Chapter 5: Surprise and Deployment

2 months after the wedding


Seeley was at the base training. Temperance woke up not feeling to great. She felt like she was going to be sick. She ran to the bathroom and she threw up. After throwing up she brushed her teeth and thought of what would be making her sick. She thought back to their wedding night two months ago and then she realized she was late. She went to get dress and headed to the pharmacy to get a pregnancy test. She then went home and took it. She waited for the results and they came back positive and she then made a doctor appointment to confirm it before telling Seeley that she was not wanting to get his Hope's up if she wasn't yet.


Doctor appointment:
So it looks like you might be pregnant? Doctor Johnson asked
Yes and I want to be sure before I tell my husband. Temperance said
Okay let's do some test. Doctor Johnson said
