Chapter 10
I was woken up later that night by someone rocking me.
"Chica come on, let's go upstairs to bed."
I groaned and pushed her away. I really didn't want to get up, let alone walk up stairs. I just wanted to sleep, and I was perfectly fine right where I was.
"Hailey. Come on."
I sighed and opened one eye looking at her.
"You're not gonna go away are you?"
She smiled and held out her hand. I sighed and got myself up. I obviously wasn't going to get any sleep down here. Lazily I made my way up to mine and Kian's room.
As I got closer to our bedroom door I heard Kian talking.
"....with Hailey." Is all I heard. My eyes widened a bit. What about me? I stayed silent outside the door, gently pressing my ear against it. I couldn't help it I'm a nosey person.
"She's pregnant with MY baby, are you crazy?.....yeah ok.....alright I'll talk to you later, love you."
Who the hell was he talking to? I waited a few minutes before opening the door. Kian looked up from his phone.
"Hey, there you are!" He said locking his phone, and putting it to the side. " I thought you were still asleep on the couch. I was going to come get you."
Sure you were. I just nodded in response, and climbed into bed covering up.
"Still tired I see. I'll let you sleep I'm gonna shower." He kissed my head before heading to our bathroom.
As I heard the shower start in the bathroom I felt the tears fill my eyes. I couldn't help, but to expect the worst. Thanks to my anxiety. I wiped the tears away knowing it wasn't good for the baby, and tried to sleep. Then I heard his phone buzz.
I couldn't ignore the curiosity shooting through my body. Sitting up in bed, I reached for his phone and unlocked it. The message was from his sister. I let go of a deep breath I didn't know I was holding, but just before I locked his phone he got another text.
This text was from a number that wasn't saved to his phone.
Unknown: Just remember what we discussed today. Don't do something you'll regret.

Sleepless nights are always the worst. You get out of bed the next morning feeling drained, and not wanting to interact with a single soul. Not even caffeine of any sort could help sometimes, and sadly today was one of those days.
I sighed throwing the covers off and forcing myself out of bed. My body was sore and heay. The energy I used to get up and use the bathroom was enough to make me want to sleep right there on the bathroom floor.
I cringed a little at the thought. Gross. Instead I used the little energy I had left to get back to the bed. The minute my butt touched the soft bed the bedroom door opened.
"Good morning Chica!!!" Kia's loud bubbly voice echoed through the room. "Girl let's go! We have a whole day of activities planned."
I groaned throwing myself back on the bed. Unless these activities involved Netflix, food, and sleep I wanted no part of it.
"Activities? You mean to tell me I actually need to get up?"
"I'm buying Starbucks for everyone who's coming."
Coffee. As soon as I heard "star" I sat up in the bed.
"If I agree to come what will be doing?"
"Girls Day! Kian just left, he said something about going to meet up with Liz, and Jc well he's gonna be watching Jayce for a while."
I sighed and stared at her. We both knew the outcome of this situation already.
"So in other words, 'Jc is spending the day with Jayce and giving you some alone time, but you don't want to be alone so you're dragging me out.' Which in that case means: there really is no option, and no matter what I need to get up." I raised an eyebrow at her waiting for her confirmation.
She simply giggled and walked out, stopping only once to tell me I had 15 minutes to gather myself. I loved her I really did, but in all honesty....the little bitch is SO spoiled she gets anything, and everything she wants.
Seeing as I had no other option I put on some music and got myself ready. Putting on my white sun dress, taking off the brown belt around the stomach due to my pregnancy, and a pair of sandals. Skipping my makeup today because if I even tried putting any on it'd look like a 5 year old did it.
I finished getting ready with twenty minutes left. Glancing in the mirror I smiled at my outfit. Considering how tired I was I looked pretty good. The last touch was my hair, instead of leaving it straight as planned, I pulled out my curling iron curling my hair. I smiled at the finished product, and grabbed my clutch putting my money, chapstick, and phone in it before heading downstairs.
When I reached the bottom of the steps I almost ran into Kia who was trying to get upstairs.
"Shit!" She fell down the few stairs she went up, and laid on the floor. I tried holding back my laugh, but couldn't. Kia laughed along with me before pulling herself up.
"Good?" She nodded and smiled.
"You look amazing!" I felt my cheeks heat up a bit. I opened my mouth to speak, but was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Were you expecting anyone?" I asked Kia. She shook her head.
"Neither is Jc. He's upstairs sleeping with the baby."
That was weird. Nobody was expecting anyone, and Kian wasn't even home so it wasn't him. I made my way over to the door, and slowly opened it.
I made eye contact with the person on the other side of the door, and my eyes widened.
What. The. Fuck.
