Chapter Two: Shock
Carlos Sainz x Rosa Romero
-> A trip to the doctor brings up memories from Monaco as well as shocking news that Rosa didn't see coming.
word count: 2.1k
warnings: mentions of sex, throwing up, rough upbringing, doctor's visit, blood work, pregnancy
a/n: ok but Carlos at the end makes me cry he's so sweet
Present Day
“Congratulations, it appears as though you are pregnant!” the woman in the white coat said to Rosa, her voice filled with so much joy, you would’ve thought she was the pregnant one. “Your bloodwork looked excellent, the baby seems to be about four weeks old based on your hCg levels shown on page two of this packet” she said with a beaming smile before handing over the small five page packet to Rosa. “I’ve included a list of all the best OBGYN’s in the Madrid area. I highly recommend choosing from this list, though it is just a suggestion of course”
Rosa looked up at the brown haired woman standing in front of her, a blank expression on her face as you tried to wrap your mind around everything she had just said to you in the past 30 seconds.
Pregnant. Four weeks.
As the doctor continued to run through the blood work with Rosa, your mind wandered elsewhere, tuning her voice out as you thought back to exactly what happened four weeks ago.
Monaco. By far one of the richest places Rosa has ever been to. Beyond that, it was one of the races on the F1 calendar that your best friend, Carlos Sainz, had wanted to win the most.
Monaco was a historical place in Formula 1- all the best drivers had won there. Lauda, Prost, Senna, Schumacher, Hamilton, you name any of the greats of Formula 1 and that track was probably one they had succeeded at.
Carlos always wanted to be on that winning list alongside all of his childhood heroes and that weekend four weeks ago, he had finally done just that.
The race had started out wet, the conditions almost undriveable. Rosa stood in the garage, too nervous to sit as she watched Carlos round each corner of the race track, never making any mistake despite how slippery the track surface was.
When he crossed the finish line as the checkered flag flew above him, Rosa couldn't help but find herself getting a bit emotional.
Rosa had met Carlos during high school, shortly before he had entered Formula 3. She had a rough home life, so she typically tried to spend as little time as possible at home, which Carlos had noticed when she started following him to the go-kart track after school everyday.
At first, Carlos didn’t question it- it wasn’t uncommon for people to sit in the stands and watch as he and a few other local karting drivers practiced in the late afternoon on weekdays.
However when he noticed that she wouldn’t leave when he did, that’s when his questions started to arise.
The two of them had become pretty close over a short period of time- mainly due to the fact that after each practice, he would invite her to grab a quick bite to eat or to see a movie with him before he headed home for the night.
Carlos had become Rosa’s best friend and the person she trusted most in this world- after all, he was still the only person to this day who knew how horrible her family was to her. He was the one who would save Rosa from them day in and day out, especially when her dad tried to make an appearance back into her life during graduation.
After high school, Rosa and Carlos had bought a house together. Rosa needed to get out of her mothers house as quickly as possible, and Carlos wanted his own place to stay after traveling around the world week after week, so it all worked out in the end.
Fast forward ten years later, Carlos was driving for Ferrari, the two of them remained best friends, and still lived in that house they had bought fresh out of high school.
After embracing Carlos in a hug and congratulating him on such a big achievement, Carlos had mentioned a party at a local Monaco club called Jimmyz. Never saying no to a good after party, Rosa went back to the hotel and got ready for what you knew was going to be a long night out.
A long night out it was indeed.
The night had started out with several shots of tequila with Carlos and a few members from his team as well as his teammate, Charles- probably way too many tequila shots, but after a race like that, who wouldn’t want to get drunk off tequila?
As the night progressed, Rosa and Carlos had separated in the bar- he went off to drink some beers with his competitors while she went to the dance floor, hoping to dance away the pounding headache she had from all that tequila that had been consumed so early in the night.
Before Rosa knew it though, she was in the arms of a stranger. Looking back on it now, she couldn’t even remember what the man looked like, let alone his name or the sound of his voice.
