***Graces POV***
A hand was stroking my side. His face was laying in the crook of my neck as I laid in bed. I looked at the clock which read 8:46. That's weird... Daniel is usually up and getting ready for work by now.
Wait.
I rolled over to see Derek laying in my bed with me. "What the hell are you doing!" I jumped up and almost fell out of the bed. "Why are you in my bed?! Where is Daniel!"
He moved slowly and unalarmed at my tone of voice. He seemed peaceful and still half asleep.
"Well good morning to you to." He responded sarcastically.
"Why are you in my bed." I repeated myself as I slid out from under the sheets and onto the hard wood floor.
"Daniel left early for work and he told me to check on you every so often... So here I am."
"He didn't give you permission to lay in bed with me Derek. And I'm fine. I don't need anyone to 'check up on me'."
I grabbed a pair of pants realizing that I had slept in my underwear and a tshirt again.
"You're so beautiful. And that baby of ours in going to be just as beautiful." He looked to my stomach which was poking out from under my tshirt.
I quickly covered it and walked to my dresser.
"You don't know the baby's yours... It could be Daniels." I mumbled.
"Think about it grace." He stood up and walked over to where I was standing. He wrapped his arms around me until both of his hands were resting on my stomach. "It only makes sense. You had sex with me, unprotected, exactly five months ago." He got closer to my ear. "This is mine." His left hand gently rubbed my stomach. It was kinda scary.
His voice sent shivers down my spine.
"I'm just wondering when your gonna tell that boyfriend of yours the truth... I mean, when that baby comes out with black hair and tan skin, pasty boy isn't gonna be happy." He looked at a picture of Daniel and I. Both of us were very pale, while Derek was dark complected.
He was right. What if this baby is his. I couldn't hide it forever.
"Why don't you come down for breakfast. I made waffles and oatmeal. I hear you need to eat a lot when you're pregnant.l" his voice faded as he walked down the hall.
I followed him and reached the kitchen. Caleb and Elijah were sitting on the couch together. I found out they're both gay... And that they've been secretly dating for three months now.
I know. Crazy right?
I actually walked in on them making out a few weeks ago. I had just come home from class and it was pretty late. When I was walking down the hall, I accidentally opened the wrong door. They were both sitting on Eli's bed, intertwined with each other.
Everyone found out from then on... Including Caleb's girlfriend. Thankfully, she moved on and forgot all about him. She was a bitch anyways.
"Waffle?" Derek was holding out a plate to me. My stomach grumbled and my mouth began to water. "Uh, sure."
Even though I hate his guts, he has always been a fantastic cook. He used to bake all of the time until he got into drugs really bad.
I ate the breakfast as fast as I could. Then I joined the boys on the couch.
***NINE OCLOCK PM***
"Hey guys, We're going out tonight." Derek and Mikey were standing in the doorway. They were both dressed in nice black clothes that they never wear.
Daniel and I were laying on the floor in the living room. We each had our phones in our hand.
"You both look so adorable!" I stood up and walked over to them. "Please be careful... I don't want you guys drinking too much then driving..."
Mikey grabbed my shoulders. "Don't worry 'mom' we are taking a taxi." He smiled then grabbed his coat. We all heard a honk from outside. The taxi was here.
"You ready?" He looked towards Derek.
He licked his lips and nodded.
"See yall later on!" Mikey yelled as he exited the front door.
"Bye!" Daniel and I said in sync. I plopped down onto the couch.
"Soooo. Daniel grabbed my legs and slid up beside me. "We have the place to ourselves tonight... Whatcha wanna do..." He gave me a kiss and then another. His hands cupped my face and kid lips took control of mine.
I think I know what he wants to do tonight...
He stood up, picking me up bridal style. He carried me to his bedroom and set me down onto his bed. He slowly came up to me and gave me another kiss. This time, a little less aggressive.
"What are you doin..." I said as he laid down beside me.
"I don't wanna hurt the baby in any way shape or form..." He rubbed my stomach and layer his head down beside mine.
The guilt was taking over me. It was itching at my skin and ripping me apart. How could I have ever cheated on Daniel. He's so sweet and he cares for me...
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. His arms were wrapped around me as he pulled the blanket over me.
"I love you grace." He whispered in my ear.
"I love you too." I responded almost asleep.
