The Covenant: Hidden Secrets
Ch. 5. Overacting.
"Where are you?" She asked again screaming it at me this time.
"Your house. Why'd I go talk to him?" I asked sobbing into my steering wheel.
"Talk to who honey? Why are you at my house?" Carson asked while getting dressed making Reid do the same.
"Caleb." I cried. "I don't know what to do!" I screamed letting out my frustration as the tears flowed down my face.
"Stay there." She told me and I shook my head.
"No." I told her while starting my car. "I'm going home it's only 10 minutes away."
"You're crying. I don't want you to wreck." She said with real concern in her voice. "It's almost dark too. I'm worried. Let me come too you."
"Just meet me at my house. Are we still going to Nikki's?" I asked sniffling up my tears.
"I am. You don't have to if you're not up to it." She said while gathering up all of her stuff. "Reid and I will be there in 20 minutes. Do you need anything?"
"Ice cream cookie dough." Reid shouted and I laughed smiling.
"Yes, please." I told them. "I'm gonna get off here so I can drive bye."
"I'm gonna kill my brother!" Carson screamed throwing her phone and looking for her shoes. "That son of a bitch is confusing her."
"How?" Reid asked wondering what was really going on.
"I don't know, but it's Ally and Caleb. He probably wants in her pants again." Carson told him while getting frustrated with her shoes.
"So did she want the ice cream?" Reid asked with a smile. "Because I want some ice cream." Carson just laughed at her boyfriend being such a pig.
"Should we take this too?" She asked raising a bottle of vodka.
"I think yes!" Reid said smiling. "This is my first girl's night." He clapped and Carson started shaking her head.
"Who are you and what have you done with my boyfriend?" She asked joking around before kissing him on the lips. "Thanks for being so good to me and my crazy best friend."
"Anything for you." He said while cupping her face in his hands before kissing her. "Now let's go get ice cream. I've got a craving."
"Hey, you're home. Where have you been?" Kate asked seeing me come in but stopped when she saw my red eyes. "You okay?"
"Yeah. I just ran over a squirrel on my way home. It scared the shit out of me." I lied before looking down at my nephew. "Hey little man." I said while picking him up.
"Shit." He repeated me and I shook my head no and smacked his lips lighting.
"No. You don't say that." He then deiced he wanted to cry about it and wanted his mommy. I passed him over to Kate and made my way to my room.
I made my way to my bathroom and hit the floor crying. The cold floor was always a strange comfort to me but I pulled myself up and started undressing for a hot shower. It was only 4 o' clock and I just wanted to go to sleep. My choices; I could take Tyler back and have him possibly cheat on me again or I could give Murphy a shot or actually try a relationship out with Caleb.
"Ally!" I woke up chocking on water and freezing.
"What happened?" I asked and Carson started covering my naked body in a towel.
"Did you black out?" She asked and I shrugged.
"I was… I. I don't remember." I said freaking out. "I was standing in the shower then you were yelling at me."
"Did you have another nightmare thing maybe?" Reid asked and I shook my head no.
"I always remembered those. This was like I just blacked out. Not like my fainting because those I always felt." I was confused and I just shivered. "Can you hand me my robe?" Pogue handed it to me and gave me a concerning look.
"How'd you know?" He asked Carson who just shrugged.
"I just felt something was wrong." She said and I gave her my best concerned look.
"She ran in here as soon as I parked the car." Reid said and I just hugged my arms tighter to my body.
"You guys really think something is happening again?" Pogue asked getting worried. "I've got a kid now I can't die."
"Something's happening to me Pogue." I cried and he came over and wrapped his arms around me and hug.
"I know. I just I don't want anything bad happening. I have too much to loose." He said into my ear as if we were telling each other secrets. "Get ready you guys we're all meeting at 6." He told us while leaving the room.
"You still up for it?" Reid asked me with a genuine concerned look.
"Yeah. FUCK!" I stomped out of the bathroom to my purse and pulled out my phone and dialed Murphy.
"Yeah!" Mark said answering the phone and I huffed.
"Is Murphy their?" I asked getting impatient.
"It's your damn bird!" Mark yelled so loud I had to remove the phone from my ear.
"Sorry about that he's fucking buckled as shit!" Murphy laughed loudly into the phone and I shook my head not wanting to deal with this.
"Um so about to tonight-"
"You're cancelling on me aren't you?" He asked suddenly getting serious and I just nodded.
"I don't know what to do Murph." I said sighing loudly. "Like last night I thought I did… But I don't."
"Just promise me you won't go back to him right away." He asked making me laugh lightly.
"Anything for you." I said earning a small chuckle from him.
"Fuck. I've gotta go Mark and my Da are about to start off. Call me later?" He asked and I just said yes quickly before hanging up.
"We need to do something about all this." I said while slipping the robe on over the towel before turning around and dropping the towel and tying the robe around myself.
"What can we actually do?" Reid asked looking at Carson and I who just shrugged.
"We can try to prevent any of us from dying." I told him looking at Carson knowing she was thinking of her dad.
"But how?" Reid asked again and I just shrugged while running my fingers though my wet hair. I used to make it dry and curly so I didn't have to do it. I got an eye roll from Carson and I just flipped her off.
"We can um just have a little meeting the six of us tonight." I said after that light bulb went off in my bed.
"Sounds good to me." Carson said while sitting down on my bed and pulling a bottle of vodka from her bag. "Want?" she asked and I smiled.
