Harley

Sitting in a circle , awaiting dawn in this cold room , surrounded by the dull hospital colours . Embodied by the silence that bathed us .

Carmen was sleeping peacefully on the uncomfortable old couch . Josh and Nick were sitting opposite each other but were constantly throwing secret glances at each other , oblivious that all of us were seeing the exchange between them . Something was happening between them , clearly both of them weren't ready to share with us .

Tracey rested her head on Henna's shoulders . The gesture may seem small to everyone but everyone present in this room knew how much this meant to Henna-for Tracey to be with her in public , even if it was the five of us .

Kim had her attention on the screen of her phone , clearly amused by whoever was on the other side of the screen . While I was downing down my third cup of tea in the past hour . Obviously , I had to take breaks or reduce the amount of food I ate , I was not ready to let them in on my pregnancy yet .

It was Nick who broke the silence . " You guys won't believe what I'm about to tell you !" He beamed excitedly , leaning in forward and resting his elbows on the table . Kim immediately stopped typing on her phone and too leaned forward , "Nick , out with it !" She whispered yelled , lack of patience was clearly evident in her voice . " Come on , Nick !" Josh sighed feigning a look of annoyance . Something was definitely happening between the two handsome fellas . With a dramatic eye roll , he opened his mouth to speak but nothing came out .

" Nicholas !" everyone scolded , he flashed us a sheepish grin . " So it turns out that our very own Dr. Dooecha is playing for the other team ," he whispered . Huh ? That was everyone's reactions . Josh eyed Nick , clearly bereft . Kim had her mouth agape . Tracey lifted her head from Henna's shoulder . Henna had a stoic expression . To say I was bewildered was an understatement . " Anyways , it was after my rounds and I was heading to Harley's office . You all know that her office is right next door -" he stated , searching our eyes . We all answered by nodding frantically .

After a few minutes of silence he spoke again . Nick was doing this on purpose , he paused for dramatic effect . He was doing this on purpose and I was getting impatient . " So as I was walking in the hallway , getting closet to Dr. Dooecha's office , I noticed her door was slightly open . As I walk past , I heard moaning and shuffling around . Knowing me , I stopped in my tracks and peaked inside but I couldn't exactly see who was inside with her ,"

My heart beating rapidly against my chest as he continued speaking , silently praying it wasn't Spencer who was inside with her , slapping my forehead with an imaginary hand at my idiocy . Nick just stated that she was with a woman inside her office but still I went ahead and thought of Spencer . Was this always the case, me assuming the worst of him without sparing him any room for benefit of the doubt?. I tightened my hold on the cup handle and I heard it crack under my tight grip . Seemingly I was prepared for the worst , after all there was always something going on with Spencer . If it wasn't Amanda ,his gorgeous stepsister who wanted more than a sibling relationship with him , it was the stunning model Courtney who made her intentions clear as day light that she has her eyes on the walking Greek Adonis , it was every other women in this province that gauged him and practically ate at his feet and worshiped the ground he walked on . Then it was the famous old doctor whom he spent five hours with , every single Tuesdays , doing whatever they want without any interruptions .

Again all of these things bring me to the question , if he can get whoever he wants without lifting a finger or with effort , what in the hell did he want from me and why couldn't he have left me alone to begin with ?
