I dialed Brandon's number even quicker
than usual.
"Hey babe I need to te-"
I cut him off before he could finish,
"Brandon. I had 3 texts waiting for me when I woke up.
One from Lea, asking me to call her.
One from you, asking me to call you.
And one from Jess. Her's was interesting she said something
about me not finding out?"
I kept my sarcastic tone as I continued.
"What was I not supposed to find out about
Brandon?"
I heard him breathe in slowly, getting ready to break my
heart.
"Mel, Do you remember that party two months ago? It was at
Jess's house? You were leaving for the Hawaii the next
day,
and you couldn't come..."
"Yeah... what about it?"
"Well Jess's parents were out of town, and some of the
older kids brought beer. Me and Jess were totally wasted after
an hour and she dragged me into her bedroom. We started hooking
up and it ended up getting a little out of hand."
I gasped a little, and I could tell he heard me.
"Mel, are you sitting down? There's more..."
"Just say it Brandon."
"Jess is pregnant."
"Melly where's mommy?" the
twins asked.
"Sleeping." I quickly answered.
"What do you want for breakfast?"
"Cereal!" Veronica answered.
"Ok, one cereal coming up. How about you
Anthony?"
"Cereal."
"Make that two cereals coming up."
I heard my phone buzz upstairs, so I quickly poured two bowls
of cereal and practically threw them onto the table.
I ran up the stairs, not much more gracefully than what
happened going down. I grabbed the shiny white iPhone from my
desk and pulled the charger out.
