It's your fault

Chapter thirty: What if?

~~~~~

"What was the dream about?" Ethan asks me.

I'm too out of it to make up a lie so I just tell him the truth.

"Me and you." I rub my eyes and pull the blanket up so that I'm snug. "Well it must have been something bad, you were thrashing in your sleep that's why I woke you up."

I listen as he plays with my foot from over the cover. "It was just a dream, I'm fine." I wiggle my toes when he tries to crack them. I hate when other people try to crack something if mines.

Ethan tries to do it all the time, so did my mother. She would get a big kick out of it when I would try to wiggle away from her.

Either way she always ended up cracking them.

I'm so fucking hungry! I suddenly shout in my head. I'm not sure when someone will be back so I can tell them I'm starving.

"Come here!" I pat the bed next to me, speaking with my sweet voice. I'm debating if I should show him the note or just wait. So when he cuddles up with me I lay on his chest, saying absolutely nothing for at least a couple of minutes.

Taretto's P.O.V

"And if the baby isn't one of ours? What if it is actually Ethan's baby?!" Tommy stands in my office, yelling in my face!

Before he goes any further with his bullshit I put him on his place.

"Do you remember who your talking to?! If you don't bring your voice down to a respectable level when you speak to me I will go find a dollar whore and make her bite your pathetic excuse of a dick off do you understand me?!"

His eyes grow to the size of a guys swollen balls when I finished. I will not be disrespected in my house by a little fuck boy!

"Remember where you came from, think twice about how you approach me!" I take a deep breath to calm myself.

Now that this wee fuck is listening I go to speak.

"The chances of the baby being Ethan's is slim. She's been here for three weeks now and we've all had a fair share of fucking her sweet pussy! So don't worry about the baby not being ours."

Tommy stands before me with his frowned brows, anger all over his face. Please don't let the baby be his!

"There's still a slight chance boss."

"Well if the baby is his then it's theirs and we leave them alone there's nothing more we can do about it and if you object with the decision then you can go talk to management!"

Management is no one to mess with. Not even I enjoy coming in contact with management.

Once I say that Tommy gets the picture and shuts up about it.

"Where's Ethan now?" I take a sip of my scotch. "He's with Alice in her room." Tommy's voice sounding disgusted.

"Well go get Demetrius and head down there. You bring Ethan to me and let Demetrius stay with her, and make sure Ethan sees Demetrius going in!"

Getting Ethan to think that Demetrius is fucking Alice is the best thing right now. Demetrius is just the guy to get the job done. Making Alice like him, trust him.

If this all goes as planned Ethan will think Alice is falling for Demetrius and that she's actually cheating on him. This can only work out for us, perfect!

Ethan's P.O.V

Why is she not saying anything? Did I do something wrong? She's just laying on my chest not saying a word.

"Babe?" I stroke her smooth and silky hair. She doesn't bother to lift her to look at me. "Yeah?" Her fingers tap on the side of my stomach. I can tell there's something bothering her, she calls me over, lays on me and says nothing as she fiddles her fingers.

"Can you tell me what's wrong?" I take a section of her hair and lift it so it stands straight up. For it being so silky it falls right out from my fingertips. "There's nothing wrong." Her tone weak as she speaks.

"Alice please stop saying that! I know there's something your not telling me! I know when my girlfriend is upset." I sit up so now she has to look at me.

"Demetrius told me something." She makes a sniffle noise as she scratches her nose. "What did he tell you?"

"Well he- didn't really tell me he...uh..wrote it down." She seems hesitant to tell me. "He wrote it down?" She looks up at me from under her lashes, giving me a nod.

"What did it say?" She leans her back on the wall, crossing her legs. Her eyes are not on me, her head lays back on the wall. Her head tilts to the side as she looks over to the other side of the room.

"Alice?" The look in her eyes makes her seem distant and distracted. She nods here head in the direction her eyes are fixed on. "It's in the drawer." She needs to snap out of whatever this is.

"I want you to tell me." My thumb caressing her knee. "It's about the baby." Her head turns, now facing me. My beautiful Alice seems to have given up, she can't give up. I won't let her.

"Whatever it said I'm sure everything will be okay. I'm going to stay right here by your side."

Knock! knock!

The sudden bang gives me a jolt but I look at Alice and she has no reaction.

Come on baby, don't give up.

The door opens and Colton walks in with Demetrius close behind.

"Taretto wants to see you." Colton stops a few feet in front of the door, but Demetrius continues to walk up to the bed me and Alice are sitting on. I ignore Demetrius and turn to Alice.

"I'll be back okay?" My hand underneath her chin as she looks into my eyes. "Okay." Softly spoken. With that I give her a kiss and stand, facing Demetrius. Are glares are exchanged and I walk over to Colton who stands staring at Alice.

"Don't worry I'll take care of her." I hear Demetrius

say from behind me. I immediately turn around to confront him. He stands his ground with a smirk planted on his face. "Leave her alone!"

Colton takes my arm, my reflex yanking my arm from his grip.

"I'm good, let's just go." I stare at Demetrius as I speak to Colton. With that we go, leaving Alice with this dickhead.

Alice P.O.V

"Lay down and take your clothes off!" Demetrius stalks towards me.

Wait what?
