Lust with you and me {Waterloo road}

Ch.18

Riley knew how she could have been pregnant and she was scared. She didn't know what she was going to do.

Riley knew her mum knew. But Meredith had gone away again for a surgery. Riley knew she wanted to talk to her sister.

Riley quickly got out of bed and made her way downstairs. Aimee had been staying with them since she had left Max.

"A-Aimee."

"What's up?"

Riley sighed. "I told mum this. But I think that I'm pregnant. And I'm scared. Mum was meant to get me a test. But she's been called away on that surgery in London," she mumbled.

Aimee nodded and looked to her. She smiled. "I'll pick up a test on the way to the school. We'll keep it in my car so no one sees it. Okay?"

"Okay. Thanks."

"You're welcome. Is this what you were upset about the other day?" Aimee asked.

Riley nodded. She wiped away some tears. "I'm just scared that if I am, it will ruin my future," she mumbled.

"It will be okay. I've got your back."

Riley went into school. Aimee had bought her the pregnancy test. She looked to her. "Can you bring me home? I don't fancy walking."

"Duh. Of course I can. Listen. Whatever that test says, we've got this. I'm going to be by your side. I promise," Aimee said.

Riley nodded and sighed. She walked off into the school. Riley saw Simon and walked in the opposite direction. She hated how she couldn't even talk to him.

She knew that everything was a complete mess. She knew how she was struggling with so much.

Riley was sitting in the common room. She looked up as Simon walked towards her. "What's up? I saw you earlier. You looked upset," he said.

Riley sighed. "It's nothing. Don't worry about it."

"But I do worry about it. I care about you," Simon said. He knew he wanted to take her hand. But he couldn't. "Talk to me."

Riley shook her head. "Honestly. It's fine. Don't even worry about it," she mumbled as she sat with her phone in her hand.

Simon looked to her. He knew that something was bothering her. He wanted to know what it was.

He smiled. "Listen. Whatever is going on, I'm here for you. I love you. And nothing will ever change," he told her.

"Okay."

Simon stood up and walked off. He knew for sure now that Riley was hiding something from him. He just didn't know what.

Riley went back home with Aimee. She sighed as she sat on the sofa. Aimee looked to her. "You ready to do this? Or do you wanna have some dinner first?" She asked.

"Let's just do it. That way I won't throw up what I eat," Riley mumbled as she smiled.

Aimee nodded and handed her the test. "Do you want me to tell you what it is? Or not?"

Riley nodded. "Yeah please. I just... I'm scared," she admitted.

Riley went to rake the test. She handed it to Aimee while she washed her hands. She went to sit with Aimee on her bed and sighed. "Well?"

"It's..."
