Chapter 12- I don't do surprises
When Heath dropped April back to Irene's she went straight into the shower. After ten minutes she got out and sat on her bed in her towell. Suddenly she was reminded of something; she couldn't remember where she put the ultrasound pictures. April started to panic as she searched all over her room for the little print outs. They were no-where to be found. Now April was really starting to worry. What if someone else found them before her? She left her room, still in the towell, and went to search the kitchen and sitting room. April stopped in her tracks when she got there and Bianca was home. Not only was she home but she was holding the little white envelope in one hand and one of the ultrasound print-outs in the other. April froze and Bianca looked at her with a shocked expression on her face.
"Who's are these?" Bianca wondered emotionlessly.
April bit her lip there was no point in lying, the truth would only come out later. She said nothing.
Bianca put the photo and the envelope down on the counter. "Tell me April!" she shouted at her sister for the first time.
April cringed. "They're mine." she said lowly. April had wanted this to happen on her terms and was now completey thrown, there was no rehearsing what she was going to say.
Bianca's eyes widened. "You're pregnant?" April nodded. "You're pregnant and you didn't tell me?" she was hurt and mad.
She noddded. "I was going to tell you, I promise! But I was just waiting for the right moment. It's not exactly something that you can just come out and say in the average conversation." April told her sister.
"So that's where you were today! You lied to me April!" shouted Bianca.
April was shaking with nerves. "I know B and I'm sorry. I just couldn't tell you yet and I didn't know for sure."
"How long have you been "not sure" for?" Bianca wondered coldly.
She couldn't believe how badly her big sister, the person she idolised, was reacting. And the worst part was that she didn't even know who the father was yet. The worst was surely still to come. "About two weeks." April replied timidly.
Bianca's jaw dropped. "You've known you're pregnant for two weeks?"
April nodded. "I was scared Bianca. It was humiliating!"
Her big sister pursed her lips. "Who's the father April?". April said nothing. "Who's the father?" she shouted. "Is it Dex? Xavier?" April shook her head. "Then tell me who it is!" she demanded.
April took a deep breath. She couldn't believe she was actually going to say those words to Bianca. "Before I do, will you promise not to completely lose it?"
That made Bianca even more wary. "I'll try my best." was all she could promise. Depending on what her sister's answer was, there was no guarantee.
She bit her lip. "It's Heath." April said quietly, waiting for her sister to completely lose it.
Bianca frowned. She was sure she misheard her sister. She had to have. "I'm sorry I didn't quite catch that." Bianca said, even more worried this time.
"The father is Heath." April announced loud and clear so that there was no mistake this time.
All the colour drained from the blonde's face and a muderous expression replaced it. "You have got to be kidding me! Heath is not the father, you're lying!"
April shook her head with tears in her eyes. "No, I'm not Bianca. We started having sex the night of the formal. I was a virgin. I'm two months pregnant and Heath is the only one I've slept with."
"I can't believe you could be so stupid April!" Bianca shouted and turned for the door.
April ran after her. "Where are you going?" she demanded.
Bianca completely ignored her sister and stormed off. April wanted to follow her but it was just her luck that she was still in a towell. She darted to her room and started getting dressed as quick as was humanly possible. She knew that Bianca was going looking for Heath.
