Triangle

Chapter Two

"Pregnant? Really...? How far along am I?" I asked my voice shaky.

"6 weeks. I'll be back to check on you shortly," the doctor said as he walked out eyeing Damian and giving me a sypathetic look.  

I looked at Damian who was staring at my stomach with utter distaste. I looked down covering my stomach with my hands before reaching one out to him.

"Are you okay..?" I asked him in a soft voice.

"How!? When!?" He suddenly yelled out skipping back a couple steps.

"I don't know... But it did happen... We are going to be parents Damian..." I said trying to stand up. He ran towards the door and gave me a panicky look and ran out the door. I slowly lowered myself back onto the bed, my heart sinking into my chest. How could I be so excited? Why wasn't Damian excited? What were we going to do? My rambling thoughts were interrupted just as the door opened and Tyler was standing there watching me.

"Are you okay?" He asked me his bright blue eyes low to the ground his blonde curly hair a mess. 

He shook his head blushing as he sat on the edge of my bed.

"What happened?"

"You were sleeping and I grabbed your hand and kissed your head then your lips... I didn't realize your thing was standing right there..." He said blushing bright red. Was it bad that i began giggling?

"Think that's funny do you? Well take this!" He began tickling me causing me to go breathless with countless giggles leaving my lips.

Tyler had flirted with me on and off for years, it was our thing. I never thought of it as anything more, it was just the way our friendship was. 

"Tyler stop! I have to tell you something!" I yelled pulling away and catching my breath; his eyes searched my face.

"What's wrong?" He asked grabbing my hand.

"Ty... I'm pregnant..." I whispered watching his face. His expressions went completely blank and he stared at my stomach with his mouth open.

"Pregnant... By him??" He asked his eyes never leaving my stomach But his face slowly turns into one of disgust. I looked down feeling shameful, all my excitement from before now gone. 

"I didn't plan it, neither of us did, but it did happen. Look Ty... I know you hate him, but... This is MY child too." I whisper looking down at my stomach my hands wrapping around it protectively. This was not how I imagined having my first child but I didn't know what else to do about it. 

"Violet... Why are you in here? If you didn't know you were pregnant then why are you here?" His eyes never left my stomach or my bandaged arm, he knew the answer to the question before he even asked. 

"You know why Tyler, you're a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of them," I whispered grabbing his hand and curling into him slightly, half expecting him to pull away. Instead, he climbed in bed and laid down next to me and stroked my hair as I rested my head on his shoulder. 

"What's the happy father think about all of this?" Tyler asked playing with my fingers. 

"I am pretty sure he hates the baby. He didn't want it, I don't really know, he left as soon as he found out I was pregnant, I don't know where he went." I said sighing curling into my best friend a little more. 

"I'll never leave you, Violet, not ever."
