Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste

Ashley‘s pov

“So what does it say? Are you pregnant?” Kimberly questions after an awkward tense pause of silence.

How can I answer right now when my very own tongue feels heavy? Even my lungs felt restricted of air? Was this considered a panic attack?

“Well what does it say Ashley?” Rosalie asked. Impatience is clear in her voice but my mouth can‘t seem to form any sentence as of right now. My eyes are glued on the two dark red lines. Pregnant. I’m pregnant. 1 The little voice in my head kept repeating what I already knew yet it felt like a dream.

“Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost?” Rosalie murmurs, rises and comes beside me. She peeks at the test on the box and she gasps.

“Oh shit.” She gasps. “What’s wrong?!” Kimberly rushes out and stands up. “Nothing is wrong, the question we all should be asking is how did everything get so right? Congrats Ashley I know you’ll be a great moma.” Rosalie nearly squeals out loud. I’m startled when I felt her arms wrap around me to pull me into an embrace.

“She’s pregnant?” Kimberly yelled and walks over to us. She wraps her arms around us both. I feel their excitement yet my mind can’t wrap around the thought of becoming a mother.

I wanted this so bad. I wanted one day to be the mother of Blake’s kids. But now knowing that it was actually coming true and I was currently pregnant brought on fear. Fear of the unknown.

Not only did I get pregnant at the worst time since my baby daddy still hasn’t regained his memories but I also didn’t think I could do this with being so stressed.
