Gerard's Little Sister (COMPLETED)

22. And It Begins

I must've been pregnant longer than I thought, because I woke up this morning to killer morning sickness. I threw up about 5 times while Frank held back my hair. Currently, I'm sitting on the couch with Frank while we cuddle and watch Finding Nemo.
"I'm so lucky," I said.
"Why so babe?" Frank asked.
"Because even though I'm pregnant with Andy's kid, you still love me,"
"How could I not. You're amazing. And anyway I already knew you guys had sex. I thought I was the dad,"
"So did I but then I remembered about Andy and I. I took him with me just in case," I said.
Frank put his hand on my tummy.
"I don't care if I'm not the biological father. This is my baby, and I'm going to raise it with you," I looked down at my tummy.
"I'm gonna get fat," I mumbled.
"Scarlett, stop it. You'll still be my beautiful princess no matter how you look. And you're gonna look pretty damn adorable with your baby bump." Frank told me.
"Can you make me some pizza?" I asked Frank.
He laughed. "Of course. I'd be honored," he said cheesily while bowing to me like I was an actual princess. I try not to think about how much of a freakin mess all of this is. When random people see that I'm pregnant, they'll think, "Aw, how sweet. The young couple is expecting their first baby." When the actual reality is that we're not a young couple, we're a super young couple, who's expecting a baby from a totally different father. What a fucking mess. I'm such a whore. A heartless, backstabbing whore who has such a sweet boyfriend that still won't leave me even after all the fucking mess. I'm a lucky whore. That's all I'll ever be. I walked onto the tour bus (slightly) innocent and left a mirror image of Serena van der Woodsen. Who the hell am I?
"Pizza's cooking. Wait, are you crying?" Frank said sincerely as he placed his hand on my shoulder. I sighed.
"Why do you love me?" I asked Frank, my eyes filled with tears.
"Why wouldn't I?" He said.
"Um, maybe because I went out with you while I had a boyfriend, then dumped him to be with you but then not so much later had sex and got pregnant with his kid. I'm a stupid whore, Frank. That's why you shouldn't love me,"
"Scarlett. Enough with that. Do you know what I see when I look at you? I see a beautiful, radiant, young girl who dated the wrong guy who even though you couldn't see it, treated you awfully, used you, knocked you up, and doesn't even give a shit about the child. I see a loving young woman who made a few mistakes. Maybe not small ones, but mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. And I love you no matter how much you say I shouldn't," Frank said. I cried tears, but this time happy ones. I wrapped my arms around Frank's waist and buried my face in his chest. He rubbed my back soothingly and kissed my head. I removed my face from his chest and looked at him.
"I love you, Frank Iero,"
"I love you, Scarlett Way,"
