The noises made by your friends, the pogues, in the house they had all built, didn't seem to matter. You fell silent, your mind blank as you watched the small pharmaceutical object in your hands slowly draw the two vertical pink lines...
Positive... Damn, positive... Was the only thought on your mind.
You didn't know how, but as the day went by, Kiara and Sarah ended up finding out about the news... Their reactions, although surprised, made you feel a little less alone in the midst of the uncertainty that was eating away at you.
The three of them had their minds blank when they saw that the two pregnancy tests came out positive,the first to speak and seem unsure but at the same time with a little hope, was Kie.
"I-it's JJ's?" She asked, her eyes wide as Sarah gave her a look.
You nodded without hesitation.
But of course... You had to tell JJ...
With the threads of uncertainty, vulnerability and fear pulling at you and twisting your stomach into a messy knot, you walked towards the desk room... JJ was looking at the map they had found, distracted as he turned a screwdriver in his hands. As soon as he saw you in the doorway, his gaze went up to you with a smile, the same smile he always had for you.
It was the first time you couldn't concentrate on the words he said, it must have been a joke because when he noticed that you didn't laugh, his expression became serious and with a hint of concern.
"Hey... Are you okay?" He asked, leaving the screwdriver on the desk, and taking a few steps towards you.
You looked up at him, gulping, and said, "Can we talk?"
JJ was silent at the question, but he nodded anyway. He knew that this question wasn't ideal, but he wanted to hear you out... With you, he had learned that what is necessary in a relationship is communication. Curiosity and concern flashed in his blue eyes as they sat across from each other.
"Yeah, sure. Let's talk. What's wrong,doll?" He asked, letting you take both of his hands and intertwine his fingers with yours.
