Just one night Meeting him
ANDY’S POVI block my eyes from the sun with my hand as I get up from the bed.I decided to sleep with the light on and I forgot to shut the window last night before I went to sleep, so the blinding sun greets me with a subtle threat of blindness.I put a slight pressure on my eye to ease the sleepiness before climbing out of the bed.It was hard to fall asleep last night because my mind didn’t stop replaying the events of that day and when I finally fell asleep, I did not know.Thankfully the exhaustion played a huge part, so I think I had a pretty good sleep.I decided to try some job hunting as I knew I needed a better paying job since I was literally working for two now.But what company or restaurant or anybody would take a pregnant woman that would work for less hours and still pay really well.But now that I think about it, I do have to meet Drake in the evening and if I went job hunting I might exhaust myself before noon and I did not want to put my baby at risk.I decided to
Just one night Insanity
ANDY’S POVI gulp down the bottle of water as I wait for the bus to arrive. The sun these days have not been friendly, and thankfully too, because I don’t think I could bare a cold weather.I had missed the first bus so I had to wait for the second one.I was feeling tired already and I couldn’t wait to just get home. I didn’t want to seat down because the station seats were not looking like they wanted to be sat on.I can’t even try to think about the last time this place has been cleaned. It’s so dusty and dirty and there is trash everywhere. What’s worse, it is on the seat.Isn’t that a crime or something?Well you can’t know what is a crime and what is not when people like Drake are walking on the face of the earth.Who tries to literally take out the mother of his child? I don’t even want to know his reasons or anything, but you just don’t try over and over again to take someone’s life.For what?To cover your tracks? To keep your reputation? I just can’t wrap my head around this
Just one night Secrets of the past
DRAKE’S POV“Call me when you get home alright?” Matthew states sending me a knowing look as he steals a quick glance at Stephanie.I shake my head slightly, still standing on what I said.I knew Andy was just trying to drive a wedge between Stephanie and I and it wasn’t going to work.Maybe I still had my doubts about her, but there is no way she is some sort of mole in my life. Even if she was, I would have known since the first time I set my eyes on her.I didn’t even have time to think about that, because now I had to focus on getting better and get my body back to normal.Whatever this curse is, it is annoying me. It is not a necessity to have a child. If I don’t want one, then it should be easy to get rid of it.No need for all of this back and forth.If I wasn’t paralyzed right now and I didn’t have these side effects I would have thought it was all a ruse and she was trying to get through to me for my money.But Andy doesn’t even look like she is a money freak, but I have come
Just one night More frustration
ANDY’S POV“I’m sorry Miss, but they are no vacancies at this point” The manager tells me and walks back into his office and I sigh, running my hand through my hair as my frustration runs through my veins.You have got to be kidding me. This is the fifth café today and I was getting exhausted. At this point I think I am out of breath.None of the cafes has had any vacancies, even the ones that had a huge billboard with the words clearly written, still told me they didn’t have any vacancies for me.I know Drake must have something to do with it, it’s been three days already and almost every shop in town and none of them agreed to give me a job.I would have to go out of town and maybe take an afternoon shift, because I would have to used all morning to get to work.But I think I need to go home now. My legs are beginning to hurt so bad and I just need to sit down. I decide to seat on one of the chairs in the café and take a rest. I rest my head against the table. I guess I can rest my
Just one night Involvement
DRAKE’S POVMy hands swipe across my table in frustration and the files on it go flying to the floor, the cup of tree crashes to the floor.“I didn’t tell you to get a teenager involved!” I yell at him as he stands stoic and unmoving.“He wasn’t-““Shut up! Your main focus is her! Nobody else but her! Ruin HER life!” I was getting more and more frustrated by the second.Why can’t she just be wiped off the face of the earth? Why does she have to be breathing?And this…this idiot just had to get a teenager involved.“Wait…did she…by any chance, call my name?” I ask him. My reputation was still on the line here and my father’s approval of me.If he knew I was doing something like this, I am not sure he is going to approve. But I have to do what I have to do. It would break my father if he found out I got an ONS pregnant and probably make marrying Stephanie a little hard.If he found out, he might have to force me to marry Andy and I don’t even want to stay ten seconds with that living, b
Just one night Panic? seperations?
DRAKE’S POVStephanie helps me get settled in bed quietly as once again try to get some sleep.It was getting to a tradition now, but I still wasn’t used to this. I wasn’t used to this at all.No matter how sleepy I was, the deeper I try to fall into a deep slumber, the louder the cries get.Then I know what’s coming next. The tightness in my neck and the tight congestions in my chest area.Multiple times the doctor had said I was fine, and there were no symptoms of what I was complaining about. Even after observation, results came out the same.It was starting to look like anytime I was getting a check up or trying to get treated by the hospital, the symptoms disappear, but when I get home. It is a whole different story.Something new has to happen every two days and sometimes persist for the whole week. Three months into this lifestyle and I still can’t predict what happens next. Except for the ones that had seemed consistent.I wasn’t getting any better and that was a fact. But And
Just one night Numbness
DRAKE’S POVShe stands to her feet and walks to the other side of the room and looked out the window making me frown.“She always bragged about it in school and said she would be able to trap any man with it. It was a big flex of us” She turns around to look at me as I stare with a petrified look on my face.“Wh…what do you mean?” I frown.“I mean…she cursed you on purpose Drake” She Informs me and crossed her arms and my throat constricts as it begins to tighten.Why did she have to say it with so much… fierceness.That was too scary.I heave as my breath hitches and my throat gets tighter.Why am I so affected by this? Why does it hurt so much to know? I should have known this.I should have expected this to happen. Why am I so shocked? Why-?“Drake are you okay? Oh God, Drake…!” Her voice sounded a little distant and I could barely make anything of it.I focused on my breathing, simultaneously trying to stay away as I was slowly drifting.“Drake! Stay with me!” She yells at the top
Just one night Choices
STEPHANIE’S POVThere are a lot of things that one would have to do to live. Some things might seem despicable, and some things are just done because the universe wants it to happen.But either one it is, I’m going to do what I got to do.Not because I want to do it, but because I don’t have a choice. And as the saying goes, what is worth doing is what doing well.Because I don’t have a choice, then it is worth doing.My job got harder when Drake became paralyzed and couldn’t do anything for himself. It got annoying and frustrating when I had to be around him like every day and the only time I can be alone is when we are at work.I have to be some goody two shoes and I have to marry a man I barely know or love because that is the only way I can live.It’s pathetic, I know. But one of the worst things in life is when you don’t have any other choice but to do something. Because it is the only solution to salvage a situation.It’s pathetic to say the least and embarrassing too.I know on

