Think Pregnant Thoughts, Pt. 2

I decided not to take a second test right away. Even though it was slowly killing me inside to still be unsure. Stupid invalid test!

I tried my best not to think about it. Like, because I would just end up driving myself crazy. Good thing I had a ton of movies I wanted to watch. This totally helped. But even after watching Rango and Super 8, I kept thinking about it.

Finally, I decided it was just best to go to sleep. But I wasn’t allowed to. I was forced to watch Pay it Forward. Which by the way, I hate that movie. It made me cry. A lot. I hate when kids die in movies, it’s just not right. Originally, my plan was to take the test, get a negative and the get drunk off what was left from the bottle of Ciroc I got my boyfriend for his birthday.

I woke up with the sudden urge to pee. So I got up and killed two birds with one stone. And just so that I wouldn’t get an invalid result for the second time, I pee’d on it a little more. I was relieved no one was awake yet, because for some reason, whenever you’re trying to be sneaky, you’re apparently very loud. At least the boyfriend’s roommates were not 2 feet away from me. (Honestly, I don’t think they were even home).

I walked back to the bedroom and placed the test on the dresser, and told myself “THINK PREGNANT THOUGHTS!”. I just stood there. Staring at the stick. Watching the control window develop it’s little line.

“DON’T THINK PREGNANT THOUGHTS!” as I paced back and forth. I ended up stubbing my toe on a chair and whimpered like a puppy, and woke up my boyfriend. He saw the pregnancy test on the dresser and he hugged me, not even knowing if it was positive or not.

“I think we can look at it now. It’s been like 10 minutes”.

“If it’s been like 10 minutes, why haven’t you looked at it?!”

“Because I was too scared to look at it myself, duh!”.

He laughed at me.

We finally looked at it.

NOT PREGNANT!

While I let out a HUGE sigh of relief, I felt kind of sad. Maybe this is what it feels like when you’re ready or just a little grown up.

Since it was still pretty early in the morning, I decided to go back to sleep. While I was trying to go back to Dreamland, I told my boyfriend, “what if there is a baby in there, and he’s just playing Hide-N-Seek?”.

I didn’t even get a giggle.