One thing led to another and she found herself having a one night stand with the mystery man from Jimmyz just before her flight left at 5am.
“Any questions?” the doctor asked, a smile still shining across her face, her voice still filled with joy and excitement.
Rosa looked up at her and shook her head, Rosa’s grip on the papers in her hand becoming a bit tighter as she tried to hold back her tears. “No, thank you. Can I head home now?”
The girl nodded, handing Rosa a small little card. “This is my email if you or your OBGYN have any questions about this appointment or any of the blood work, ok?”
Rosa nodded a little, taking the small rectangle piece of paper out of the doctor’s hand and slipping it into her purse before giving her a faint smile. “Thank you, have a nice day” she said quietly before walking out of the room, needing to get out of the small space and breathe some fresh air.
As Rosa walked outside, she was met with the hot and humid air that engulfed all of madrid- nothing too uncommon for the month of July. The sun was beaming down on her, making it feel ten times hotter out than it actually was.
When she climbed into her car, she immediately turned the air conditioning on, hoping that it would cool her off in some way before she had to make the drive home.
As Rosa started making the drive home- one that was about ten minutes long- she couldn’t help but let her mind travel as she turned her car left and right, navigating through the roads of Madrid.
She thought about how Carlos would react to the news.
Would he ask her to leave, insisting that a child in his home would be too much of a distraction?
Would he be ashamed of her for making such a stupid mistake?
What would his family think when they found out… After all, they were like family to her now, the last thing she would want is for them to be disappointed in her.
She couldn’t help but think about what horrible upbringing she had. Her dad walking out on her when she was eight, her mother becoming an alcoholic, and her sister completely forgetting about her the minute she turned 18, leaving Rosa alone in the horrible hands of her mother, wishing for an escape.
Rosa thought about how the child growing inside of her would also grow up without a father- something she had always promised herself she would never let your children go through.
Rosa felt like a failure already- like she was the worst mother to walk the face of the earth, despite only learning she was a mother nearly twenty minutes ago.
Rosa hit one of her hands against the steering wheel out of frustration, feeling angry with herself for making such poor decisions four weeks ago.
As she approached the gates to her driveway, she rolled the window down, feeling the warm air trying to suffocate her as she entered the 5 digit pin, watching as the gates opened, allowing her to drive through.
She pulled into your garage stall, turning the car off before grabbing her purse and wiping her damp cheeks with the back of her hands.
As she got out of the car, Rosa took a deep breath, hoping Carlos wouldn’t sense anything was wrong, though she knew he would, he could read her like the back of his hand.
When she finally made it inside, she hung her purse and keys up on the hooks by the door before slipping out of her tennis shoes and walking into the kitchen to grab herself a glass of water.
After grabbing the glass of water as well as a granola bar, Rosa made her way up the stairs and to her bedroom, which just so happened to be located right next to Carlos’ office.
As Rosa approached her room, she heard Carlos talking, almost as if he was on the phone. When she walked past his office door, she was thankful to see that he was in a zoom meeting with his team, which meant he would be distracted for a little while, allowing her some time alone to process the day's events.
Rosa set her water and granola bar onto her nightstand before climbing into bed, a deep sigh of relief falling from her lips as her back hit the mattress, allowing her very tense body to relax a bit.
Rosa’s relaxation didn’t last very long, though. After just about five minutes of silence, Carlos had knocked on her door.
“Cariño, can I come in please?” he whispered, unsure if she was asleep or not.
At first, Rosa remained silent, hoping that maybe he would walk away if she didn’t answer, but she knew better than that. Carlos would come in and kiss her forehead goodnight if he thought she was asleep- it's what he’s always done. “Come in” she finally said, sitting up against her headboard as she watched the handle turn slowly.
“Sorry, I’m sure you want space right now, but I just had to see with my own two eyes that you were ok” he admitted, sitting on the edge of the bed as he looked up at her. He could tell that Rosa was far from ok, though he knew she had no desire to talk about it right now.
