A knock on the door interrupts my train of thoughts.
"Jayda? What are you doing? Come out" Nikki asks from the other side of the door.
I stand up from the floor, tears still running down my face and open the door.
As soon as Nikki sees me her face falls. "It's alright Jayda, it will happen soon" She says, thinking my tears are because I am not pregnant.
I quickly shake my head "No, I um I am pregnant. I am just so happy I-" I start crying again.
I am just so happy.
Nikki quickly hugs me "I am going to be an aunt" she squeals and starts crying too.
"I am so happy for you guys. I can't believe I will be an aunt. A baby i can spoil rotten" Nikki says grinning trough the tears.
I nod "You will be a great aunt"
"Aunty Nikki, I like the sound of that" she giggles.
I giggle. "What do you think it will be?
She shrugs "Who knows, but who cares I will love him or her either"
I sigh happily "I will too"
"When will you tell Maddox?" Nikki asks.
I shrug "Probably tonight. I wanna surprise him with it"
"How?" She asks, while putting her hair in a ponytail.
"I was actually thinking of putting it in a box and say I have a present for him. Then when he opens the box the pregnancy test will be there"
"That's a great idea, I'm going to get a box and we can put like the cute little decorative colorful papers so its harder to find" with that she leaves the room and I am left there smiling like an idiot.
About 5 minutes later Nicole walks in with a dark blue gift box with a lime green bow.
"I didn't find the cute little papers but I found confetti" Nikki says dumping three bags of colorful confetti into the box.
"It's alright, confetti will work" I shrug walking to the bathroom a taking one of the pregnancy sticks. And dumping the rest of them in the trash.
"I'm nervous" I confess while putting the pregnancy stick inside the box under all of the confetti.
"Why?" Nicole asks and I shrug.
"How Maddox will react. He looked happy when I told him that I didn't mind having pups but what if he doesn't want one right now. What will I do then?" I ask, running my hands through my hair anxiously.
Nikki shakes her head. "I am sure he will be happy"
I frown "But what if he isn't? I will have be heartbroken but I would never get rid of my baby so I would have to leave the pack and move to another state and take care of my baby alone and what will I I say when they ask where the dad is? Will I lie or will I tell them the truth. I don't want to leave Maddox he is amazing and I love him but There isn't another way. I refuse to get rid of my babe-" I ramble.
"Woah, woah woah! Calm down Jayda" Nikki tries to interrupt me but I keep going.
"That's it, I won't tell Maddox anything. If I don't tell him then he won't leave me. And when the baby comes I'll just leave when he kicks me out....shit what about when I start showing? Maybe he will think I just got fat-" I say quickly but Nikki cuts me off.
"STOP! You are talking crazy. Calm the fuck down Jayda. Maddox will never kick you out and you will definitely not keep his baby away from him" She snaps, clearly irritated and I start crying.
"I just don't want him to leave me"
Nikki's face softens "He won't. My brother is capable of anything, except leaving you."
"I just-" I start but get cut off by a knock on Nicole's bedroom door.
"Hey girls, hide all those tampons and everything you woman talk about cause I am about to walk in" Luke says from behind the door making me snort.
"Come in Luke" I say, wiping my eyes.
Luke opens the door and smiles at me but then frowns when he sees Nikki's and I's red eyes from crying so much today.
He quickly hugs Nikki "What happened?" He asks frantically.
I shrug "Let Nikki tell you, I need to go home now, Bye guys." I hug Nikki and Luke then grab the box of my way out.
I try to make the 5 minute walk towards Maddox's and I's home the longest I can but when it starts pouring cats and dogs I have no choice but to hurry up.
