Chapter 33
Hannah's point of View
"Ok, thank you bye," I said to the counter server at Mc'donandls. I was going to make something for breakfast but I realized I needed to go shopping because there was barely anything in the kitchen. Al had left about a week ago, right after he promised he would try to talk to me every day. Yes I was missing him, like a lot, and sometimes lonely, but he manages to talk to me. Whether we facetime, or call, or when he's busy he'll leave a sweet message saying he loves me and might not respond as quickly. So now I was walking back to the driver, on my way to the grocery store. I had also planned to face my biggest fears today, driving, with the help of Jules and David of course. I never learned how to drive, but got my license. I'm afraid of driving because of what happened to my foster mom. They said that she was driving normally and then someone just crashed into her just like that, and she died, just like that. But I knew I had to learn someday.
"Mam, we are here, what time would you like me to come back?″
"Oh no need to come back 'im driving myself"
he looked at me shocked
" Ha, yes I'm, I'm going to learn to drive today, see ya," I said laughing and walking in the store
Around 12 or 1 I finished my shopping. Now all I had to do was take a quick cab, drop off the bags, change my clothes, and call Jules and David. So I saw the nearest car and got in. Once I arrived home, I put everything away and took a shower. I didnt want to goal out because we were just learning how to drive so, I just wore a black crop top and grey sweat pants. I didnt wear any makeup and my hair styled in a high ponytail. I also put on some blue airforces. After I fixed up the house and made sure everything was locked and secure, I grabbed my purse and walked into the elevator. Then I called Jules and she answered on the second ring,
"Hello"
"Hey Jules, you ready for the driving lesson?"
"yep, leaving right now"
"Ok, ill call David "
"Does he have to go? were just fine on our own"
"Yes he has to go, Jules, I want both of you guys to come, you guys are still fighting? geesh, it's been a week already, what even happened?″
"Nothing" she replied, then hanging up the phone.
Nothing my ass.
I called David next,
"Hello?"
"It's me, are you ready?"
"Oh what's sup shrimpy, what do you want?"
"What do you mean what do I want? you're supposed to be ready and out the door getting ready to meet me at the coffee shop"
"What exactly am I supposed to be ready for?"
"Ugh I told you, you guys are teaching me to drive, your the one that bullied me into doing it, god I swear you don't listen to shit I say"
"Oh right, I remember now"
"Okay so then get your ass up and meet me and Jules at the coffee shop in ten minutes"
"Does she have to come, I could just teach you?"
"Oh my god, yes she has to come, she's my best friend, what happened between you guys?"
"Nothing" then he too hung up
"Ugh, what is up with people not telling me anything?". I said walking outside. It took me about ten minutes to reach the coffee shop. Since I was the first one there I stood outside and waited, playing subway surfer until they arrived. First, I saw Jules's white sedan and she was wearing a yellow dress, matching heels, and her hair down.
"Hey bitch, I missed you"
she said running up to me and hugging me
"Hey, I missed you too "I replied returning the hug
then next came to David pulling up in his blue roadster. He stepped out of his car wearing black jeans and a blue-collar shirt.
"hey shrimpy, how you been?" he said pulling me in for a choking hug
"Hey, I'm good, you guys ready to start?" I said getting out of the hug before he killed me.
"Hell Nah, we're getting something to eat before we start," David said walking inside the shop. I and Jules had no choice but to follow him inside. He probably knew the owner and everyone in it, because he didnt has to go up to the counter to get us a table, instead, he just chose one and sat down. Once we were all seated me and Hannah on one side of the table and David by himself on the other side.
"Well now that I have you to and not withal here to distract me, I need to talk to you guys okay?"
"Ah shit, what is it now shrimpy"
"Um, I just remembered I have a doctor's appointment so I'm g...."
They both said complaining
"Noo, come on guys don't do me like that, sit your asses down, you guys need to work this out, now what the hell is the problem? why are you guys at each other's throats like cats and dogs?"
"Ask him″
"Ask her"
I sighed.
"When was the last time you guys were together?″
"I don't know p..."
"two days before al said he was leaving, which means two weeks two days ago," David said surprisingly.
"Ok good, what did you guys do that night, or what did you want to do that lead to this fighting"
Neither one of them spoke but instead just started smirking, and eventually, I understood,
"oh my god, Ewww, nevermind, what did you do or want to do after your little get together?"
Again neither one of them spoke but they weren't smirking instead they looked sad,
"David, can you go get us some coffee? and then go to the bathroom for like five minutes?"
"Whatever, I don't want to be around her anyway"
he said walking off. Once he was out of sight, I turned Jules chair toward me.
"Ok, now talk to me Jules, what happened? you never act like this over a guy this is the longest you've stayed with a guy"
she sighed before saying, "You're not gonna tell him right?"
" Absolutely Not"
"Alright, well that night, after we got done you know, we were on my bed cuddling and just talking about random things, but then he mentioned something about relationships, he was just playing around, but I started thinking about, and I realized I wanted to make us official you know, like actually do the whole boyfriend and girlfriend thing. So I tried making a little joke about us being in a real relationship but he turned me down. So I got like really upset and kicked him out, so that's how we're here now"
"Hmm, I see, thank you for telling me, Jules"
"Your welcome, now you see why I'm upset right?"
hell no
"Mhmm, sure"
Just in time, David came back with 2 cups of coffee, because he knew Jules didnt drink it.
