Austin just stared at the test I’ve just given him. He looked so shocked. Nothing in the world had prepared him for this kind of news. Not in a few years maybe. But here he stood… With a positive pregnancy test in his hands.
"Okay" he said and looked at me. I looked at him with tears in my eyes.
"Okay? Is that all you can say?" I asked and stared at him.
"What do you want me to say? I’m shocked…I didn’t really expect this" he said.
"You’re free to walk out" I said and gestured towards the door. Austin’s shoulders fell and he looked at me.
"Fuck no, I’m responsible for this as well… I’m not walking out" he said and he got angry. I swallowed and looked at him.
"so… what do you want to do?" I asked.
"To do? First we should go and see a midwife and see the little thing" he said and shrugged. I almost laughed a little but I just looked at him.

Austin made me some food and we talked about our opportunities.
"I’ll support you through whatever you want to do" he said.
"So if I decide to keep this baby..?" I asked.
"Then I’m going to be there for you and I’m going to be a father" he said and smiled. He still looked worried and scared, but I could see that he meant it. Austin would be there.
"And how cool wouldn’t it be to have a little princess running around in our home, and i’ll have a Disney buddy" he said and grinned a little.
"What if it’s a prince then?" I asked and looked at him.
"Then I’ll guess I have to skip the little mermaid and let him watch the lion king" Austin said and shook his head. I laughed.
"And why can’t out son watch the little mermaid?" I asked.
"because then he might want to have Ariel for himself" Austin said and looked at me. I looked at him, a bit surprised, and then I laughed.
"I love you, do you know that?" I asked.
"And I love you, I love you more than anything" he said and smiled.

Austin was driving and he was thumping his fingers against the steering wheel. He was nervous and I looked at him. It had gone two days since I’ve told him about the pregnancy and today we were going to go and see a midwife. To tell talk about it and get to know a possible due date.
"You’re nervous?" Austin asked without looking at me.
"Maybe a little, and I can see that you are nervous as well" I said and smiled.
"As hell" he confessed and I could see a small smile on his lips.
"Why?" I asked and looked at him.
"Well… almost two months ago I thought I would never see you again, and here you are… You’re my girl again, you’re pregnant and I couldn’t be happier" he said and nodded. He glanced at me and gave me a smile. I couldn’t help but to smile as well.

Austin squeezed my hand as the midwife started to put gel on the ultrasound stick. Since I was so early pregnant it was vaginal and not over my belly, which had surprised both me and Austin. But we didn’t complain. Or I whined a little when the cold gel came against my walls and further inside me. But Austin kissed my temple and gave me a huge smile. the midwife looked around a little before she found what she was looking for.
"Well look at that, it seems like you’re carrying twins" she said and smiled. I just stared at the screen as she pointed out the two dark dots. Austin just stared as well but we got interrupted when his phone went off.
"Fuck, I need to take this" he sighed.
"It’s okay" I said and smiled. Austin walked out from the room and I could hear him outside. The midwife looked at the small dots and printed out a picture for me and Austin. I smiled and couldn’t stop when I looked at it. She pulled out the stick and I frowned a little, and she looked at me.
"So how long have you’ve been trying for kids?" she asked.
"well we haven’t actually… this came as a surprise" I said and looked at her.
"Well you’r babies seem to be just fine, and you don’t seem to be showing any signs of miscarriage as well" she said.
"How can you know that? I thought it wasn’t safe until after the third month?" I asked. She looked up from her papers and looked at me.
"but darling… You’re getting into week 13 next week" she said and looked at me. I stared at her and my heart dropped. Dave…
