He Wasn't A Jerk Online (He Wasn't A Jerk #1)

Chapter Twenty-Two

"Chet! Welcome, welcome - come on in! My daughter Victoria is in the kitchen right now." I heard my mum say before I could hear her high heels click against our freshly polished wooden floors. She smiled at me once she entered the kitchen with Chet and his two kids trailing closely behind.

"Victoria," Chet said and outstretched his hand for me to shake it.

I smiled, "Hi Chet."

Chet turned to the two kids beside him. The girl, who looked no older than five smiled shyly at me before she hid behind her auburn colored hair. The boy, who looked to be a year or two younger than me smiled, smoothing down his curly black hair. They looked like two different kids and not brother and sister. Also, and not to mention that they didn't look a thing like their dad. Hm, maybe they looked like their mum?

"Victoria, Brianne - this is my daughter Kayley," Chet gestured to his daughter who was timidly looking down at the kitchen floor, "And this is my son Jon."

I smiled at the both of them before excusing myself and checking on the dinner that my mum had cooking. I lifted the lid of a silver pot that was on the burner of the stove to see there were noodles boiling. Looks like we're having spagehtti tonight.

"Jon is the captain of his high schools basketball team."

"Victoria is working her way to a professional dancer - she's just a few levels away from it."

"Jon has all A's."

"Victoria has all A's, ever since primary school."

I let my fork fall from my hand and onto my plate so it made a clinking sound which made Chet and my mum stop their bickering over both of their own children. Dinner has mostly consisted of Chet and my mum trying to compare Jon and I - and let's just say I wasn't exactly the prize winner here.

Mum sighed in annoyance and dabbed the corner of her mouth free of spagehtti sauce with a napkin before standing up and grabbing both of our plates before walking them to the kitchen. The silence was an uncomfortable silence to say the least. Chet was staring down at his food, Jon was eyeing me up and Kayley looked like she didn't have a clue to what was going on.

"Excuse me," I announced before standing up and walking into the kitchen to find my mum leaning over the sink, her hand cupping her mouth. I walked over to her slowly and put a hand onto her back as she threw up one more time. She grabbed a cup and filled it with water, gargled and them spit it out into the sink.

"You okay?" I asked her and she nodded, not looking me in the eyes.

"Victoria -- I have something I need to tell you."

I nodded, "You can tell me anything."

To Be Continued .....

HA. JUST KIDDING - Read on .. :) [I'm not THAT mean guys.]

She took a big breath before letting it out in one blow and turned to face me. A faint smile was visiable on her lips. I smiled back slowly before raising in eyebrow. Get on with it mum!

"Victoria -- I'm pregnant."

I laughed as if someone had just told the funniest joke in the world, "Okay mum now that you proved yourself worthy of making a decent joke .. what did you really want to tell me?"

My mums smiled fell of her face and she sighed, "Victoria -- I'm being serious. And also, Chet's the father."

My jaw dropped, didn't they JUST start dating?

Mum smiled dreamily, "That's why he brought his kids over today. They need to know about this too. We were planning on announcing it tonight."

To say this evening was uneventful was a lie.

My mum and Chet told us about her newfound pregnancy. Jon started to have a tantrum telling his dad that my mum was not my mum - which kind of was a low blow - and Kayley started to cry, saying that she wanted to go home. Chet left soon after that, apologising once again for the reactions to my now sobbing mother.

I called up Louis a few minutes ago, telling him all about my mums pregnancy and how she was sobbing uncontrollably now. He said he would be over with his mum in a few minutes since his sisters were being watched by their dad right now.

"Louis," I greeted him with a hug and he pecked my cheek before I showed Louis and his mum to my mum who was curled up on the couch, her high heels kicked off and were lying on the floor next to the couch.

"Brianne! You poor thing," Louis' mum started to console my mum, even though they've only talked to each other twice before - it seemed as if they were the best of friends. I sighed and motioned for Louis to follow me into the kitchen, which he did.

"I don't like Chet," I blurted out to Louis once we were alone in the kitchen.

He smiled sadly at me and wrapped his arms around my waist, "I get it Victoria."

I stared down at my feet and shook my head, "No you don't. Your parents aren't divorced - you have an amazing family!"

"No I don't Tori. My mum and dad talk about getting a divorce all the time - and my sister drive me up the wall. Your the one with the perfect family, Tori. I don't even have an amazing life, you do."

"No, we both have an amazing life Louis." I told him and looked up at him, a smile playing on my lips.

He raised his eyebrow, "Oh yeah? Why is that?"

I shrugged, "Because you have me."

He threw his head back and laughed before looking me in the eyes, "Your right I do have you." He said before he captured my lips in a gentle, but love filled kiss. Once he pulled back I could see the sparkle in his eyes. I loved Louis, and I knew nothing could ever change that.

Well, something could change that - but I was hoping nothing ever did.
