A gift From Las Vegas

Samantha"Are you anxious?" Elle asked as she sat next to me in the clinic's waiting room."Of course she's anxious, I don't know how she managed to wait a week for this appointment." Charlie rolled her eyes. “I would have already knocked on every available doctor in Vegas until I found one.”I couldn't help but laugh at her enthusiasm. I was nervous about what awaited me behind the closed door, but I didn't want to show it. I could handle a little anxiety.“Actually, I've spent the last week getting used to the idea” I shrugged “I guess I needed that time."And how is it going?" “Elle was interested.I shifted uncomfortably in the chair, thinking about my answer.“Well, I have to adapt. At first I was lost and not knowing what to do” I admitted it “but now, I know I have to keep going, I just don't know how to tell Theon.”"Haven't you called him yet?" Charlie watched me."I thought it best to wait for the appointment." I shrugged."Miss Hurst, the Doctor is ready for you," the rece

TheonA series of notifications arrived on my cell phone. Samantha had sent me a few messages. I opened them up, there were some pictures of a blood test on Samantha M. Hurst's name, and an ultrasound. It was already possible to see a human form there, despite being small and misshapen, the little being already had arms, legs and a head.My child.I locked the phone's screen and put it in my pocket before hurrying home. I needed to resolve this at once.I need to talk to Samantha. Maybe I should take advantage of Harper's trip to Denver tomorrow.Harper... What will she think about this story? God, what a mess!I walked into the house and went to the bathroom, a good shower would help me clear my head. As soon as I got out of the shower, I had managed to come up with an acceptable plan, I threw myself on the bed, taking out my cell phone to call my girlfriend."Hi Honey, did you forget something?"“Harper, hi… I got a problem to take care of over the weekend, so I have to travel tomor

SamanthaWe both ate in silence for a few minutes, and little by little I became better. He was there with me after all. That's a good sign, right? I'm not alone."I got the pictures you sent yesterday, are you already doing prenatal care? " Theon broke his silence after a few minutes, watching me with fun as I alternated between fish and meat."Yes, I started last week, Elle got an emergency appointment with her doctor—I forced myself to swallow what was in my mouth."And how was everything? — he seemed interested."I'm nine weeks now, she gave me some vitamins and I did other tests. It's okay, it's okay."And when are you born? " he asked."In early March," I recounted, siluting the glass of juice, the same month as my birthday."Really? Do you have your birthday in March? " he smiled.That question affected me, I don't know anything about the man I'm going to have a child with!"God, we know nothing about each other," I moaned disgusted.Theon seemed bland with that comment."I don

Theon Gregor and I left Vegas in the morning, but it was almost lunchtime when we arrived in Aspen. I dropped him off at his house before heading back to mine, letting Harper know that I had arrived before I got into the shower. My only desire at that moment was to sleep for the rest of the afternoon, but I was aware that if I delayed my conversation with my girlfriend any longer, I would lose the courage to tell her what I had discovered. As soon as I was out of the shower, I went to the kitchen, rummaging through the fridge for something for lunch while planning to visit Harper soon after. The sound of the front door being unlocked caught my attention, I closed the fridge and walked to the living room, almost bumping into Harper on the way. " Theon! Hi," she smiled as she saw me. She was wearing a blue plaid shirt and a scarf around her neck. Her hair was tied up simply, but she still managed to look beautiful with that easy smile on her lips. A smile that I would be taking off s

" You've got us curious," Lara smiled encouragingly. " Well, I got a call on Friday," I scratched my throat. " What kind of call? Business? " Liny questioned, concentrating on her food. " I'm going to be a father," I revealed bluntly, causing them all to freeze at the news. Liny had stopped her fork halfway to her mouth, staring at me in shock, while the others seemed to have a similar reaction. " What did you say? " my mother stammered. " I found out on Friday and am still trying to assimilate," I explained. " My God, Theon," Lara smiled, “How long has Harper been expecting?” "That's all the more reason for you to propose to her! " my grandmother pointed out cheerfully. " Harper is not pregnant," I corrected that misunderstanding. " Now I don't get it," Liny frowned. " I met a girl in Las Vegas during Gregor's bachelor party," I looked away to my almost untouched plate, "on Friday she called me to tell me that she is pregnant and that I am the father.” " You got a stranger
