Billie's Lover
Chapter 13
*Clara’s POV*
Negative… Again… We had been trying for over 3 weeks. But, in a way I was kind of relived. I wasn’t sure if I was really ready for a baby.
“So? What is it?” Billie asked from the other side of the door.
“Negative…” I replied emerging from the bathroom.
He sighed.
“But Billie… Now that I’ve put more thought into it… I’m not sure I’m ready.” I said.
He had a puzzled look on his face.
“I know you miss being a dad, but don’t you think we should just enjoy being married, without children for a while?” I added.
“Yeah, I guess,” He said looking down.
“I mean it is kind of soon…” I said.
“I know, I know. I just can’t wait,” He replied with a chuckle.
“I know but it’s not like we’re never going to have children, “I said grabbing his hands, “Just not now…”
“Yeah… I didn’t mean to rush you. But like you said, I miss being a father,” He replied,
“So we’ll give it time?” I asked.
“Okay,” He replied kissing me.

Another month had gone by and it was September. My classes would be starting up again next week. Hannah was hoping Mike would propose soon, then we would all be happy couples! [Authors Note: Tee Hee…]
Billie was still sleeping and I got up to make some coffee. Then out of nowhere, this incredibly woozy feeling came over me. I almost fell but held myself up using the counter. I put my hand on my forehead. I couldn’t think of why I would be woozy. I wasn’t sick, or at least I didn’t have a temperature.
“Oh crap!” I said aloud.
I ran to the bathroom and got out a pregnancy test. A few minutes later it said I was positive.
“Shit…”
I checked again, and again. And it said positive every time. I heard Billie out in the kitchen.
“Billie…” I said as I walked out the bathroom door.
“Hm?” He grunted.
“I’m pregnant…” I said.
He turned around and looked at me wide eyed.
“What?” He said.
“I checked a few times and… I’m pregnant,” I said bluntly.
“Wow… What are we gunna to do?” He asked.
“Well, keep the baby I guess…” I replied.
“But I thought you weren’t ready,” He said.
“I’m not, but what are we gunna do right?” I replied.
There was long pause.
“Wow…” He said with a sigh.
