Once Upon A One NightStand

chapter 8

CHLOE HOUSTON "You bitch!!". I turned to see Lauren walking over to us with those friends of hers. I made Brie step backwards because I know her stepsister mind works. She might slap her all of a sudden if she wants. I cross my arms. "What do you want now, Lauren?". "Oh wow. Someone is being a protective angel here". "Hey, you better get yourself and also your trashy friends out of here so I'm gonna do it myself". I warned her. "Always sticking for Brianna, well this time, your so called best friend isn't all goody two shoes". "Lauren, I don't get why you are always bent on attacking me? What the heck? I left because of you". Brie spoke up. "Oh really? Was that why you decided to go rub yourself all over my boyfriend?". "What are you talking about?". I mentally facepalm myself. Oh, I knew that Lauren would find out sooner or later. "Stop trying to act all innocent because it won't help you at all, Brianna". "I don't know what you are talking about". "Look, Lauren". I butted in. "If you won't leave us then we will". I held Brie's hand and led her to where my car was. I unlocked the car doors and we stepped in shutting the doors close behind us. "Chloe, what was all that?". "Brie, just forget about it. She's a psycho". "First, she kissed Nick and then she tried to accuse me of stealing her boyfriend. Who does that?". I rested on my seat not saying anything as I was still contemplating what to say. "And i don't even know who her fucking boyfriend even is". She continued talking. "Brie, maybe you should just let this one go". "I am not letting it go. Chloe, i don't even know whats wrong with Lauren, we don't even answer the same last name anymore so she should leave me the fuck alone". "Hey. Wanna go watch movies?". I asked her, trying to change the subject. She paused. "Huh?". "It would help clear your mind". "You know something". "Brie ... ". "I know that you know something, Chloe so spill it out right now". "You did rub yourself all over her boyfriend, Brie". "What?". I exhaled. "Liam is her boyfriend, the same Liam Paige". "Wait, you mean the Liam that I had sex with?". "Yeah". "Fucking shit". She exclaimed. "I really did cross Lauren this time". "Hey. Don't feel bad, just think of it as like a payback for what she did to you". "When did you know about this, Chloe?". I sighed. "You came home, told me about him, wanting to keep you safe, I researched about him". "And what did you see?". She muttered. "He's in a relationship, Brie". She sniffed. "And to think I was becoming so attached to his warmth". "Well in your defense, you didn't know". I tried to comfort her. "It's Lauren, isn't it?". "Yeah. They are dating". She sniffed back tears. "I'm always the very unlucky one, the one without good things". "Brie, come on. Just because Lauren is in a relationship with Liam doesn't mean you should be miserable". "He only saw me as a one night stand, Liam didn't even tell me he had a girlfriend. I was not that important to him at all". "You like him?". She hastily wiped her cheeks. "Lets just go home already, I need to get some sleep". "Let's talk about this". "Just drive, Chloe". She said hoarsely and faced the window crying loudly this time. * * BRIANNA I rolled out of bed tiredly and stood up. I'm always feeling sleepy and tired but why? I hate the fact that this is happening to me. I glanced around looking for Chloe and went out of my room walking to the living room. "Chloe?". I called out for her. "In here". I got to the kitchen. "Hey. What are you making this morning?". "Breakfast". "I know but what are you making?". "Something. Now go wash up, i don't have the time to force or I'll be late for my new job". "With your Mr. Hottie, right?". I teased her playfully. She rolled her eyes. "Go on, Brie or you too will be late". I chuckled lightly and walked out going to my room. Chloe didn't try to retaliate, that's a first, she must be really into him. I went to my bed and flopped on it feeling tired then all of a sudden, I felt something ugly and had the strange urge to puke. I stood up and ran to the toilet immediately, throwing up quickly. I paused, staring at it before flushing it away. What the hell? Am I sick or what? Maybe it was too much of the ice cream I had with Liam yesterday. But could it be ... Nah. I washed my mouth and face feeling so weak looking at myself in the mirror. Why is this happening? I still managed to take my bath anyway and after freshening up, I wrapped my towel around my body before stepping outside the bathroom and going back into the room. "Brie. You're okay because you look kind of weak". I sat on the bed still cranky. "Yeah. I'm fine, just tired". "Oh". She looked at me weirdly. "I brought breakfast in bed for both of us". I smiled a little. "Thanks, Chloe". "Help yourself". She sat on her beanie bag as she placed the tray of food in front of me. I shrugged and dug in the food. My favorite, it was coffee heavily laced with milk, bread and eggs with corned beef. I ate a little out of the bread but it felt bitter in my mouth tasting differently. I wanted to take another bite then the strange urge ... I stood up and rushed to the toilet puking out the contents of the breakfast. I rested on the tiled wall feeling drained and weak. Chloe stepped in and I flushed immediately heading to the washbasin washing my face and mouth. "What happened?". I sighed. "I don't know, Chloe. I just had to puke". "Are you okay?". "I feel sleepy, tired, all of that and I don't know why". She crossed her arms. "Did you take those pills?". "Huh?". I faced her. "What are you talking about?". She frowned. "You didn't take those pills like I asked you to". "I did take them". I snapped at her. "Really? Brie, now tell me why you act this way? Huh, tell me". "I'm not pregnant". "You are and you wouldn't be if you had took those fucking pills like I told you to". I stuttered backwards. "Chloe, come on. I can't be pregnant". "You are right". She muttered. "I guess you should take this test". She walked out and I followed behind her, she searched through the drawers before handing me the test tube. "Chloe, why do you have that?". "Just use it". She forced it into my hands. I was stupefied. "I don't need it, it's some mistake, I can't be pregnant right now". "Use the HPT and we'll find out if you are or not". I sighed and stared at the test tube in my hands. Do I really have to do this? But no way. I shook my head. "Chloe, I can't". "Brie, come on. This is for your own good and you know that". I sighed and finally went back to the toilet to carry out the test. But I wish that it would come out negative because I can't be pregnant with my stepsister's boyfriend. I leaned on the wall and stared at the test tube in my hands. But I took the pills. If this test comes out positive, then I do what it's necessary. If truly I'm pregnant, then I'm aborting the pregnancy because there is no way that Liam will be the father of my child. He had clearly told me he didn't want children.
