Y/N sat on the floor of the bathroom, knees drawn to her chest. Her mind raced and her entire body felt cold. There’s no way this could be happening. Her and Lafayette had been careful. Using all sorts of protection and always cleaning up afterwards. Where could they have slipped up? Maybe she was overthinking all of this, maybe she wasn’t pregnant.
She reached up onto the counter and grabbed her phone. She turned it on and was greeted by a picture of her and Laf. It was from their trip to the statue of liberty. Y/N was laughing with her boyfriend as he rested his chin on her head. Y/N couldn’t help but smile slightly at the memory.
You know, she was a gift from the french
Yes Laf, you told me several times
She wanted to call him so badly. For him to calm her down and tell her everything was going to be okay. She wanted to, but couldn’t. What if he didn’t want a baby? What if he was furious? Laf had never gotten angry with Y/N in all the years they’d been together. Even when she’d completely deserved it. Y/N knew this, and yet she still dreaded the thought of telling him.
She entered her contacts and scrolled through them. Who could she trust in this situation? That’s when she saw Eliza’s name come across the screen. She would be understanding, everyone always joked about how she was the “mom friend”. She tapped on the contact and held the phone up to her ear. Y/N bit her lip as the phone rang. Maybe she miscalculated when she was supposed to have her period. Maybe she just had the stomach flu.
“Hey Y/N!” Eliza’s cheery voice cut into her thoughts. Sounds of children’s voices could be heard in the background.
“Hey ‘Liza, is this a bad time?” Y/N asked, realizing that she must be at work.
“No no, it’s fine, just one second” Eliza reassured her. Y/N waited for a moment until the little voices stopped. “I was just leaving work, what’s up?” Y/N felt the knot in her stomach tighten.
“I.. uhm… I need a favor and... you can’t tell Laf ” Y/N mumbled into the phone. Eliza paused.
“Of course honey, what’s wrong?” She asked, immediately picking up on Y/N’s worry.
“Could you… I need you to bring over a pregnancy test” The other line went silent. Y/N wondered if Eliza had hung up for some reason.
“Y/N you shouldn’t be afraid to ask Lafayette to do this. He’s the most understanding man ever” Eliza said.
“No!” Y/N blurted “I...I just want to figure this out before he knows anything”
Eliza sighed. It didn’t sound like she was annoyed, just defeated. She wasn’t going to fight Y/N on this
“Okay, this is for you to decide. I’ll be over in a few minutes” she said.
“Thanks ‘Liza” Y/N whispered and hung up. Just as she pressed the red ‘hang up’ button, her stomach lurched. She threw herself over the toilet and silently begged for Eliza to arrive quicker. Or Lafayette. Or anybody. She just didn’t know how much longer she could take being alone with her thoughts. Several minutes passed and she could hear the front door open.
“Eliza? I’m in here! Do you have it?” Y/N called out down the hall. She heard Laf chuckling down the hall and her heart sank.
“No Eliza here! Just moi!” He called back. Y/N’s eyes darted around, trying to think of something to say, but nothing came.
“Is she coming over?” Laf asked as the front door closed. Y/N remained silent, and Laf seemed to notice.
“Y/N? Cheri?” He called. Still nothing. Y/N could feel herself growing more and more nervous. Her palms were sweating and the color was draining from her face.
“Y/N? Is everything okay?” Laf asked, sounding a little more worried. Footsteps approached the bathroom and Lafayette appeared in the doorway. Y/N’s eyes widened as they locked onto his. “Y/N, why are you on the floor? What’s wrong?” He asked as her rushed over to her side.
He took her hands in his, patiently waiting for a response. His hands still felt cold from being outside, yet they still felt so inviting. Y/N bit her lip and closed her eyes.
“I think I’m pregnant” She whispered. It felt as though a thousand pound weight had been lifted off her chest. However, she still hadn’t seen Laf’s reaction. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up at Laf’s face. He looked shocked. His eyes were wide and his mouth was slightly ajar. Y/N quickly let go of his hands to hide her face.
“I-I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have said any-” Y/N stammered until Laf cut her off by cupping her face with her hands. As her face lifted, she could feel tears fall.
“Amour, there is no reason to be sorry. Pregnant or not… I still love you. If you are pregnant, I will love our bebe just the same” He said soothingly.
“Really?”
“Of course”
Y/N smiled and rested her head onto his chest. His arms wrapped around her, pulling her into a comfortable embrace. They sat there for several minutes before a knock on the door flew down the hallway. Y/N lifted her head from Laf's chest.
“That’s Eliza, I asked her to bring over a pregnancy test” Y/N blushed, feeling embarrassed now. Laf giggled and stood up.
“I’ll go let her in” Laf said gesturing to the door. Y/N nodded and he left. He made his way down the hallway and opened the front door. Sure enough, Eliza stood on the other side, a pink box in her hands. She made eye contact with Laf and quickly fumbled the box behind her back.
“Laf! Hi! Uh, I was just in the area and thought I would… stop by” Eliza spluttered.
“It’s fine Eliza, Y/N told me everything” Lafayette chortled.
“Oh thank god…” Eliza sighed, letting her hands drop to her sides, revealing the test. He let out another laugh and lead her to the bathroom. Y/N looked up as they entered. She smiled, feeling ready.
