Give me a reason

... What the fuck?!

People look at me, trying to wrap their brains around the whole situation that had just unfolded before their very eyes. As well as I.

"What. The. Fuck." Julius says, "Language." A random lady scolds speed walking past us with a clipboard in her hand.

Julius starts brushing through my hair, "What is Reece smoking talking about you're pregnant? That boy has gone mad." He stars laughing lightly.

I remain quiet.

"Tell me he's kidding. He's kidding right?" He says.

Crickets…

"You're pregnant?!" He shout whispers. Standing in front of me, staring me right in the eyes.

"Yeah, I can't believe it either." Casey says walking by.

Our eyes connect for a quiet while before he looks ahead of him.

I look back towards Julius "I just found out today!" I defend.

He pulls a chair from the station next to us and takes a seat, full attention on me.

"You and James had sex?!" He says even more frantic and even more quiet. I shake my head no..

"Wait, so it really is Reece's?" He asks. "Not an 'it'." I correct, "Sorry, but the baby really is his?" I nod my head yes. "When did this happen?" The situation baffling him. "I never cheated on James, it happened like 4 months ago." "And you're just now figuring this out???!" He exclaims. "Didn't you notice that you weren't having your period!?" He says sarcastically. "Well I was taking stuff so that I wouldn't get it so no." I explain. "Wow…" He trails. "On the brighter side of things, I'm having twin girls." I beam "Oh my god!" He squeals.

Now he's straight but he has the personality of me sometimes XD XD XD

"Yeah." I smile lightly. "Any names in mind?" He asks.

"None. And since I can't exactly communicate with him, I don't know what I'm going to do." I state my dilemma. "Simon will let up eventually, just give him some time." He nods. "Hopefully." I laugh, he smiles and rubs his hand in my hair.

"What do you want today?" He asks, turning my chair so that I'm facing the mirror, him standing behind me. "I don't know you're the genius." I coo he rolls his eyes and then starts, but first me turns me around. Hiding my vision until the finished product.

"The one next to Noni." I head a girl say, moments later Casey's brother walks over, plopping down in the chair next to mine, the one Reece was Perviously in.

"Nice to see you again." He smiles at me, showing off his groundbreaking smile. "And you." I say normally. Taking out my phone, going through twitter.

"Are you mad at me or something?" He laughs. Then I realize what a bitch I'm being. "I'm kinda an ass." I admit. "You said it not me." We laugh. "Would I be an even bigger ass if I tell you to tell me your name again, because I totally forgot." I admit, feeling kind of bad. "I cannot believe you forgot me name." He places his hand over his heart, acting offended.

"I'm sorry!" I boast, he laughs. "It's Chet." (In the cover) He rises momentarily to shake my hand. "Oh yeah, I remember now." My brain finally catching up. "Kind of an odd one." He chuckles. "Not as weird as mine." I laugh at the awkwardness my name contains.

"Noni's not a weird name. It's cute, like you." He looks into my eyes and smiles. I blush and roll my eyes. "That was terrible." Julius boasts into laughter. "Yeah, I know." Chet laughs too.

"So I heard you and my brother had a bit of a thing." He raises his eyebrow, "Casey too? Noni!" Julius boasts, "Not like that." I defend.

"It's not what it seems." I breath, looking into Chet's brown eyes. "Oh no I'm not judging, I was just kind of salty I didn't get a chance." He shrugs and then let's out a laugh. "You aren't going to get one anytime soon kid." Julius states and then I laugh. "Not even as a mate?" He asks. "Probably not." I shake my head, trying to avoid all of this shitty conflict. "Aw, man." He snaps his fingers, like 'Dang it!' He sounds in his chair.

"I guess no one told you that I'm one of the dancers now." He smirks. I let out a laugh "No you're not." I state. "True. But!" He holds up his hand to finish but Julius and I start fits of laugher before he had the chance to.

"I'm trying so hard! Just please hangout with me tonight, no strings attached just a friendly old time." He asks, pleading for approval with his deep eyes. Julius nudges me I look up at him, he smirks and then shrugs.

I look at Chet and think for a moment. "Where?" I ask "Wherever you want." He smiles. "Fine. But don't think anything special of it." I say, connecting the two, getting it through his head. A beautiful smile spreads across his face like smooth butter.

He looks me over and then bites his lip. "Hey!" I snap my fingers, he looks into my eyes "Stop." I say, "I'm not doing anything wrong. Just looking at my future girl." He laughs. I glare at him playfully "Hey. Watch it." I point my finger, we laugh and he shakes his head. Some girl moves over to him and starts styling his hair.

Julius finishes with my hair and makeup, "You're done my love." He laughs at his little rhyme, he turns me to look into the mirror, he gave me really pretty loose curls, braided the few front pieces to the back of my head, did all full face with lashes and mascara. Very pretty.

"Thank you love!" I pull him into a hug. "Anytime, text me!" He says "I will." I smile, I grab my phone and start walking,

"Beautiful."

Chet's looking up at me. "Thanks." I smile, continuing my walk, my feet take me behind the stage, Simon and our choreographer Justin are talking. Simon spots me, "You look great Noni." Simon says dismissing Simon.

"So, I saw you and Chet." He smirks a bit. "Nothing is happening." I groan, "No! I was going to say that you and Reece can date, due that you're pregnant and all but this is good, if you could somehow get into a relationship with Chet, that would be really good for the situation. Then people could slowly forget about you and James." He tells me. My jaw drops.

"Really Simon?! Can't I just have a simple friendship without having to think about what the public is going to think?!" I snap.

His face softens, "I'm sorry." He nods, "But can I tell you something?" I nod, "When you go out there they are going to go mad with questions on you. You can't blow up, you can't react. You have to answer calmly. Okay?" I nod in understandment.

"Put this in your ear." He hands me a small earpiece, "I will tell you what to say okay?" I put the tiny device in my ear and nod. "Okay, we take the stage in 15 so get ready." He walks away, I take a seat on a broken down looking sofa.

Reece walks around the corner, me coming into his sight. He cautiously walks over to me. He let's out a loud breath as he awkwardly sits down on the couch next to me.

"So, Simon talked to me." He speaks quietly. I close my eyes. "Why didn't you just tell me?" He asks. "I don't know." I say. "If this is what you want then fine, Simon said we can still date, for the babies sake." He says softly. "I was thinking about everything, and I don't think that I want to have a relationship with you." I say softly, avoiding eye contact. "What?" His voice cracks. "You hurt me, way more than I let myself realize. I can't do it. I'm sorry." I say dazing at my shoes. "I told you I was sorry, I though you forgave me." "Well you thought wrong." I snap. "I'm trying to get you back, why won't you let me?" I look up at him, "Because."

I really don't have a reason, I just want this all to end.

"Because? That's your reason?" He says in a 'really?' tone.

"I like girls."
