"What?" Sara replied
"I just spoke to Gil, Nick's got a girlfriend, and her name is Kristy. I guess he met her back home in Texas and then found out she was transferring here. He's with her right now." Catherine replied
Sara stood up, denial coursing through her body, "No, You're wrong. Gil's wrong. They're probably just friends. No"
Sara turned and ran into the house and up the stairs to her room, causing curious glances from other sisters.
Catherine sighed and stood up, following Sara's retreating body into the house.
"Cath, what's wrong?" Allison asked
Catherine didn't answer she just followed Sara up the stairs, with a handful of sisters in tow.
Catherine lightly knocked on their door and instead of waiting for a response she walked in.
"Sara"
Sara looked up from her sitting position on her bed, tears streaming down her face.
"You're wrong, they aren't dating"
Catherine walked into the room and sat down on the bed next to Sara. Jocelyn, Kayla, Allison, Heather, Megan, Brynn, Jessica, Rachel and Amy filed into the room. The girls took seats on the bed, desk and chairs. Since Amy was the last one in the room she shut the door behind them.
"Sara, sweetie, tell us what's wrong?" Megan questioned
Sara looked at the concerned faces of her sisters. She knew that she had to tell them the truth.
"Nick's the father" "Um..Yeah..We kind of already figured that one out" Brynn stated
"What?" Sara stated shocked at her answering and the nods coming from her fellow sisters, "how?"
"Sara, honey, we just put two and two together. Around the time you got pregnant was the time you and Nick were together" Jocelyn stated
"Plus, you did tell me, Joc and Cath that you slept with him. Which by the way, we didn't tell anyone else until now" Kayla responded
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you guys earlier, I just didn't want you to think that I was stupid and that I always do things like this. Sleep with a guy I barely know"
"Sara. We would never think that about you. It was an accident, you getting pregnant. Accidents happen" Allison chimed in
"But, that isn't why we're all up here" Heather stated "What don't you believe Sara?"
Sara looked at Catherine, unwilling to state the news.
"I called Gil earlier today to find out if Nick had moved into the house or not. I figured if he had Sara could give him a call, they could get together and talk about the baby. Anyways as I was talking to Gil he mentioned that Nick has a girlfriend and before y'all say anything he's been with her since the beginning of summer" Catherine stated
"I don't understand. I just don't understand. We talked before he left. We hung out before school ended. I mean it wasn't like a one night stand. I mean it was but it wasn't. We had lunch together and dinner and it was nice and it was perfect" Sara stated, tears streaming down her face "I don't understand"
Catherine put her arms around Sara and let her cry into her shoulder.
"God, he sucks" Megan suddenly blurted out "I could just kill him or beat him up or something"
"Oh yeah I can see it now" Catherine replied "out of no where, Megan jumped Nick and strangled him...and then she just left."
Not seconds after the statement made its way out of Catherine's mouth, the room erupted into laughter.
"No seriously, can't you just see it" Catherine continued "Megan is barely 5 foot 3 inches, weighing in at 115 pounds. Then there's Nick who is about 5 feet 10 inches and weighing in at about 150. That's a battle I wanna see" Catherine finished through her laughter, which caused the girls to laugh even harder.
Eventually the laughter died down in the room and the mood became serious again.
"Sara, I know that you are upset about Nick and his girlfriend, but you should still tell him about the baby" Heather stated. Heather was usually the voice of reason amongst the sisters.
Sara nodded, "Yeah I know. I'm just scared"
"We all know you are sweetie, but you could just have him come to the house and tell him here. I mean we would all be just two seconds away to support you or to beat the crap out of him" Megan replied
"Geez Megan, you my bodyguard now?" Sara asked
Megan smiled, "hell yeah, he's hurting one of my sisters". With that Megan stood up from the bed and walked over to Sara and gave her a big hug. Eventually the other sisters followed. Sara's claustrophobia got the better of her and she insisted the sisters somewhat back away.
"Look, I love you all and I promise I'll talk to him, but right now I'm tired and I know we all have to be up early tomorrow to start getting prepared for Rush, so if y'all don't mind" Sara stated
A chorus of 'no problem' and 'sure' came from the girls and all but Catherine filed out.
"Cath"
"Yeah"
"Can you do me a favor?"
