Misadventures
Emotions
It's been a year being on the road with these guys and I've been a little nauseous. Literally. It wasn't them it was more me. My body did this sometimes, I would get nauseous and not eat for a while. When the guys got back from a concert they brought me some takeout food, which I threw to the ground.
“Can't you see I'm not hungry?” I yelled at them.
I laughed.
“Oh, God, I'm so sorry.” I said.
Then I got more serious, but couldn't help laughing again.
“Um, Carolina? Are you okay?” Mike asked.
“Totally.” I replied, as I started to cry.
I made a realization at that point.
“I have to go.” I said, getting off the bus and into the crowd, Tony following me.
“Where do you need to go?” Tony asked.
“To the store.” I replied.
“Okay, I'll call a cab.” He said.
“Are you coming?” I asked.
“Yeah, is that okay?” He asked.
I smiled. “Yeah.” I said.
I actually didn't want him to come, because this was huge if something like this was happening. The cab came up and Tony and I got in, and went to the store, and as Tony started to get out I told him to stay in.
“Okay.” He said.
I went into the story looking for one thing. A pregnancy test. Tony and I had been sleeping together for a few months now, so stuff happened a few times to cause me being nauseous, hormonal, and well, possibly pregnant. I bought the pregnancy test. I was making some money off a blog I started, which was going well, something I could do in my spare time. When I got back in the cab, Tony was curious what I bought.
“Is that any of your business?” I asked with an attitude.
“Okay.” He said in a defensive voice.
“Sorry.” I said.
“It's okay.” He replied , holding my hand.
We got back to the tour bus and the guys greeted us, I hid my emotions behind a smile, Mike was standing in front of the bathroom door, and I ran to it.
“Move, bitch!” I said, rushing into the bathroom with the bag.
I brought the pregnancy test out and used it. After waiting a minute the results were right in front of my face. Positive. I felt every emotion you could possibly feel. Fear, happiness, confusion, overwhelmed. I heard a knock on the door, and quickly pulled my pants up.
“Um, Carolina? Are you okay?” Tony asked.
I rushed out of the bathroom.
“We're having a baby!” I yelled, showing him the pregnancy test, then hugging him.
As I let go of him he looked at me with shock and fainted.
“Oh my God, Tony!” I said, going to him.
The guys helped me get him to his bunk.
“Well, you guys are gonna be uncles now.” I said with a little chuckle, Jaime smiled, but under the circumstances, you know Tony being unconscious and all, we didn't really talk that much. After a few minutes, Tony woke back up and came into the room with us.
“So, we're having a baby?” He asked me.
“Yeah.” I replied.
He was silent for a second.
“I'm gonna be a dad!” He yelled. “And you guys, are going to be uncles!”
“She already told us that.” Vic said. “But, I guess this is a good thing, for all of us, we'll be a family.”
I looked at Vic, and he looked at me, with approval for once, and I hugged him.
Tony's POV
In the past year we started touring again, and as usual the fans went crazy. After the concert we got some takeout food for us and Carolina. When we got to the tour bus we gave Carolina the food, but when Mike handed her the food she threw it to the ground yelling that she wasn't hungry. She seemed pretty moody, so I figured it was that time of the month for her. Mike asked her if she was okay and she said yes, then saying she needed to go, getting off the bus, I followed her.
“Where do you need to go?” I asked her.
“To the store.” She replied.
I called a cab and she asked if I was coming, I said yes, but only if it was okay with her, which it was. When we got to the store she insisted I stay in the cab which I thought was strange but I could sort of understand, she didn't want me to see her buy pads, I get it. When she came back out I asked her what she bought.
“Is that any of your business?” She said with an attitude.
“Sorry.” I said.
Now that I think about it, it really wasn't any of my business. We got back to the bus and Carolina was acting a bit strange. She ran to the bathroom and told Mike to move, it's like he's this months victim.
“Dude, do you know what was in that bag?” Mike asked.
“Probably woman stuff, pads. You know.” I replied.
“Dude, what if she's pregnant?” Vic said.
“She's not.” I replied.
“How do you know?” he asked. “You don't know that that's not a pregnancy test she has with her right now.”
I hated to think he was right, but he was. Carolina was in the restroom for a while, so I knocked on the door and asked if she was okay. She quickly opened the door, showing me a pregnancy test.
“We're having a baby!” She said, hugging me.
I hugged her back, but I was pretty stiff, and well, shocked. After she was done hugging me I fainted. I remember dreaming, I dreamed of Carolina and I being a family, with a kid, I felt myself smile in my sleep, then I woke up and went into the front room with Carolina and the guys.
“So, we're having a baby?” I asked her.
“Yeah.” She replied, looking worried about what I was going to say next.
I was silent for a moment, I wanted to build the suspense.
“I'm going to be a dad!” I yelled. “And you guys, are going to be uncles!”
