Chapter 8: Celebrating Happy Moments

Sam


After Alaska, we head to Las Vegas to celebrate Nate and Alex's engagement. I'm happy for them but I'm still not feeling right. I decide to visit an urgent care clinic while the others get supplies for tonight. What I learned shocked me. When I arrive back at the hotel, the party is in full swing.


"Hey, babe. Want a drink?" Colby asks. "Babe?" "Sam?"


He pulls me into a side room.


"Sam? What's going on? You're scaring me!"


"I'm sorry. I just spaced out for a second," I say.


"Are you sure?" he asks.


"Positive. I love you," I say, smiling.


"Sam, what's going on? Please tell me," he says.


"Alright. I went to urgent care," I say.


"What? why?" he asks.


"I still wasn't feeling well. But I didn't anyone to worry," I say.


"Why didn't you tell me? I would've gone with you," he says.


"I didn't want to distract from the celebration," I say.


"Did they figure anything out?"


"Yes," I say, smiling.


"Well, you're smiling so it must be good news," he says.


"Colby, I'm pregnant. About six weeks," I say.


"Oh my god!" he shouts, smiling too.


The others come rushing in at the sound of his shout.


"Is everything okay?" Nate asks.


"Yes, everything's great," Colby says, hugging me.


"What happened?" Nate asks.


"I'm pregnant," I say.


"What?!" "Oh my god!" Nate and Alex shout at the same time.


They both hug us at the same time.


"Well, we have more to celebrate then."


We head back to the main room. Nate and Alex head over to the bar but Colby says by my side.


"Are you doing okay?" Colby asks.


"Wonderful," I say.


"This is amazing but hard to believe," he says.


"I know. But I'm so happy," I say.


"Me too," he says, pulling him in for a kiss.


He kisses me back and I pull him closer.


"Got a room you two!" Nate yells, chuckling.


We pull apart, laughing. A few hours later, Colby and I crawl into bed and he pulls me close.


"I love you, Sam. And I love this little baby."


"I love you too Colbs, I love you both so much."


I kiss him and curl up beside him.
