A Little White Piece of Paper
Chapter 7
A/N Hey guys! My computer is being retarded with Fan fiction right now so I'm kinda…Grr…By the way, for any clothing I describe(like Cameron's dress in chapter three on the roof top) I have added a link on my home page. Check it out! But, fan fiction is being retarded so it may not be there. Look anyway though! Thanks to my beta, bookwormkiwi. Anyway, on with the story! I love you all!
Oh my God, thought Chase. Cameron was pregnant. With his child. What was he going to do? What was he going to say? Would she tell him? Would she leave him? Would she have the child? Would she get an abortion? What was he going to do?
Slowly and quietly, he left Cameron's bathroom, making sure that everything was in its original place. He grabbed his keys off her kitchen counter and left. On the walk back to his car, those same questions kept running through his mind. He got into his car and turned up the radio as loud as he could take. Right now, all he wanted to do was forget about what he saw. But he couldn't. The image was burned into his mind with a metal poker. After what seem like hours, he pulled into the parking lot of his apartment. He had come to the conclusion that he should not mention anything to Cameron about what he had seen. When she was ready, she would tell him.
The next day at work, Chase ran into Cameron in the locker rooms. She had bags under her eyes. She did have makeup on them, but in being so distracted thinking about her pregnancy test, she did not cover them up well.
"Hey honey." She said, giving her a sweet kiss on the lips. "Rough night?"
"Oh. Um…yeah. I didn't sleep too well."
"I can tell. Here. Let me see that," He said, pointing to the concealer she had left, abandoned, on the edge of the sink. She handed in to him and he gently held her face in his left hand as he fixed the make up under her eyes with her right hand. His touch was so gentle she wanted to melt in his arms. With every stroke of his fingers, her stomach fluttered. Gradually, he stopped applying the make up on her left eye. He stood there and became lost in the overwhelming green of her eyes.
"Is something wrong?" Cameron asked, panic creeping into her words.
"No it's just…you are so beautiful." She could feel the heat rising up into her cheeks like a thousand suns warming her from the inside out. He loved it when she blushed. When he finished her makeup, you would never be able to tell at first glance she had a long night. She was wearing an black oxford and black slacks.
"What are we doing tonight?" She asked, referring to their date.
"Oh. I thought I would surprise you." He smiled at the thought of their plans.
"Attire?"
"Your sexiest dress," he said. He couldn't wait to see what she would cook up tonight!
He came to pick her up that night and was once again, breathless. She was wearing a semi long Latin red dress with black strappy heals.
"You look beautiful."
"You don't look too shabby yourself." She flicked off the lights and followed him to his car. She couldn't wait to find out what he had planned for her tonight.
He pulled into the parking lot of a fancy restaurant. He got out and opened her door for her. He grabbed hold of her hand, and slamming the door, led her into the restaurant. A man in tails with a list approached them.
"Reservation for two."
"Name?" asked the cocktail waiter.
"Robert Chase." He answered.
"Right this way please. He led them to a quiet table for two. There were not other diners in that particular section, so they had the benefit of privacy. They sat down and the waiter handed them their menus.
"Our specialty tonight is stuffed lobster with an appetizer of clam chowder." The waiter walked away, leaving the couple in peace.
"Is something wrong?" Chase asked, seeing how tense and scared she looked. This was not the Allison he was used to. She was usually calm, relaxed, and perfectly put together. Her facial expression worried him.
"Oh God. I don't know how to say this. But…I'm pregnant." She burst into tears and buried her face in her hands. Chase pulled her hands by the wrists away from her face and stared into her eyes.
"It's okay. It's okay. Shhh..." he soothed her.
"How are we supposed to raise a child? We don't live with each other; we both have such busy lives…Oh God. What have we gotten ourselves into?" she sobbed.
"We can do this, Ally! I know that we can."
"Oh Rob. It's just. I've never done this before!" Tears slid down her face as she spoke.
"Neither have I. But you have great maternal instincts and I know you won't fail as a mother. We'll be there to help each other. I was actually going to propose the idea of moving in together tonight." Chase calmly stated. A shocked look ran across Cameron's face. "You. Move in. With me?" she asked, unbelieving. The man she loved more than anything in this world wanted to move in with her. How could she say no?
"Yes. Me. Move in. With you." He gave a slight chuckle.
"Of course! I would love that!" A smile broke out across her face. Everything was going to be all right.
A/N Sorry for such a short chapter. I wanted to get one out soon and I haven't updated in a long time. Sorry about that by the way. Go to my profile to see Cameron's cocktail dress, 5 reviews to continue!
