His girl (Eastenders)

0015💗

Jack walked into the bathroom. He frowned as he looked into the bin and saw a pregnancy test box. He picked it up.

He saw that it was empty and frowned. He quickly did what he needed to and went downstairs. Grace and Charley were there. He put the box on the table. "Who's pregnant?" He asked.

Grace paled. She knew it was her pregnancy test. And she knew it was negative. "It's mine. My period was late and I thought I'd take one. See what was happening. The test was negative. I'm not pregnant," Charley said.

Grace frowned as she looked to Charley. Why had she taken the blame for her?

Jack nodded. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"What? Get your hopes for up a baby that might not even be there? And there isn't. It's fine. I just forgot to put the box in the outside bin," Charley said.

Jack nodded and kissed her. He hugged Grace before he walked off.

As soon as Jack was gone, Grace looked to Charley. "Why? Why did you cover for me?" She asked.

Charley smiled. "Let's be real here babes. Your dad would have gone mad. He would have stopped from you seeing Keegan. We both know that," she told her.

"Thank you. No one would ever do that for me," Grace said as she hugged Charley.

Grace went to see Keegan. Karen let her in and smiled. "Alright love?" She asked.

"I'm fine thank you."

Keegan pulled her into his room. He looked to her. "I missed you."

"I missed you too. My dad found the pregnancy test box. Charley told him that it was hers. I've been awful to her in the past. And she's been covering for me," Grace mumbled.

Keegan paled as he looked at her. "Bloody hell."

"I know. So I just think we need to be careful. I don't know how much longer she will cover for me. Especially if it causes issues with my dad."

Keegan smiled and kissed her. He held her close. "It will be okay. I know it will," he said.

"I hope so. Let's go get some food. I'm starved."

"McClunkys? My treat."

"Okay."

The two of them walked through the square. Keegan smiled as they saw Jack. "Hey Mr B. How are you?" He asked.

Jack looked to them both and frowned. He nodded. "I'm good thank you. How are you? Grace, I want you home for dinner," Jack said.

Grace frowned. But she nodded. She couldn't help but worry that Jack had caught on to the fact the pregnancy test was hers.

Jack walked off. Keegan frowned. "Is he okay?"

"I don't know. I think he knows. He knows the test was mine," Grace mumbled.

Keegan paled. "If he knows, then I'm as good as dead."

"Don't be dramatic."

Grace went back home. She saw Charley sitting on the sofa. Jack standing there with his arms crossed. "So I know the truth. That test, it was yours Grace. Amy told me."

Grace paled. She looked to Charley. "Amy. She saw you taking the test. She was hidden behind the shower curtain. I didn't know anything about it until your father called me back."

Grace nodded. She looked to Jack. "It was my idea to not tell you. It was mine. I didn't want you going mad."

"And now I know the truth. Grace, you are not to see Keegan again. I can't allow it."

Grace was shocked. She looked at her dad. But was he serious about stopping her from seeing Keegan?
