The Covenant: Hidden Secrets
Ch. 4: Choices, choices, and more choices.
"Did you find him?" I asked Carson through the phone.
"Yes." She said keeping it short with me so I huffed.
"Can we please not fight? I just wanna be happy. I wanna be the care free Ally I was two years ago before all this drama." I told her and all I got was silence.
"I know. Me too." She agreed. "Everything was fine before you slept with Caleb… Too bad you can't take that back."
"I wish I could." I started crying. "Then I remember. If it hadn't happened I wouldn't have learned how much I loved Tyler. It kills me because I caused this big rift between all of us. It still hasn't healed and it's my entire fault!" I cried.
"I'm sorry for what I said." Carson breathed into the phone.
"Why? It was true." I told her while running my fingers through my blond hair. "I'm thinking about dying my hair brown again."
"No. If I could make my eyes black every time I used instead of white I would." She told me and I just shrugged.
"You don't have a constant reminder everyday of you life of that week in hell. One week, and it changed everything." I said wiping the tears from my face and sniffling.
"Fuck. Where are you?" She asked.
"My house. In my room… well bathroom." I finally stopped crying.
"Are you still going to dinner with Murphy?" She asked and I shrugged.
"I'm thinking about it… What are you doing tonight?" I asked curious if she had better plans.
"Everyone's going to Nicky's. Wanna come?" She asked and I took a deep breath.
"Even Ty?" I asked getting nervous.
"Yeah. You don't have to if you don't want to." She said and then I remember what I heard in the kitchen this morning.
"No, I'll go. Do you know about Caleb and Sarah? I asked wondering if this would all be okay.
"What about them?" She asked sounding concerned.
"I'm not trying to get him in-"
"Just tell me!" She kinda screamed.
"Sarah told Caleb she was pregnant." I said slowing not wanting to hurt her.
"What?" She asked I could hear the panic in her voice. "No, no way in hell!" She screamed. "I would rather have you knocked up with his baby. Not that that would make things any easier." We bother started laughing before she got serious again.
"You okay?" I asked concerned. I could practically hear her shaking her head.
"Yeah. Fine. I'm gonna go see you tonight." She hung up before I could even respond back.
"Do I invite Murphy or cancel on him?" I thought out loud to know one in particular. I just started typing on my phone.
"It says it's positive." Caleb said looking down at the test.
"Yeah." Sarah told him nodding. "I told you I'm pregnant."
"Is it mine?" Caleb asked and Sarah huffed.
"Of course. Who else's baby would I be carrying?" She asked while pacing the small bathroom fall back and forth.
"We did break up for two weeks last month." Caleb told her throwing the test into the trash. Sarah stopped dead in her tracks and pointed her finger at him.
"You're the one who slept around with anything with two sets of lips!" She snapped back making Caleb throw his hands up in surrendor as he sat on the side of the tub. Sarah started walking again as a thousand thoughts ran through her head.
"I slept with two other girls." He defended himself. "I told you that I didn't wanna know if anything happened between you and anyone else." He now started the think. Maybe she was with someone. Maybe it's not his baby and he still has a shot.
"What are we gonna do?" Sarah asked falling to her knees in a fit of tears.
"We're gonna have my baby." Caleb told her while making his way to Sarah. He slowly rubbed her back and tried to sooth her.
"Okay." She finally let out in a breathy huff.
"I missed this." Carson whispered into Reid's ear. He was straddling her on his bed as he kissed her neck trailing little kisses down her making her let out a small moan.
"Me too." He said quickly letting the words be felt on her skin. "You're so beautiful." Carson was getting impatient and suddenly flipped them so she was on top.
"You know I always like being in control." She told me before taking off her shirt and making a gesture for him to take his off. He quickly did so before they both attacked each other.
"I love you." He said as she started trailing kissed down his stomach. She slowly started undoing his belt making his anticipation and need grow more and more. "Stop teasing me!" He snapped raising his head up off the bed. Carson just smiled a wicked smile and moved even slower earning a huff from Reid as his head hit the pillow.
Carson pulled them off quickly before reaching her hand into his boxers and finding what she'd been waiting for. While stroking the soft but hard skin. She started going faster before licking the head and twirling her head around it. She then placed it in her mouth as far as it would go before touching the back of her throat. She did that over and over again until Reid couldn't take it anymore.
"Fuck this." He said while pulling her up to the bed and undoing her pants. Carson was in a fit of laughter as this contained. That was until he had her naked and started kissing her nipples. That's when things got serious and she started whimpering into his touch. Even more so when he started playing with her inner thighs making her beg for his touch.
"Stop playing." Carson said laughing about it knowing he was paying her back for earlier.
"I'd ask you to tell me what you want but your body already is." He said while before playing with her inner folds feeling knowing how good he was making it feel because she was getting wetter and wetter he finally slipped his index finger while using his thump to work on her clit all while still kissing her.