“I’m ok, Carlos. Don’t worry about me” Rosa whispered, her hand reaching out to touch his, almost as a thank you for checking up on her.
“It’s my job to worry about you, hermosa. You’re my best friend, I always worry. Especially after how much you threw up this morning…”
Rosa laughed a little, giving his hand a squeeze. “We can talk about this a bit later once I'm feeling better, ok? I’ll go through the paperwork the doctor gave me.. For now, I could really use a good Carlos cuddle while watching a movie… what do you say?”
Carlos smiled and climbed under the covers, holding his arms out to her. “You know that I never turn down a movie night”
“But it’s daytime,” Rosa said, a small laugh escaping her.
Carlos jokingly rolled his eyes. “My bad, madam. I never turn down a good movie afternoon”
Rosa laughed and cuddled into him, her arms wrapping tightly around his torso as she rested her head on his chest.
Carlos wrapped his arms around her and turned on a random movie that was on their netflix suggested before pulling the covers up over the two of them. “Let me know if you need anything, ok?” he whispered before placing a kiss to the top of her head.
Rosa gave Carlos a gentle nod. “I will, Carlos. I will.” she whispered, closing her eyes as she had finally relaxed in the comfort of Carlos' arms. For just a slight moment, she had forgotten all about the events earlier in the day.
She had forgotten about Carlos catching her hunched over the toilet at 6am.
She had forgotten about Carlos encouraging her to visit the doctor.
She had forgotten about her trip to the doctors office, the blood work, the waiting for answers, and the pure shock that washed over her when the word's "you're pregnant" echoed through the small room.
For just a moment she had forgotten all about her Monaco mistakes, from the tequila to the bathroom sex.
For just a moment she had forgotten about her worries of the future, one that would include her child growing up without a father, her fear of being anything like her mother, and the struggles of raising a child alone.
The moment however, didn't last long. Guilt had suddenly washed over her as she laid in Carlos' arms. Carlos had been her best friend for nearly 12 years, yet she couldn't bear to tell him the news she had received an hour prior to this very moment. She couldn't hide this from him, it wasn't fair to him. He deserved to know what was going on, even if it meant that he saw her differently than he had all of these years.
"I'm pregnant with a stranger's baby" Rosa finally whispered, guilt persuading her to expose her secret.

Chapter One: Weeks Prior
Carlos Sainz x Rosa Romero
-> what happened weeks prior to the news that would change everything in Rosa's life.
word count: 2060
warnings: mentions of sex, drinking, alcohol, bars, clubbing, Mick's Monaco crash, not proof read, good translated spanish
a/n: I am super excited for you all to discover the world of Rosa and Carlos<3
Four weeks ago
Rosa Romero looked up at the dark sky as the thunder cracked through, followed by a heavy downfall of rain, soaking her once dry body as she began running through the paddock.
It was currently 2 pm in Monaco, meaning there was an hour left until lights out- if the start of the race wasn’t delayed due to the harsh weather conditions that had creeped upon them with such short notice.
When Rosa finally reached the garage, shivering from the cold rain that had covered her from head to toe, she made her way towards Carlos, hoping that he had a spare hoodie or something of the sort in his driver room. “Carlos” she said, gently tapping on the Spaniard's shoulder.
“Hm?” he asked as he turned around, his jaw immediately falling open when he saw just how soaked she had managed to get while going to the bathroom. “Rosie, what happened to you”
Rosa rolled her eyes, clearly irritated and wanting nothing more than to get out of her soaking clothes before the start of the race. “It decided to start pouring down rain on my way back from the bathroom.. Do you have a spare hoodie or something in your room? I’m freezing…”
Carlos couldn’t help but laugh a little before giving her a quick nod. “Always. It should be on my bench in there but if it’s not, text me and i’ll come help you find it”
“Thank you” she muttered to her friend before walking off to his driver room.
