Bad Romance

Chapter 15-The storm is coming

"Your friend is pregnant" the doctor's voice could still be heard in Vegas's mind. He was sitting in a chair by Pete's bed, holding his hand in his. It had been an hour since Vegas got the news about Pete's pregnancy and he still couldn't believe it. His gaze slowly went down to the abdomen that housed the child. If it was a totally different universe, this image was absolutely gorgeous, but it was reality. A reality that Vegas had to face.

Pete slowly opened his eyes and for a second he didn't know where he was. But then he had seen Vegas and the place where he was. At the hospital.

"What happened?" Pete asked softly.

"You passed out at Kim's party. I took you to the hospital as fast as I could" Vegas explained, still looking at Pete's abdomen.

"Oh...sorry about that. I do not know what is happening to me"

Vegas wanted to tell Pete about the pregnancy. About the fact that in some of them, they would hold their child in their arms, but he couldn't. It would be too much of a shock for him, and if Pete passed out again, something could happen to the baby. And it was no longer about Pete, it was also about the life that was forming inside him.

They talked a little and after a while, the doctor entered Pete's salon to check him. When Vegas saw the doctor, he motioned to her if they could talk alone in the hallway. The doctor went out into the hall, and behind her came Vegas, still looking at Pete and smiling. The moment the man closed the door behind him, his smile disappeared.

"What do you want to talk to me about, Mr. Theerapanyakul?"

"Pete. Regarding his pregnancy, you can't tell him anything. It's a more complicated situation and he shouldn't know yet"

"You have my word. But I still have to prescribe some medicines for the pregnancy to proceed normally. Plus now I have to check if everything is fine with both of them"

Vegas just nodded and opened the door. The doctor checked Pete, and when he asked the cause of his fainting, the doctor told him that it was only due to a lack of iron and calcium, and once he takes his supplements, everything will return to normal.

The next morning, Pete got the news that he could go home, and Vegas helped him get to his apartment. After Vegas made sure that Pete was fine, he went to buy him the supplements he needed, brought them to him and then left, telling him that he could rest tomorrow and still not get stressed and angry regarding him and Decha, because a solution will be found.

Night was beginning to fall over the crowded city, and Pete had laid down in bed, being quite tired. He put his hand over his stomach as usual when he slept on his side, without knowing that it was a protective gesture for the child in his womb.

Vegas had also arrived home where he had been greeted by Daw, and after they had eaten dinner together, they had both taken a long and relaxed shower, each having their own thoughts. They got into the bed, and Daw was the first to fall asleep. Vegas sat and thought about the turn his life had taken now. He was going to have a child with his best friend. But Vegas thought, are all the fits of jealousy when someone else is with Pete, just friendship? No, of course not. He was starting to develop feelings for his friend, and now with a child on the way, everything was going to get more complicated than it already was.

SECOND DAY MORNING

Vegas had woken up first, made breakfast for Daw, then got ready and left for the studio. Today, he just didn't feel like work, but he needed to free his mind somehow. When he entered the studio, he saw Kim coming out of the bathroom with a sad face. No doubt Kim was also thinking about Pete's pregnancy. When Kim saw Vegas, he headed towards him and they started the discussion that was waiting for a long time.
