Loving Alistair Creed

together or having sex?

"We thought you'd ditched school already Alana," Mr. Trey says, quite flirtatiously if you ask me. I guess Will is a little concerned about my sick day.

"Nope," I flick my hair, "Im not a quitter," I flash him my best flirty eyes before taking my seat. I wait for Alistair to come in and take his seat a few spaces in front of me. As he does, he sends me a quick wink before throwing his books on the table. This makes me smile. Reapplying my lipstick Pink leans across to me.

"Are you sure that there's nothing going off between you and Mr. I hate your guts?" "Yeah, I'm sure Pink."

"You'd tell me?"

"I'd tell you," with that I try to give her my best smile without giving my guilty look away. Alistair clearly heard every word because he turns around, giving me the 'don't tell her yet' look. I nod in agreement and he sighs in relief. As much as I want to tell the world, I love being Alistairs secret. Besides, we've only been together a few days.

"So, Math." Suddenly my head feels funny and my body drops to the floor.

Flickering my eyes open, I'm lay in a white room. I try to sit up, but I'm unable to.

"Hey," someone squeezes my hand for reassurance. It's Pink.

"Where am I?"

"Only in the nurses office, no need to worry." She smiles at me and hands me a glass of water. "You need to drink up, because the nurse thinks you need to take this," I sit up a little more and she hands me a box. A heavy weight feels like it's been dropped on my shoulders. No. I can't be.

The doors swing open and Alistair rushes in, stopping in his tracks when he sees the box. He shakes his head and leaves the room running his hands through his hair. I jump off my bed, suddenly finding the energy to.

"Alistair wait," I shout to him down the hallways causing an audience.

"No, you're not." I walk closer to him.

"I've not taken it yet, I don't know," his hands rub at his eyes like he's pushing back tears. Again, he turns and runs.

"Alistair." He stops and turns to face me.

"I'm not ready to be a Dad Lars," the sadness in his eyes makes me want to cry and all I want to say is 'and you think I'm ready to be a mum?' But I can't. Instead I ignore the stares and snide comments and walk back through the doors to where Pinks sat.

"Don't," I say, as she gives me a knowing look. "Just don't." I grab the test and walk towards the small toilet room in the nurses office. My hands shake as I try to remove the test from its box.

Pacing back and forth I wait for the test to come to a conclusion. Pink looks at her watch.

"Okay, three minutes. Are you going to look or shall I?" I don't even let her finish the sentence before I've grabbed the stick off the bed.

"Jeez it's like you've done this before. You're not even scared." I stare at the little pink line that appears in front of me.

"That's because I have Pink," I show her the stick and she looks confused and relieve all at once. I have no time to explain to her right now.

"What do you mean "I have"? Is that some kind of sick joke?" My voice raises and I begin to get a little angry as tears well in my eyes.

"I've been pregnant before Pink! Is that so hard to believe?" I guess someone like me, someone who sleeps with endless amounts of lads, is supposed to get pregnant. Isn't that some kind of slut trait?

"Why did you never tell me?"

"Because it broke my heart when I lost it okay?" She doesn't say anything after that. She knows not to I guess.

Back at home I decide to stay curled up in my duvet all day. I mean, I'm happy with the results. I didn't want to go through what I went through before. There's a loud knock at my door outside and less that minutes later the same knock taps on my door before someone emerges from it. I roll my eyes.

"What do you want Ali?"

"Im here to apologise, I reacted in a bad way and I shouldn't of." I sit up to allow him a space to sit next to me.

"I guess you're here for the verdict? Well the test says I'm not pregnant," I try to keep it humorous. Alistair looks relieved and that reassures me that we'll be okay.

"I just need to know one thing," Alistair nods for me to go on.

"If the test showed I was pregnant, what would you have done?" He hesitates a little before shrugging.

"I don't know, I honestly don't know. I mean I over reacted a little. I'm seventeen, got my whole life ahead of me, I didn't want a baby, but I guess if you were, I'd stick by you because you make me happy, baby or no baby." I smile and climb onto his lap. His hands fly to my hips and his thumb runs along the gap between my vest top and waistband to my jeans. my lips brush against his ans my eyes close slowly- The door flies open and Alistair pushes me off his lap, clearing his throat. My Mother is stood in the door way with one hand over her eyes.

"Shit, mum." I don't know what to say at first. "Mum take your hand from your eyes goddamnit, we ain't naked." Her face has gone a little red and Alistair smirks beside me before we both burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" My mother chirps.

"Your face mum."

"Since when have you been, you know," she waves her index finger at us.

"Together or having sex?" I smile sarcastically at my mum and the look on her face is priceless.

"Tog...to...er...together of course." A smug look crosses Alis face and I have to throw a pillow at his head.

"Mum don't worry, just a couple of days," I chuckle as her face goes back to normal.

"So, how?"She asks.

"How?" Ali quotes.

"Yeah, like how did you become so fond of eachother?"

"Oh god Mrs Smoke, we're not. Infact we hate eachother. So much so, I'm actually just using her." Alistair sends his voice a little higher so he sounds more like a British girl.

"Mum, he's joking. I don't really know, it just happened okay, now can you leave?"

"Oh yeah yeah, I just came to say tea will be ready soon," I nod and she leaves the room, closing the door behind her. As soon as the door clicks shut, I climb back on to Alis lap.

"Now, where were we?"
