Green Day, Why Am I In Your Room?
Chapter 10
I awoke the following morning as usual with Tre's arms wrapped around me. I closed my eyes again, hoping to catch a bit of a sleep in, before I felt a sudden wave of sickness wash over me.
I instinctively jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom, feeling like I was about to throw up. The reflection looking back at me was a pale one - all the colour had drained from my face. Breathing a sigh of relief, I pondered as to why sickness was brewing in the pit of my stomach this early in the morning.
My heart skipped a beat.
Fuck.
Fuck. Shit.
FUCK!
No, no it couldn't be early morning sickness.
Wait...
It was early morning sickness. I began to panic and my heart sped up to about a hundred times the normal speed.
It must have been back in Australia...when we -
What was I going to do? I thought in desperation. Why now?
There was a knocking on the door. "Tash? Are you OK?" Tre's concerned voice came through the door.
"Uh - " I forced myself to open the door. "J-just feeling a little bit sick, thats all..."
"Riiight," Tre answered, looking at me up and down. "You look really pale - are you sure you're OK?"
"No," I said, throwing myself into his arms. "Tre, I think I'm pregnant - " I whispered hoarsely.
"You're WHAT?" Tre gasped, pulling me out of his arms and looking directly into my eyes. "A-are...are you sure?"
Why the fuck was he scared? He wasn't the one faced with the possibility of carrying a child in his stomach.
"Well, I'm feeling sick and ... you know...we did - "
"Yeah yeah I know," Tre said, his face also looking worried. "But we can't be sure until you do a pregnancy test or something...can we?"
"I don't know," I said in despair. Either way, I figured I was pregnant. I was sure of it...it just felt like there was something growing inside of me now.
"Come on. Get changed - we'll go down there now."
"How about you go?" I said quietly. "I'd rather just - "
"Of course," he said quickly, hugging me again. "It'll be OK..."
How was it going to be OK?
Tre's POV
The thoughts spinning around in my head were constant. She was pregnant. But I was trying to calm down for her sake...and my own.
I jumped into my car, starting it up and speeding down the driveway. I hurried into the chemist and randomly picking up a test and driving back home. Needless to mention the look I got when the woman serving me realised I was Tre Cool and I was buying a pregnancy test.
It seemed unreal that this was happening...everything was going too fast.
I pounded up the stairs to where Tash was sitting tensely on the bed.
"You ready?" I asked.
She nodded and took the test into the bathroom. I waited outside anxiously, until she emerged about two minutes later. Her face was blank.
"Well?"
"It won't show up for a few minutes," she said quietly, staring at the test in her hand. Her eyes were worried and her face pale.
"Come here," I said gently, pulling her into a hug. "No matter what, I'll always love you."
"I'll always love you too," she said, holding me close. She gasped. "It's - "
Tash's POV
I hastily looked at it. There it was in front of me. "Positive," I read aloud, in shock. "Tre? What are we going to do?" I cried.
"We'll - "
"Keep it?" I replied, nearly unable to speak.
"Only if you will," Tre said firmly.
"Easy for you to say," I muttered. I quite liked the shape of my slim body the way it was.
"Tash, I love you and I always will. I'll always be by your side, no matter what." His blue eyes were full of sincerity.
"But what will I do when you're on tour? If something happens - " I shuddered at the thought.
"It won't," he said firmly, again.
Somehow, it was all going to be alright. I pulled him in close so my face was an inch away from his. "I love you," I whispered.
"I love you too," he said, kissing me passionately on the lips.
I instinctively jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom, feeling like I was about to throw up. The reflection looking back at me was a pale one - all the colour had drained from my face.
