Chapter 3

SCARLET'S POV

I had just finished brushing my teeth, and now most of the disgusting taste of throw up was gone and rinsed out of my mouth. Ew. I really hate puking. It sucks that I'm going to have to deal with it and all the other fun things that come along with the pregnancy package for nine long months.

I set the toothbrush and toothpaste back in the cupboard, before heading out into the living room where the others were waiting for me. I was just about to turn the corner into the living room, when I heard them talking about me. I decided to wait a bit before walking in, and listen to what they're saying. Hey, if they're talking about me, I might as well find out what they're saying, hm?

"Does Keaton have a widdo cwush on Scawlet?" an unfamiliar voice said in a baby tone. That must be Wesley. I hadn't met him yet, and that voice definitely didn't belong to Drew or Keaton.

Wait, what? Did Wes just say that Keaton has a crush on me? No, he can't. He likes me? He would never like a girl like me. I'm not beautiful, I'm not skinny, and I'm pregnant and my child doesn't have a father or grandma or grandpa. What are the chances of a cute, hot, and funny guy like Keaton ever liking me? Oh yeah, there are none.

At the same time, I felt my heart speed up at the thought of Keaton having feelings for me. Why, you ask? Easy, because I have feelings for him. Yeah, I admitted it. I have feelings for a guy that I just met literally ten minutes ago.

"Nah," Keaton replied back casually, and I felt a rip tear in my heart at his words. I sighed quietly under my breath. I knew it was too good to be true. I don't have a chance with him; not if we were the last two people on this planet. I just wish he would've said yes..

"If you do, it's okay bro. I'm not mad at you. If she likes you too and you wanna make it official, then that's fine with me. Just for now, try to just be friends. She needs us to be there for her right now, to help her through this. Just take things each step at a time," Drew spoke up next, and my jaw dropped at what I had heard.

Drew wouldn't care if Keaton and I were together? He's okay with us having feelings for each other? Well that sure wasn't something that I expected to hear from him. If only Keaton liked me back.

"Thanks, Drew," Keaton said back, and it sounded as if there was a smile on his face. Wait, what? So he does like me? Ugh boys are so confusing sometimes.

"No problem, Keats."

Everything fell silent then, and I decided that then was the time to get back out there before they started to worry. I took a step back so that it'd look more natural walking in there before walking off into the living room where the boys were. As soon as I stepped in there, all three faces snapped up to look at me, and I automatically flushed, feeling slightly embarrassed. "Sorry I took awhile, I got kinda sick back there," I said shyly with a tiny smile curved onto my lips.

"There's no need to be sorry, Scar. You're gonna get sick like that now," Drew reassured me, before motioning to the empty spot next to Keaton on the longest beige sofa. "Wanna sit?"

"Sure," I replied, walking over to the sofa and sitting down next to Keaton. He smiled at me, and I couldn't help but smile a bit back. He was so cute.

Wesley sat on Keaton's other side, while Drew sat next to me on the other couch closest to me. To my surprise, Wesley didn't really look too similar to Keaton at all, for both of them being brothers. Wesley's hair was in a similar do, but was a darker brown in color. His nose was a bit different too, and his eyes were a brown in color instead of Keaton's blue ones. He was still pretty cute though. "So.." I began, unsure of what to say next. There was silence in the room, but it wasn't really awkward.
