Infinate Stand

Chapter 3

I woke up the next morning and ran to the bathroom, just like i have been doing for the past week, this morning sickness really is a pain in the arse!

I wash up and go downstairs to get breakfast, when i get down, Rebecca is sitting at the kitchen table with Daniel. "Morning" i walk in to the kitchen rubbing my eyes, i sit down next to Rebecca.

"Hey" they say in unison. "Do you want a cuppa?" Lexi asks me. "The kettles just boiled!"

"Yes please" i say while tying my hair back out of my face.

"Hey, i heard your going out with Mike tonight" Daniel says to me. Rebecca sets a cup of tea down in front of me and i thank her.I remember that tonight is the night that i need to tell Mike.

"Erm, yeah i am." I say, giving him an awkward smile.

"He likes you, you know" Daniel says and my eyes widen, looking to Rebecca, who is looking to Daniel, just as confused as i am.

"What? He hardly knows me, how does he like me?" I ask and look at him curiously.

"Well, he's kind of liked you since school, he used to see you around school and be like a teenage girl seeing their favorite band for the first time, i'd always tell him to talk to you, but he didn't have the guts"

"Wow" i say, overwhelmed by this revelation.

"Yeah, he finally grew a pair of balls last night and decided to phone you, so i gave him your house number." He say's, finishing off his cup of coffee and standing up to put his jacket on. "Well, better get going" he says and Rebecca stands up to say goodbye.

He give's her a quick kiss on the lips. "See ya later babe, yeah?" He says and she nods.

"Love you" he says and she returns it.

I get up and wash the cups that were used for tea and coffee and put them away.

"So, you ready for tonight?" Rebecca asks when she comes back into the kitchen.

"No" i say and turn to her. "Im terrified" i say, fear clearly noticible in my eyes.

"Don't be, you will be fine, you heard Daniel, Mike likes you!" She say's trying to reassure me that everything will be okay. Its not quite working though.

The phone begins to ring and i answer it. "Hello" i say into the speaker, i really need to get a new mobile, why did i have to go and drop it down the toilet?!

"Hi sweetheart, how is everything at home?" It was my mum.

"Oh hey mum, erm, yeah everythings fine, Rebecca's here keeping me company" i say, smiling over to Rebecca as she stands there looking at me, at the mention of her name.

"Thats good, listen sweetie, im just ringing to say that i'll be home tomorrow" My mum says into the phone and i begin to panic, i yet have to tell her that im pregnant.

"Oh... How come? I ask, curious on why she's coming home a 2 days early.

"There was a double booking in the hotel that we were meant to be staying at, we could only get it for 2 night's, i should be home around noon tomorrow." She say's, and i purse my lips before i speak again.

"Okay, see you tomorrow Mum."

"Bye love" my mum says and hangs up the phone.

"Was that your Mum" Rebecca asks.

"Yeah, she's coming home tomorrow"

"Oh, that's a good isnt it?" She says to me and i sigh.

"I suppose" i reply.
