time calming them down, I know my mom will be over the moon, and now she can finally knit things for a reasoning. And my dad? I really don’t know, he has never really shown emotion towards anything. I know he is gonna ask a lot of questions about how it happened, when did we find out, boy or girl, and so on. What about your-” He quickly stopped realizing what he was about to say
“Jamie” I spoke softly
“Shit im sorry babe, I didn’t mean to” He apologized pulling me into a hug
“No not that, I think im gonna puke” I jumped up stumbling on the shoes near the couch making my way to the bathroom
TYLER POV
After Megan and I came back from lunch and running errands, Katie and Jamie were both fast asleep in bed. I plopped onto the lawn chair that sat outside on the balcony still in my gym clothes, I couldn’t get Katie out my head. When I said “Not likes shes pregnant” I was joking, never once did I think that she could of actually been pregnant for fucks sake it was the flu season. This made this harder, I could barely stare at her without drooling; I thought that if Katie and Jamie broke up maybe in some alternate universe Katie and I could try dating.. but now? That wouldn’t happen if her and I were the last two people on the earth. She only sees me as a weird older brother sort of thing, never once did she ever see me different probably. Looking out off of the balcony staring at the sunset, I remembered the time I first realized I loved her.
