Zach’s POV
I lay with Alice’s head on my chest, and my hands roaming her bare back. We made love once again. I love making love to her because she is the only girl I will ever do it to. I look around my bedroom and I grab my phone and check the time. Three in the morning. I look down at Alice and see she’s asleep. I smiled and kiss her head. I got up slowly and pulled my boxers on. I looked at Alice and she curled up in a ball. I walked out of the room and outside to smoke. I promised Alice I would stop but it’s hard. She knows it hard for me to but she doesn’t keep me on that promise. She thinks it’s stress and she’s right. It is, but it’s also because people are so fucking stupid.
“Yo man, you got your girl inside?” I heard Scott say jumping on my back.
“Yes and get off.” I laughed and Jake joined beside us. He patted me on the back rather harshly and I groan and glared at him.
“Stop being jealous you deeb.” I heard Alice’s voice from behind me. I turned around and found her in my shirt. I watched as she went down the steps and made her way over to me. I put my arm out for her and hugged her to my side.
“So Zach ready for tomorrow?” Scott asked and I shook my head no.
“Hell no. I’m so fucking scared. I don’t know what to do.” I responded and kissed Alice’s head.
“Well how about you fuck the shit out of you girl” Jake said and smacked Alice’s ass. She jumped and put her back against my stomach. I flicked my cigarette into the grass and held onto my baby.
“Is you so much touch her or look at her i’ll make sure you won’t be able to fuck anyone. Oh and I don’t fuck Alice, I make love to her.” I said with pure confidence. I watched as Ty came up behind Jake and kicked him in the ass. Jake walked a bit and fell to the ground in pain. I laughed and so did Ty and Scott. I stopped when Alice was out of my arms and into the house. I looked at the guys and they stopped and watched her. I followed her and found her on my bed. I went over and sat down. She looked up at me and sighed.
“Did that really have to happen?” She said and I shrugged.
“He smacked your ass. I wasn’t going to do anything” I lied. I sighed and watched her. As much as I hate lying to her, I hate that she’s going to be here alone with him.
“Sure you weren’t” She whispered. I sighed ran my hand through her hair.
“Baby, I know you knew I was going to but I didn’t. I didn’t want to scare you” I said and she looked up at me and laughed.
“You? Scaring me? I don’t think you could even if you tried.” She said and sat up. I watched as she laid down with her back to me. I laid down next to her and pulled her to me. I put my face in neck and kissed her shoulder.
“Alice, are you scared of me?” I asked and she sighed.
“Sometimes. I mean you get so angry I think you’re just going to snap and take it out on me because i’m the closest one there.” She said and I heard her voice break. I propped myself up on my elbow and watched as she turned to face me. “I know that you will never physically hurt me but you hurt me when you keep your feelings in. I mean you told me about your mother and you and well... I hoped that you would have told me sooner. I mean I could have avoided telling you that I ran into her. I know you hate it when I talk about her and your past but Daddy, I want to know. I want you to know i’m here whenever you need me. No matter where, the time or the situation. If we are fighting then just tell me something, if it’s in the middle of the night you know I will come, and you know I will try my hardest to come and see you.” She finished and I felt tears roll down my cheeks. I put my face in her stomach and cried. I knew she was right. I knew everything that came out of that beautiful mouth of her was right. I fisted the shirt she was wearing and I felt her hands run through my hair. I looked up at her and she looked at me with guilt and hurt. I went up and kissed her forehead.
“You will never, ever, have to be scared of me. I will never lash on you and I will tell you what i’m feeling. I promise you.” I said against her forehead and she turned so her chest was pressed against mine. I wrapped my arms around her protectively and held her. I heard her hum as I stroked her hair. I kissed her head and ran my hands down her back.
“Daddy I’m sleepy but I don’t wanna sleep” She said and I held her tight.
“Go to sleep. I’ll be here in the morning.” I said and I heard her whimper.
“You won’t be here forever.” She whispered and I kissed her head again.
“We’ll make this work.” I whispered in her hair and held her to me. As much as I don’t want to move I don’t want to make a mistake. I don’t want her to cry because i’m gone. I don’t want anything to happen to my baby girl.
*Three weeks later*
“Raechel!” I yelled up the stairs. I stumbled into the kitchen and grabbed my tenth beer for the day. It’s only two in the afternoon and i’m as drunk as a skunk. After I left Alice i’ve been drinking and smoking a lot more than I used to. I miss her so much that it hurt to be away from her so two weeks today I broke up with her because I couldn’t handle it. Call me stupid I don’t care because I know I am. I just wanted to make it easier on both of us but when I did it over the phone all I heard was a big crash and her crying. I couldn’t take it so I hung up like the jerk I am. I haven’t gotten a single text or call from her. I could understand but I want to hear her voice again.
“Hey Zach you got a minute?” A voice said from behind me. I turned around and saw Ryan with his hand shoved into his pockets.
“Sure. Go ahead” I said and took a drink of my beer.
“I think it’s time to call Alice. You’re getting worse by the day and drinking your problems away isn’t going to help anything.” He said and I laughed.
“Alice won’t make me stop, she’s the one who did this to me.” I lied. Alice never did. It’s just my grief.
“I did this to you?” A voice said. I watched as Alice walked into the room and I stood there shocked. I dropped my beer and let it shatter all over the floor.
“Hello Zach” She said with tears swelling up in her eyes. I scanned over her and saw her features. A bandage on her wrist and a few scraps on her arm.
“Why are you here?” I stumbled back.
“Ryan called me and I have some news to tell you.” She said and put her hand on her stomach.
“Which is what?” I look from her hand to her eyes.
“I’m pregnant with your baby.” She said and I stood there. Frozen unable to move. I broke the heart of the one I love and she’s pregnant my baby. I’m happy. More than I have been. Right now I want to kiss her but I know she will push me away after what I have done. Unless she knows.