"Sure, what?"
"Do you mind telling the rest of the sisters, I would rather them hear from you than the sorority grapevine"
"Sure sweetie"
"Thanks"
"Get some sleep" Catherine said and left the room, turning off the lights and closing the door behind her. Once outside she was greeted by all the other sisters who lived in the house, but weren't in the room.
"Come on guys, let's go downstairs"
*~*~*
One Week Later
Sara was exhausted. She was pregnant and tired all the time.
Rush had just ended and they had managed to get 25 new pledges. Unfortunately she hadn't been able to talk to Nick yet. She had called him on his cell the other day, but they hadn't been able to meet. She didn't want to tell him over the phone that she was pregnant; she had to do that in person.
She was laying on her bed, attempting to rest, but thoughts of Nick kept going through her brain. She picked up her cell phone and dialed Nick's number. Instead of it ringing it went straight to his voicemail. She left him a brief message asking him to call her when he had a chance too.
Sara sighed. She needed to tell him. She decided to call the house and see if he was there.
"Hello" a male voice came over the phone, it sounded like Gil
"Hello, Gil" Sara replied
"Yeah, who is this?"
"Sara. Sara Sidle. Catherine's roommate"
"Yeah. How you doing Sara?"
"I'm okay and you"
"No complaints. What can I do for you?"
"I was just wondering if Nick was there. I just tried his cell phone and I didn't get an answer"
"Yeah, he's in his room. Want me to get him?"
"No, I'm on my way over, Thanks"
"Your welcome" with that Gil hung up the phone, along with Sara.
She hopped off her bed, put on some flip flops and checked her appearance.
"Not too bad for someone who is four months pregnant" she said aloud and headed out of the room.
She went downstairs and found Catherine in the TV room watching at episode of Charmed with some sisters.
"Hey Cath" Sara called
"Yeah"
"Can you take me to go see Nick?"
The girls all turned and looked at her. Catherine jumped up.
"Yeah, let me go grab my keys" She said and ran up the stairs and was back within moment's shoes on and keys in hand.
They drove to the fraternity house in silence. Sara mentally preparing what she was going to say to Nick and Catherine reciting words of support in her head. Catherine stopped her car in front of the house and they sat there for awhile.
"You know Sara, he's not gonna find out anything as long as you stay in this car"
"Yeah, I know" Sara took a deep breath "Wish me luck"
"Good luck"
Sara began to open the door, but just as she was attempting to get out of the car the front door to the fraternity house opened and out came Nick, with a girl.
Sara immediately stopped, eyes transfixed. Catherine saw this and turned her head to see what was going on. The sight shocked both of them. The girl grabbed Nick around the neck and brought their faces to meet in a passionate kiss. As soon as this happened tears began streaming down Sara's cheeks.
"Get me out of here" she whispered
All Catherine could do was nod, she quickly pulled away from the house, looking in her rearview mirror and saw that Nick didn't even notice them leave. She stopped the car about a mile down the street.
Sara's tears came stronger and her crying became louder. Catherine unbuckled her seatbelt and reached over to her friend.
"Shh..It's okay..It's gonna be okay..shh" Catherine stated, whispering words of comfort into Sara's ear.
"No it's not gonna be okay"
"What do you mean Sara?"
"I mean that I'm tired of this. I thought Nick cared about me, but obviously I was wrong. I wasn't anything more than just a one night stand"
"Sara you can't believe that"
"Yes, I do. Like I said before, we barely saw each other after it happened and he not once called me this summer."
"But Sara he was in Europe"
"Didn't stop him from meeting Kristy and dating her, now did it" Sara said with venom in her voice
"Sara, I understand that you are mad at him but you still need to tell him about the baby"
"No"
"Excuse me" Catherine replied, shocked at Sara's curt response
"I'm not telling him"
"You've got to be kidding me right"
"No I'm not. I'm not telling him and neither are you"
*~*~*
AN: I know, I know y'all HATE Nick right now. Understandable, but I've got this entire story plotted out, I'm not kidding either. I've got the entire plot of the story written out. Trust me when I say that everything will come full circle and work out in the end. Just have faith.
Megan, I hope you enjoyed your 'little part' in the chapter. You rock sweetie.
