Scars On Her Soul

Chapter 44: I'm pregnant...

Vienna's POV

At some point during the afternoon, I opened my eyes slightly, only to see him already gazing down at me with love while caressing my hair gently, I smiled at him warmly before snuggling more into him and closing my eyes and falling asleep once again.

Turning to my side, I felt cold and tried snuggling into Ryan, only to be met with cold sheets. Snapping my eyes open, I realized that I was alone.

I sat up, wondering where he was. Checking my phone, I saw a message from him.

I'll be home soon, love.

Throwing my phone aside, I leaned back against the headrest and huffed out a heavy sigh.

What the fuck have I done!? I thought to myself while running a hand through my hair as whatever happened between us a few hours ago flashed through my head. I couldn't help but blush.

"Vienna! You're supposed to be mad at him" I mumbled to myself, slapping my forehead.

What if he thinks that I have forgiven him? Because of course I haven't and I never will.

Deciding to freshen up, I got off the bed and my eyes fell on the empty side table, where I had placed the bouquet of roses earlier.

Where's the...

I stopped in the middle of my thoughts as I realised what might have happened with the innocent bouquet of roses.

It's obvious that Ryan threw them away, I couldn't help but smile and shake my head at the thought.

Obviously I was just teasing Ryan when I said that I'm gonna accept Aldo Lombardi's invitation and go on a date with him.

But on second thoughts...

This might not be such a bad idea after all, an evil smirk curved up my lips at the idea.

I know you too well, Ryan and the nerve that I'm about to hit is gonna make you realize what revenge actually is.

All I want to do is teach Ryan a good lesson that he'll never, ever forget, but will I be safe around Aldo Lombardi? Because considering what Ryan said about him earlier, it's obvious that his intention are not good towards me.

Let me help you move on...

I felt goosebumps all over my skin as I recalled his words.

I don't know why, but I'm getting a bad feeling about this...maybe I should just drop this idea.

But at the same time I just want Ryan to believe that I actually went on a date with him. Maybe I can go out somewhere tonight and tell Ryan that I went out with Aldo, but at the same time I know that he'll find out the truth eventually as he'll obviously ask Michael that where I was.

Yeah, Michael knows that Ryan's alive, he found out a few days ago.

Maybe I can actually go out with Aldo, I'll take Michael with me and leave as soon as possible.

I'll obviously be safe with Michael, thinking so I decided to go and get ready before I chicken out and also before Ryan arrives.

I stared at myself in the mirror. I was wearing the red, knee length dress, with sweetheart neckline and thin straps, that Ryan had gifted me once.

My heart raced unusually as I wondered what Ryan's reaction would be like.

I sighed as my chest heavied up and down because honestly I was scared and I didn't have a good feeling about all of this.

What am I even doing? Do I really even want to hurt Ryan in such way? Or in any way for that matter?

Closing my eyes, I placed a hand over my rapidly beating heart and took deep breaths, trying to calm myself and after a few more minutes of contemplating over my plan, I decided to just stop over thinking and go ahead with my plan.
