Chapter 17-Erien's Kiss
Song used: Perfection Situation By Weezer
Let's just say that my life is ruined. Scorpius has yet to tell Dad of his recent discovery. Due to this, Al has rarely spoken a word to me and whenever we do happen to run into eachother in the corridors, he turns and sort of runs in the opposite direction. I have been feeling really crappy lately as the baby seems to be kicking more and more these days so, I have been in quite a foul mood. I haven't even been able to hang out with Jaden who is always spending his time with Sam now. Norah and Cam are spending more time together in preparation for the baby's arrival next month.
And Kiley is still with Bitch-face. That leaves me with noone. I am alone. My brother hasn't looked at me right since Al's revelation and now they're not even friends anymore. It has to be killing their Quidditch practice sessions. It's also probably making it difficult for Blaire Zabini and Erien Flint to choose between them. So I decided to talk to the Blaire and Erien in the hopes that they would give me an update on the Al/Scorp situation.
They were sitting in the Slytherin Common room when I showed up. "Hey Blaire, hey Erien" I said, surprising them. Blaire was a handsome guy with sharp features, tan skin, and wavy black hair.
"What are you doing in here?" Blaire asked, looking up from his copy of the Daily Prophet.
"I wanted to know how Al and Scorp are doing" I said, as Erien's gaze was suddenly on the well defined baby bump. It hadn't occurred to me that Al and Scorp didn't tell their mates. Fuck.
"Scorp and Al won't tell us why they've stopped speaking, are you pregnant?" Erien said, all at once.
"Uh yep" I reply, as Blaire too looks at my bulging stomach. Great, now everyone's going to find out.
"I didn't know little Malfoy would be sexually active so early in life" Blaire says, sniggering. I wanted to deck him right in the face.
"Oh sod off Blaire. Come on Alli, let's go for a walk" Erien says, taking my hand and leading me away. Somehow I did not feel relieved. I remember when I used to actually have a crush on him. But that changed the day "the kiss" happened. "So what's going on? You haven't spoken to me since we danced on Valentine's day" he said, as we walked into an unused classroom.
"Well, I haven't really been talking to a lot of people and now I'm not on the Quidditch team anymore. So, life pretty much sucks" I say, as I sit on one of the dusty old chairs. Hardwood is not so good for my already aching back.
"But you've seriously been avoiding me. Only, I've seen you off with Al sometimes. What's the arrangement between you two?" he asked, making my head snap up.
"There's no arrangement. Al and I are merely friends. He's been very helpful in my time of need but, I guess he's avoiding me to avoid my brother. I have no idea what's going on or why they are no longer speaking" I replied a little too obviously.
"Now Allisha, I may be a bloke but…I'm not stupid. I saw Al follow you into the bathroom that night at the Soiree. I know he'd been crushing on you since before the beginning of the school year. He told me himself. He'd wanted you all along but was afraid of what your brother would think and that you didn't share his feelings. I also know that the second your lips touched his, you felt something. And, I know that it's his baby growing inside of your beautiful body" he said all of this in a very sensual and slow voice. It was starting to make me nervous. I was also in a great deal of shock. Everything he said was true. I really underestimated the pretty boy.
I didn't know what to say to all of that. He was right and yet, I had no rebuttal. "Okay, then why take me out for a walk if you knew all of that?" I asked, standing up. I really do wish I were taller.
"I just wanted to hear you tell me that I was right" he said, smirking his trademark "Flint" smirk.
"Jerk" I say, turning my back to him.
"Wait Alli. Don't be like that. I'm sorry. I'm just trying to well…I'm trying to tell you something" he says, looking a little uncomfortable.
"What? What are you trying to tell me?" I asked, starting to feel very agitated.
"That I still like you Alli. I've liked you since December. Like Al, I was also afraid of what your brother would think. Especially after he warned us to stay away" he said, making me stutter. Oh God, not again. This just isn't my year. Maybe he's just trying to make me feel better. I should just tell him off.
I think I'm going to go completely mental. As if that hasn't happened already. Now I find myself trying to resist Erien's advances. I don't even know why he's hitting on me in the first place. I'm freakin' pregnant! "Erien you have to be joking" I said, looking up sternly. "Please tell me you are joking" I squeaked, as he moved closer.
"Nope, no joke" he said, kissing me softly. At this point, a violent shiver shook through my body. I wanted to push him off but, his lips were so strong. He ran his fingers through my hair and down my face and neck. Now being pregnant kind of leaves you feeling seriously randy. I'm telling you. So I what else could I do? A bloke hadn't touched me like that since before I got pregnant. He kissed my neck as his fingers moved across my shoulders and down my arms.
I came to my senses as soon as he stopped kissing me. "Why did you do that?" I asked, backing up.
"I wanted to Alli. I've wanted to for a long time and I don't regret it. You taste sweet" he said, walking out of the room. All I could do was stare at his back as he disappeared into the corridor.
"Bollocks"
A/N: Okay, so I know that the chapter was a little short. It was actually kind of a filler and a special gift for taking too long to update the last chapter. This is dedicated to everyone who are still reading and reviewing. Especially to firefairydog91(I hope I got it right) and Godrico Gryffindor. Thanks you two!!
