Chapter 23
I headed to college with a huge smile on my face, I was engaged and I couldn't be happier about it. I spotted Becca waiting for me outside the door, I skipped up to her and grabbed her hand yanking her away to the grassy area off to one side so I could tell her about the baby. I waved Andrew away so we could talk privately, he stopped and waited at the edge of the grass watching the area cautiously. He was a really nice guy, I liked him a lot.
Becca laughed and ran along behind me, "Where's the fire?"
"I've got something to tell you." I smiled and stopped. I grabbed her hand and put it on my stomach. "What do you feel?" I asked grinning.
She frowned and pushed her finger against my belly button making me laugh, "Well you haven't had your naval pierced, so I have no idea." she shrugged trying to pull her hand back looking at me like I'd lost my mind.
"You know I think of you like a sister right?" I asked.
She nodded still looking confused, "Yeah...." she trailed off.
"Well how do you feel about me calling you Auntie Becca from now on?" I asked laughing.
She looked at me confused for a few seconds before understanding slowly crossed her face and she looked down at my stomach shocked with her mouth hanging open.
"Holy shit! You're pregnant?" she cried loudly.
"Shh." I hissed looking around to make sure everyone else wasn't listening. "Yeah I'm pregnant." I grinned as her eyes went even wider.
"Holy shit." she mumbled.
I laughed, "Can you say something else?" I teased.
"How far gone are you? How? I thought you had the coil fitted? How can you be pregnant?" she asked shaking her head looking like she was going to pass out or something.
"Ok I know you're shocked but calm down, everything's fine. I don't want too many people to know about it yet so if you could keep your voice down for me." I asked grabbing her hand and sitting on the grass pulling her down next to me. "I do have the coil fitted but as with everything it's not 100% effective so that's how. I'm four weeks according to the test I took, I used the one with the conception date indicator on it." I bit my lip as I lied to my best friend. I felt a little bad about lying to her but I needed to protect my family and that was just one thing that needed to be kept secret from everyone.
"Four weeks? So it's Ethan's?" she asked quietly glancing around being careful too.
I nodded and smiled, "Yep definitely Ethan's." I lied.
She shook her head, "Damn that boy works fast." she laughed quietly. "So what are you two gonna do?"
I smiled happily, "Get married."
"Holy shit!" she gasped.