Charles laughed a little and looked over at his teammate. “You know I still don’t believe it when you tell me that you two aren't a couple”
Carlos raised an eyebrow at his teammate, curious as to why he was saying such things. “What do you mean?”
“Well you two act like a married couple, hell you two even live together, mate. You can’t tell me after sharing a house for almost ten years that the two of you don’t have some sort of feelings for each other”
Carlos rolled his eyes “how many times do I have to tell you, Rosie and I are just friends. Best friends. That’s all we have ever been”
“Whatever mate, but if you posted an engagement announcement tomorrow, I wouldn’t be surprised. That is all i’m saying” Charles said before walking off, heading over to his car to get ready for the race.
When Rosa came back into the garage looking much more relaxed than before, Carlos smiled a little and walked over to her, giving her a hug. “Sorry about your outfit, cariño. I know you put a lot of effort into it this morning”
Rosa shrugged, wrapping her arms around him as she looked up at him, her chin resting on his chest. “It’s alright. It’ll dry. I’m more worried about you driving around Monaco in the rain than I am my clothes… have they delayed the start of the race yet?”
Carlos shook his head, pulling from the embrace as he pulled up the rest of his race suit and zipped it up. “No, they said that track conditions aren’t as bad as they appear to be so we are racing today”
Rosa nodded a little, clearly hesitant at the idea but knowing her opinions wouldn’t stop Carlos from getting into the car.
“Ok, well just promise me you’ll be safe out there… I’d like to have you come back here in one piece, please. I can’t bring you back home to your parents all broken and bruised, what kind of babysitter would I be?” she said with a smirk, knowing Carlos hated when she claimed to be babysitting him weekend after weekend.
“Oh shut up and give me my helmet” he said as he jokingly rolled his eyes, a small smirk appearing on his face, too.
Rosa handed Carlos his helmet and balaclava before stepping back, giving him some space to finish getting race ready.
When Carlos was finally ready to get in the car, he held his arms out for Rosa, getting one last hug from her before he would be racing around a track for almost two hours. “All jokes aside, I promise I'll drive safely out there. I’d like to go celebrate at Jimmyz later, not be stuck up in some hospital bed. I’ll see you after, ok?”
Rosa nodded and hugged him tightly before heading over to her chair that was tucked in the corner of the garage- out of the way of mechanics, engineers, and any other team member who might be walking through- where she always watched the race.
Carlos climbed into his Ferrari before driving out to the grid, swerving on his way in efforts to get his tires warmed up.
Normally, the national anthem would occur at this point, but due to the storm, they had decided to skip pre- race ceremonies and cut straight to the race.
The formation lap had started once all of the cars had made it onto the grid. By then, Rosa had put her headphones on so she could hear everything being communicated by Carlos and his race engineer, Riccardo.
“This track is super wet, mate. I have the advantage with being on pole, but anyone behind me isn’t going to be able to see a thing”
“Copy, Carlos. Understood. The stewards still want to proceed with the race start, we will just have to wait and see what they say after lap one. Try not to think about everyone behind you, focus on your driving, ok?”
“Copy” Carlos stated before going silent on the radio as he waited for the lights to go out.
Rosa anxiously picked at the skin around her nails- a bad habit she always seemed to resort to whenever she was nervous. Races typically didn’t scare her -after all these were 20 of the best drivers in the world, they knew how to race and they typically did it properly. On top of that, these cars had never been safer- Something about a wet Monaco Grand Prix just didn’t sit right with her for some reason.
As she watched all of the lights go out, Carlos immediately accelerated off of his line, zooming into turn one before anyone behind him could even come close to catching him. Carlos was right- the spray was horrible. The camera’s followed Carlos as he was about to enter the tunnel, though you couldn’t see a single car behind him.
The first couple of laps were a bit of a disaster with cars slipping and sliding everywhere, a few of which did end up touching the barrier, though the chaos did seem to calm down a bit after that.