"Oh great, she's still here"
"Shut up"
"Hey Jules your mascara and makeup is getting messed up, you should go check it in the mirror"
"Wait, oh my god, thank you, see I don't know what I would do without you bitch" she said getting up, taking her purse, and running to the restroom. Once she was gone I faced David since his seat was across from me.
"Alright talk shit head, what happened that night"
"I'm not telling you shit snollygoster"
"Yes you are, or ill blackmail you dog shit"
"With what?"
"I'll tell brick you guys were having sex inside his main office"
"Nice try we haven't had sex since that day"
"Nu-uh, before that, you know what I'm talking about dickhead"
at first, he genuinely looked confused but then I guess once he remembered he looked shocked, then whispered,
"How the fuck did you know?"
"I may be short but I can see the security cameras, in case you forgot I have to check them every day"
"You didnt watch us did you, cause then t..."
"Ewww, god no, my best friend and you are you, I mean I caught you guys in the act then shut it off, but that's not the point at all, the point is you need to talk to me"
he sighed and said,
"I wanted to be official like really bad. So I did what was obvious and told her that, instead she just laughed in my face"
"What do you mean, you told her directly?"
"Well I didnt tell her to tell her, I just made a joke referring to it you know, hinting, and she just shut me down. I should have know though, girls like her never want a guy like me"
"What do you mean, you guys would be a perfect couple, peanut butter and jelly type of thing"
"Fuck off"
"see now I tried to compliment your ugly ass."
"I'm not ugly ask your friend and everyone in t..."
Just then Jules came back looking gorgeous. I made sure they were both seated and didnt have a chance to run before saying,
"Ok guys, I've concluded"
"Oh god, we've been through this already shrimpy"
"Come on girl, just stop please"
"No wait just hear me out, you guys both wanted to make things official Jules, you wanted David to be your men but you were too scared to say anything and David wanted Jules to be your woman I think so he made a joke about it, thinking she just laughed at him he brushed it off, but she laughed because she thought she had got rejected if that makes sense. So bottom line, you both wanted to make things official but were too much of a pussy to say it" I said sitting back in my chair and feeling satisfied like I solved a case or something.
They both didnt say anything at first instead just stared at me dumbfounded. When they kept just staring I was beginning to get a little worried that my theory was wrong, and that would have been embarrassing, but thankfully they stopped staring at me and stared at each other
"Really? you want me to be your girlfriend babe?"
"Of course woman, why wouldn't I? I know I'm always goofy but I'm crazy about you?"
"Aww I am too, I'm so happy that you feel this way"
"So, Jules, will you be my girlfriend?"
"Of course"
she said hugging him from the table. Now there attitudes and frowns were replaced with smiles, which made me feel proud that I had made them and that they weren't fighting anymore
"Finally you guys aren't at each other's throat your too much of a p...." just as I was about to finish talking I felt nauseous and ran to the bathroom before I vomit all over the table.
After what felt like forever I made it to the stall toilet. Since I didnt have anyone to hold my hair, I just let it go on my back as I puked. For some reason everyone I threw up it felt like I was throwing up my whole insides. I had probably been vomiting for a straight minute before I finally felt like I was done. At this point I was tired so I just sat on the ground of the stall. Then as I was about to go in for round two the stall burst open. I couldn't just stop, so whoever came in I was going to have to see when I was done. But I felt my hair being lifted from where it had fallen on my shoulder,
"Its okay girl, get it all out"
Just then I knew it was Jules and was grateful it was only her and not some random coming to bash me.
"Thank you," I said finishing and sitting back on the floor. Unfortunately Jules didnt waste anytime.
"What's up, you've been throwing up, complaining about your head, what happened, did Al do something to you?"
"No, of course not, he wouldn't lay a hand on me, well except in other ways, but that's not the point, I'm fine, it was probably something I ate"
"Yeah, you said that last time and I believed it, but you only had a coffee, barely any of that, and I know you damn sure, not allergic to coffee, soo."
"Well maybe I am"
"no, don't try it, you want to know what I think?" she said sitting down next to me.
"No, but you're going to tell me either way "
"I think your pregnant "
"No, I'm not, that's just you and your imagination. You've always wanted me to have a kid."
"Fine maybe it is, but I can prove it"
"How?"
"Take the test, the pregnancy test"
"Hell no, I'm not even pregnant, that's not possible we used protection every time"
"Only one way to find out"
Jules said standing up and pulling me with her.
"Wait were really doing this? come on Jules this is ridiculous, there's no possible way I'm pregnant"
"Get your ass up, were going to get it if I'm right you have to let me dress you for two weeks, but if you're not pregnant then you can dress me for two weeks"
"No, you have to pay for everything"
"Fine, deal"
"Ok, watch you'll see," I said walking out of the stall, Jules following behind.
