Seth stared at Becky wide-eyed. He refused to believe she had just said what he thought he heard her say. It was impossible. He had been so careful. He used condoms everytime, and she was on birth control.
"I'm pregnant," she repeated.
He started sweating. His heart started beating faster, and not in a good way. He wanted out of this room, out of this house, away from this woman who he clearly didn't know as well as he thought he did.
"Aren't you happy? We're gonna be parents," she said.
"It's not mine," he said.
Her smile dropped. Anger seemed to take over instead.
"It's yours!" She hissed.
"I want a paternity test," he said.
"Don't be ridiculous," she said.
"I want a paternity test," he repeated.
"I refuse," she said.
That was all he needed to hear to be sure it wasn't his. It shouldn't be such a big of a deal to prove to him that he was the father if she was so damn sure. Instead he marched into the bedroom, grabbed a backpack, and stuffed some clothes into it.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
He turned around and found her standing there with a look of fear on her face. She knew what he was doing. He was leaving.
"You know I don't want children," he said.
"Accidents happen," she shrugged. "I'm five months pregnant. Too late to get rid of it now."
"You planned this," he said.
"Maybe," she smirked.
"I want no part in this," he said.
"You don't get a choice," she said.
He took a deep breath and let out a loud sigh.
"Once it's born and if it's proven to be mine, I'll pay whatever the court says I have to pay. But that's it. You're on your own," he said.
"Excuse me!" She raised her voice. "You better not leave this house if you know what's best for you!"
He marched past her and out in the hall. He put on a pair of shoes, grabbed his jacket, and left the house.
"Seth Rollins, you get back in here!" She yelled.
He unlocked his car and opened the door. He looked over the car roof at her. For some reason all the love he had felt seemed to die in the moment he locked eyes with her. He didn't know this woman anymore.
"You can't fucking leave me, Seth," she said.
Her voice was suddenly full of desperation. He got into his car and drove away. He knew she would reach out to his mother, Roman and Dean first in search of him. He needed to go somewhere she wouldn't think of.
He drove to his friend Finn's house. He could only hope Finn would accept him staying there for a while. Just until he could figure out what to do. He parked the car and went to knock on the door. It opened and he was met by a smile he hadn't seen in a while. The same bright blue eyes as Finn and the same dark hair color, only her hair went to the middle of her back.
"I was expecting the delivery guy but I'll take whatever you're serving," she said.
She grinned at him. She shared the same grin as three years older brother.
"Hi, Kellie," he said.
"Hi, Seth," she said. "Finn didn't say you'd be stopping by. I would have ordered another pizza if I had known."
"I didn't tell him. I need to crash here for a few days," he said.
"Come on in then," she said.
He stepped inside, got out of his shoes, and followed Kellie into the living room where Finn was sitting.
"Seth? What brings you here?" Finn asked.
"He wants to be adopted by you," Kellie joked.
That joke broke down Seth. He sat down on the couch and started crying. Kellie looked so worried even though she had no idea what had led up to this moment. A joke about being adopted was too much in this mess. She sat down and wrapped her arms around him. He leaned into the hug and cried shamelessly.
"I left Becky," Seth said.
"I'm sorry," Kellie said.
"What happened?" Finn asked.
"She's pregnant," Seth said.
"Oh," Kellie said. "So you're gonna be a..."
"It's not mine!" He said loudly.
He sat up and stared at her. He needed her to believe him. He needed her to know that he wasn't about to be a deadbeat father and a man with heavy baggage coming with him. She of all people couldn't look at him that way. That would break his heart even more.
"So who did she sleep with?" Finn asked.
"I don't know," Seth said. "I had a feeling something was up a while back. Someone had been in my box of condoms. It was moved just slightly. I don't even know why I noticed. I had this weird feeling inside so I went and bought other condoms and stored them somewhere else without her knowledge. I never used any from that box."
"Do you think she messed with them?" Finn asked.
"I don't want to think that, but yes, I do," Seth said. "She claims to be on birth control but she never takes the pill in front of me anymore like she used to. She always closes the door to the bathroom. I think she might be flushing them instead. I can't know for sure, but she sort of admitted to planning this and waiting with telling me until now where she's five months pregnant. Too late for an abortion."
"That bitch!" Kellie said loudly.
Seth looked at Kellie and for some reason her anger made him smile. He had always liked her. She was ready to fight if it was needed, but there was also a good and warm heart inside her.
"Don't go beat her up. She's pregnant," Seth said.
"I'll wait until she's given birth," Kellie smirked.
"No one beats up anyone," Finn chuckled. "So what's the plan moving forward?"
"Hopefully you'll let me crash here for a while until I figure out something permanent. Once the baby is born I'll have a paternity test done. If it's mine, I'll pay. But I seriously doubt that it is," Seth said.
"You can stay as long as you need," Finn said.
"You need to get laid," Kellie said.
Seth raised his eyebrows. For a second he wondered if she was about to offer herself to him.
"Let's go out for some drinks and find a rebound for you," Kellie said.
"Oh," Seth said. "Well... Sure. Why the hell not?"
Someone knocked on the door. The siblings locked eyes and chuckled.
"I completely forgot about the pizza," Finn said.
"Eat first, drink later. We need some food in us to last the entire night," Kellie patted Seth's knee. "Don't worry, Seth. I'll be your wingman tonight and find you the hottest chick to fuck senseless."
