Okay, your probably wondering what happened to Shane after Claire left him in the shower. And what happens at breakfast when Michael decides to ask Claire where she was last night...
Shane
AHHHH SHIT! THAT FUCKING KILLED! HOW CAN CLAIRE NOT KNOW THAT THE SHOWER TAP IS NOT MY DICK! SHE IS SO GONNA GET IT WHEN I GET MY HANDS ON HER!
I stood there for a moment, not being able to move because of the pain. Just as well last night happened though. A smile spread across my face when I thought about that. I have such a hot girlfriend! I stepped out of the shower, wrapped a towel around my waist and headed downstairs for a cup of coffee. I walked into the kitchen and was greeted by two of my house mates standing there, arms folding, not taking their eyes off me - probably coz I am so hot, I thought to myself.
"Morning" I said as I tried pushing past them to get to the coffee maker.
"Morning...go and get changed please, we need to talk to you and Claire."
"Why? We haven't done anything wrong and I only came down to get some coffee and say morning to my girlfriend." I pushed passed and went to where Claire was sat. I bent over and placed a kiss on her lips. "Morning babe, you okay?" A wide smile spread across her face as she brushed a small piece of hair off my face.
"Fab thanks"
"Good to hear" I gave her another long kiss to annoy Eve and Michael and went over to the coffee that was already made, poured myself a cup and headed upstairs to get changed. I couldn't be bothered to dress smart so I just threw on an old Eat Me T-Shirt and a grotty pair of jeans. I headed downstairs for the dailyinterrogation.
"Where were you two last night? And don't think of lying because I will know!" Michael was pissed, and not the drunk meaning.
"Here you dumb shit! You might think that we are stupid but me and Claire know not to go roaming the streets of Morganville in the dead of night!"
"I wasn't implying that!"
"Then what were you!"
"That you two just vanished after me and Eve went upstairs and I was curious to where you went and what you were doing!"
"We were in the house if you bothered to look hard enough! And what we were doing doesn't concern you or Eve so just butt out of our personal lives Michael!"
"Fine! But if something happens to you two, me and Eve will not take responsibility! CLEAR!"
"Yes SIR! Didn't realise you were my Dad!"
"That is it!" Michael ran at Shane with Vampire speed and pinned him against the wall by the throat. Shane went very still and his face started changing to a grey/blue colour.
"Stop it! Both of you! You're being childish! Michael! Let go! NOW!" Claire screamed at the top of her voice, tears brimming in her eyes. "Please..." Eve grabbed Claire by the shoulders and pulled her into a hug.
"See what you've done! You are such DICKS sometimes! Come on Claire, we'll go and get a coffee and go for a drive, yeah?" Eve felt a slight movement of Claire's head against her shoulder and walked out the kitchen with Claire next to her. "Sort it out before we get home please! Bye!" And with that Eve slammed the door and headed for her big black car.
Claire
I headed out to Eve's car, wiping the tears from my eyes and opening the passenger sides door. I slumped myself into the seat and slammed the door shut, watching as Eve pulled the car into gear.
"You okay Claire?"
"Yeah. Fine. You?"
"Good thanks. I know what just happened was hard for you to see but they were worse than that before you met them, trust me. One time we actually had to call the Police and Ambulance services, but don't tell the boys I told you that. But you have to think about how dangerous it is to get involved now, because of Michael being...well...y'know."
"I know...I'm just a bit emotional this morning. Nothing to worry about though. Promise."
"Okay. So where were you last night? I mean, I don't mind if you don't tell me what you were doing I just want to know where you were and who you were with. Please?"
"We were in the house, I swear." I paused a moment and Eve stared at me. I was worried that we were going to crash, she looked at me for that long. "Secret Room. Me. Shane. Fun." Eve slammed on the brakes and stopped dead, in the middle of the road.
"WHAT!"
"urrmmm"
"Right, we are going to get coffee and then you are going to explain!" Eve drove down the rest of the road and turned into a small car park near the coffee shop. She got a takeaway Mocha for me and a Caramel Frappachino for herself. We drove down to the local park where there was a lake and loads of places to sit.
"Okay so what did you mean by fun?"
"The way you usually mean it when you are with Michael?"
"CLAIRE!"
