Mini:
"There's no need to be harsh Mins. This isn't going to be easier on me too, you know." Alo picked his duffle bag off of the floor.
"Right" I said rolling my eyes "Because your the one who has to push a watermelon out of your vagina." I sat down on my bed, placing my head in my hands.
"There is no need to get angry at me Mins, just let me help you." Alo placed his arms around my shoulders, I shrugged him off.
"I don't need your help Alo."
...
"Why are you finding it so hard to accept that people want to help you Mini?" Franky was staring at me as she shook her head.
"Maybe because i've been fending for myself for so long Franks, things just don't change." I wasn't looking at her, but i could feel her roll her eyes. We both knew i was being ridiculous.
"Anyway what's it like having Alo living with you?" She was trying to stop the woe is me conversation.
"Hes been, well surprisingly great actually. Fetches me breakfast and everything."
"So he's turned into a puppy dog." I nodded with a smile. "No shagging?" I threw a pillow at her.
"Oh God no. Do you think its possible to get pregnant when you are already pregnant." Franky let out a low laugh as she shook her head.
"No mini. I guess your baby brain has already started."
"What you all talking about?" Nic sat down on the couch in the common room, next to Franky.
"Nothing." We said in unison.
"Right then." Nic seemed disinterested as his kissed Franky on the cheek. They had hooked up a few days ago, it was weird at first given Nic was my first. But Franky deserved to be happy, well as happy as she could be I guess. "Theres a party on this friday, did you want to go?" He was talking to Franky.
"I can't, sorry. Mini and I have plans." Franky gave me a quick glance and a smile. Not good for the baby. "But i'll come around after?" Nic nodded. The bell rang, and like sheep we followed the crowd to our classes. Alo saved me a seat in english, which I thanked him for.
"Did you tell anyone?" He asked softly as he leaned across my table.
"No farm-boy! And lets keep it that way." Alo put his hands up as a defense. I watched the door, but as Liv walked in I averted my gaze. Things have been weird every since my dads work party. Class started and we went about our business.
...
"What is this?" Liv was holding my pink bear in front of my face, a smirk displayed on her face.
"Its Mr. Wrinkles." I said with a smile. "Look live, truce?" I scratched my head, anxiously awaiting her response. She nodded, giving me a hug.
"No more lies Mins, i can't take it. Not right now." I nodded slowly, bracing myself.
"Can you just fucking tell her already." Franky's voice called from behind me. I took a deep breath.
"I've been sleeping with Alo and..." I started, not looking at her.
"Fuck Mins. Is that why you have been ignoring me? For how long?"
"A couple of months." My voice was flat as I spoke.
"Jesus!" Liv called out. "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I'm pregnant." I could feel the tears well up in my eyes, as Franky took my hand. Astonishingly Liv through her arms around me.
"I'm so sorry Mini." She whispered into my ear. "I didn't know. And i've been such an ass."
"No its fine Liv. I've kept you at a distance. But I love you bitch, so much." The tears were flowing now, and we were getting weird looks from the crowd of people in the hallway. But i didn't care. Things were going to be alright now.
ALO:
"So is everything alright over at Minis?" Rich sounded concerned as he sat down next to me in the library.
"Its a bit tough man actually. She's so hot and cold. And the freaking hormones, Jesus!" I ran my hands through my hair, making it stand on end.
"Your doing an honorable thing man, though. Not many guys would stick around."
"Stick around for what?" Nic crashed down on the seat opposite us, taking a bite of his apple.
"Stick around to the end of a party." Rich quickly added.
"Too ahh...help clean up" I squinted my eyes as I answered, rather questionably. Thankfully Nic's thoughts were preoccupied with Franky's ass.
"Hey guys." She said, before sitting on the arm rest of Nics seat.
"Hey" Rich and I said in unison. Franky and Nic embraced in a snog fest. The final bell rang and we all started to head home.
...
"Did you get the answer to question five?" Mini asked as she flipped a page in her text book. I looked down at my own answers.
"Yeah. its 27." Mini smiled.
"Yay! I think i'm finally getting a hold of this algebra." Her smile soon dropped. "Is everything ok farm boy?" I ran a hand through my hair.
"Yeah Mins, everything's super."
"Are you sure, because you look a bit distressed?" She rose from her chair, opposite me and sat down in the chair next to me taking my hand. I removed mine.
"How come you haven't asked me to go to the ultrasound with you?" I wasn't looking at her, and on some level i knew i was being pathetic.
"What are you talking about?" She tried to sound oblivious, but it wasn't working.
"On the fridge Mins, the calendar."
"Oh" it must have clicked. "Franks said she would take me. I just assumed you didn't want to go."
"Why on earth wouldn't I want to go Mins?" I was getting angry now. "This is my baby too!" I placed a hand on her stomach. To my surprise her voice was rather soft.
"I know it is Alo." She ran her hand through my hair. "Will you come?" She asked softly as she leaned her head closer to mine. I nodded.
MINI:
Was I sure what I was doing? No. Maybe it was the hormones, because I had been awfully horny these past few days. But as Alo nodded i couldn't help but harshly press my lips against his. In one quick motion Alo had cleared the table of all our text books, placing me atop the table. I wrapped my legs around his waist drawing him closer, as he pulled my shirt over my head.
"We should probably stop." He said through ragged breaths against my throat.
"Probably."
