Chapter 21

"Has it been 3 minutes yet? I mean seriously, this waiting game is killing me." Zak said as he paced back and forth outside the bathroom door.

"You really need to learn the meaning of patience." I replied to him with a small laugh.

I stood at the bathroom sink, the test laying on the counter, my eyes never leaving it. I was scared, nervous, but all around also excited. I wanted to have children, I wasn't expecting to this early into our marriage, but I would be happy either way. My hands were shaking as I picked the test up off of the counter and slowly walked to the door to open it. As the door swung open, Zak rushed to it, ready to either pick me up off of the floor or pull me into an embrace. I looked up from the test I held in my hands and looked him directly in his eyes.

"It's positive." I quietly told him.

"We are having a baby?" He asked me, a smile spreading across his face.

I nodded my head yes, and before I knew it his arms were wrapped around me and lifting me off of the ground, twirling me around in a circle. He was ecstatic, and quite frankly so was I. He set me down after a couple of twirls and passionately kissed my lips.

"I cannot believe we are having a baby. This is the greatest day of my life, all except marrying you that is." Zak said as he rested his forehead against mine.

"I never thought I would get the chance to be a mother, and yet here I am. The man of my dreams being the father." I replied to him as I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling his lips back down to mine in a heated kiss.

"You kissing me like that is how we created this baby, ya know."

"I'm well aware how this baby came to be."

I kissed him once more before walking to the bedside table and picking up my phone. I quickly dialed Aarons number and put it on speaker phone. Zak stood next to me with his arm wrapped around my waist as the phone was ringing in my hand.

"Hello?" I heard Aaron answer sleepily.

"What, were you taking a nap?" I asked with a laugh.

"Maybe. It's been a long week, dude."

"Well we have news, so are you awake enough to take it?"

"Someone better be pregnant or dying." Aaron said, sounding more awake now. I looked to Zak with a smile on my face, trying to suppress my laughter.

"Well, one of those is correct." Zak told him with a slight chuckle.

"Sarah, are you pregnant?! Am I gonna be an uncle?! Please tell me this isn't some sick joke, because I am super excited now."

"I'm pregnant, Aaron." I said to him laughing at his reaction.

"I'M GOING TO BE AN UNCLE!!"

"Dude, can you not scream into our ears?!"

I heard Aaron drop the phone and start jumping around his room. I audibly laughed listening to his reaction, happy that my life has officially come to this. The man of my dreams was at my side, and I had our little bean growing inside of me. I placed my hand over my stomach, which I knew in a short time was going to expand greatly and contain a perfect child that was part me and part Zak. I was rubbing my stomach, not realizing that I had tears beginning to fall down my face. I felt Zak place his hand under my chin, lifting my face to meet his.

"Why are you crying?" He softly asked me, a worried expression on his face.

"It's not bad tears, Zak. I am happy. More happy than you could ever imagine." I responded to him as he rested his forehead against my own, and placed a soft kiss on my lips.

"So am I, baby."
