Sarah POV:

Well the past few days I had been feeling tired no matter how much sleep I had been getting. I was getting cramps and headaches on and off all day long. I was also getting more and more nauseous on and off through out the day. This morning I actually got sick and was currently laying in bed on my stomach with my head half on the bed and a trash can right under me. My stomach was churning and growling and it was only 6 am. I groaned as I turn my head and hide it into my mattress, but I hear my door open before I hear my best friend and roommate walk over and sit down. She rubs my back and softly asks,

"It's getting worse, isn't it?"

All I do is nod as I try and fight against the liquid trying to come up my throat. She just sits there for a few minutes rubbing my back and it slowly calmed my stomach down enough that I was sure I wasn't going to throw up again. I roll over onto my side and curl up around her and she starts running her fingers through my hair. As I lay there trying to relax I'm hit with a idea so I whisper,

"Shelby what if I'm pregnant? I mean I was told it was practically impossible but all the symptoms fit right?"

I could feel her hand still before she tapped my hip making me scoot back and she laid down right next to me. I know she could hear the fear, uncertainty, and the slight hope in my voice. She pulled me to her chest and just held me as I started shaking in mixed emotions. After almost a hour she softly says,

"I have to agree with you, it could very well be a possibility. And I really think you need to take a test and find out because if your not then your sick and need to stay home and go to a doctor."

I bite my lip as I nod and curl up into her chest even more as the nauseous feeling come rushing back. I whimper as I carefully get up and sit on the edge of the bed and hang my head as I clench the side of the mattress. But it wasn't going away so I slowly make my way to the bathroom and slide down the wall with my eyes closed. I felt her join me and I lean my head on her shoulder as I rest a hand on my stomach. But after a minute I suddenly leaned over the toilet and was back to throwing up. It luckily didn't last as long as the first round but it still left me shaky. I must have dozed off for a bit cause I blink my eyes open and my head was now laying in Shelby's lap with my head curled up to her stomach. While still tired I didn't feel sick anymore so I push myself up carefully and give her a tired smile in thanks. I sigh as I let my eyes drift down and look at my stomach and whisper,

"Could I really be a becoming mommy right now?"

I trace my stomach in a carefully hopeful wonder as she knew I really wanted to be a mom. She gets up and grabs something only to kneel in front of me and whisper,

"Only one way to find out hun."

I see the test in her hand and shakily grab it as I stand up and she leaves the room. I quickly pee on the stick and clean up before I walk out of the bathroom and start pacing my room with her watching from my bed. My hands were resting on my lower abdomen as I sat down at the foot of the bed. I absentmindedly start rubbing small circles there as something inside of me was telling me that I was indeed pregnant. But I didn't want to get my hopes up, I didn't want to be crushed if I wasn't going to be a mommy. I blink as I notice it's probably been long enough, as I slowly make my way into the bathroom and up to the counter. I stop breathing and with shaking hands I look in the mirror at myself before looking down. I blink a few times before tears fill my eyes and I whisper,

"I'm gonna be a mommy, Shelby I'm going to be a mommy!"

I turn towards her with a beaming smile as tears roll down my face. She leaps towards me and hugs me while we start laughing. She pulls away and says,
