If there was a priest here right now and everyone was okay with it, I wouldn't have hesitated.But Xavier, was he okay with it? Like I mean... "It's not." That took me off guard, seeing that it was coming from Xavier, he would also get married to me if there was a priest here. I smiled. "See? It's not. Don't worry about this Lily, I've got this, you just relax." Xylia said with a huge smile on her face and the others agreed.To say I was happy was an understatement, I glanced at Xavier who was busy with his phone. Seriously?Soon we were done eating, I had wanted to help them at least do something but they wouldn't let me do a thing.Jessie has changed her attitude towards me since she heard about me being pregnant and I don't know how to feel about it.I saw Carrie running around with a little boy and a girl, they must be Xylia's kids. They were so cute. good looks do run in their genes. "Ahhh." They s
"Why? It's not like I haven't seen you naked before." He said. "Well... You don't remember anything from that... Night." I said trying to sound confident but failed miserably."I do. You think I have bad memories like you do?" He said and I scowled.The nerves."Well..." I said lost for words, so he does remember. What the hell is wrong with my brain. I had always forgotten about stuff."Well?" He said, the smirk never leaving his face. "Can you close your eyes?" I asked and he raised an eyebrow but did it anyway. I walked slowly to the bathroom, looking at him as if he was peeping, immediately I got into the bathroom I closed the door. I heard him chuckle.With a sigh, I quickly put on my clothes and came out. He was still on the bed."Uh... You can use the bathroom now, there's a new toothbrush in there, come out... When you want to." I said. I was just seriously lost for words. "Hmm." I heard him hum.I quickly rushed out of the room. Why do I feel like that?! You gotta get used
I placed my hands on my face, trying to hide the fact that I was crying and blushing. I sniffed a couple of times.I felt him bringing me closer to him. "What did you want to tell me?" He asked raising an eyebrow.Oh yeah. That.How should I say this? It was so overwhelming. I sighed. "I'm pregnant." His eyes widened for like three seconds before they beamed with happiness. Taking my hands in his. "That's great news, I feel like the luckiest man on earth." He said kissing my forehead. This was a dream come through... Dream? You dreamt of this?! My subconsciousness screamed at me.Well... Maybe only once. But just in case this is all still a dream, I don't want to ever wake up. "And I feel like the luckiest lady on earth," I said and he chuckled.I like it when he does that."You do?" He asked pecking my lips. "Hmm hmm." I hummed and wrapped my arms around his neck and licked his lower lip.I don't want this to ever end. It felt so good.We finally broke apart. I sat down back on my c
I got out and walked not waiting for his reply. I just had to clear things up.Getting into the store, I bought a pregnancy test kit. I have gotten pregnant before, but I just want to be sure if I was pregnant or not.What if I was? This was so overwhelming. By the time I had reached home, it was already 4:22 pm. "What took you so long? You had me scared." Layla said immediately I got into the house.Her face held so much relief. "I... Uh, ran into an old friend." I said. She looked at me suspiciously before nodding her head."Did you get it?" She asked. I know her and I know that there were so many things running through her head, that she wanted to ask me questions."Yes," I said going towards my room direction, she called. "Lily?" I turned towards her and hummed. "You know you can tell me anything, right?" She asked.Yes, that would make our relationship stronger. "Yes," I said with a smile before I walked to my room.I had bought three pregnancy test kits.~My eyes widened lookin
I was in an empty room alone with Layla. It was dead silent until she sniffed. I was on a rollercoaster of emotions. Why can't everything just be fine? Why can't I have a normal life? My Carrie... She must have been crying now, oh god.After Lester had spoken earlier, he got a phone call and went out, saying he would be back, it's been two hours since he had left.Does Xavier know I was missing? I hope he knows, I hope he would be able to find us before it's too late because Lester might as well kill us, he is a psycho.The door suddenly flung open revealing Lester, a huge grin plastered on his face. "Miss me? Cause I sure missed you both." He said with a smile, it made me sick.He walked up to us at a slow pace and sat down on the chair he had sat down before which was close to where we sat down and he grinned again.I wanted to know if Carrie was okay. Is she? "Where is my child." I asked and his lips formed an 'O' "Oh, the little girl? Don't worry she is fine." The way he said it
