Chapter 36
"So, do we hold hands or
something?" I asked Travis nervously, as we snuggled up
against each other in his bed later that night.
Travis smirked, as his fingers played with the ending tips of my
brown locks.
"Well, truth be told, I'd rather makeout." he
chuckled teasingly, earning a murderous glare from me. "But,
holding hands sound nice, too."
I rolled my eyes, slapping my palm against his, before gently
releasing my fingers around his.
"You should get neither for being so picky." I snapped
jokingly. "But, you're lucky that I don't hate
you."
Travis smiled, biting his lower lip teasingly.
My eyes immediately shifted down towards his rosy red lips, as I
had the sudden urge to press my lips against his.
I looked away, as I felt my cheeks turning warm by just thinking
about how attractive he looked at this moment.
"So, does that mean you like me?" Travis whispered, his
hot breath tickling the edge of my ear.
I narrowed my eyes at him, but I couldn't help but crack a
small smile.
Everything about Travis made me unreasonably happy- and it was
driving me insane.
"I never said I like you." I scoffed.
Travis let out a snort, before wrapping his arms around my waist
tightly.
"Right, you don't need to say anything, Riley." he
whispered, planting a light kiss on my cheek. "I know that
you like me without you having to say it."
I got shivers just from being so near him, so I pushed him away
from me.
"You're too full of yourself, Travis." I licked my
lips, before smiling.
Scarlet's Point of View
I held up the little white stick in my hands, staring at the blue
plus sign with disbelief.
I wasn't crying yet, but I knew I was about to burst into
uncontrollable tears in any second.
I was pregnant.
"So, what is it?" Lola asked impatiently, knocking from
outside of my bathroom door. "Are you knocked up or
not?"
The first tear finally slipped from my eyes, but that was not the
last one.
My cheeks turned red in a matter of seconds, matching the color
of my bloodshot eyes.
I slowly opened the door, as it creeked open.
Lola was leaning against the door frame, crossing her arms.
When she saw my tear-stained cheeks, her mouth dropped open.
"No way." she muttered, before laughing obnoxiously.
"You're pregnant! I have to tell everyone about
this!"
My eyes widened, as I slapped Lola's phone away from her
hands.
It fell on the floor, but it didn't break.
"What the hell, Scarlet?" she hissed, glaring at me.
"You could've broken it!"
"You can't tell anyone that I'm pregnant!" I
begged.
Lola held my gaze, before she snickered.
"Of course not, Scar. Why would I ever?" she asked
sweetly. "I am your best friend, right?"
I nodded, before giving her a weak smile.
"Right."
I'm not sure if I'm updating on Monday or
Tuesday, but in advance, I want to wish everyone a Merry
Christmas!
I love you all to bits and pieces.
