Passion in My Eyes, Ice in My Veins
Chapter 14
“Just take a deep breath,” I told myself over and over as I stared at the phone. “It’ll be okay. It’ll be okay. Deep breaths.”
The phone rang and I practically fell off my bed in surprise. I put my hand over my heart and took a deep breath and picked the phone up on the second ring. I opened my mouth slowly. “Hello?” My voice trembled.
“Hey baby,” Matt said soothingly.
“Hey,” I said quietly, knowing I had to tell him about what was going on. I wasn’t going to chicken out of this. Matt wouldn’t leave me, right?
“You sound shooken up. What is it baby?” He asked worried.
“Um,” I gulped. I didn’t know how to get this out. I couldn’t just say it. “Are you uh. Sitting down?”
“Yeah…” Matt said confused. “Why? What’s going on Leslie?” he sounded worried.
I sighed. “Promise not to get mad?” I felt my eyes start to tear up again as I thought of what to say.
“I promise. Just tell me, Leslie.” He was eager.
“You know how you and I… had sex on your last night here?” I asked quietly.
“Yeah.” He was confused.
“I started getting sick.” I knew he was going to catch on.
He was quiet for a minute then spoke. “You’re…”
“Yeah.” I nodded starting to cry. “I found out yesterday.”
Matt didn’t say anything, but I heard him whisper my god under his breath.
“I’m sorry.” I cried. “Please don’t leave me, Matt. I need you.”
“Baby.” He sighed. “I’m not going to leave you.”
I just kept crying. I didn’t know what to say to him. I couldn’t even believe my own words. I was so completely shocked that I was pregnant. Matt knew and I thought I would feel better. But I feel worse. I knew I upset him.
I finally regained my composure. “Are you mad?”
“No,” he sighed, “I’m not mad. It’s not your fault.”
“I need you here,” I mumbled sadly as I curled up in bed, wishing he would be laying with me, holding me in his arms.
“I want to be with you so bad.” he sighed sadly. “I’ll be there with you soon enough. I promise,” he said reassuringly.
I sighed and wiped my eyes, closing them again. I can’t believe I just told Matt I was pregnant. What if he leaves me? What if he never comes back to see me? What will I do?
“Leslie,” Matt started in his soothing voice, “we’re going to make it. We can do this.”
I smiled a little, knowing Matt was right. We can get through this. And we will.
I rubbed my stomach, just thinking about what it will be like in 9 months. “Little baby Sanders.” I whispered.
The phone rang and I practically fell off my bed in surprise. I put my hand over my heart and took a deep breath and picked the phone up on the second ring. I opened my mouth slowly. “Hello?” My voice trembled.
“Hey baby,” Matt said soothingly.