"Fuck." Carson squealed into his mouth while coming. "Reid." She said shuddering into his hand and riding out her organism.
"You ready for what's next?" He asked slowly pulling his fingers out of her. She just nodded her head while lust filled eyes.
As I pulled into the driveway I knew it was a mistake. I looked up at the big house I'd spent so much time in over my whole childhood. There was a single car in the drive way. A 2006 silver ford mustang. I shook my head and closed my eyes trying to muster up the strength to walk in. I hurried up and shut off the car taking the keys out of the ignition before I could stop myself. I got out of the car and hurried to the front door not even bothering knocking or ringing the doorbell. The house was so big it was rarely heard anywhere but the living room and kitchen.
"Hello?" I said coming in and not seeing a trace of anyone in sight. Sighing loudly I made my way through the living room so I could get to the stairs more quickly to get this over with. Making my way up the stairs I quickly flashed back to over ten big memories that happened on these very stairs. I was starting to feel old. I mean I was almost 18. I was thinking so hard I missed a step and slipped. "Shit." I said under my breath thinking myself for wearing tennis shoes instead of hells for this expedition.
"What are you doing here?" Sarah asked coming out of nowhere.
"Um is Caleb here?" I asked while climbing the rest of the stairs.
"Yes. What are you doing here?" She asked again and I huffed.
"I need to talk to Caleb." I told her making it clear I wasn't interested in her at all.
"Please don't tell me you're pregnant too?" She snapped and I laughed.
"Bitch, I haven't had sex in 3 ½ months. If I was pregnant, it would be Tyler's." I told her getting sassy and impatient. "Is he in his room?"
"Yes." She told while standing with her hands on her hips looking down at her.
"Thanks." I said while walking past her to the bedroom. I knocked briefly before going in. The bathroom door came opened and he looked shocked to see me.
"Can we talk?" I asked and he looked at something behind me and I turned and saw Sarah. "Alone."
"Can you give us a minute?" Caleb asked looking at Sarah.
"About what?" She asked with her hands still firmly planted on her hips.
"It's private." I told her while fidgeting with my hands.
"I'll kick your ass if you touch him." She said before walking away and I just rolled my eyes. I quickly went and shut the door and turned around slowly giving Caleb a weak wave.
"Hey." I said and he waved back cracking a smile.
"Hey." He said before sitting down on his bed. He gestured to the empty spot next to him. I shook my head no.
"We've have a bad history with that bed." I said while pacing the room.
"I thought it was pretty good." He joked and I blushed before covering my face with my hands. "You're so cute when you blush." He said smiling and I shook my head no.
"No. Stop with the sweet talk. You've got a baby mama now." I said before getting serious and sighing. "Besides I just came here to drop this off." I walked towards him and took off the ring.
"You wore it?" He asked and I nodded.
"Basically every time Tyler and I broke up." I told him being honest. "It made me safe… or wanted or some shit." I said sighing. "So why wouldn't we of worked out?" I asked wanting to know what he meant on the phone.
"Because you never even gave us a chance." He said looking at the floor. "You had a choice, you didn't choose me."
"He almost died." I whispered getting frustrated.
"But he didn't. I told you I wanted you and you still choose him over me." He said no getting angry.
"It doesn't matter now anyways." I shrugged. "You've got a baby on the way and I've got college."
"She's not pregnant." He told me quietly looking at the floor with a hurt expression on his face.
"How do you know?" I asked sitting next to him on the bed.
"She does this thing when she's lying where she brings up my mistakes." He said shrugging. "After the doctors appointment tomorrow I'm dumping her ass."
"What are you gonna do after that?" I asked and he smiled.
"Hopefully you." He smirked at me and I smiled knowing I basically asked for that one.
"You." I said shaking my head. "So funny." I wiggled my finger in his face.
"You know Ally I really have missed that tight p-" I stopped him with a kiss.
"I'm such a whore." I said to myself while looking away from him not knowing what he was gonna say.
"No you're not." He said bringing my face to look at his. His deep chocolate eyes looked at me seriously while he spoke.
"You've slept with two guys. Two guys in four years of high school. That's impressive." I just smiled softly.
"Not knowing who you want to be with. Whore move. One I've made too many times to count." I just shook my head hoping new thoughts would form.
"Be with me." He said softly. "Give us the shot you didn't two years ago." He slipped the ring back on my finger.
"I-" Then I was cut off before I could even get a word in.
"I need your help." Sarah said coming over the Caleb.
"Thanks for the help." I told Caleb fake smiling. "See you guys here tomorrow." With that I walked out of the house and climbed into the car before dialing my best friend.
"I need you." I told her as the tears started the fall.
"Where are you?" She asked while getting out bed with Reid.
