Never Enough - By Ashley Johnson Page 0,54

now just because you’re pregnant, but I’d love to marry you one day and continue to take care of you. Watch you grow old. You have no idea what you mean to me.”

“I love you too Trevor. I’m so sorry about all this.”

“It’s not your fault, Mace. This took both of us to do this. We should have been a little more responsible, but what’s done is done. We need to get you a doctor appointment set up so you can get checked out and see how far you are and all that stuff the doctors do.” He was surprisingly very calm about all this. He held me close and we just sat there on the floor of our bathroom. I never realized just how small the bathroom was until now, but for the two of us it was perfect right now. Time stood still for that little amount of time. I kept my eyes fixed on one of the floor tiles. I must have outlined it with my eyes about thirty times. Then I heard the front door open.

Halley called for me but I didn’t answer. She glanced in the bathroom where she found us sitting on the tiny floor. She took one look at my tear stained face then at all the tests and her eyes grew wide. “Macy, you ok?” She joined us on the floor that I thought was too small for two people, it was even smaller now. I nodded my head to let her know I would be. “I’m here for you with anything you guys need ok? I have an idea. Let’s stay in tonight and order pizza and watch movies.”

I also noticed she had a puppy in her hands. Guess this was the big surprise. “Oh hey guys, this little fella is Oreo.” The little black and white dog wiggled out of her arms and licked my arm. It was cute, I could put up with it, as long as it didn’t use my room as its personal bathroom.

“Hales, don’t cancel any plans because of me.”

“No, don’t say that. We didn’t have plans at all right Marcus? Just staying home with you guys and Oreo.”

He replied, “Nope, just to sit around with you guys, like she said.” He gave me an assuring smile and I smiled back.

“Thanks guys, so much.” The bathroom floor was getting mighty uncomfortable. We slowly began getting up and Halley and Marcus went to the living room while Trevor carried me to my room.

He lay me down on the bed and lay beside me. He touched my belly and looked into my eyes. “So our baby is growing in there?”

“Seems to be that way. Crazy huh?” I let out a small laugh and began to ease up about the whole situation. I’d have rather this happen later but it was happening now.

He planted a small kiss on my belly then made a trail of kisses to my mouth. “I love you so much Macy. I can’t wait to meet our baby.”

I grabbed the back of his head and kissed him passionately. He removed my shirt and we took turns trying to remove each other’s shorts. He slid inside of me and made love to me until neither of us could see straight. It was just what both of us needed to clear our minds for the moment.

We lay there taking each other in and holding one another. His hand never left my belly. It was bittersweet. I grabbed my phone and looked at the time. My doctor’s office was still open.

“What are you doing Mace?” Trevor watched me smiling. I loved when he looked at me like that. Like nothing else in this world mattered.

“I’m going to call my doctor and set up my first appointment for us.”

“Can I come with you?” I couldn’t believe he would even ask such a silly question.

“Well duh. It’s our baby. I’d be pissed if you weren’t there!” He kissed my lips then let me finish my task at hand.

I sat on the bed on hold waiting to make an appointment. The receptionist asked a few questions and pulled my record up. I hung up after she told me my first appointment was in two days. I wondered if we would be able to hear its heartbeat. How amazing was this going to be? As much as having a baby scared me, I was actually excited to be doing this with Trevor.

“Hey Trevor, can I ask you something?”

“Anything you want babe. What’s