"What? It wasn't my fault, it just happened." I took a sip of my Mocha so that I didn't have to talk anymore.
"You should have stopped! I hope you were careful!"
"We were, I think? I had the pill..."
"Yeah but they don't always work Claire! I really hope you aren't pregnant Claire! I could do with out explaining that one to your parents and God knows what Michael will do! And Shane! I really hope he loves you because you should know that when things get difficult he usually gets out of it."
"Eve! I know that he loves me! Why would you doubt that! And it was just one night. Nothing bad is going to happen. I'll talk to him tonight and if it will put your mind at rest I will take a test soon. Promise. Just don't talk to Michael about it until I have please." I gave a weak smile and finished of my Mocha. Eve took me to the pharmacy and made me buy a test. So embarrassing!
We heading back home, and once we were there I rushed out and into the house, searching for Shane.
"SHANE! SHANE! SHHHAAANNNEEE!" He must be going deaf or something!
I didn't see him until dinner, and that was awkward. Nobody said a word to each other. The only things that were said was Pass the Coke or Chilli please. I headed upstairs for an early night, thinking I wouldn't be able to get to sleep but as soon as I lay my head on the pillow, I realised just how tired I was.
***
Two weeks had passed since my little talk with Eve and I still hadn't talked to Shane or taken the test, but I kept feeling really ill in the mornings. I kept telling myself it was just an illness going around the uni. I had a free day and so I decided to stop delaying doing the test, I mean how much harm can it do. I'm not having a baby, right? Where was Eve? I needed someone there for me, with me. I tried ringing her mobile. Nothing. I tried again and again but no answer. I decided to try once more and she answered.
"Heya CB! You Okay?"
"Heya...urmm...I really need you at the house, like right now..."
"What's wrong Claire! I'll be there as soon as I can!" And with that she hung up, leaving Claire feeling very alone.
The front door swung open and Eve stormed in. "CLAIRE! WHERE ARE YOU!" I walked out from the living room and saw Eve. I felt a sigh of relief escape my lips.
"What's wrong Claire?" Eve asked as she came over and hugged me, checking over that I was okay. "Well...I'm going to take that test today and I wanted someone with me, but you can go back to work if you want to. It's not that important."
"Yeah it is important Claire and I'm glad you phoned me because I want to be the first to know if you are having baby Claire's and Shane's." A smile spread across Eve's face and she pulled me up the stairs to the toilet and told me to hurry up because the suspense was killing her.
"Eve? What does a pink line mean? You have the box so I can't check." There was silence on the other side of the door for a few seconds.
"I'm sorry Claire."
"For what?"
"That Shane was so irresponsible and not thoughtful. He's going to have to take extreme care of you for the next 9 Months of your life Claire!" Eve pushed the door open and ran over to me and squeezed me really tightly. "You're having a baby Claire!" She said next to my ear. My legs went numb and I fell to the floor, everything dissolving into darkness.
"CLAIRE!"
I woke up in a hospital bed with Eve, Shane and Michael standing around me.
"Hey babe" Shane said as he stroked my hair. I pushed myself up and stared into his eyes, feeling his every breath on my face.
"Hey. I need to tell you something. Eve? Did you tell them yet?"
"No. It's your news to tell, not mine." She smiled at me then asked Michael to go and get her a cup of coffee.
"Eve, stay in here with me please, but close the door and shut the blinds please?" I watched as Eve do everything I asked her to and then sat down in the chair next to the bed. "Shane, this is going to be hard for you to hear and it was hard for me as well, but you should know that I am...I am..."
"Are you okay Claire?"
"Yeah I'm fine...Shane, I am going to have your child."
"I know you are but that is in the future...wait...what?"
"I'm pregnant. I'm having your baby...I need you Shane, okay. I know it is going to be hard but please don't leave me. Please."
"I would never leave you Claire. And that is fantastic news, but how are we going to tell Michael, or your parents?"
"I'm not going to tell my parents until the pregnancy is nearly over, because they will make me abort it otherwise and I don't want to kill our baby Shane...I don't!"
"And you wont have to. We will all be here for you every step of the way babe." He leant down and placed a gentle kiss on my forehead. "Now for the fun part, telling Michael..."
