Chapter 17

"Wha-What? You're pregnant?" He stutters in front me, stunned with wide open eyes as his mind is most likely trying to grasp the words I just uttered to him. I step forward in his direction and slowly grasp his face into my hands. Before I can say anything else he continues talking. "Are you sure? I-I mean it's most likely a false right? It can't be... We used..." He mumbles to himself. His eyes seem to be looking through as I can tell his mind is still in a haze, not really wanting to come to terms with the truth. "Alex, listen to me." I say firmly as I forcefully make him focus back on to me as I tell him what he doesn't want to hear. "I'm not lying and I don't think it was a false positive. This feeling, I can tell. I know that I am. Boy or girl, there is a child growing inside of me. A child we created together that night on our trip." I tell him softly.