Just one night Reality
DRAKE’S POVMatthew paces back and forth in the office and I could not help but envy him. If my legs were working right now, I would love to do that too.“Can you stop pacing? You are sending the wrong signals to my brain” I complain and he stops in his tracks, flopping down on the couch on the farthest part of the office.The urge to run my hand through my hair, or plant my face in my palm gnawed at me so hard, but my brain and my hands were not in sync at this point.It angered me beyond measure. Because for the first time in my life, I could not do anything. Literally.I can’t walk when I want to, and I can not move either. Not because I don’t want to, but because I am not able to.And it is all her fault. It is all Andy’s fault.

Just one night Ask for help
MATTHEW’S POVMy shoe raps against the floor repeatedly as I waited out of the hospital room where Drake was being attended to.I am still yet to wrap my head around this whole thing, because it is happening so fast, everything is going on so fast and I can not even grasp onto one thing.All of this doesn’t make sense to me. I did now want to believe it at all.At first, I thought Drake was faking a story to just get rid of a girl. But I did not see the need to question him about it because it wasn’t the first time.I thought when all of that was over and we got rid of her he would tell me the truth like he naturally did.But I would not get past the fact that this was his actual first time of trying to get rid of a girl that he had slept with.Because all the girls he got with only spent the night with it and used it as some sort of flex. It was what happened when we got down with them.So how it got to all of this I what baffles me beyond measure. It was getting more serious as the

Just one night She hates me
ANGELA’S POVI bang my head against the headrest repeatedly as her words ring in my ear.Does he know?Does he know who you really are?I didn’t think she would play that card. Cripes I didn’t even think she would go that far.I could barely recognize Andy, infact I no longer know who she was. At first as I was confused. I was not sure if I was talking to the same Andy that I once knew.What changed?Why did she start to use such vile words?All I tried to do was protect her and her baby, but she was too far gone to listen.I had to go what I had to do.