"We need to talk." He replied before I could answer. Yeah, we need to talk.If only I could just remember at least a thing from last night. I blushed thinking about what we had done. I've been blushing a lot lately. "Hey, it's ready, you can come and eat now." I snapped my head up to see Layla.Two months later:It's been two months since that incident occurred, and it has been two months since Xavier and I have been together.My life has been pretty normal and I've got used to the fact that Xavier and I are together.I lay on my bed, I was sleepy, I've been sleeping a lot lately."Mommy." I heard a voice call. "Hmm?" I hummed still not getting up. "Mommy wake up." I couldn't bring myself up, I was so tired. "Mommy." She called again. It was so unlike her to call me like this. If everything was okay, she would've just laid on me.I opened my eyes slowly seating up. My eyes widened when I saw a guy looking at me amusedly. Jesus. "Finally up, sleeping beauty?" He mused. "I've always
What does this mean? Was my question now, does it mean we are a little voice cut off my thought."Mommy!" I turned around to see Carrie running up to me, I looked behind her, it was a smiling Xylia. Was she for real? She was so beautiful, beside her was a little girl's hand, she was so cute."What a great sight indeed, seeing you two together warms my heart. And we had a great time with Carrie, right Cara?" She asked the little girl beside her and she nodded her head frantically and giggled."I'm so sorry, I forgot about the meeting up with you after the dinner," I said as soon as I remembered what she had said earlier."Lily, you don't have to be sorry, I should be the one saying sorry here... I came at the wrong time, I'd go now." She said as she took a hold of Daisy's and Cara's hands."Hey, you-" before I could finish she had already walked out. "You wanted her to be here? At this moment?" No, but I wanted to get to know her. She is nice and seems fun to hang out with. "No, but
What does this mean though? Are we dating already? Of course not silly. Then why had he brought me here?"I-is that why you brought me here?""Yes.""Are we dating?" I don't know where that came from, it slipped out of my mouth.He looked amused. "No.""Then... W-why do I have to see them?""They wanted to see the lady I love." He said bluntly. Oh, a blush crept to my face. I smiled shyly, tucking my hair beside my ear. But then I remembered his mother.No doubt she hated me. I bent down and carried Daisy in my arm. "Come." He held my hand, i blushed harder.We stopped at a table. I noticed how his mother's smile dropped when she saw me.My stomach churned. "Dad, meet Lily..." He looked at me before he continued. "My girlfriend."His girlfriend?!"Such a beautiful young lady! Nice to meet you, I'm Xander." He introduced.No doubt he was a kind man, unlike his wife. She looked at me weirdly before faking a smile. "Nice to meet you again, Lily." She said.Xander raised an eyebrow at Car
We drove for like 40 mins, we stopped at a huge mansion. I thought we were going to a restaurant or something. He came out and walked passed me. I scowled.Holding Carrie's hand I trailed behind him. There were men in suits, they stood at the entrance of the house but they separated when I was about to pass. Whoa.I quickly passed, entering a big building, some people were arranging the hall, maybe they were going to be a party, I guess."Yeah, this is her." I saw Xavier talking to a lady, she nodded at me and motioned for me to follow her. I raised an eyebrow confusingly before I followed her.We reached a room, i walked in with her. Did he bring us here so we could sleep here? Of course not, why would he do that? I sat Carrie on the bed. "I suggest you go take a bath now." She said.Why? "I'd be right back." She walked out. I slapped my face frustratingly. I moved to the door where the bathroom must be. And there was a bathtub, I'm pretty sure they had kept something inside that wat
I looked at the time, it was 5 pm already. 'Why isn't he home yet?" Jack closes from office and comes home immediately after. It's been an hour already. I frowned looking at the clock. Maybe he was very busy? Or had somewhere to be? I dialed his number. "The number you're calling cannot be reached.' It said.I sighed. I heard a car pull up. Ah! He's back. I arranged my hair waiting for my husband to come in. The first thing he normally does is attack me with kisses and with a warm smile planted on his face but it wasn't so this time.Jack walked in with anger plastered on his face. He glared at me. " What happened?" I asked him. "You whore!" He snarled."You thought I wouldn't find out, didn't you? You behave all innocent. You thought you could trick me, fucking other guys behind my back, you slut!" His words were venom."What are you talking about, Jack? What do you mean I sl-" he cuts me off?"Don't you dare act like you don't know what I am talking about?" He screamed."I do not kn
