Waterloo Road~ Gabriella & Hector Love Story (Fan-Fiction)

Chapter Forty Nine- Barry Knowing

One down, one to go. I had already told Hector the news. Now it was time for Barry to know.

I knew that telling Barry would most likely be more easier than what it was like telling Hector. Or at least I though.

I walked to school again. I was so used to ignoring Barry in the mornings now, that I nearly told him to go away again until I remembered.

"Just leave me al-" I stopped mid-sentence, "Actually, I need to talk to you".

"Sure", Barry nodded, looking calm and laid back (the exact opposite of Hector).

We went to the same, usual place which was behind that wall where Barry used (maybe still) to sell drugs.

"So...?" Barry waited.

"I've already told Hector", I informed him.

"This can't be good then", Barry sighed.

"Well", I started.

This time, I would just get it over with like ripping of a bandage.

"I'm pregnant", I said.

"Oh", Barry nodded.

Silence.

"Ohhhhh", Barry squinted.

More silence.

Barry's eyes went wide as if he was suddenly realising what this all meant.

"OH!" Barry suddenly started panicking.

"Are you okay?" I asked, slightly concerned at his expression.

"Hold on", Barry said.

He got out his bag and pulled a bottle of alcohol out. He just started downing half of the bottle. He put the lid back on and made it disappear again.

"I'm, uh" Barry stuttered, "Wh-How?"

"Did they not teach how intercourse worked in science?" I asked sarcastically.

"Wait", Barry's eyes went even wider, "Whose is it?"

"I don't know", I shrugged.

"Because, I, uh, forgot to mention something about that night we had", Barry avoided eye contact".

"What...?" I asked, expected the worst.

"I, um", Barry looked guilty, "I kind of forgot to use a condom".

"WHAT?!" I yelled with fury.

"Well, I was too lost in the moment!" Barry argued.

"THAT DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO-" I shouted.

"Just calm down", Barry sighed, "What does it matter now anyway? Did you and Hector use one?"

"Yes", I slightly nodded.

"Right", Barry stared into the distance, "Well, it still could be either of us. But the chances are-"

"I know, I know", I shook my head, not wanting him to say it, "Anyway, I was going to go and find out the results at the hospital tomorrow. So, if you wanted to come-"

"Well, I don't really have a choice", Barry said, "I suppose he's going then?"

"Probably", I awkwardly replied, "Meet you after school tomorrow then?"

"Yeah", Barry shrugged.

I gave him a kind of nod and walked off.

Well, that didn't go as well as I expected.
