Riley
Since Jonah told me the news I've been stuck in the same spot just letting time pass by
I didn't know how to process this information let alone pretend I'm okay to grab some food but dad needed me so I stayed put in the somewhat comfortable chair
Out the glass door I noticed some movement out the corner of my eye so I looked up to see Jonah walking carrying something in his hands and considering we were in the end room it was likely he was heading towards us
Jonah opened the door with a sympathetic look
"I noticed you haven't left this room in a while so I got you done dinner and a bunch of drinks and snacks" Jonah said placing the tray down on a table and placing a carrier bag on the ground
"Oh Jonah you didn't have to do that" I softly say
"But I wanted too, you need to eat Ri" Jonah says
"Thank you so much Jonah you're honestly so sweet" I say lifting up the plate cover to reveal some pasta
"Oh it's my favourite too" I gush
"I remember you saying it was" Jonah replies
"Have you heard anything from James?" Jonah questions causing me to shake my head
"No I've heard nothing, he won't even answer my texts" I sigh
"If it is his then he seriously needs to grow up and tell you himself, the fact he's left you whilst your dad is in hospital and while you're carrying his children isn't acceptable at all, it's just disrespectful" Jonah says
"No you're right it is disrespectful but that's James for you" I reply
"You should be treated a lot better then what you're" Jonah softly says
"Yeah until you show me a guy that will I'll stick with James" I laugh
"Well you've already met him" Jonah timidly says
"Who?" I ask with furrowed eyebrows causing Jonah to sit and smile at me
"You mean you?" I ask
"Yeah.. I mean me" Jonah confesses
"Wait you like me?" I ask
"Yeah I do and seeing the way James treats you really upsets me.. he shouldn't be running off in a huff every time something doesn't go his way at first I thought James was this loving boyfriend but now I'm not so sure" Jonah explains
"No I know what you mean, when we're good we're really good but when this happens it could go in for days and I've just gotta wait it out all the time" I explain
"If you and James don't work out or you want to explore getting to know me, I'm more then open to that" Jonah softly says
I mean what harm could be done by getting to know someone? If Jonah really is exactly what I'm looking for why should I stay with James? Why should I get treated like shit for
Especially when I'm carrying his children..
I sit and think about what Jonah has said over and over in my mind and the more I think of it and the more i realise what's going on with James and Beth why shouldn't I get to know Jonah
Beth could be pregnant by James and I'm sat here waiting around like some lost puppy for him to come crawling back to me
