Waiting
Okay guys, the first real chapter is here, sorry about the long wait but I've been very busy, so, here it is.
In Love
Torrie was talking to Victoria as she gently rocked the pushchair. Abi went up to John.
"This looks pretty cosy."
"Yeah," John replied, "look, it's great to see you here."
"Really?" Abi inquired, "I don't think you need me here, you've got a family now."
"Well, we can still be friends."
"Huh, friends? You think I came to be your friend? I came to continue our relationship. I can see that's not gonna happen, but I thought we were in love. I thought we had something special, but it was obviously just a bit of fun."
"No, it wasn't like that. It was special, but we have to move on."
"I can see you've done that. How long?"
"What?"
"How long have you been with Torrie?"
"Two years."
"Two years? I've only been gone for two years." Abi had started to shout. People turned around to look at them.
"Keep it down will you?" John requested.
"How old is the baby?"
"Six months."
"Aaawwww, it's a good job Booker didn't get me pregnant, or I'd have had one too."
"Do you have to talk about that?"
"About what?"
"You know."
"No I don't."
"Him raping you. That's all in the past."
"Oh, like me you mean?"
"What? No, I mean yes, I mean no, I don't, I'm not sure."
Torrie walked over to them.
"Abi? Is that you?" she asked.
"Yeah."
"Oh my God! It's great to see you!" Torrie exclaimed as she hugged her. "You look great!"
"Thanks, so do you! You can't tell you've had a kid." Torrie beamed. She held out her hand, revealing a diamond encrusted ring.
"Wow! What's that for?" Abi queried.
"It's the engagement ring John bought me!" Abi's heart sank even lower.
"Wow, it's beautiful." She replied, "Have you set a date?"
"Not exactly, but we're hoping to get married in six months!" she answered as she held John's hand.
"I'm so happy for you two, I hope it works out." Abi lied.
"Are you really? After all that's happened?"
"Yeah. That's all in the past, after all, we have to move on."
Torrie smiled but John didn't believe Abi.
"We're in love," Torrie remarked, "we really are!"
This is a really uneventful chapter, it's just Abi finding everything out, I promise it will be better after this chapter so please, keep me motivated and r/r!
