Home Wrecker {A.F.I}

Chapter 30

Alexandria

I walked back in to Ashton's backyard. When the gate closed, the three guys looked up at me, "where's Luke?" Cal asked
"Went home," I shrugged, "he wasn't feeling good,"
"Did he tell you what happened?" Michael asked
"Yeah, he did," I told them, "can someone tell me who the fuck this Asparagus chick is?" I honestly couldn't pronounce her name. Luke told me once, when I was talking to him, but Briella had never mentioned her name to me. Not even when she originally told me about it
"Some chick that's obsessed with Luke," Ash said, "and she's tried getting in between him and Briella for a while now,"
"Yeah she told me, back in like September," I nodded, "but I wasn't aware that she was going out with Luke,"

The guys left later that afternoon, leaving just Ash and I to ourselves. It was great to see them, but I was grateful when they left. I really just wanted more alone time with Ashton; so we could get ourselves back on track.

We were currently watching the latest season of Supernatural, when my phone vibrated from Ashton's bedside table, "can you get that for me?" I asked. He didn't say anything, he got my phone and handed it to me, "thanks," I said. I looked at the screen and it was a text from Elle.

From Elle: hey, I just went to your place and you're not at home. I need to talk to you

To Elle: I'm in Sydney with Ash, what's up?

From Elle: can I call you?

I didn't reply, I decided to call her instead, "what's up?" Ash asked me
"Elle wants to talk to me, I'm gonna take this in the spare room," I told him
"Okay, is she okay?"
"I don't know, but I'll let you know," I gave him a kiss on the cheek and walked to the spare room, "I'm sorry," Elle said when she answered, "I don't know who else I can call,"
"What's up?" I asked, "is everything okay?"
"Luke and I broke up, on Friday,"
"I know, I just saw him,"
"So he's back in Sydney?"
"Yeah," I said, "are you okay? He told me what happened,"
"Not really, but that's not why I'm calling,"
"What's wrong?"
"I'm pregnant,"
"What the fuck!" I screamed, I was in complete shock, I never thought that this would have happened especially now, "it's Luke's right?" I asked, hoping it was. I hadn't seen her have any guys over except for Luke, but then there was that time I went to Sydney for a week
"Yeah, it couldn't be anyone else's," she said as if it was obvious, which it was
"How far along are you?" I asked
"About two months," she sighed, "it would've been the start of October, just after I saw all that stuff about Arzaylea,"
"What are you gonna do?" I asked, I was concerned for her, she worked like three jobs, all three of which paid completely crap
"I don't know Lex,"
"You need to tell Luke," I said, it was his child after all and he had a right to know
"I can't even bring myself to text him, let alone call him,"
"Elle, he needs to know. Even if you decide not to keep it,"
"I know, but this could ruin everything he's worked so hard for," she said, "and Liz will freak,"
"You don't know that," I said, "when did you find out?"
"Friday morning, I felt really sick so work sent me to go and see a doctor, because I'd been feeling shit for the last couple of weeks,"
"Did Luke have any idea?"
"He knew I wasn't feeling well, I had my suspicions, but I thought it was just stress from working retail at Christmas and stuff," she explained. I was about to say something else, when Ashton walked into the spare room
"I have to go," I told her, I'd been on the phone to her for fifteen minutes
"Yeah, same, I have to go work at the bar anyways,"
"Is that safe?" I asked her
"Yeah, I'm only two months along,"
"Okay, be safe, text or call if you need anything okay?"
"I will, just do me a favour, don't tell Ash, he'll tell Luke,"
"Elle, you have my word, I won't say anything, just please tell Luke, before the media get hold of it,"
"Okay, talk soon," she said and hung up the phone.
