I am speechless. I have absolutely no words to describe how I feel. Miserable, heartbroken, tragic, terrible, sick and betrayed did not even begin to describe how I am feeling.
How could Beth be pregnant? With James' baby? After I had just lost mine.. Why? What is he going to do? Will he leave me for her, that's a thought I push to the very back of my head. Of course James wasn't going to leave me for Beth! Right??
"S-So what a-are you gonna d-do?" I ask, not wanting to hear the answer. My heart is already broken, I don't need this.
"Riley, I love you, you know that," He says quietly. I get a tiny but of hope. "But, I-I can't be with you."
Tears start streaming down my face, I hate him, I hate her. I guess I thought I was worth more than that. That he was going to try to fight for me. But I was wrong. James doesn't care. I get up and storm out.
"Don't ever talk to me again!" I shriek, slamming the door behind me. Tears were now streaming down my cheeks. I break down in front of his door. Then it swings open, James.
"Ri, it doesn't have to be this way," he says, calmly. I look up at him, tears still streaming. "If you can handle seeing me taking care of another woman's baby, buying it stuff and going on trips, then we can still be together. I'm doing this for you, I don't want you to suffer."
"When did you find out?" I ask, ignoring everything he just said.
"The day the car crash happened." He sighs.
"You know what, James?" I shreik. "It's whatever, you're whatever! I don't care about Beth, the baby or you! So just go away! Outta my life, forever."

I walk on to the studio, another miserable day. I sigh. Emily is walking next to me.
"You need to get over him, Ri." She says.
"I am. In fact, I have been for a very long time." I demand, but we both know its not true. I have a huge fake smile plastered on my face and my eyes are on the ground. But I am trying to get over him. I think I've finally accepted that Beth and James are a couple. And that its normal for them to act all lovey dovey.
"Ri-" She starts, then quickly stops. I look at the direction she's looking at and flinch. There are James and Beth heavily making out. And it's, it's really gross actually. I wonder if that's how we made the others feel. Except we were worse, way worse.
"Em, just accept it. I have. They are a couple now. Jeth." I sigh, saying their shipname with disgust. I walk past them not even looking. They don't notice I'm there, because both their eyes are closed, but whatever. But i cant help but think, maybe he still does like me. I push that thought as far away as possible. It really hurts to know that James didn't care all along, that it was all fake. One little unborn baby boy, could come in the way of that.
Like I said, whatever. I walk in to studio A, put my bag in my cubby and start stretching.
"I promise, babe." I hear coming from the hallway.
"Really, Jamie. Pinky promise?" An annoying voice replied.
"Yeah, Beth. I promise. Right after practise, we can go baby shopping." James says, and I can her them kiss. I remember how James and I went baby shopping, I still have everything we bought. All in the attic.
He walks in.
"James, you're late. As usual." Emily says, muttering the last part.
"We talked about it, and as cocaptains we agree that you being late all the time is not acceptable." Michelle agrees sternly.
"Fine, I'll try," He smirks. "But no promises."
He's such a jerk.

So, Me and Beth got together. But not because we actually liked eachother, for the baby. But then slowly, my feelings for her started coming back. And now I really do like her. The feelings for Riley are definitely there. And I do miss her, alot. But now, at least, I like Beth too.
We found out we were having a boy a month ago, and we agreed on calling him Thomas, Tom for short. Today, we are supposed to go baby shopping after practise.
I see Riley looking at me with disgust so I smirk and walk over to her.
"Hey, babe." I smile, playfully pushing her into a hug. She pushes me away.
"One, don't call me that. Ever." She says with disgust. "Two, get away from me. And three, don't you have a girlfriend, Romeo?"
"Well, babe, I do. But, I wouldn't mind getting an upgrade." I smirk. Of course, I do still like her. A lot. But, I also like Beth and I love Thomas, so this is all joking to me.
"Oh really?" She raises an eyebrow. "Well, you might find one over there."
She pushes me to a corner.
"Dry." I say, walking back up to her. "You know I was only kidding."
"You always are, aren't you?" She mumbles, but I hear.
"What?" I ask.
"It was all a game to you, wasn't it?" She says, her voice becoming louder.
"A game?!" I say, just as loud. "A game?! You meant alot to me. You know that."
"It was not a game." I spat.
"Sure. You leave me, to deal with a miscarriage, alone. And you run off to another woman who is also pregnant." She tells, grabbing everyone's attention, especially mine. "How do you know she's pregnant with YOUR baby? How do you, huh? Oh wait, you don't! You just didn't wanna deal with the depressed me, that lost her baby."
She storms out of the room, Emily following her. I know I hurt her, but that wasn't my decision to make. I wasnt the one to decide. I wish I was. I do want her back. I just can't have her. And for her to think that I was only playing a game? That hurts. A lot. She was never a game. We were always real. She means the world to me.
