Breaking Point

26. Kitten

I walked slowly into the dress store with my mom and Kayla at my side. I tried to pay attention as they searched through dresses, but my talk with Michael kept nagging me. I still can't believe that I told him... I guess he reacted ok. He had just stared at me in shock for about three minutes without saying a word. Then he started to ask stupid questions about having a baby. But I'm pretty happy cause he said that he would change for the baby. I haven't realized that I was dozing out until Kayla snapped her fingers in front of my face. I snapped out of it and turned to her, to see that her and my moms arms were draped with dresses. They stuck their hands out and I grabbed them.
"Go try them on!" My mom said excitedly, scurrying me to the fitting room. I sighed and closed he door behind me. The first dress I tried on was very poofy and frilly at the ends with a laced top. I looked like an idiot.
"Nope!" I yelled to Kayla through the door.
"Ok!" She yelled back. I ended up going through all of the dresses with no luck. After the last one, I decided to go and look by myself. They agreed as we took our separate ways. I was glancing around when an older lady stopped me.
"This would look beautiful on you." She held up a dress in front of her. It was beautiful. It was everything I was looking for. It has a sweetheart neckline, with lace flowers fading down to the bottom. And the back.... It had flower designs along with swans, with buttons trailing down.
"Oh my god... Thank you. This is..... Perfect." It took my breath away.
"Here, have it." I nodded and took it from her hands.
"Thank you so much." She nodded and I took off excitedly to the fitting room. The second I saw myself in the mirror, I knew this is my dress. It was practically built for me. It complemented me in all of the right places without making me feel like a slut. I walked out and their jaws dropped to the floor. I felt my eyes watering as I knew it was the one.
"This is the one isn't it?" Kayla asked. I nodded and put my hands to my face, as I cried. They both engulfed me in a group hug. After a while, they let me go and we payed. As we walked out of the store, I felt like I was on top of the world. I was looking out of the window as we drove back to my moms house. Suddenly my phone started ringing, causing me to jump. Kayla laughed at my expression, but I sent her a hard look before answering.
"Hello?" There was a few yells on the other end.
"Hey, babe." Calum answered. The screaming became louder.
"What's happening over there?" I asked concerned.
"Just Michael screaming at a video game and Lashton arguing over ice cream flavors" he said casually. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Wait... Michael?"
"Yeah... After you guys talked, he came over here and apologized like a million times. Whatever you said changed him... Good job." I grinned and nodded even though he can't see me.
"Why thank you." There was a brief silence and I listened to the shouts of "COOKIES AND CREAM IS SO BETTER DUDE VANILLA IS BORING" and "NOOOOOOOOO YES DIEEEEE".
"I miss you. Come home so we can cuddle and listen to these idiots." The second he said that there were screams of protest.
"I AM NOT AN IDIOT" All of he boys screamed, causing me to laugh again.
"Ok. I'll be there soon, love you."
"I love you too, I'll see you." I smiled and hung up first.
"Wait. Did I hear Michael?" Kayla asked, raising her eyebrows.
"Yeah.. He apologized. Malum is back from the dead!"
"Finally!!! I love Malum." She smiled and clapped her hands together.
"But not more than Cwen." She stated seriously, looking to me. I smiled and shook me head. I didn't even realize that we were already at my moms house. I quickly grabbed the dress and shuffled inside. As I passed the kitchen, memories of me and Cal came back. I smiled at the thought and made my way up to my room. It was so empty, it felt depressing. I quickly put the dress in my closet and took one last look at it before going back to where my mom and Kayla were talking.
"Ok, I'm ready." I announced, walking into the living room. Kayla nodded and stood up, giving my mom a hug goodbye. I wake over and hugged her too.
"I love you, sweetie." She said, kissing my cheek.
"Love you too mom. Bye!" I said, making my way to the door. But before I went out of the door I heard a small meow behind me. I gasped and turned around to see Tinkerbell.
"Oh my god! Tinkers!!" I yelled, scooping her up.
"I was waiting for you to realize that you forgot your own cat." My mom said, laughing at our mini reunion.
"Well I'm not forgetting her this time. Where's the traveling cage?" I asked, walking to the closet.
"Here." She said, handing it to me. I smiled to her and put Tinkerbell into it despite her efforts to run away.
"Thanks mom. I should go now, bye!" I said again, making my way to the door. When I got out, Kayla was already in the car, waiting. I smiled to her, pointing to Tinkerbell as I got in the car.
"Hey kitty cat! Long time no see!" She said, petting her through the cage.
"Legoooooo" I said, pointing straight ahead. Kayla started the car as Fall Out Boys "Uma Thurman" turned on. We started to sing along rather horribly. By the middle of the ride, Tinkerbell was meowing really loud, and scratching at the cage. I felt really bad... I sighed and opened the cage, allowing her to curl up in my lap. We arrived at the house minutes later. I picked Tinkerbell up and carried her in with us. She looked super confused as we went into the elevator. I just let her head and she calmed down. I knocked on the front door as we arrived. It opened instantly, revealing Calum. His eyes lit up as he saw Timkerbell in my arms. He smiled and I walked in. I gave Calum a side hug and kiss before walking to the couch.
"HOLY. SHIT. YOU HAVE A KITTEN" Michael yelled, dropping his remote and running over to pet Tinkerbell. He sat down next to me and at the same time, Tinkerbell jumped into his lap. I got up and my spot was immediately taken by Luke, as he pet Tinkerbell too. I was turning to the kitchen before I was pulled back by my waist.
"Babyyyyyyyy" Calum whined, pulling me into his lap.
"Yeah?" I asked, turning my neck.
"Cuddles?" He asked, smiling. As if on qui, my stomach grumbled.
"My stomach has spoken. I'm starving. I'll be back I promise." I said, causing Calum to make a pouty face and puppy eyes. I rolled my eyes and pushed myself off of him. I walked to the kitchen and glanced around. Ooooooo... Pickles. I smiled and went through the cabinet until I found it. Minutes later, Michael walked in on me racing through the fridge with a pickle in my mouth.
"So what's it like?" I looked to him, confused.
"Cravings. My mom said she craved Cheerios when she was pregnant with me." He said, shrugging casually.
"Annoying. But be quiet. No one knows so just shut up about it. I'm not even positive.. I'm taking a pregnancy test on my honey moon." I half spoke and whispered the ending to him. He nodded and walked out. I sighed and followed him out with the pickle still in between my teeth. The second I walked in, Calum grabbed me again. I smile and laid back on his chest.
"Hey, we're still going to the 4th of July party tonight right?" Ashton asked, looking at us. Everyone nodded and I agreed.
"Good." He said, before sitting next to Michael. Even though the 4th of July is next week, a jock from the school is having a 4th of July party. We were in the middle of Mean Gurls when I got up to get ANOTHER jar of pickles. When j walked in with another jar, they all looked at me like I was crazy.
"Dang girl. I would've thought your pregnant the way you're eating those pickles." Kayla said, pointing to the jar. I shrugged and took my previous spot next to Calum. I felt the urge to say; well I am pregnant.. But I held it back.
"CUDDLES" Michael demanded, and before we knew it he pulled Kayla and Luke on top of Calum. He then cuddled to my side, wrapping his arm around my stomach and cuing up with his head under my arm. I sighed and smiled.
"You're an idiot."

