Chapter 5 So you're keeping it?

Tegan

He pushes his fingers deeper, forcing a choked moan out of me that I have to swallow violently.

Then he slips his finger out of me and let's go of me. I stop the whimper that almost escaped my lips.

“Guess you've had enough for one night” he says with a sadistic smirk and walks out.

He just denied my orgasm,I groan and try to collect myself, arranging myself.

I see him walk away with the rest of the team and like magic the rest started leaving one by one.

I let out a sigh of relief,and dial my Papa back quickly when everywhere is quiet and I'm left with the people hired to clean the place.

“Tegan” I hear his hoarse voice.

“I was at a board meeting when you called” I lied, hoping he doesn't catch that anything is wrong.

“How's the preparation for the next charity gala?” He asks.

“It's going well” I say and walk out of the wretched place.

We talk some more about the arrangements and I got to speak to my mom and little brother. That helped ease some form of tension at least.

I didn't even bother going to my penthouse,I just headed to the Charlotte’s vacation home she was staying at.

“Girl… what the fuck?” She says immediately she sees me, gesturing to the way I look so flushed and my hair messy.

She was wrapped in a blanket like a cocoon, wearing a three piece silk nightie because she said she always have to look good at all times. Unlike my wavy black hair she had straight long blonde hair which looked great on her with her grey eyes,she also had a slim curvy body unlike my thick thighs and full breasts. Maybe I should lose some weight. Or it's just the pregnancy?

I turn my attention back to her after I throw myself on the soft sofa of the cinema room.

“I had a really rough day” I manage to say.

“Tell me everything” she says dramatically scooting over.

“I went to stop a party and got myself in a complicated shit with Hayes fucking Ashford”

She just stares at me amused as I narate it all.

“He's such a jerk….a talented jerk” she says and laughs.

“Shit….this is so fucked up” she finally says.

And I hum in agreement, I'm so confused, my body feels like a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time, my emotions are all over the place, I need food…. preferably French fries and turkey wings dipped in soy sauce along side undercooked egg and a slice of salmon, I also feel really nauseous. It's a constant reminder of the life growing in my belly.

“So you're keeping it?” She finally asks and it's the last straw because I let everything I've been holding back out and start sobbing like a wounded puppy.

“I don't…I don't know” I croak out.

“Don't worry it's fine, we'll figure it out” she assures me as she fulls me in her embrace.

“I'm planning on meeting Dr.Helena,to be discreet”

“I can come if you want” she says and I nod.

I wasn't supposed to be going through any of this alone. None of this would have happened if I was careful and not tried to have one night of fun. Everything would have been in place if I had just listened to my parents and been their golden girl. I wouldn't have to see Hayes stupid face and he wouldn't have the right to shove his thick fingers in me whenever he wants.

I scoff as I hurriedly change to a nice sundress and pack my hair in a tight bun with just light makeup. I nod to the girl in the mirror and head out, ready to face whatever I was walking into.

I smoothened the material of my dress for the tenth time and squeezed Charlie's hand, giving her a weak smile which she returned with a large grin.

We've been sitting here for ten minutes I think. Her office is nice though. The marble,the gold and white touch on almost everything,her nice table and all.

This is the life my parents want for me. To be know as a respected young Doctor,to carry the family name to greater heights. While I'm here,u don't even know what I'm doing here.

I stand up abruptly, and head to the door ignoring Charlie's nervous pleas and attempt to reach me. But the door opened just before I got to the knob.

“Tegan honey” Helena says with a smile that dies quickly when she notice the look on my face and my best friend beside me.

“Uhm…okay, let's seat down first” she says calmly still trying to access the situation.

We all take our seats and after an uncomfortable silence she speaks

“Please don't tell me you have STI”

I share a look with Charlie.

“I'm pregnant” I murmured not meeting her eyes.

She lets out a sigh of relief and I stare at her dumbstruck.

“What? I remember telling you to live your best life before you left for college,you wouldn't blame me for thinking you git some disease” she scoffs.

“Wait why do you sound so normal?” Charlie steal the words from my mouth.

“Because I am normal” she says sarcastically looking at me for help.

I shake my head and smile softly, she's my mom's best friend and literally my second mom if anything like that exists. I know she's trying to ease up the tension with her jokes.

“How long?” She asks with a serious face this time.

“About three weeks?”

“Yeah” Charlie says beside me.

“Okay are you keeping it?”

“Yes” I say before I overthink it and change my mind.

“But my parents–”

“Don't worry about that for now” she assures me.

“Okay is everything okay? Do you feel weird?”

“Just nauseous most of the time”

“That's normal just get Ginger tea or anything ginger related”

I see Charlie quickly writing it down and I smile. I'm so lucky to have her.

“In some weeks I'll call you in for a scan and we can talk about you antenatal sessions, they'll be private don't worry” she adds with a smile.

“Okay… I can work with that”

She sighs and brings some things in,she takes my blood saying she'll run some tests and what ever medical shit she was spewing.

Though I'm a medical student in sophomore year, I still find the course a hard one.

“Everything is going to be just fine honey, remember what I told you?”

“Don't let them hold you back” I repeat the mantra she always says to me.

“Yes,now you do just that and walk out this door like the queen that you are” She says as she scroll through the tablet,I think she's checking the results of the tests.

“Everything's fine” she says but I catch a flicker of something in her eyes.

Something's wrong

“But?” I press on persistently

“It's nothing to worry about”

“What the fuck is the problem with my freaking body” I whisper yell holding the tears at bay.

“Have you noticed slight spotting or cramping?”

“Maybe…” I stutter trying to think of how many times it happened.

“Well it could mean the pregnancy isn't stable”
