Carla's poV:
I've had my suspicions for a few weeks now...
I was 3 weeks late but I presumed it was due to stress. No appetite for wine, getting nausea from food I used to enjoy eating.
It all made sense.
"Carla?"
"Carla?" Peter repeats as we sit at the desks in the factory.
"What?" I mumble.
"Are you okay? You seem a bit preoccupied?" He questions, concerned.
"Yeah yeah I'm fine but I er...I've got to go." I lie.
"Go? Go where?"
"Lunch with Chelle. I'll be back by one yeah?" I force a smile as I grab my bag and hurry out.
As soon as I'm out of underworld I lean against the brick walls and sigh deeply.
It's not even as if I could go to talk to Michelle about my suspicions. She's want to know who the father was and I wasn't up for a bollocking today.
I get into my car quickly and zoom off to a shop where they'd sell it. There was absolutely no way I'd buy one from Devs; no one could know about this...not yet anyway.
Peters poV:
Once I've let the factory lot out for their lunch, I am on my way to the bistro to see Leanne and Simon about the upcoming trial. Upon walking in, I immediately spot Michele working busily behind the bar.
"Michelle? I question confusingly.
"What." She responds bluntly.
"Where's Carla? I thought you were having lunch with her?"
"What? No I'm working until 5." She frowns.
"Oh" peter murmurs.
"She was probably trying to get away from you...you're like a dog with a bone. Leave her alone! I won't tell you again!" She snaps.
"We work together Michelle! I can't exactly just leave her alone can I?"
"Well why did you buy into the business in the first place then eh? I know; to get your claws back in, you knew she wouldn't be able to resist temptation and now you're expecting to just jump into bed with her?"
"Oh my god Michelle I don't have time for this! You don't know what you're going on about!" Peter shakes his head.
"Do you even know how much you hurt her? When you slept with the baby sitter on your wedding night? Lied through your teeth to her for 5 months! Whilst she was carrying your baby...getting wasted all the time; either that or sleeping with a girl young enough to be your daughter!"
"Carla's seemed to forgive me so maybe you should too. I'm going." I swiftly leave, unable to hear anymore of this nonsense.
Leanne and Simon could wait.
I don't even understand why she just jumped on my because I asked where Carla was? Ridiculous.
Hey, just checking you're alright. You haven't been to lunch with Michelle because I've just spoken to her. Ring me x
Carla's poV:
Deep breaths.
Yeah something came up, I was just at a meeting with my bank. Back in 20.
I don't want to lie to him but he can't find out yet, no way.
I don't even know for certain however stuffing the rectangular box into my bag I enter Roys, and rush upstairs.
"Carla-..." Roy shouts but I ignore him.
The blotchy eyes would be a giveaway.
I immediately go into the bathroom otherwise I know if I thought too much into it beforehand, I wouldn't have the guts to do it.
Because I'm weak.
2 minutes.
The longest 2 minutes.
Sitting on the side of the bath I don't have the courage too look down at the device that lays on my fingertips.
Taking deep breaths in and out I force myself not to cry. Blinking away the tears I look down with as much strength as possible and see it.
Oh.
Positive.
So as this was just an introduction, this isn't long at all however other chapters will be! Leave reviews or suggestions on how you want this story to plan out however I do have quite a few of ideas. Xx
