Aly's POV

  It's been two days since we returned from our honeymoon. I have been busy, we've both been going to work, and I've been searching for a new job. Then in the evenings, Joe and I have been moving his stuff into my flat.

  "Aly," Joe said crawling into bed with me.

  He started stroking my upper thigh.

  "Not tonight, I'm sorry babe, I'm just really exhausted and I've been feeling sick, my back and stomach hurt, I think I'm coming down with something."

  "I can take you to the doctors tomorrow, after work?" Joe offered.

  "Ok, I think it's a cold or the flu, but I'd rather see the doctor."

  Joe and I got into bed and fell asleep.

  The next morning I went to work, I took some pain relievers and carried on as normal. I don't know if my period's coming early and making me feel sick or if I'm actually coming down with something.

  After work, Joe picked me up and we went to the doctors. I walked in and signed onto the waiting list. After waiting for almost fifteen minutes.

  "Alyson Sugg," I smiled at Joe at my name and we both got up.

  "Hello," the nurse said, "Who is this?"

  "Joe, my husband, can he come in?"

  "Husband? Definetly."

  The nurse took my height which was 5'2", as usual, and my weight, 125.2 lbs. I had gained five pounds. She then directed us to a room.

  "So what's wrong today, Alyson?"

  "I've been feeling sick, my stomach is constantly hurting as is my back. I also feel a tightness in my chest."

  "Hmm... Ok. Now so basic health questions. Ok, you're 23, have you had your flu shot?"

  "Yes, last May."

  "Ok, have you been taking any drugs? Or smoking?"

  "No."

  "Ok, how long have you been experiencing this pain?"

  "Since yesterday."

  "Ok, have you been sexually active?"

  "Um, yes," I said looking at the ground.

  "With protection?"

  "Sometimes, just with him though," I said motioning to Joe.

  "That's fine, Ok, I will send the doctor in, she will have a look at you and tell you what she thinks."

  "Thank you."

  The nurse left and I looked at Joe. It feels weird having someone else in the doctors room with me, especially it's not my mom like when I was younger. Joe rubbed my back as we waited in silence, until we heard a knock.

  "Hello Alyson!" Dr. Nicola said as she opened the door.

  "Hello, this is my husband, Joe," I said introducing them.

  "Hello Joe, ok, now Alyson, can you sit on the bed for me please?"

  I got on the bed and layed down.

  "Does it hurt here?" Dr. Nicola asked as she pressed in my stomach.

  "Yeah."

  "Ok."

  This went on for a couple more minutes and then she asked me to sit up.

  "Ok, so on here it says, your stomach hurts a lot, as with you back, you haven't taken drugs, this doesn't run in you family, you've had your shots, but you're sexually active." She says reading off her computer screen.

  "Yeah."

  "Ok, just with Joe?"

  "Of course."

  "Ok, it also says, you sometimes use protection, how long since you have had sex without protection?"

  "Umm, about three days."

  "Ok, I'm going to take some tests, this could be a variety of different things, it could be a regular cold, or you could have contracted a disease, or you could possibly be pregnant. Joe, have you been tested for any STD's?"

  "Yeah, about 6 months ago, they all came back negative," Joe said.

  "Ok, we'll test you, Aly, just to be safe and we'll have you take a pregnancy test too, to make sure. I'll have you take the pregnancy test first, here. Just pee on the stick and leave it in the bathroom," She directed.

  "Ok."

  I went into the bathroom and followed her instructions. I returned to the room and a nurse came in to take blood for the tests. Soon after, she also left.

  "What if I'm pregnant?" I asked Joe frantically.

  "Then, you're pregnant, we're married. Everything will be ok. We've talked about children. I know we didn't necessarily want to have a child this early, but hey, it'll be ok. Anyway, we don't know yet, you could just have a cold."

  After almost half a hour, Dr. Nicola came back in.

  "Ok, we have news, we don't know if this the cause of your pain, but it could well be, you're pregnant!"

  "That's great!" Joe said.

  The doctor told me to make an appointment for six weeks time and to take it easy. Dr. Nicola also mentioned that because I'm barely along in the pregnancy, that she would advise us to keep it on the down low, to prevent pain for us later on, since there is still a high chance of miscarriage.

  As we left the clinic, I was unsure about how I felt about this. I mean I was happy, Joe and I were having a child, but I'm still looking for a job, we're moving, and I only have one spare room in my flat as it is and when Joe has family over they'll have no where to stay.

  "Alyson! I can't believe we're having a baby! We only got married a week and a half ago!"

  "Life is moving very fast!"

  "Yeah, but for now on I'll move my stuff over to your flat and stop your job search for now until after you have the baby, we don't need money, but if we get desperate I'll ask my boss for a raise."

  "I'm sorry Joe."

  "Don't be! This is a good thing!"

  "Are we going to tell everyone?"

  "That's your choice," Joe said.

  The more I think about it and the more Joe talks about it, I'm excited to have a child. Right now, there is a child growing inside of me. A child made by Joe and I.

  We drove home and Joe was so happy.

  "We're having a child!" Joe shouted in the car laughing.

  "Joe!" I laughed.

  We went back to our flat and Joe was giddy all evening.