"But wait first we need to clean you up a little bit"
she said grabbing wipes out of her bag and some gum. There wasn't much to work with, but we got the job done. Soon I was looking a little better and we were walking back out to David.
"Woah what the hell happened to you shrimpy? you look uglier than usual? you must have had the growlers huh? that coffee got to you? Cause the way you ran in that bathr...."
"Shut the fuck up"
"Come on babe, it's not the time, here, we have to run, but come by tomorrow ok," Jules said to David and dragging me outside. I barely had time to grab my bag, but I was able to get it.
"Jules calm down we could have at least finished the coffee and I still have to take my driving lesson with you guys," I said trying to keep up with her running. I still don't know how she was able to run in high heels, but that was definitely a talent.
"Oh no, we're doing this right now, you can learn how to drive some other day"
"Wait no, I want to drive today though"
she stopped walking to whistle for a cab and when it came she paid him and dragged me inside,
"Look Hannah, I get it, you want to finally learn how to drive, but sweetie, you haven't done it in 5 years you can wait another day"
"Alright fine let's go get this pregnancy test, but I'm telling you I'm not pregnant"
"Um no, you're staying at the house, while I go get it, you're not walking in there like this"
"Wow, I didnt want to go in anyway, too many people"
"Good, ill drop you off at your house, go around the corner to get the test, and when I come back you'll take the test, got it?"
"Yeah"
"What will you do while I'm going, I won't take that long, as many times I've had pregnancy scares I know what to do "
"Yeah well I've never had any, speaking of al is like only the third person I've been with, and since I know I'm not pregnant I don't have to spend my time freaking out, I'll just out away some of my groceries I didnt get to put up earlier."
"Were here" she said as the cab driver pulled up to me and Al's house.
"See you shortly," I said as I got out of the car and they drove off. It took me about 5 minutes to reach the elevator because they were so many people coming inside today. But once I reached the place I flopped on the couch. With the silence and no one around, my thoughts were ninety going north,
What if I am pregnant? This could ruin everything. I know for a fact Al doesn't want any children, and he would also be upset. I mean I just got back with him, like seriously. We just said I love you. I don't want to lose him as soon as I get him.
I stopped thinking about it when I heard the elevator ding.
"Come on bitch, go to the bathroom"
"Woah, how the hell did you get here so quick? I swore it was barely fifteen minutes, I just sat down"
"I told you I wasn't going to take long, now chop, chop, to the bathroom," she said dropping her purse on the counter and handing me a bag. I got up off the couch and walked to the first bathroom. I sat down on the counter as she took stuff out of the bag,
"This is a snack for before you know just to get your system working, and some water for you to pee. And this is a spray bottle in case you faint"
"Why would I faint? I'm not pregnant "
"We'll see, here, eat these and drink the water, hurry up"
she said handing me a small bag of skittles and water. I ate all of them in one hand full and took a couple of sips of water before she took them away from me and gave me a stick.
"Ok, give me the test"
"I just did"
"Jules, what the fuck am I supposed to do with this? I said a pregnancy test, not a stick"
"Bitch that is the test"
"Really?"
"Yeah"
"Oh, so I just pee on it?"
"Yes, you pee on the stick and the results will appear on the stick after a few minutes, I'll keep a timer on for about 5 minutes"
"Ok"
I was a little scared and my anxiety was getting crazy right now. But I was almost confident I wasn't pregnant, even though a small part of me was saying there might be a chance.
"Then bust it open and pee woman"
"I am, can I get some privacy at least geesh"
"Fine ill be in the living room, as soon as you are done peeing on the stick you bring it out, turn it around and sit it on the counter so I can put the timer on, got it?"
"Yeah, yeah, get out"
After she left I didnt want to be stuck alone with my thoughts cause god knows what I would do to myself, so I hurried up and pissed on the stick.
"Ok I'm done, put the timer on," I said running out of the bathroom and putting the stick on the counter
"Good job sweetie just started it, now we wait five minutes"
"Alright," I said walking to the fridge and trying to distract myself by making a sandwich. I made sure I took my time putting the bread and meat slowly. After I was done I walked back over to Jules,
"It's not done yet? it should be ready now"
"No. It's only been two minutes "
"Shit"
"What are you nervous about? do you think you're pregnant? yep, you do"
"No, I'm not nervous,"
I said lying right through my teeth,
"I'm just thinking whether your paying for the new sneakers I'm getting or the new hoodie, actually no, you'll pay for both, because I'm not pregnant"
"Mhm, well see about in precisely two minutes"
Since I didnt have anything else to do I started pacing back and forth from the door to the kitchen waiting for it to ring. Each second that went by I could feel myself beginning to panic and my anxiety getting stronger and stronger. It was the longest two minutes in the fucking world. Like time couldn't go any slower.
BEEP BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP.
"Ok that's the timer bitch, come on," Jules said jumping off the couch and running to the counter, I followed right behind.
"Here I'll let you show it"
"No, you "
"Hannah, you show it, its your test,"
"No, Jules, I insist"
"No, Hannah, I beg you"
"No Jul..."
"I got it god damn," she said grabbing the stick and turning it upside down on the counter,
"Omg i....."
