Sacred Trust

Chapter Twelve

"What on earth are you talking about?" I frowned.

"You don't have to pretend, I know about it." he reassured me.

"Well that makes one of us." I stated.

I had no idea what he was talking about. Why was he being so cryptic? Couldn't he just spit it out, what was with all the riddles?

He stared at me, clearly waiting for me to say something, but I had no idea what to say.

"I still don't know what you mean." I said eventually.

He rolled his eyes and smiled slightly. I shrugged as he continued staring at me. He sat next to me on the bathtub.

"Do you really not know what I'm talking about?" he frowned.

"No, I haven't got a clue." I stated.

"I was cleaning the bathroom and I found this in the bin." he stated.

I looked down at his hand as he handed me something. I felt my blood run cold as I saw that it was a pregnancy test.

"So like I said congrats." he smiled.

I smiled falsely back.

"What are you going to do?" he asked.
I shrugged and looked away from him. I felt him place his arm around my shoulders.

"You know you can talk to me." he stated.

"Yeah I do." I sighed.

"Thanks for being here for me Ashton." I said quietly.

"No problem, it's what friends are for." he told me.

"You have a big decision to make." he stated.

"Have you spoken to Luke about it?" he asked me.

"Nope." I said quietly.

"Well you'll need to talk to him." he told me.

"No, I don't, because it's not my test!" I hissed as I angrily flung it into the bin.

Ashton turned pale and stared at me, completely speechless.

My head snapped up as Luke walked into the bathroom.

"Oops sorry." he said as he started to turn away. He stopped and turned back to face us.

"What's going on in here?" he asked as he looked between Ashton and me.
