Avery
"I'm pregnant".
Cameron pivots around and looks at me. Eyes wide, jaw dropped, and his skin pale. He looked like he had just seen a ghost.
"You're what?" He asks with his lips quivering.
"I'm pregnant". I repeat myself, still sitting on the counter, and watching Cameron's every move.
"Fuck Avery! Why did you have to tell me now?!" He yells, running his hands through his hair. "Are you fucking around with me? Is this an excuse to make me stay?"
"No Cameron. It's not. I'm two months pregnant. Remember the time when we were in the hotel? Or were you too drunk to even remember that?"
Cameron continues to stare at me like I was on some sort of drug.
"I'm not even kidding". I budge in, hopping off of the counter and opening up a drawer. I began rummaging through the cluttered mess, trying to find something.
As my hands came across the silky texture of the printed picture, I pulled it out and showed it to Cameron.
"See". I mumble, handing him the picture. It was an ultrasound picture of the fetus sitting inside of me. I went to the doctors a few weeks ago, and found out the news, but I've never brought it up to Cameron since.
Cameron studies the picture. Squinting his eyes as he examines it. "You're lying". He says, shaking his head and then lifts his head to look at me.
I shook my head. "I'm not lying Cameron".
He continues to shake his head. "You are! You're not pregnant, you're lying!"
The colour of his eyes darkened, and it soon became foreign. This wasn't the Cameron I knew two days ago.
"I'm not lying Cameron, stop excusing me!" I yell.
Cameron backs away, slowly shaking his head in disbelief.
"You know what?" Cameron asks, as he is now standing in the doorframe. "I wish you luck because I'm getting married and that's all that matters. If you want, you can come to the wedding, but you better not ruin it".
As he gives me one last glare, he turns away and storms out of my house.
