Standing outside of the closed door, Chris adjusted his black jacket before raising his hand to knock on the door again. But he didnt get the chance to once it was swung open, a far from pleased Maleah standing on the other end.
"Absolutely not." She scoffed, going to close it but Chris quickly put his hand up to stop it. He knew she didn't want to speak to him and he understood why, due to everything that went down exactly a week ago.
7 days prior...
"Shut the fuck up right now." He pointed to her sternly, his eyes never coming off of the test that he reached down to pick up. Neither Chris nor Maleah were even paying attention to Luca who awkwardly stood watching the two of them. He of course knew it was a pregnancy test that dropped out of Maleah's hand, and for both her and Chris's sake considering he knew the situation, he could only hope the results weren't as they seemed.
Chris praying for the same thing in his head, but he knew it was no use once he grabbed the little device in his hand to pick it up. Turning it to face him, he read over the Clearblue pregnancy test results.
Pregnant 7-8 weeks*
Chris stared down at the test that remained in his hand with no expression on his face, no words leaving his mouth, just his eyes glued to the small device he held. Swallowing down hard, he glanced over towards Luca who stood with his lips pulled into his mouth. His hands clasped together in front of himself because he wasn't sure what to say either, everyone keeping silent until Jazlyn made her way out to the bathroom.
"Maleah what- oh...well I'll be dammed." She mumbled, stopping in place once seeing Chris with the test in his hand.
Glancing up at the sound of Jazlyn's voice, his eyes went straight to her hand where she held the other test. Reaching out, he said nothing as he grabbed it from her to see the same exact results. His eyes then trailing back to Maleah who stood nervously, her fingers fumbling with one another while her throat grew dry.
"...This a joke?" He raised an eyebrow, knowing it was a dumb question as soon as he felt Luca hit the back of his neck roughly. Snapping his head in his friends direction, Chris was about to snap until Maleah spoke up.
"Why would it be a joke...don't act stupid right now, please don't. I'm not in the mood." She raised her hand, a headache already coming over her due to the fact she finally got confirmation on something she basically already knew. And she for sure could do without any commentary or bullshit he planned on bringing, since that's all he really did seem to do nowadays.
