Wake Up Call (English) #Wattys2016

Let me tell you something

Brian or Marshall's ... Oh my God...

I have no idea what to do! I have to say it to someone, somebody who would understand and help me!! I stared at my phone, maybe for the 1000th time, when I finally took the choice. I have to tell it to someone...

Marshall ... But what if he get's mad at me for hanging up on him the way that I did? I swallowed hard, no way in hell ... Marshall deserve to know what's happening to me, at least after what happened with the phone call... I can't let him go around wondering what's happening ... He's my best friend ... In addition to that he is my boyfriend, there is a 50% chance that it is his child ... I took a deep breath and got up from the bed, got dressed and brushed my teeth while I looked into the mirror.

I quickly got finished and got into the car, I drove to the Rehab and took a few deep breaths before I stepped out of the car.

Here goes nothing ...

I walked in through the door and over to the counter and she just nodded to me, I walked down the hall with a growing lump in my throat until I finally got to room 314. I bit my lower lip and knocked on the door gently.

"What!" I heard him answer, fuck he's in a bad mood ...

"Ehrm ... It's me, Marshall ..." The door opened quickly, I looked up at him and into his blue eyes and all my panic vanished as soon as he looked back into my eyes. Every thought disappeared and I relaxed again.

"Alex ..." He said and pulled me up to him with big eyes. "Are you okay ??" I closed my eyes and hugged him while I squeezed my eyes tight together.

"You'll love me no matter what right? You won't leave me, will you ??" My voice burst at the end, he dropped the hug carefully to meet my gaze. I opened my eyes and he saw the fear I had of him getting  mad at me and straightened up. He got big eyes.

"What the hell, Alex. What drugs are you on to even believe I'd ever do that to you ??" He said with a joking tone, it was obvious that he was trying to get me in a better mood with his response. I looked down at my hands, he coughed to get my attention again. I looked up into his blue eyes. "Did I leave you when you told me you were getting married?" I shook my head carefully. "Did I leave you when you told me in 6th grade that I was a comic book-loser?" I laughed briefly and shook my head. "And how about this one, Alex ..." He looked deeply into my eyes and took the necklace I had around my neck in his hand, I had it around my neck at all times, which I received from him the day I moved from Detroit ... "Did I leave you when you moved to New York? No, cause I've always been by your side ... And I'll always love you, no matter what. I've loved you since I was 17, I'm 35 now and look who I'm dating ..." I smiled to myself and looked down at the ground, he put his thumb under my chin and made me look at him again. "I've never given up on you, I've always loved you and I still do ..." He smiled at me soothingly.

"But--"

"No buts. I love you, I won't leave you no matter what." I felt a tear push and smiled at him as he wiped my tears gently with his palm.

"You really know what to say, don't you ..." I giggled and sniffled a little, he chuckled softly and looked at me with a soft gaze.

"I know what to say when I'm with you ..." I smiled and pulled him gently against me again, laid my head against his chest and bit myself in my lower lip. He put his arms around me protectively while he kissed the top of my head.

"Let me tell you something ..." I said quietly and enjoyed the feeling of being in his protective arms.

"I'm here ..." he murmured into my hair, I felt his lips brush across my forehead when I looked up at him, he looked down at me with a supportive glance, I looked him in the eye.

"You promise?" I said softly.

"Promise what?" He said softly.

"Do you promise that you'll be here for me ..." I laid my head against his chest again.

"Always ..." I took a deep breath.

"Okay ... Please don't be mad at me ..." I squealed.

"Shh ... Why would I be mad at you, baby? What's going on in that little head of yours ..." I smiled briefly before I sighed to myself and closed my eyes.

"I'm not 100% sure ... It's a 50/50 chance here, I know that ... Cause I've only been with two ..." I mumbled, he didn't say anything and continued to kiss my head soothingly , allowing me to take the time I needed. When I still didn't say anything, he looked down at me quickly.

"You can do it, come on ... You can tell me anything ..." He smiled lightly as he kissed the top of my head again and he stroked my back. I let go around him and turned back against him while I brought my fingers through my hair, he's going to get mad ... I know he's going to get mad !! Okay ... I'm just gonna say it really fast! Just get it out and run! "Alex ..?" He said softly behind me and I felt his hands lie on my hips from behind me, he leaned his head on my shoulder. "Tell me, what's wrong?" I swallowed hard and closed my eyes.

"I'm pregnant." I said, and tears flowed down my cheeks when I felt his hands fall off my hips and he stood up properly. I turned around and looked at him, he had big eyes and stared into the wall in front of him with a pensive gaze. He's mad! He's mad!! "I'm sorry, I'll go ... I'm so sorry, Marshall ..." I said quickly and walked passed him to retrieve my bag on his bed, he grabbed my hand as I walked past him again to exit. I swallowed hard, don't yell at me... I won't handle it ...

"I'm not leaving you, so you ain't leaving me ..." he said with a little smile, I turned to him and looked at him with big eyes. He smiled briefly before he sighed. "It's either mine or Brian's, isn't it?" I couldn't get a word out, I just waited for him to explode. He nodded and pulled me against him again, he hugged my waist as he looked into my eyes. "No matter who's child it is ... I won't leave you ... I promise ..." He swallowed hard and looked at his bag. "You have no idea how much you mean to me, Alex, I ain't lying when I say I'll be by your side forever ..." He let go around me and walked over to his bag.

"What are you doing?" I muttered, I didn't know what to say ... I had thought so wrong of him...

"Something I was supposed to do 2 years ago ... " He searched through his bag.

"2 Years ago? What ...?" I sniffed briefly and looked at him questioningly as he picked up something from the bag with his back to me, I couldn't see what he was holding.

"I never go anywhere without this ..." He laughed briefly and looked down at what he had in his hand. "Never left this for 2 years, just been right there in my pocket or something ... I've never gone anywhere without it ... And now, I hope you won't go anywhere without it ... Turn around." I looked at him quizzically.

"You're scaring me ..." I giggled nervously and turned around as he said, I looked into the door. Hello door, we meet again!

"Believe me, I'm more scared than you right now ..." He was closer, but his voice came from the floor ..? He isn't that small? "Turn around ..." I turned around and got big eyes when I looked down at a small blue box with a sparkling ring being held towards me. I looked at Marshall with big eyes. "I'm never leaving your side, I don't have words to describe how I feel about you ... You're the one girl that never left my side, the one girl I've loved unconditionally since I was a teenager ..." He looked into my eyes. "I love you to bits, Whitegirl ..." I smiled through my tears. "Will you make me the happiest man alive ... And marry me?" I smiled and sobbed, I nodded. 

"Yes ... Yes ... Oh God, yes ..." I smiled, he smiled with big eyes and slowly stood up, he took the ring out of the box and grabbed my hand. He put the ring on my finger with a soft smile and looked up at me. "I love you so much, Marshall ..." I pulled him against me in a kiss, a happy kiss. All my problems were forgotten ... I love him so much ...

"See, I'm never leaving your side ..." He smiled, I giggled and pulled him against me again.

"I love you ..." I laughed tearfully.

"I love you more ..." He smiled back as he pulled me up to him in another kiss.
