I Didn't Want To Stain Your Shirt

Mamrie's POV.

I pace back and fourth in the living room, trying to think what I should tell Grace and Hannah, but more importantly..Grace. My stomach is in knots and I feel sick, my hands are sweaty and I feel hot. I go to the bathroom and sit next to the toilet, I empty my stomach into the bowl and flush. I get up and rinse my mouth and splash water in my face. I brush my teeth and take a breath mint. I head into the kitchen and grab my keys and purse, I get into my car and head to Grace's house.

...

I walk up her front steps, and knock on the door nervously. She opens it with a wide smile. She greets me and I walk in, I sit on her couch and just look at her.

"Ok Mamrie what did you want to tell us" Hannah says

"Well there's good news and bad news.." I say nervously,

"Let's start with the good news" Grace says looking at Hannah

"Well im...pregnant.." I say with a weak smile

"Oh my god..Mamrie, your going to be a mother!" Hannah says jumping up. Grace just sits there with her hands on her mouth.

"What's the bad news then?" Grace asks

I look down,

"The bad news is..is that when Grace and Ches... is that umm...when Grace and Chester were dating...umm..me and him....kind of ..umm...hook up..." I look up and look at Grace

She's just staring at me with anger, her eyes are filled with tears. She shuts her eyes tightly and tears fall, she gets up,

"What the fuck Mamrie..." She says in an angry whisper

"Look im sorry, this was-" I say standing up

"No Mamrie.. I don't think I can forgive you for this.. Now leave!" She storms out of the room

I look at Hannah and she gives me a disapointed look and walks out following Grace.

I get up and head to my car..

..

Hannah's POV.

 I walk to the bedroom following Grace, I enter the bedroom and see shes not there. I walk over to the bathroom door and hear her digging through the drawers, I realize what shes looking for and try to open the door but its locked. I bang on the door,

"Grace don't you fucking dare! Your stronger than this!" I yell

Shes doesnt say anything back. I run to the kitchen and grab a knife, I run back and try to slide the knife between the door frame and the door to try to unlock the door. Im not able to unlock it, I throw the knife on the ground and start pounding on the door, I can hear her making small noises of pain. I back up a foot and kick the door as hard as I can, It swings open and Grace is on the floor crying with blood on her wrist. I can't take this anymore, she doesnt understand how much this hurts me seeing her like this, theres only one way to show her.. I walk towards where shes sitting, I pick up the blade thats lying beside her and start slashing my wrist. She looks up from her hands,

"HANNAH NO! STOP!!!" She yells while trying to stop me.

I look up at her with tears running down m cheeks,

"Now you understand.." My voice cracks at the end

She just stares at me, crying. I slide her shirt off and hug her tightly, I lean to her ear and whisper,

"I didn't want to stain your shirt.."
