《Brunette》Part 48
Advertisement
It's been two weeks.
I went to the doctors a few days after I figured out I was pregnant and Christina went with me just like she said she would.
I can't even leave the room if none of the girls are here.
Lauren yells at me and tries to hit me.
Christina's wedding is next month.
I hear a knock on the door.
"Who is it?"
"It's me let me in,"I hear Lauren say.
"Why so you can yell at me because I'm pregnant? So you can try to hurt me? Lauren I can't trust you anymore. We're three weeks into our marriage and I'm terrified of you,"
"I'm sorry. Just let me in,"
"It was never locked,"
The door opens and she looks at me.
"You've been up here all day, you haven't eaten anything,"She says.
"Lauren that's because every time I go downstairs without Christina you yell, you threaten to hit me. You don't even care about me anymore,"
"I do care about you,"
"No you don't. That changed when we figured out I was pregnant. I'm not killing this baby for you! I'm not going to give it up!"
"Fine keep it, but if you expect me to take care it once it's born think again,"
"What the fuck is wrong with you Lauren? If it was someone else you wouldn't care, but sense it was your ex you do? You act like it's my fault I'm pregnant!"
"Why do want it?"
"Because Lauren I don't have a specific reason, but how do we know we'll get a chance in the future to have a kid? What if something happens and we can't have kids and this is our one chance? You want to give that up?"
"I'm just not ready,"
"We have nine months to get ready,"
"What happens if I need to go on a tour and you're here with the kid and something happens?"She asks sitting down.
"I have family Lauren they can help,"
"I'm just scared. We just got married and now we're opening a whole new chapter right away?"
"Lauren we'll get through this. We have time. We're not alone,"

"I know. What if I'm not fit to be a mother by the time you give birth? That scares me. It scares me that I won't be good for them. I hit you! I pushed you! I hurt you! What if I do that to them?"She says her voice shaking.
"Lauren it was once. We have time to adjust. Lauren I know people who have kids. I know people who got pregnant as teenagers and doubted it for a moment but don't regret giving birth. I can talk to them. You can talk to them. Lauren I want to be a mom. But you have to want that to. Or else we aren't gonna work,"
"I do, I'm just to scared,"
"I get that, but we're going to get through this,"
She leans closer to me and I gently push her away.
"I'm not comfortable with you touching me yet Lauren,"
"I'm sorry,"She says looking down.
"Can we just go out? Do something? Forget about this for a day?"She asks.
"Yup. But you're driving!"
"I was going to anyway,"
"Let me change then I'll go downstairs,"I say getting up.
She nods and walks out.
I put on sweatpants and Lauren's cactus hoodie.
I walk out of the room and I go downstairs.
I put on white Nike's and Lauren looks at me.
"Can we not tell anyone that you're pregnant for a while or at least until you start showing? It's just you never what could go wrong,"She says.
"Yeah that was my plan,"I say and grab her hand.
She smiles and intertwines our fingers.
"Why didn't you want me to be pregnant?And none of that 'I'm just not ready' "I ask.
"I don't know. A child is going to change our lives forever. It's not gonna be the same,"
"I know Lauren. Think about it though do you really to give this opportunity up?"
"I don't know. I want you to keep it but at the same time I don't,"
"Well I'm keeping it. Now let's go out I haven't stepped out of this house in two weeks,"I say dragging her to the door.
"What do you want to eat?"She asks.

"You're asking as if I ever know what I want to eat,"I say.
"How about sonic?"She asks.
"You have an obsession with that place,"
"It's not my fault,"She says grabbing her keys.
"Yeah whatever. Now let's go I'm hungry!"
"Calm down child,"She says smiling.
We go to her car and she drives to sonic.
Once we get there and order we sit at a table and Lauren's phone vibrates.
Her face drops when she looks at it.
"What's wrong?"I ask.
"Nothing. Nothings wrong,"She says faking a smile.
"Lauren talk to me. What happened?"
"Christian got my number. He knows your pregnant and he wants to talk to you,"She says.
"How did he find out?"I ask.
"I don't know,"
"It's fine Lauren. He was going to find out eventually,"
"Shit,"She mumbles.
"That's his car,"She says.
"It's fine Lauren. There's a lot of people around he can't do anything,"
"Hey so I heard you're pregnant,"I hear behind me and I instantly jump.
"Get the hell away from us Christian,"Lauren says pulling me into her.
"It's fine Laur,"I mumble.
"You're having that kid. You're not going to kill it,"Christian says.
"I wasn't going to. I get that the father is fucked up but I'm going to give it a chance. And how the hell did you find out?"I ask.
"A friends friend. I want to be there for the kid,"
"You're fucked up if you think you're going anywhere near me or the child,"I say.
Lauren grabs her phone and calls someone.
"That's my kid!"
"It's also my life!"
Lauren says something to the person on the phone and then she hangs up.
"You belong behind a cell,"Lauren says to Christian.
Christian grabs my arm and Lauren instantly puts her phone down and pushes him away.
The fucked up part is people are recording and not helping.
"Don't you ever touch her!"Lauren yells.
"I hope you know the police are on their way,"Lauren says.
He pushes her back and suddenly finally someone decides to grab Christian and hold him down until the police got here.
It's been about a month since the incident at sonic.
Christian is in jail and turns out the people that were recording posted the videos. Now everyone knows I'm pregnant.
Lauren and I are going live on Instagram to answer questions.
She sets up her phone and looks at me.
"You ready?"She asks grabbing my hand.
"I don't know, but I have to explain. Just start it,"I respond.
She starts it and we wait a few minutes before finally deciding to talk.
"Hey guys so we're live so that we can explain some things that many of you know. I'm pregnant and I just wanted to address the situation before rumors start,"I say.
Most of the comments are calling me a cheater and a slut.
"To everyone calling her names I just want you to know how to ask questions before you say anything. She didn't cheat on me and she isn't a slut. If you want to keep calling her that stuff despite the facts then you can leave,"Lauren says.
"Alright first question. 'If she didn't cheat how did she get pregnant?' Wow so um. No one knows this because I don't like speaking about my personal life, but as many of you guys saw from the videos going around yes Christian is the father. He actually came and forced himself on me after me telling him repeatedly to stop. He raped me and got me pregnant. I didn't cheat I would do that to Lauren. I was raped and this is probably the only time I'm going to talk about it. I am about eight weeks pregnant and we weren't going to tell anyone for a while but seeing how people would rather record than help got that out there. If any of you guys need help getting over being taken advantage of you can always DM me and I will try to respond to as many of you. But anyway that's how I got pregnant,"I say.
Lauren kisses my head and pulls me into her.
I instantly smile and she reads more questions and we answer them for about an hour before we get off.
I lay down and she gently shakes me.
"Babe you have a doctors appointment,"She says.
I groan.
"I forgot about that,"
"Yeah now get up. Come on,"She says grabbing my hands.
I get up and we leave.
Time for a doctors appointment.

MY FAKE DUNGEON
Giant doors suddenly appeared all over the world. Alex knowing the truth, now has to wander beyond the doors to save his world. But he realized he alone wasn't enough so he sought help from the others, of which he called them... Players.. _______ A heads up, I'm sure you'd be able to infer from the synopsis, this is something like a dungeon owner mc but I just like to say that there is no heavy litrpg to this even thought the mc calls them players. No system (except for mc?) and no level up like that. Just mc trying to use people for his own good. If I had to describe this novel in three words it be, guns, despair, and monsters. WARNING: I'm a complete amateur at writing and my English sucks so.. yahh.. I will post these on other sites such as webnovel and scribblehub as well.
