Chapter 4

-Michael-

I love being alone, it is the greatest thing in the whole world; to just be by yourself and not have to answer to anyone. In my life I have spent a lot of time alone, my dad never really carried what I did. My mother ran out on us after I was born, we never talked about her.

Enjoying my peace in quiet was short lived as I hear a tapping on my window. I would have ignored it completely but it's a tap I've heard before. Getting out of bed and going to the window, I open it pushing back the curtains.

"Well, Well what brings you by?" I say to my visitor with a smirk.

"We need to talk, alone."

"Well come on in baby," I pull her up into my bedroom.

She looks around my room with a smile, "so I have a secret, an unbelievable secret."

"I'm always interested in your secrets baby." I lay down on my bed expecting her to follow me, like other times before. I have come to realize I am her dirty little secret.

"It seems like you've made a mistake Guerin." She says with a cold laugh.

I sit up in bed not amused anymore, wondering why I opened my window. "Ok, I'm done playing Isabel, what's going on?"

"So, you know my brother Maxwell right?" She sits down at the end of my bed with her signature hair flip.

"Get to it Isabel, I don't have all night."

"Have a date do we?"

"Not what I would call a date no, but have plans with a firecracker blonde with daddy issue's. Now what's up with Max?" Not that I really care about her brother but maybe she knows something about Liz. That's the real firecracker I want in my bed.

"Well, I was at home and I heard Max and Liz having a fight. I was shocked to say the least that they were fighting, Mr and Miss perfect, so I had to listen in. That's when I heard the biggest piece of juicy gossip ever." Isabel is looking at me, and then it dawns on me. Liz told Max that we slept together, and he is going to TRY to kill me.

"From the look on your face I can tell you already know. How could you be so stupid Michael? You know how Max is about Liz." Her expression turns to pity.

"It was one time Isabel, no big deal. It will not happen again, she won't let it. She hasn't even talked to me since it happened."

"My guess is that she is going to have to talk to you soon." Isabel likes to make everything into a game for her amusement; she really has too much time on her hands.

"Ok Isabel, what's going on? Why would Liz have to talk to me?" My stomach drops down to my feet somehow I know I'm not going to like what she has to say. It dawns on me that Isabel hasn't come to my place in a long time; we haven't hooked up in months. She came to tell me something that is going to turn my life upside down; because she wants to see the show.

"Liz is pregnant." My heart is racing so fast I think it's going to come right of my chest.

"Well, good for her and Max; I'm sure they'll be happy together." It can't be mine we were only have sex twice; the way Evans talks he's had Liz every way possible.

"Yeah, everyone will just assume that Max is the father but I know they have never had sex so that only leaves you."

She was a virgin; she never said anything that night we were together. I have to see Liz; I have to know if this is true. Isabel isn't always the most reliable person on earth.

I know I have to get out of here. I leave my room without as much of a word to Isabel. I look back at her before I leave the trailer; her face is filled with pure enjoyment.

That's when I know that I may have been the first person to hear the news, but I know that I won't be the last.

I just know that I have to get to Liz as fast as possible.
