Erica was pacing back and forth in the bathroom. This was the longest two minutes of her life. She looked at the clock again and nearly broke her ankle trying to get into the bathroom. She looked at the test and it held a plus sign. She almost screamed, but she needed to be sure. She grabbed her phone and made an appointment to the doctor.
Erica sat in the cold waiting room nervously waiting for her name to be called. A nurse came out of the back with a folder in her hand.
"Erica Jackson?"
"Right here." Erica got up and walked over to the nurse. The nurse led her to a small room while she waited for the doctor. A few moments later a knock sounded on the door and Dr. Jones came in. He was an older man with brown hair that was graying around the edges.
"So Erica what can I do for you today?"
Erica took a deep breath. "I came to see if I am...how do I put this? I want to see if I'm pregnant."
Dr. Jones looked at her and smiled kindly. "Of course we can see if you're pregnant. Let's just get a urine sample and I'll run the tests."
Erica went into the restroom and did the duty then came back out with her sample. She gave it to the doctor and waited as he ran the tests.
He came back into the room a few minute later.
"Well from the results Erica it shows that you're pregnant." Dr. Jones looked at Erica with kind hazel eyes.
Erica sat on the cold table with shock at the news that was read to her. Her face slowly formed into a grin then a full out smile. She jumped off the desk and ran to hug Dr. Jones.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! You don't know how happy this makes me!!" She started laughing and gave the doctor another hug.
Dr. Jones laughed and looked at her. "Well sweetheart I didn't have anything to do with the babies, but you're certainly welcome."
Erica froze in mid-jump. "Babies?! As in TWINS?!!!! Om my gosh I'm having twins!!!!"
Erica ran over to the doctor again and gave him a hug.
He laughed. "Erica I'm happy for you and I'm glad that you're happy. Now let's talk about your new diet for the next few months and let's talk about the things you need to do in order to get ready for these babies. By the way does the father know yet?"
Erica shook her head. "No, but he will very soon." She smiled to herself and thought about the life in her stomach. Hopefully this would prove to be more of a blessing than a curse.
Adam sat in his tattoo shop going over the transactions for the day. He heard the bell ring over the door.
"I'm sorry we're closed for the day." Adam looked up and held his breath. Giselle Harris stood in the middle of the doorway with a barely there silk dress hugging her curves. She was still beautiful from the last time he saw her. Her honey blond hair fell in curls around her shoulders. She smiled at him with hazel eyes.
"Adam long time no see. How have you been lately?" Giselle walked over to Adam. The man was still fine as hell and it didn't help that every time she was around him she got wet.
"I've been doing good Giselle. How have you been doing?" Adam looked over at Giselle with blank eyes.
"I've been doing well and you're father says hello." Giselle walked around the front desk of Adams' shop and stood next to him.
"We've missed you Adam you need to come home and see your family." Giselle looked at him with pouty eyes.
Adam gazed at Giselle then sighed. She was his stepmother who was trying desperately to get him into bed. She was one reason why he didn't have a good relationship with his father. No screw that she was the whole problem. His father didn't like him around Giselle and his father felt that he always had to be in control. Giselle would always get what she wanted, but Adam practically had to beg for his father to give him something.
"Giselle you need to stop this little game you're playing with me. It's not right and as much as my father hates me I refuse to hurt him." Adam got up from his desk and pushed his way around Giselle.
"Adam you know you want me so how about you stop playing games. You act as if you're some saint saving everyone from injustice. Aren't you the same man who has sex with women as if it's a game?"
"Who the hell told you that shit?"
"Oh my little friend Katy told me. Oh don't worry she wasn't hurt she was just surprised that my stepson was such a good fuck. I wish I could know what she did." Giselle walked over to Adam and pushed her breasts up against him.
Adam pushed Giselle away. "Giselle get the fuck away from me okay? I'm not playing anymore with you. I'm surprised my father hasn't found out the dirty slut you truly are. You're only with him for the money."
Giselle tossed her hair over her shoulder. "Yeah you're right, but that doesn't matter because he's in too deep now." Giselle tossed her head back and laughed.
Adam walked over to her and pushed her out of his shop. He locked the door and went back to his work. He stopped as he realized his hands were shaking. He couldn't let Giselle get anywhere near Erica because if she did all hell would break loose.
Erica was walking around Adams' house with her hand on her stomach. She looked down and smiled at the sight. She was having Adams' children. She twirled around in the middle of the room then sat back down in the chair. For a couple of hours she'd been trying to figure out how to tell Adam she was pregnant. She thought about just telling him the news straight up, but she thought it was too conventional. She thought about spelling it out in a cake, and then she thought about walking around the house all day with her hand on her belly. Either way she had to tell him the news soon. Erica stopped her pondering as a knock sounded on the door.
She walked over and looked through the peep hole. "Who is it?"
A pause sounded before a deep gruff voice answered. "I'm Adams' father Colin."
Erica tried to reign in the anger that bubbled to the surface before she opened the door. On the other side was a man the same size as Adam, but the similarities stopped there. This man had red hair and blue eyes. His face was full of hard lines that looked to be from stress.
Colin looked at her. "May I come in?"
Erica moved to the side to let Adams' father in. "Adam isn't here, but I'll let him know that you came by." Erica tried to figure out were that side of her came from. Who was she to tell Colin that he couldn't visit his own son?
Colin smiled at her. "That's okay I didn't come here to see Adam. I came here to see you."
Erica walked over to the couch in shock. "Okay sure what did you want to talk about?"
Colin looked at her with sad eyes. "First I wanted to explain myself. I know you've already found out how bad of a parent I was and I know there's know excuse for the way I treated Adam. I couldn't stand the thought of looking at Adam everyday. When I lost his mother it was like I lost everything in life. Adam only made it worse considering he's an exact replica of his mother. Except she was full of life and happiness while Adam is cold and dark. I guess that's all my fault, right?"
Erica moved over to sit by Colin. "You can't help what you feel Colin, but Adam needed a father and a mother. You should've stepped up instead of quitting. Don't think that Adam doesn't love you he's just hurt."
Colin looked at Erica. "Yeah and I'm king of the world. Because of me Adam has had a fucked up childhood. He didn't have the happy life that his friends had. I was so focused on getting love from another woman that I just refused to let anything interfere with that. Adams' mother was all I had and when someone else came along I did everything to hold on to that."
Erica grabbed Colins' hand. "Well you can do everything to get your son back. It's not too late for you and Adam. I think this might be a better time than you think."
"I hope you're right Erica, but anyway enough about me I just came by to thank you for giving my son the life and happiness he deserves."
Erica grabbed Colin into a hug. "Colin it's not too late to give your son what he needs. But you have to be the one to make the effort to change."
Colin smiled at Erica then looked down to see her hand resting on her belly. "Does he know yet?"
Erica looked at him puzzled. "Know what? Oh...OH!!! No I just found out today, but he's going to be a father and well you're going to be a grandfather if you want to be. You can show your love to these children."
