Chapter 8
-Doctor's Office-
"Are you okay Starr?" Blair asks her daughter. She can tell Starr is nervous to be at her first doctors appointment since she learned she was pregnant. "Everything will be alright sweetie, trust me." Starr nods her head.
"Starr Manning? The doctor will see you now." Starr and Blair follow the nurse to an empty room. The nurse hands Starr a gown to put on. "The doctor will be here shortly." Blair nods and the nurse leave the two women to talk.
"Mom I'm really scared. How am I going to be able to raise and take care of a baby? I'm only sixteen years old. How am I going to be able to do this alone?" Starr starts to tear as she thinks of Cole and the life she had with him.
"Starr sweetie you won't be doing this alone. You have me and your aunt Dorian and you have Langston. You won't have to do anything by yourself, I promise." Blair gives her daughter a hug. The doctor walks in.
"Hi Starr, I am Dr. O'Brien. I'm going to make sure you and your baby are doing fine." Starr nods her head. "So how far along are you?"
"I'm almost a monthI think." The doctor nods and makes a note.
-La Boulia-
Dorian and Langston are sitting in the Living room anxiously awaiting Starr and Blair's return from the doctors office.
"Langston I am so glad we get to have some time with just the two of us." Langston nods her head.
"Yeah it's great Dorian." Langston smiles at her foster mother. Dorian can tell Langston has a lot on her mind.
"Is there anything you want to talk about?" Langston looks at Dorian and smiles.
"That sounds fun." Just as Langston is about to open up the door bell rings. "I'll get it Dorian." Langston runs to the door. "Alright I'm coming." When she opens the door there is a man standing there with a weird smile on his face.
"Hi can I help you with something?" Langston gives the man the once over.
"I'm here to see Dorian Lord. Is she home?" Langston smiles.
"That depends, who are you and what are you selling?"
"My name is David and I am not selling anything thank you. I just want to see Dorian please you little..."
"Langston who is at the door sweetie?" Dorian walks pass Langston and looks for herself.
"Hi Dorian it's me David Vickers. How have you been?" Dorian slams the door and looks at Langston.
"Who's David Vickers?" Langston asks confused.
"He's the man who left me at the alter a while back. I thought he was gone." Through the door they hear…
"Hey it's really cold out, here can I please come in?"
"Maybe we should let him in Dorian." Dorian nods and opens the door.
"It's about time! I was starting to lose feeling in my legs. Can I come in now?" Without waiting for an answer David walks into the house. "Wow Dorian she's the spitting image of you, attitude and all." David smiles at Langston. Dorian looks at Langston.
"Sweet heart how about you go check on Sam for me I don't want you to witness me killing a man." Langston nods and does as she is told.
"It was nice to meet you." David yells after Langston. "What a sweet girl." Dorian looks at David.
"What are you doing here David?" Dorian crosses her arms across her chest to keep from slapping him.
"Oh is that the welcome I get when I come to see the women I love?" David walks into the living room and pours himself some coffee. "Would you like some my dear?" David says with a smile.
"You have two seconds to tell me the real reason you are here or I am going to throw you out."
"Okay I'm alittle scared of you so here it goes… I was wondering if you could lend me some money so I can pay for a hotel? Unless I am allowed to stay here with you."
Dorian laughs.
"David why on earth would I ever give you my hard earned money or let you stay in my house?" David doesn't answer. "David you have until the count of four to get out of my house before I release the dogs."
"You wouldn't do that." Dorian looks at David and starts to count. "Okay, okay I'm going, just no dogs please." Dorian opens the door and David exits. "Until we meet again my love." Dorian slams the door in his face.
