Holy Cow!!! Had to POAS this morning 9dp5dt

So I've been really down because I've been POASing (Can't help myself) for a few days now, and it has been stark white. Yesterday I was pretty bummed and preparing myself for the bad news on beta day (Friday).
So DH and I are being selfish this year (thinking last year without kids, FX!) and going to Spain for Christmas and New Years. We leave on Sunday. So I'm almost out of PIO. If I needed more (as in a good beta on Friday) I wouldn't have time to get a refill before our trip leaving me in a BAD situation. So I tested this morning only for that reason. I was 100% positive that it would be stark white like the rest. But then I swear I saw a line. I made DH get out of bed and made him look. He saw something really faint also. 20 minutes later I was able to force myself to go again, and the second test came up with another faint line and quick this time!
YES!!!!! I can't even believe it. I feel like anything I do will jinx it. I will test again in the morning and beta is at 8:15.