Things had been going smoothly for Carlos until lap 23 when he almost crashed into Checo, but thankfully Carlos was quick enough to react and avoided colliding with the redbull.
Lap 26 had the whole paddock silent for a brief moment as they watched Mick Schumacher collide into the barrier, his car splitting in two which ended up bringing out the red flag.
Despite all of the madness that had happened throughout the race, Carlos never lost focus. After the session had resumed, he was able to overtake Checo into turn one, taking the lead from him with just a few laps to go.
Rosa had never been so happy for Carlos. Carlos had always wanted to win at Monaco, then again which F1 driver didn’t want to win Monaco. This particular race track was such a historic place in the sport, all of the greats one here and Carlos had always wanted to be on that list beside all of his heroes. Now, he could proudly say he was a Monaco Grand Prix winner.
“Oh my god!! Thank you guys! We did it! We won in Monaco!!!” Carlos said, on the verge of tears as he did one slow lap around the track.
Mattia came onto the radio and congratulated him, his engineer told him how proud he was of him, and finally, Rosa asked if she could say something to Carlos.
Mattia nodded and handed her his headset before pressing the button to connect her to Carlos.
“Mi vida!!! lo hiciste, estoy muy orgullosa de ti” Rosa said with a huge smile on her face. (you did it, i’m so proud of you)
“gracias, gracias por estar aquí, gracias por apoyarme, gracias por todo. No puedo esperar para abrazarte cuando salga de aquí" Carlos said, his voice breaking as he finally let his tears of joy fall down his face. (thank you, thank you for being here, thank you for supporting me, thank you for everything. I can’t wait to hug you when I get out of here)
Rosa smiled and took off the headset before running over to where the cars were parked. She watched as Carlos climbed out of his car, standing on top of it as he threw his fists in the air before jumping down and running into the arms of his team. You couldn’t help but smile as you watched their interactions, knowing that out of all of the teams Carlos has been with since joining Formula 1, Ferrari had felt the most like home to him.
Carlos then ran over to Rosa and engulfed her in a big hug. “I did it, cariño. I did it” he whispered, still holding onto her tightly.
Rosa smiled and patted his helmet gently. “You did it. I’m so proud of you!”
“Hope you’re ready to celebrate at Jimmyz in an hour's time. A win means tequila shots, I hope you’re ready”
Rosa laughed and nodded. “I’m always up for a good party. Now go get that trophy so we can go get ready!”
Carlos laughed and ran up the steps that led him to the back of the podium, anxiously awaiting for them to call his name. When they finally did so, Carlos ran onto the podium, the biggest smile on his face as he took his place on the top step. The drivers were given their trophies, the national anthems of Spain and Italy played through the speakers, and the champagne was sprayed in celebration of a tough, yet successful race.
-
Rosa had put on her red loose fitting dress, one that she typically always wore to the bar or the club just because she felt most confident in it and it wasn’t anything too fancy nor too casual. She didn’t put on any makeup or do her hair- what was the point in looking presentable when in two hours time she would look like a mess from all the alcohol she consumed anyways?
As Rosa and Carlos approached Jimmyz, arms locked together, they could hear the roar of the music that was blaring through the speakers inside. “I know this is a big win, but we can’t get too drunk, alright? We have a plane to catch at 5am and we both need to be sober enough to make it onto the plane, ok?”
Carlos laughed and nodded. “Whatever you say, Rosie. But you are doing a couple shots with me- it's our race winning tradition”
Rosa gave his arm a gentle squeeze and nodded. “Of course I will, I never turn down tequila shots” she said with a smirk before walking inside with him, following him to the area he had reserved for everyone who planned on attending.
Within the first hour the two of you had arrived, you had already done six tequila shots together- far too many, but he just won Monaco, so who cared, right?
By hour two, everything was pretty much a haze to Rosa- 3 margaritas and 6 tequila shots in and she was starting to even forget her own name.
