"What are you doing you?" Martin wiped away the tears but didn't turn around. It can't be her, he thought. I must be dreaming. Please tell me I'm dreaming!
"I came down to see my parents and I thought I'd stop by at the Camden's to see you but I got side tracked and then I herd your voice." She said.
"What about Ruthie?" Martin asked, still facing his back to her. "What were you gonna do if you saw Ruthie?" he put on a high voice. " 'Oh hi Ruthie, I'm just her to see Martin and talk to him about our baby' !" He was yelling now.
"Martin, I didn't mean to show up unexpectedly, but I really wanted to see you again."
Martin could hear her walking towards him. The leaves crunching with every step she takes. "Look, you being her isn't helping okay?" he was searching for words but his mind went blank. "I-I-I love Ruthie and nothings gonna change."
"Are you sure about that?"
He could feel her getting closer.
"I mean, cheating on her even if you really love her?" She took a step closer. "You seemed pretty damn over her and into mwah that night."
By now, she was right behind him. He felt a shiver go down his spine as she wrapped his arm around him.
"Martin…" She said but soon that voice changed into someone else. "Martin. Martin? Martin!"
He snapped out of it. He could feel all eyes on him. He looked at the ground to a million pieces of glass shattered on the floor near the draw. He felt an arm around him but instead of getting an icy cold shiver down his spine, he got a warm feeling in his body. It was Ruthie. He turned to her. "I-I need some air," He quickly walked out of the room before anyone could stop him.
Not far behind, Ruthie followed him. Once they both were outback, she spoke up. "Babe." She took hold of his hand. "What's going on?"
(N/A: Bold is the bad side and italics is the good side, if you get my drift.)
Martin paused and looked at her. You've already lied to her, one more won't hurt. A voice inside his head said but another voice spoke up. A softer, kinder voice, whereas the other was a deep, sly voice. Just tell her the truth. She's gonna going to find out sooner or later.
Martin didn't know what to do. So he went with his instincts. "Ruthie, I have something to tell you."
She squeezed his hand but didn't say anything, so he continued.
"Something happened during the summer. Something I regret." He looked at the ground; he felt her grip loosen a bit. "There was this, this party."
Flashback
Martin walked into a dorm room, the smell of alcohol all around him. He checked his phone to see if he had the right dorm room number. Room 610. It was right, but where Simon? He walked into the nearest room and nearly knocked someone over.
"Oh crap, I'm so sorry." He apologized but stopped as he saw who it was.
"Martin. Hey!" She gave him a hug which he returned politely.
"What are you doing her?" He yelled over the music.
"My cousin comes here and I was spending the summer with her to get a feel of what college life is all about." She answered, as the music got louder. "What about you? Before he could answer, she pulled him into a room. Even though the music was pumping through the walls, it was at least a bit quieter. "Much better." She smiled. "As I was saying, what about you? What are you doing here?"
"Same thing as you are." He smiled.
Just then, she stumbled and fell to the ground but Martin caught her. "Whoopsie- doozie," She laughed and held on to Martin.
He could smell alcohol all over her. "Have you been drinking?"
"Just one or two bottles." She said, still holding onto him. She smiled at him and next thing you know, she pressed her lips against him.
Martin pushed her away. "What are you doing!" He wiped his lips. He could taste alcohol. "Im with Ruthie now."
"Oh c'mon," She said slyly and walked up to him and traced her finger around on his chest. "What she doesn't know won't hurt her." She pushed him slowly towards the bed. He hesitated but didn't do anything. "I know you want me. I can give you want she hasn't given up yet."
Meanwhile
Simon searched all over the dorm for Martin. He took a sip from his bottle but almost choked when he saw Martin in a room with a girl, standing extremely close to each other for a guy who's already taken. But before he could move, the door closed.
End flashback
Ruthie was nearly in tears as she stared at him. Her bottom lip quivered a bit but that wasn't all.
"A-a-and the worst part is…" He trailed off and gulped. "…she's pregnant."
Ruthie vision blurred. She didn't say anything. She was too shocked to move nor say a thing.
"Ruthie, im really sorr-"
"Who is she!" She yelled all of a sudden. "Who is she!"
Martin looked at her. His throat was dry. He swallowed.
Is he going to tell her? And if he does, how is Ruthie gonna handle it? But the question that's running through your mind the most is… who's is she?
Cliffhanger! Hahahaha! Well please review and ill try and update soon.