What would have happened if I got home to meet Claudia dead or something?That was why I got so pissed and angry at him. He took it way too far.But who am I kidding? For someone who could send a serial killer to my house, he could literally do the impossible at this point.I run a hand through my hair as I get to bus station. I could not stop pacing back and forth as I waited for the bus.Too far Drake. Too far.The ride home took so long that I took a nap on the bus.

Just one night Series of pain
DRAKE’S POV“Glad to finally get your attention Andy” I state as she bolts into my office. I think I have to change the door though.“Looks like slashing your tires wasn’t enough” She seethes as she closes the distance between us. Her hand lands across my face in quick succession.Her hand hurt so bad that I wanted to hold her hand to stop her, but my hands would not move.Luckily, Matthew comes in and pulls her away from me.“What is wrong with you?” He raises his voice at her causing her to give him a slap of his own.Matthew staggers backwards holding his face with a groan.“She slaps hard” He winces.“Put your hands on me one more time and see if I hit harder or not” She states at the top of her voice.Her eyes wide in anger and her fists clenched tightly as she stared at both of us.“Why would hit a sick man Andy?” Matthew raises his voice and she scoffs.“Why would you try to wipe a pregnant woman off the face of the earth?” She bites back.“I am sick and tired of all of your an
Just one night Filler
ANDY’S POVThe ride home took longer today because I got to the terminals really late and I had to wait for the next buses.It had to be the most stressful ride home, but it was all worth it immediately I saw my house in the distance.I tiredly walk to the house and knock the door. I had no strength to fish out my key and I just wanted my bed at this point.“Andy!” Auntie Claudia launches herself onto me as she pulls me into a hug.“Hey Auntie Claudia, I am happy to see you too, but I am so sleepy, but we can catch up on everything tomorrow, I promise we would” I tell her and she smiles.“Oh and I thought you were going to spend some time with us” She states and I frown.“Us? Who else is--?” My words get stuck in my throat as I spot Angela in the living room.“What are you doing here?” I seethe and she sighs.“Auntie Claudia-““Get out” I grit at her not wanting to hear anything from her.“Are you two fighting?” Auntie Claudia frowns and I roll my eyes not wanting to deal with this r

It was getting more and more tiring as the days went by because my work hard because I was the only employee in the café.Hilda said she has not had clients like this on a long time and saw it as some sort of good luck charm…and always refered to the baby as some sort of good luck magnet.My baby bump wasn’t out yet, I was finishing my third month in a week and I knew I should be getting ready for the baby bump.That is if I researched the right thing. If not… whatever happens happens, Drake brought this upon us, and I know he going through the consequences on his own.“Waiter!” Another customer calls and I almost groaned out in frustration but I held myself.I take their other and go back behind the counter to get it ready when the chimney dings again and another customer enters.“Welcome sir, please have your seat I’ll be with you shortly” I greet, not looking up from my sticky note as I try to
Just one night More lies
DRAKE’S POVI watch the doctor as he takes my samples again, and placing them in the small tray.I let out a deep and tired sigh and I stare at the doctor with a bored look on my face.“So doctor, how long would it take for the test results to be out?” Stephanie asks and I zone out of their conversation already knowing the answer.If this turns out to be the same after this….if there is no change in the results after this, I would have to rankle Andy to come to me. That would be the only way to get answers out of her.For some reason she would always answer my questions. Like she knows I would ask them. She always had a response to everything.But it all made sense when Stephanie explained that she bragged about it so much in high school.She just needed to find a rich man to pin it on and unfortunately for me, I became the victim. I had to be the one to bear the ruins.At first, I thought this was some sort of joke and a prank, until days and weeks passed and I couldn’t move a lot of