By hour three, Rosa had met some random mystery man whom she didn’t recognize, though when he offered her a drink, she didn’t say no.
By hour four, Rosa had found herself in the bathroom with said mystery man, having the sex of her life.
By hour five, Rosa and Carlos had left the bar together, needing to head to their hotel to sober up a bit before their flight left in 2 hours time.
Little did Rosa know, that night in particular had changed her life forever.

Chapter Three- You've Got Me

The moment those words had fallen so casually from Rosa’s lips, the room had fallen silent.
Carlos didn’t say a word.
Rosa didn’t say a word.
The only sound that echoed between the four walls of her bedroom was their breathing. Rosa’s was fast and shaky.
Carlos’ was calm and steady.
Rosa wasn’t sure when Carlos had paused the movie, she hadn’t noticed it until just now, when she had managed to catch a glance over at the screen which was completely still.
The silence wasn’t awkward, nor was it comfortable- it was almost as if it was a mutual silence, one that both of you had settled upon together, neither knowing what to say or do next.
Rosa didn’t want to say anything else out of fear of overwhelming Carlos- the news she had thrown on him was already big enough.
Carlos didn’t want to say anything out of fear of upsetting Rosa- he wasn’t quite sure what was ok to ask and what was better left in his head.
After lying in each other's arms, silent as mice for nearly twenty minutes, Rosa sat up, removing her arms from Carlos’ torso as she went to climb out of bed.
“Where are you going?” Carlos asked, his gaze following hers as she walked towards the bedroom door.
“I can’t sit in silence any longer, my head is going to explode. I’m gonna go grab something to drink, do you want anything?” she asked, turning around to face Carlos for the first time since telling him the news.
Carlos looked into her eyes from across the room- he could see the exhaustion and the fear already present despite only learning her fate an hour or two prior. Carlos wanted her to open up to him, but also knew that she would do it on her own time and that he couldn’t force it. This was a waiting game, he would have to be patient and give her the time that she needed, even if he didn’t want to. “Come lay back down, i’ll go get us some drinks and snacks, sound good?”
Rosa looked at him for a moment, almost as though she was hesitant at his offer, but she eventually caved and made her way back to the now vacant bed as Carlos had moved over towards the door. “Carlos?” she said quietly, stopping him before he had even opened the door.
“Yeah?”
“There is a small packet of paperwork on the table by my purse, if you bring it up here I’ll explain what I do know to you, though there isn’t much at the moment, so I can’t promise I can answer all of your questions, but i’ll answer as many as I can, ok?”
Carlos nodded a little, shooting her a gentle smile before walking out the door and closing it gently behind him.
Carlos made his way down the stairs and quickly looked through the cabinets for some snacks. He stood there for a moment, running through all of his options before pulling out his phone and googling what snacks were best for pregnant women- he wanted to make sure that Rosa was taking care of herself and the baby the best she could, since it was obvious she was under an immense amount of stress.
Reading that nuts, greek yogurt, and berries were among the top ten best foods for pregnant women, Carlos grabbed a jar of peanuts out of the pantry and then headed over to the fridge to grab blueberries and some greek yogurt as well as two small bottles of orange juice.
Carlos placed all of the items on a tray as well as the packet of paper work before carrying the tray up the stairs, careful not to trip on his way up, something he was prone to doing from time to time.
When he reached your bedroom door, he gently knocked, wanting to make sure it was ok for him to come in, rather than barging in and invading Rosa’s space. After a loud ‘come in’ echoed out into the hallway, Carlos opened the door and walked in, placing the tray down on the dresser. “Ok so, I googled what the best snacks for pregnant women are and nuts, berries and greek yogurt were top of the list, I brought you all three because I wasn’t exactly sure what you would be in the mood for, if you don’t want any of these, that’s fine too, just tell me what you want and I can go get it for you” he said, a proud smile on his face as he looked at her.
Rosa looked up at Carlos, almost as if she was frozen, unable to form a sentence. Instead, she burst into tears.