We walked in to be invited with blaring music that irritated me. I clung onto Calum's arm as we walked to the couch. When we got there, we immediately walked away as we saw multiple couples making out. So after awhile of me awkwardly jumping up and down, trying to dance, we stopped.
"Drinks anyone?" Everyone cheered and nodded.
"Vodka. Or something strong." Kayla said. Everyone nodded and agreed.
"Same." I said to him, but my eyes said water. He got it and nodded before leaving us. After a random conversation of how starfish move, Michael came back with all of our drinks. He handed one to everyone and smiled when he gave me mine. I sniffed it and smelt nothing. I sighed and took a sip. It was water. I smiled to Michael and he just nodded.
"Let's danceeeee" Ashton said, pulling us to the dance floor. I sighed and followed. This is going to be a long night.

After hours of sneaking around and getting water, everyone was extremely drunk. It was kind of annoying me but at the same time, I never told them about the baby.. I sighed and looked around. I realized that Calum wasn't next to me anymore and that he was being surrounded by a group of girls. They all were dressed in slutty, tight, dresses. But they were pretty.. I sighed and looked away. Why does Calum even want me? I mean... He could have any girl... But he chose me.. I was taken away from my thoughts when I was practically dragged to the bathroom. I suddenly was pushed against the wall. I liked up to see a very drunk Calum. He kissed me hard, and mad his way to my neck.
"Calum." I said, as he continued, paying no attention to me.
"Calum!" I yelled, pushing him off of me.
"What?" I sighed and looked up to him.
"You're drunk. And I think it's time for us to head home. Ok?" He groaned and nodded. When we came out, there was a karaoke machine and speakers everywhere.
"Ok, who's first?" Jace Morgan, the host asked. I raised my hand and ran up there quickly. I took the mic and rose my voice.
"Michael Clifford, Kayla Fox, Luke Hemmings, and Ashton Irwin, please report to Calum Hood or Gwen O'Connel now please." I fake bowed and scrambled off of the mini stage. Minutes later, all of them came towards us. I couldn't help but notice both of Kayla and Michaels red cheeks and tousled hair. I smirked at both of them and they blushed.
"Let's go." Everyone nodded as we made our way back to Ashton's truck. I took his keys and got in. Calum in the passenger seat with the rest in the back.
"Heyyy how come you're not drunk Gwen" Kayla asked, as her words slurred.
"Cause I-" I was suddenly cut off by Michael.
"CAUSE SHES PREGNANT" Michael yelled suddenly. At that moment, I wanted to slap him across the face. But then everyone burst into laughter. I glared at him as I started the car. Little did I know, I was starting a VERY long ride.
