Baby

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟓

I see a girl walking out who I assumed was Emma, she doesn't really see me and walks right past. That's when Nick walks outside making eye contact with me

N: Y/n hey

He lightly smiles looking into my eyes. I just stare not knowing what to say.

Y/n: Hey Nick

I answer softly, my voice nearly cracking

N: Is everything ok??

He asks getting concerned, I lightly nod

Y/n: Mhm, I should go-

I turn around as he immediately grabs my wrist. My clench my jaw and tighten my fist trying to resit his touch.

N: Wait, I-I think I now why your upset

He says lowly I turn around and look at him, without saying anything. Our eyes already having the conversation before any words leave our mouth.

N: Could we talk in my room please

I nod in reply to his plea, as we walk into this room and sit on the bed; next to each other. Our shoulders touching one another as I could feel him glancing at me, I fidget with my fingers looking down in my lap.

N: Look I know you heard everything that Emma said

He speaks as I stay silent letting him know I knew

N: If your wondering this is all new to me to, I honestly didn't know-

Y/n: Nick I don't need an explanation, you don't have to tell me. I understand

I answer instantly cutting him off and looking at him

N: You do??

He questions confused

Y/n: Yeah I do and I understand if you wanna be with her

I say with a heavy heart as he gives me a bewildering face. He immediately starts shaking his head and puts his hand on mine

N: Now who gave you that idea

He argues as I shrug looking at him

Y/n: I don't know I just figured you might wanna be with her because she came all the way here and told she wanted to keep the baby. You'll have to play an active part in the kids life you know that right??

I question a he looks at me with his thinking face, eyebrows squinting together

N: I didn't really think of it like that. I mean I broke up with her because we had a toxic relationship. We practically hated each other; I honestly don't even know why we dated. And now I'm supposed to start a family with her. She's having a kid. MY KID

He exclaims shocked, finally realizing how much of a big deal this was

N: I DON'T THINK I'LL BE GOOD, WHAT IF NOT I'M GOOD. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD DAD??

He says rambling

Y/n: Nick, Nick relax it'll be fine. I know you'll be good

I lightly smile trying to reassure him

N: I'm sorry

I responds getting closer to me and leaning his head on my shoulder intertwining our fingers together

Y/n: Don't apologize it isn't you fault

I lightly smiled again caressing the skin on his hand with my thumb. We sit in that position for around a 5 minutes silent in our thoughts.

I then got off the bed turning around towards the door when he grabs my wrist again, it takes all of me not to turn around and kiss him.

But I know one day he'll realize how important the baby and Emma are. Maybe she still has feelings, maybe she needs him. I can't intrude, plus with everything my brother said; I had to be smart. It's just sad that I was really started to fall hard for Nick.

N: Where are you going??

He asks as I was face the other way, I sigh and turn around to face him

Y/n: I'm going into my room

I answer looking at his sympathetic face

N: Wait-

He pulls me closer to him and I stand in between his legs. His arms wrapping around my waist and his face in my chest as I look down and he looks up in my eyes.

He smiles at me pecking my lips. I put my hands on his shoulder and pulled away from the kiss before things escalate.

Y/n: We'll talk later

I say moving his hair and kissing his forehead, I get out of his grip and walk out of his room.
