Chapter Eleven

I stepped into Cole's house as I dropped my bag and felt the world go numb around me. Cassidy ran over to me as she wrapped her arms around me and said, "I'm so sorry." I barely heard her over the buzzing in my ears. She grabbed my hand and picked up my bag as she led me upstairs. I walked up each stair feeling numb and empty with each step I took. She led me to the right and down the hall slowly trying to keep up with me, we turned to the left and she opened the door.

"Here you can stay here for the time being alright?" She said as I gently nodded my head. Cassidy set my stuff down on the bed as she walked out and shut the door. I however slowly walked over to the bed as I sat down I laid back on the bed.

Now I see why he doesn't talk to girls. . .

Zayden's Pov

"She's what?!" I asked Sierra.

Sierra stood infront of me her eyes full of tears, her blue hair tattered and her black tank top looked worn out and her red skinny jeans had a huge hole in her left thigh.

"She's pregnant." Sierra whispered again.  

"I heard you the first time." I said as I sat down in one of the chairs in our pale blue kitchen, Sierra pulled up one of the brown wooden chairs next to me.

"It's Dallas's." she muttered reaching down into a brown paper bag as she pulled out a small brown teddy and handed it to me.  

"Dallas just up and left her?" I gently played with the brown teddy in my hands.  

"Basically, you should go see her." She reached back into the bag as she pulled out some tissue paper and reached for the bear.

"I don't even know where she would be at."

I handed her the teddy as she reached down to grab the bag and stuffed some green sparkly tissue paper nicely in it as she placed the teddy inside it with some sparkly tissue paper placed on the top.

"She's at Cole's."

I looked at her like she knew where that was at.

"You think I know where he lives? He never comes to school." She looked at me and laughed.  

"Why don't you call Dallas or him?" She pulled out her phone as she handed it to me.

I looked down at her black iPhone at the contact info, "Dallas" it read along with the number.

"I'm not calling him." I said as she grabbed her phone back and called him herself.

"Hello?" She said into her phone as she walked out of the room. I walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs to my room, I opened the door to my room and walked over to the nightstand. I opened the drawer and got out my phone as I opened it and called Zara's number.

No answer.

I called it again, still no answer. I sighed as I walked back downstairs and into the kitchen. Sierra was sitting with her back to me as she fixed the present, "He wouldn't tell me where, he said he didn't know but he gave me Cole's number." I walked in and sat down on my chair as I looked at her.

"Cole said you could come and visit he'd pick you up at seven." I looked over at the clock that read 6:30.  

"Why not now?"

She walked over to the drawers and got out some pretty red ribbon and tied a nicely tied bow around the handles.

"He said he had things to do, I dunno why don't you ask him yourself?"
