Chapter 21

Shanice's POVI was sitting in a coffee shop waiting for the manager to come out, I had an interview for a job as a waitress. It wasn't a dream job, but I was running low on money and fast, with all these events the 1D boys had coming up I would have to keep buying dresses and I didn't have that type of money, luckily I had gotten both a work and holiday VISA otherwise this could be classed as illegal.

The manager walked out and sat across from me. She was in her mid-thirties, perfectly straight jet black hair and piercing green eyes, I must say I was a little intimidated.

"So Shanice, why did you come over to England?" she asked me as she examined my resume.

"A holiday with my best friend, sort of like a gap year to celebrate finishing school" I answered trying to sound confident.

"And you are running out of money?" she asked giving me a sly smile.

I gave a nervous laugh "Something like that"

"And you're the girl who's dating Louis Tomlinson, doesn't he have like a crap load of cash?" she raised an eye brow at me, I had the feeling this was a test.

"I don't like him spending his money on me" I told her "I'm not one of those girls who believe guys should pay for everything, I like to put in my share."

"I like you, you're hired" she said then simply stood up and walked inside.

"Ahh okay, totes weird but I'll take it" I mumbled to myself with a smile. I was guessing that she would call when she was to start.

I sent a quick text to Hayley and Mel to let them know.

To: Liam Payne's lover; Sexy beast
Got the job =] now off to the doctors I'll let you guys know as soon as I get the results. Xx

Melissa's POV

This was my 5th interview since I started looking, all the others had turned me down.

The man in front of me was examining my resume to the extreme. He looked up at me from behind the white piece of paper.

"Sorry but you don't have the qualifications we are looking for" he stated simply and being so unbelievably rude by just walking off.

I ran my hand through my hair frustrated as I looked around the retail store. How hard could it fucking be to do this job? I got up and stormed out of the shop. I didn't know what the hell I was going to do.

I walked the streets of London when my phone went off. It was from Shanice telling me she had gotten the job she went for. I groaned replying to her.

To: Bitch Lips
Thats great Congratz =] I got the job too. Xx

Okay so I felt bad for lying to my best friend but it was the only think I could think to do.

Something caught my eye, it was a help wanted sign. I looked up at the bar and noticed that it was one of those old Burlesque houses. I shrugged my shoulders and headed inside.

It didn't look like the best place in the world but I guess it's not the worst either. A lady with big curly blonde hair looked up at me. Her face covered in makeup and her lips a cherry red.

"What can I do for you love?" She asked eying me up and down. "We don't get girls like you walking around in here"

"Girls like me? What exactly do you mean by that?" I asked her in a defensive tone. Her eyes widened in surprise but she quickly recovered.

"The pure, innocent type. What are you doing in here?" she asked again.

"Look I saw the help wanted sign in the window, do you want my help or not?" I asked her, I knew I was being bitchy but right now I didn't care.

"Sassy, I like it, you can start tomorrow night" she told me going behind a curtain and walking back out with a pile of clothes.

"What's this?" I asked taking the clothes but eying them suspiciously.

"The bartender's uniform" she told me looking me up and down again. "I think you'll fill it out nicely. Pack on the makeup, crazy up the hair and with your attitude, you'll fit right in." She gave me a small smile as I made my way to the door.

"Thank you for this" I told her sincerely and walked off heading back home to wait for Shanice to get home from the doctors.

Shanice's POV

The doctor called my name and I headed into the examination room checking my phone before I went in. I had 2 new messages, one from Melissa telling me she got the job and one from Hayley.

From: Liam Payne's lover
WOOOO! So happy for you, good luck at the docs, I'll be waiting when you get home. Xx

I sat down in the spare seat. "What seems to be the problem?" The doctor asked me.

"Well I have been really nauseous lately, like I need to throw up but it's won't come out. I've also been getting really dizzy" I told her nervously, I always hated the doctors.

"And are you sexually active?" she asked me.

"Ahh yeah I am" I told her very, very uncomfortably.

"Hmm hmm, when was your last period?" she looked up from her computer this time. Oh god I didn't know, I had to count back the weeks, then I realised.

"Oh shit, 6 weeks ago, I never miss it, am I dying?" I asked her.

The doctor merely laughed at me. "Look I'm going to do some blood work" she said pulling out a needle and syringe; okay this I was used to. I held out my good arm and watched as she drew blood from my arm. She took the needle out and gave me a smile "I'll be back in a few minutes" then she walked out the door.

I sat there twiddling my thumbs until the lady doctor came back in. I looked up expectantly.

"I looked at your blood work and it would seem that..."

Oh shit, that was not what I was expecting.

I ran out of there as fast as I could, jumped in a taxi and it took me home. I opened the door and two familiar faces turned to look at me. I looked at them and felt my eyes start to water.

I ran right up the stairs and into my room locking both the main door and the door to the conjoining ensuite. I laid my head on my pillow curled up into a ball and cried my eyes out.

Melissa and Hayley knocked on the bedroom door. "GO AWAY!" I shouted at them, I heard some scratching on the door handle and sat up.

Next thing I know the door is being flung open and Hayley is holding the knife she used to somehow unlock my door. "What's wrong?" Melissa asked concerned.

"You don't want to know, it's not true the tests must be wrong, it can't be" I rambled on and on about how untrue it was.

"You can tell us" Hayley said softly grabbing my hand.

"You can't tell Louis, or any of the boys okay, it has to stay between us" I warned them "Pinky promise?" I held out my pinky and they both hesitated before wrapping their pinkies around mine.

"Now what's wrong?" Melissa asked again.

"I TESTED POSITIVE TO BEING FUCKING PREGNANT!" I screamed before sinking back down in my pillow.

Melissa and Hayley laid down on either side of me, holding one hand each, I cried my eyes out all night hoping to wake up and it all be a dream.
