I walk into the house after work and yell "Allie I'm home!"

I wait but I hear nothing which is not normal. I suddenly feel frightened that something happened. I run upstairs to or room. Before I open the door I can hear Allie sobbing.

I open the door and she's sitting on the bed with her knees to her chest and her arms around her knees. Her face is in her arms shaking from crying.

I slowly walk over to her and kneal down on one knee. I put my hands on her shoulders and ask "Whats wrong Al?"

She looks up but doesn't look me in the eyes. "I-I c-can't t-tell y-you."

Anxiety hits me. " Why? What's the matter? Is something wrong?" I ask in more shakey voice

She doesn't answer but starts sobbing harder so I wrap my arms around her waist and my head in her shoulder. I place a kiss on her neck. She lays her head on my shoulder and sobs.

After a few minutes I lift her up by her armpits, wrapping her arms around my neck and she wrapped her legs around my waist.

I lay her down on the bed and lay on top of her with my arms still around her waist. I lay my chin on her head while she cries into my chest. I pet her hair with my thumb trying to sooth her. I kiss her head.

After awhile her sobs start start to simmer into whimpers. I slowly start to pull away but only an about an inch. Just to look at her face. I rest my hand on her cheek. She's still shaking a little but not as violently. She looks me in the eyes. I look into her beautiful gray eyes.

"Whats the matter Al?" I ask in a soft voice.

She takes a shakey deep breath and looks away. "P-promise y-you w-wont leave me or-or be m-m-mad or h-h-hate me or-or-"

I kiss her lips to stop her from her rant. I pull away after awhile and look at her eyes. I hold her cheeks with both of my hands and say "I promise that I will stay with you forever. I promise you I won't be mad and I promise I will never ever hate you. I promise on my life."

" I-I-Im p-p-pregnant!" She yells closing her eyes tightly.

Once those words come out of her mouth I slowly smile and sigh a sigh of relief. I kiss her all over her face and she seems shocked but starts to giggle a little.

"I thought you would be mad?" She asked with a small smile.

"Why would I be mad? This is awesome! I always wanted to be a dad." I said with so much excitement I was even surprised.

"Thank goodness! I was so nervous you never did and that you would hate me."

"Why would I hate you. If anything it would be my fault. But I love that it was my fault because I've always wanted a child." As I say that she smiles a big smile it reaches her eyes. I smile back at her. I lean down and kiss her softly. Our lips move in sync.

We kiss for a while before I pull away. I move my body so my head is above her stomach. I lift her shirt and slowly place a kiss on her skin. I softly whisper into her stomach "Hi my princess."
