The tears slowly trickled down my cheek and plopped down on the white sheets below me. My red hair fell over my shoulders as my body continued to shake. How could I tell him? Would he understand. I heard the door close downstairs and my body grew tense. I didn't know how he would take it, but I had to tell him.
"Pumpkin?"
That was it. The one moment that set me off. I sat up facing the window and hugged my pillow to my chest.
"Jenny?"
I wiped a tear away from my now red cheek. As I heard his steps getting closer to the bedroom I took a deep breath.
"Hi Greg."
He opened the door and I turned my head to look at him. I remember what he told me when we first got married. He told me we would be together forever no matter what. Now I'm afraid that this will change everything.
"Jenny? What happened?"
He rushed to me and knelt before me. He grabbed my hands and looked at me. My head felt heavy and  I lowered it as another tear trickled down my cheek.
"Greg. I'm pregnat." I mumbled
I lifted my head and looked at him. I didn't want to change anything I had with Greg. I love him. He stood up and began to pace the floor in front of me.
"What?" he asked
"Fuck Greg. I'm pregnat."
He stopped and looked at me. His eyes pierced into me. His cold glare sinking in me.
"Pregnat! God Jennifer!"
I threw the pillow back on the bed and stood up and began to walk toward him.
'What. Can't you at least pretend that you care?"
I put my arms around his shoulders. He quickly shook me off and walked back over to the bed. He sat down and threw his glasses back on the bed.
"Shit."
I sat down on the bed next to him and put my hands on his.
"Greg I'm sorry."
"Jenny you have no reason to be."
"It's just that I'm scared."
"Believe me. I'm scared too."
I took a deep breath and shook my head.
"I just don't know what to do."
Greg turned towards me and grabbed my hands.
"I'm going to love my baby more then anything. Becasue my baby has an amazing mother."
I sighed and laid back on the bed.
"I'm still scared."
Greg laid next to me and grabbed my hand.
"I'm scared too. But we'll get through this together."
I sighed and wiped another tear away. We only knew that there would be some surprises coming our way. What they were we would have to wait and see.
