************************
A/N: This is Charles's version of the previous chapter, I know that it's boring to read the same thing twice but I just felt like it had to be told.
******************************
Charles's POV
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm.."
"I told you, it's over between us!"
I have already told her so many times, why doesn't she want to understand that. I can't keep doing this anymore.
"Charles, I'm pregnant with your child." She yelled.
I stood there for a second not knowing what to say or do, I was arguing in my head. I was trying to convince myself this wasn't true.
"What!" I exclaimed.
I was in a complete shock, how is this even possible.
I probably heard wrong.
"I said I'm pregnant Charles, and you are the father of my baby."
Once again I stood there completely silent, I didn't know how to feel. Should I be angry with myself, happy or what? I never thought this would ever happen, at least not with her.
Dion and I heard a loud 'Bang'. It was coming from the corner. We both turned around to see a completely shocked Elizabeth. She must have knocked into the glass vase that was now laying on the floor in pieces.
Her hands were in a fist and her eyes where tearing.
She heard all we said.
Once again I stood there not knowing what to do.
We just kept on staring at each other in awkward silence.
I didn't want to say anything because there was nothing I could do or say right now that would make her feel better, I also didn't want to make things worse.
What was I going to do now?
"Elizabeth, I can explain," I finally spoke. My voice sounded off, it was because I was lying. I couldn't explain. What was I going to tell her?
She stood there perfectly still. She looked at me than at Dion who was not making this any easier on me
"It's not what it seems like," I spoke again.
"Of cause it's what it seems like, you got me pregnant," Dion interrupted.
That was all it took to make things even worse.
The tears that were filled in her eyes were now running down her face. I could see she was trying to hold it all back but she couldn't.
Every second that I looked and her, my heart broke a little more.
I had hurt the one person I love the most and the only person who could ever love me.
How did I get myself in all of this and how was I going to fix this now.
She ran to her room with tears running down her face.
I followed after her as soon as she started running.
Before I could say or do anything, she slammed the door then locked it.
I kept on knocking but she wouldn't open the door, much less say anything.
I had to give her some space. That was the lest I could do for her right now.
I went downstairs to find no trace of Dion.
'Good' I thought to myself, I couldn't possibly handle any more drama.
I know I was the last person she wanted to see but I just couldn't leave her alone.
I sat on her doorstep waiting patiently, I was willing to wait. For as long as it took.
=======
I had fallen asleep. I looked at my wristwatch with sleepy eyes. Luckily the lights in the hallway were on so I could see just fine. It was 01:00.
I couldn't hear a sound through the door anymore.
I was starting to get worried. She had fallen asleep (possibly) without eating anything.
I kept on having this feeling in my chest that something was wrong. I needed to see her.
I went downstairs, to my office. I had an office here but I didn't use it often. I took a pair of keys that were in my drawer in the center of the room. Every room in this house had a spare key which I kept here. Each key was labelled making it easier for me to know which one.
The only reason I hadn't gone into her room earlier was that I needed to give her some space. I felt like I couldn't breathe for a moment longer without knowing how she was.
I unlocked the door slowly making sure not to make a sound then slowly entering the room making sure my shoes don't make a sound.
A scan through the room to find no trace of her. I was losing my mind. I walked into the bathroom in a rush hoping I would find her in there. Again, she was nowhere to be found. Instead, the window was open. She must have left through the window. I have to agree, it was smart of her.
I couldn't possibly think of any place she would be at this time.
I had to call an expert.
I was surely going to regret this.
I took my phone from my pocket and dialled Mary's number.
She finally picked up her phone after I called her for the third time.
"What did you do wrong." Were the first words she said immediately after picking up.
She is the best friend so she must have already heard the news.
"Why do you think I did something wrong?" I said nervously
"If you calling me at this time that means you did something wrong. You must be desperate. Now, what do you want?"
"Well, let's just say I did something wrong now I can't find her. Do you have any idea where she could be?" I said while scratching my head.
"Yes, but what exactly did you do wrong."
"Let's just say that the details are not important right now."
"So she left you?"
"Yes,"
"I couldn't be any happier. You deserve it." She said. I could hear the laughter in her voice. She was trying to hide it but she wasn't doing a good job at it.
"Are you going to help me or not?" I questioned. I wasn't in the mood for a pep talk right now, that was my mother's job.
"Okay, okay Mrs Greene. Try looking for at her grandmother's apartment, I'll send you the address. Don't tell her I told you."
"Thanks," I said before hanging up the phone.
Wait, did she just call me Mrs?
A grab my jacket and my car keys.
I drove to the address Mary had sent me.
'What if she wasn't there?' I thought to myself. I had to get that thought out of my mind. I had to be positive, at least for her. If she was there what was I going to tell her?
I walked up the stairs going to her apartment. It took about five minutes before I finally got by her door.
For a moment I hesitated, I knew she didn't want to see me but it was worth trying.
I knocked on the door gently. It wasn't long until she opened the door.
She looked the same as she was earlier, she had bags under her eyes and her eyes were red.
She glared at me for a moment as if deciding what to do.
She looked like she was expecting someone else. I could see the shock in her eyes.
"I never want to see you again," She yelled, I had never seen her so angry before.
I had never seen her with so much anger and pain in her eyes.
"Please, I can explain," I said.
"I don't wanna hear anything coming from you ever again. It will only cause us so much pain."
As hard as it was for me to accept this, she was right.
Once again, She shut the door in my face. Something told me this was the last I was going to see of her.
How did I get myself in this mess?
