[Author's notes: just for reference, CL is Caity Lotz, K is Keiynan Lonsdale, and D is Danielle Panibaker- also, I decided to make Candice and Danielle friends in this even though I don't think they are anymore in real life because it is easier- anyways enjoy]
Grant’s POV
It’s been about 2 months since Candice left, and I haven’t talked to her since. Lord knows how much I miss her. We are on summer hiatus, so we are back in Los Angeles. LA can tell something is up because I've been pretty cold and distant since she got back partly because I still can’t believe she broke up with me to be by her ex’s bed side but mostly because I now truly realize that I don’t truly love her, at least not like I love Candice. But I don’t know what to do because the wedding is in 3 months and even though LA hurt me I don’t want to hurt her back. L: “earth to Grant” I snap out of my thoughts G: “yeah what is it” L: “are you ok you haven’t been yourself since I got back” G: “yeah I’m fine just nervous for the wedding” L: “and why is that” before I could respond I got an unexpected text from Candice which saved me from this awful conversation [“can we talk it’s important”] which I reply with [“yeah i’ll be there in 15’] G: “I’m so sorry LA but I have to go it’s an emergency” L: “fine but we aren't done with this conversation” I grab my keys and hurry out the door
Candice’s POV
A week earlier
For the past week I have been feeling horrible, I can’t keep any food down and every smell makes me so nauseous but luckily we are on hiatus for another month so hopefully I will feel better by then but just to be safe I texted Danielle and Caity to come over and then texted Keiynan who was out at the store C[“hey before you head back over here can you stop and get me a pregnancy test”] K[“girl stop playing with me I know you haven’t been feeling well but I don’t think you need one of these you’re not even having sex”] C[“can you just grab some please”] K[“if you say so”] I put my phone down and waited for them all to get here. 15 minutes later *knock knock* “it’s open” I say as all three of them walk in CL: “can you explain why Keiynan said you asked him to get a pregnancy test” D: “yeah I would like to know too” C: “I’ll explain later right now I just need y’all here with me” KDCL: “ok” I grab the test from Keiynan and we head up to my bedroom. I head into my bathroom, pee into a plastic cup, dip 2 test in there, and leave one just in case I need to take another one. I turn them over wash my hands and leave the bathroom, I have never been more nervous in my life C: “can one of y’all set a timer for 5 minutes” D: “on it” I sit down on my bed with the rest of them and before I could say anything they ask me to spill C: “ok I will” CL: “well hurry up we are not getting any younger” K: “who did you sleep with, was he cute” CL: “when was it” D: “guys, she can’t tell us anything if we keep asking questions” C: “thanks Dani, anyways it happened over two months ago and before you ask no it wasn’t a one night stand. It lasted about a week before I broke it off” CL: “why did you break it off” C: “I’ll get to that. At first, I didn’t think I could be pregnant because we used protection, but looking back, I don’t think we did the first night we did it” KDCL: “CANDICE!” C: “I know I fucked up but that’s not the worst part” KDCL: “why not” C: “because it was with Grant” I put my head in my hands as I saw all of them go wide mouth KDCL: “CANDICE!” K: “what were you thinking he has a fiance” C: “I wasn’t, and at the time he didn’t” KDCL: “ what do you mean *ding* the timer goes off and I get up to go look at the test when I’m stopped K: “oh no you don’t you’re gonna finish this story” C: “ fine. Well the simplified version is basically LA broke things off with him because her ex was in a coma and she said she needed to focus on him getting better and that when he wakes up they could get back together” CL: “why did he take her back then” C: “I don’t know, anyway he texted me and said he wanted to talk and he explained what had happened, then he kissed me and I kissed him back, then I came to my senses and explained to him that we couldn’t do this because he was probably gonna take her back and I didn’t want to get hurt, but then he told me he still loved me then one thing lead to another and I ended up being there for a week and a half before she texted him that she was coming back. Then I broke things off and haven’t spoken to him since” D: “wow that was a lot, did he want you to leave” C: “no but I didn’t want to be the other girl so I left” tears start to form in my eyes so they all come in to give me a hug CL: “hey it’s gonna be ok we are right her to support you no matter what happens” K: “yeah, but it’s now time for you to get that test” C: “ok” I have never been more nervous in my life but I gain some strength and go grab the test. I don’t look at them and take them to my bed C: “I don’t want to look so y’all look first” KDCL: “ok” I hand them the test and close my eyes because their reaction will be a dead give away, they look at the test and then I ask them to hand me them back and when I saw the results my heart sank into my stomach. C: “I- I’m pregnant” tears start falling down my face, then I look up, and all 3 of them have their mouths wide open. I think they were more shocked than I am. K: “oh my gosh Candice, what are you gonna do C: “I- I don’t know” still crying D: “hey don’t cry we will be here to support you whatever you chose” CL: “are you gonna tell Grant” C: “I think I have to cause I wanna keep it” K: “well then we are gonna be with you every step of the way” C: “thanks guys honestly if you take away the fact that the baby is Grant’s and the fact that my character in the show won’t be pregnant anytime soon I am actually excited to be a mom” I say wiping away my tears” D: “they will probably find a good way to hide it” C: “yeah” K: “just saying we are gonna be the best aunties and uncle". That makes me laugh and forget about all the complicated stuff in this situation. For the rest of the night, we lay in my bed, eat ice cream, and watch movies until we all fall asleep.
