Hey guys, well I'm no good at this kinda stuff so I'll keep it short. This is just a little scene that popped into my head and I just had to write it, I was going to just write it for myself but decided what's the harm in uploading :) Not sure if I am going to continue or whether I will just leave it as a one shot. Please leave a review I love hearing what people think of my writing good or bad.

"You're what?" Carla asked in shock looking at the petrified barmaid sat across the table from her like she had grown another head.
"I'm pregnant" Tina replied even quieter than the first time.
"Well, err, congratulations, but urm who is the father, I wasn't aware you were seeing anyone? And no offence but I'm not seeing how this has anything to do with me like you said" Carla asked, her hand subconsciously resting on her own growing bump.
"Well, urm, yes you see, Urm"
"Just spit it out will ya" Carla interrupted starting to get agitated at the slow pace of the conversation
"Peter" Tina almost shouted before instantly recoiling back into herself
"Peter?" Carla repeated confused "Peter what?" Tina glanced up catching Carla's eyes as realisation hit her."No, no just no! You're lying! Tell me you're lying!" Carla screamed as tears started trickling down Tina's face.
"How long?" Carla asked, her stony glare desperately searching Tina's face for answers. Tina remained silent, scared as to what Carla might do next. "I SAID, HOW LONG?" Carla screamed thumping her fist on the table and leaping to her feet. She turned away from Tina, no longer able to look at her as she ran her hands through her hair trying to calm herself down.
"A...a couple of months, a year maybe," Tina almost whispered her head buried in her hands. Carla whipped round, arms folded across her chest.
"Have fun did ya? Sneaking around behind my back, banging my husband at every opportunity?"
"It wasn't like that!" Tina replied finding her fight
"Oh, okay then so how was it then Tina, you tell me. Did you 'accidently' fall into bed and he 'accidently' fell on top?"
"We had a connection, He said he loved me!"
"Well what a coincidence we also had a connection, WE ARE FUCKING MARRIED!" Carla shouted her temper rising rapidly "And he has told me he loved me plenty of times but apparently that was all a joke too!"
"We never wanted to hurt anyone, we are in love. He promised to tell you weeks ago" Tina shouted her temper rising to meet Carla's
"Someone was always going to get hurt the second you started sleeping with a married man!" Carla screamed back unable to believe what she was hearing.
"It was just as much him as it was me" Tina lowered he voice trying to defend herself.
"Oh don't you worry I know! Now get your lying, cheating, scumbag arse out of my flat now" Carla barked swinging the front door open. "GET OUT NOW!"
Tina jumped up from her seat, grabbed her coat and stormed out the door narrowly avoiding being hit as Carla slammed it causing the whole flat to shake. Carla calmly walked over to the table and picked up the mug Tina had been drinking from. A perfect lipstick mark was wrapped round the edge. Rage pumped through her body, she launched the cup as hard as she could at the door screaming her lungs out. The cup smashed spraying its content across the carpet.
Carla's legs gave way under her as she collapsed on the floor, sobs retching through her body. The strong independent Carla Barlow was broken. She had been through so much but this was her breaking point