Carlos' smile faded and he walked over to her, sitting on the bed. “Cariño I didn’t mean to make you cry…i’ll bring the food back downstairs just tell me what you want…”
Rosa shook her head, putting her hands up to her face as she continued to sob, still unable to form a proper sentence.
Carlos pulled her into a tight hug and rubbed her back gently, kissing the top of her head occasionally as he did so. Carlos refrained from saying another word out of fear of upsetting Rosa any further.
When Rosa had finally collected herself and calmed down a bit, she looked pulled from the hug and wiped her tears away with her sleeve. “I-im sorry, I didn’t mean to break down like that… it’s just… what you did is really sweet… the fact that you care that much about me and well… my baby its just…it’s really sweet of you Carlos”
Carlos tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear before wiping a few of her stray tears away. “Of course I care about you, both of you. I want to make sure you are both taken care of as much as I can, if it takes any weight off of your shoulders, i’m happy to do it, cariño. Always. Now do any of these three sound good?”
Rosa sniffled and nodded a little. “Can I have the blueberries please?”
Carlos nodded and handed her over the small dish of blueberries he had brought up as well as her orange juice just in case. “Anything else you want off of this tray?”
Rosa looked over and noticed the packet sitting underneath the jar of peanuts and she gave a small nod. “Hand me the packet, please?” she asked, holding her hand open for the packet.
Carlos nodded, grabbing it off the tray and passing it to her before he sat back down on the bed again.
“You can ask me anything, you know. I know you have questions, I want to be as honest with you as I can be..”
Carlos nodded a little, eating a few peanuts out of the jar. “How far along are you? Do you know that yet?”
Rosa nodded a little, picking through the bowl of blueberries. “Four weeks”
Carlos put another peanut in his mouth, his mind wandering off to what could have possibly happened four weeks ago. “Monaco…” he whispered, finally putting two and two together.
“Yup… Monaco.” Rosa whispered, looking down at her bowl of blueberries.
“Do you… nevermind” Carlos said quietly, looking back down at the jar of peanuts.
“Do I know how it happened? Yeah, I do. I hooked up with some random guy in the bathroom of Jimmyz.. It’s horrible, I know”
Carlos shook his head, his hand resting on Rosa’s knee gently. “It’s not horrible. Everyone does it, you were drunk, you didn’t know any better”
Rosa sighed and put her blueberries onto her nightstand. “It is horrible, Carlos. I have no idea who the guy is, no idea what he looks like, what his name is, I was too drunk to even know my own name. My child is going to grow up without a father just like I did… It was the one thing I never wanted for my future children and now look at me… my mistake is going to make my child’s life a living hell… I’m a horrible mother already…”
Carlos shook his head and sat directly in front of Rosa, tilting her chin up with his pointer finger, looking right into her eyes. “Cariño” he whispered, his hand traveling to rest on her cheek. “You are a wonderful mother already. The fact that you are worried about your child growing up without a father, proves that. In terms of the father situation, while your child might not have its biological dad, it will have me, that I can promise you. I might not be its father, but I will be here every step of the way to help you raise him or her. I won’t let you do this alone, Rosie. Please, let me help you do this… let me take some weight off of your shoulders…” he whispered, almost as if he was begging her. “Let me sit with you at the appointments, let me get your random cravings at 3am, let me build a nursery in our home, let me hold your hand while you bring your child into this world…”
And just like that, the waterworks had begun once more. Rosa fell into Carlos’ arms, burying her face into the crook of his neck as she allowed herself to have yet another break down.
Carlos was right.
As always, Carlos was there to catch Rosa, comfort her, and help her calm down once again. Just as he had always done ever since the pair met.
Once again, Carlos had picked Rosa up off her feet.
Once again, Carlos had saved Rosa.
Soon enough, Carlos would do the same for the little boy or the little girl growing inside of Rosa.
The baby wouldn’t have its father, but it would certainly have Carlos, and that was good enough for her.