"Yes and where's the ice cream?" I pointed a finger at Reid knowing he would know.
"Fridge downstairs." He said putting his hands up. "I'm gonna find Pogue so you can get dressed." He said while leaving me and Carson alone.
"What'd my brother do?" Carson asked while walking over to me and handing me the bottle.
"He's just playing with my head to get back into my pants." I told her while putting my hand in her face so she would see the ring.
"Are you serious?" She asked grabbing my finger and almost pulling it out of place.
"Ow! It's still attached!" I told her while snatching it back.
"What'd he say when he gave it to you?" She asked getting serious.
"This time or the first time?" I asked quietly. She looked at me with a mean, hurt, confused look on her face. Like she couldn't decide what to do or say. She then placed her hands on her hips before huffing.
"What do you mean this time or the first time?
"The first time he said "because Carson is my sister and I'm not in love with her" this time he said "Be with me, give me the shot you didn't two years ago." I said before taking a huge drink of the clear liquid in the bottle.
"What'd you say?" She asked leaning on the desk behind her.
"Both I was cut off. He kissed me the first time and I ran away and then Sarah walked in tonight." I said shaking my head of the memories. "Everything is complicated… I think I might give him a shot."
"You're fucking crazy!" Carson shouted before seeing the very sad look on my face. "Just please don't make any decisions tonight. Please?"
"Yeah. I'll try. Now let's get ready!" I told her while slipping out of my robe and into my closet quickly to get dressed.
"Boom!" Jaxson would say every time he would pound it with Reid.
"Why is your kid so cool?" Reid asked Pogue as they sat downstairs.
"Because he's my kid." Pogue said while picking him up.
"Food!" Jaxson screamed while squirming in Pogues arms.
"We'll he's very demanding isn't he." Reid joked as they walked to the kitchen.
"He's hungry, who's happy when they're hungry?" Kate asked coming out of nowhere.
"Juice or Milk?" Kate asked Jaxson as Pogue put him in his highchair.
"Juice." Jaxson screamed at her.
"Does he always do that?" Reid asked looking at the kid all cock eyes and catawampus.
"He's in a screaming phase because of Aunt Ally." Kate said in a not so nice tone.
"Oh." Reid said looking at the floor knowing he hit a nerve.
"She gets excited when she's with him." Pogue defended his little sister.
"I know. It's just does she have to be so immature and scream with him?" Kate asked while cutting up the hotdogs on the Cars plate in front of her.
"Are you sure this doesn't have to deal with the phone call you just got from Sarah?" Pogue asked knowing all the history was bound to get to everyone one of these days.
"Caleb broke up with her on the day Ally just drops by. Coincidence?" She kinda screamed while putting the plate and cup on his highchair.
"Probably because Ally called Carson crying after talking to him." Reid piped in not wanting the drama to get the best of everyone.
"Oh." Kate said before leaving the room.
"Do girls always have to overreact?" Pogue asked while ruffling Jaxsons hair while he tried getting pogue to eat a hotdog.
"Who says we do that?" I asked coming around the corner.
"I do!" My brother chimed in quickly and I just stuck my tongue out at him. Jaxson coppied me and ended up spitting a hot dog out. We all laughed at him. "You look good tonight sis."
"Thank you." I said while twirling around knowing the last couple of weeks I hadn't put much effort into anything.
"Let's bounce bitches!" Carson screamed coming into the kitchen getting daggers from Pogue.
"The kid!" He said using his head to say watch your langue.
"Is mom watching him?" I asked walking over to my nephew and kissing him on his head.
"Sissy!" He screamed and I just stuck my tongue out at him.
"Sissy?" Reid asked and I shrugged.
"It's what he came up with so I'm okay with it." I said making sure Reid got the point.
"Um no I'm gonna stay with him." Kate said while walking into the kitchen with Sarah. Her eyes were all red and puffy and I resisted the urge to ask her what was wrong.
"You okay?" Carson asked seeing her eyes.
"No." Sarah sniffled. "Your brother broke up with me." She then busted into tears.
"I thought you were with child?" Carson asked confused before giving me a look and I just raised my eyebrows.
"We moved the doctors appoint to today so we wouldn't have to get up early tomorrow." She started crying again and had to stop. "They say I was never pregnant and the test was a false negative." She started crying again while Kate held her up and rubbed her back. "He broke up with me saying it was too close of a call for him. He broke up with me after two years, because I thought I was pregnant."
"Well we've gotta get going." Reid said bringing all of us out of our daze of staring at the crazy crying not pregnant lady in my kitchen.
"Okay. Have fun." Kate said while sitting down at the table with a still crying Sarah. I took one last look at her before leaving the kitchen behind everyone.
"Tyler's here." Reid said seeing the hummer pull up outside as he opened the door.
"Why?" I asked not really wanting to see him yet.
"Why does it matter?" Reid asked getting snippy.
"Because I don't wanna see him yet." I said looking at him in the hummer.
"Listen here little twig! You're gonna get in that hummer and you're gonna pretend to be happy. You'll be nice to my best friend or I'll shove that ice cream that's in the freezer down your throat so you'll choke and die on it." He said looking at me with a straight face. I just gulped down the lump in my throat and nodded.
"K." I said while walking out of the house.
"What the fuck was that?" Carson asked hitting Reid.
"Nothing." Reid smiled while walking to the passenger seat of the hummer.
"This should be fun." Pogue laughed while walking out behind Carson and over to his bike and grabbing his helmet and heading to Nicky's.
