The Vacation

Part 2 chapter 3

He wasn't ok. That hurt him. What I said. Why did I say it? I don't know. I guess he needed to know. Anyway he left me alone for a while and I hope he just thought it was because my hormones were high because I was prego.

I was in bed thinking when I realized it was 12pm. DAMN! I have to get up. Right as I thought this the doorbell rang. I looked down at the baby bump and smiled. Then, I got up to get the door. Jordan had beaten me to it and even though we were both upset with each other he hugged me. Before he answered the door he told me that he had invited his friend Shawn over. I just said "ok" and rolled my eyes.

He proceeded to answer the door and Shawn greeted him with a 'bro' hug. Jordan introduced him to me and he looked me directly in the eyes and said "hi Sabrina. Its nice to meet you." I just shook his hand and said "you too" and smiled. I knew that so called flirting with Shawn in front of Jordan wasn't good but, it was hard not to. Jordan disappeared and said that he'd be right back and that Shawn and I should get to know each other.

I just stood there not knowing what the hell to do. I just gave him a look and he took me hand. I didn't know where we were going but, he led me out the door. He walked with me to a table in our backyard near the pool. I sat down and motioned for him to sit next to me. He did and he said "so how have you been?" Then I started to cry. It had all come down on me...how much Jordan had meant to me and now it's nothing. I managed to make out "terrible" under my breath. But, he was close enough so he could hear. I was going to use the guilt trip for this one. He said "aw why" sounding concerned. When tears streamed down my face and I didn't answer, he put his arms around me and said "it's ok. Jordan will be right back." I said loudly "I don't want him to come back." Then I ran off into a place under a tree. That was my spot and that's the reason I had left a chair there. If there was no chair I would've just stood there because I wouldn't want my sundress ruined. I just sat there- holding my face in my hands and crying.

Shawn eventually made his way over. I didn't say anything until I calmed down. I said "i'm sorry. It's just-". He cut me off saying "Aw it's ok. I don't like seeing beautiful girls cry.". That left me with a smile on my face because I haven't been told anything nice lately. I had stopped crying and Shawn was close. He grabbed the back of my neck with his sweaty palms and leaned in signaling for me to lean in too. I did indeed lean in. I needed to. We started kissing slowly then all at once for what felt like five minutes until Jordan came out.

Jordan pulled Shawn away from me and said "OMG! You really can't be trusted around girls can you?" Shawn just gave him a disappointed look and got up and left. I didn't know what to do. I had totally messed up with Jordan what was I supposed to do. Jordan just took my hands and said "calm down. Everything will be alright." I just thought to myself- he is a guy what the hell does he know. I got up and he just hugged me and until he let go I stayed there wrapped in his arms. Eventually he let go and I ran off to town.

I got to the main center of town when I met up with a guy who I had been friends with for a while, Dylan. He had come over to me noticing that 1. I was pregnant and 2. that I had been crying.

All I did was hugged him and he did the talking realizing I was upset. He pointed at my stomach and said "when did that happen." I just said "I don't know and I wish it hadn't." Then my head drooped like a sad puppy tail between their legs. I was really upset and it didn't hit me this hard before. I thought Jordan and I would be together forever but, I guess not.

We were now sitting down in front of the ice cream store and talking. I told him everything that happened especially that I hated the man I was having the baby with and didn't know what to do. He gave me great advice. He told me "Sabrina, you never looked so stressed out in your life. It's making me worried. Please take a break from Jordan and let things settle. Talk to him and see what he wants to do and you'll work things out." I could only manage to say "Thank you so much." He said "it's no problem." I asked him to put his number in my phone in case I needed anything or if he needed anything. Then I left to go back home worried, scared and excited all at once.
