Loving my bff's brother was just the beginning of my troubles...

Chapter 14

I didn't go to school the next day.  I was way too tired to even move.  I just slept and dreamed and slept and dreamed.  Before I knew it, my dad was knocking on my door.

"Leomari?  Leomari?" I heard him say.

I rolled out of bed and walked over to the door and opened it.

"Wow.  You really must be tired.  Did you sleep in all day?" he asked.

I did not even know what time is was.  Did I sleep all day?  If I did that is not good.  I don't want to attrack my parents attention and shit.

"Um.  I don't know.  What time is it?" I asked.

"It's 4:37 pm." he said.

Damn ! I was sleeping all day.

"Yeah I think I did."

"Well the party starts at 7 so we will be leaving here at 6:30 sharp to be on time."

"Okay Dad."

He gave a kiss on the forehead and then walked down the hallway.

I went back to my bed and layed down on it.  Damn was I tired.  But I only had less than two hours to get dressed so I jumped up immediately.  I went to the shower and washed my hair and body.  Then I got out and dried off and plugged in my straightener.  I sat down at my mirror in my bra and underwear and did my makeup.  After that I ran back into the bathroom and straightened my hair.  I did not do it that often, but tonight seemed the time to do it.  After that I went and put on the dress Rache helped me pick out.  It was nice.  It was dark purple around the skirt and waist with a black belt with a flower on it, and a light, almost lavender, purple at the top.  It was fierce. 

By the time I was almost ready it was 6:25.  Perfect timing.  I put some of my hair up and some of it down. Then I put on my shoes and my clamp purse and went downstairs. 

"Beautiful." said my parents.

"Thank you."

We hopped in the car at exactly 6:31 and my dad was pissed.

"Great.  We're running late.  Let's hope there's still some parking spaces." he said.

My mom and I just bursted out in laughter from this.

(This is Mari's dress by the way)


When we arrived at the party, my dad was right, there was alot of people already there. 

"Okay you guys we are going to have to park around the corner, so I hope you have some comfortable shoes." he said.

"Ha...ha." said my mom.

I laughed and got out the car. My dad was not really going to make my mom and I walk across the parking lot.  We waited for my dad about five minutes before making our entrance into the building.  Walking up to the hall I began to get nervous on how I looked.   I hoped it was okay.   When we stepped in many people were greeting us and I spotted Rachelle and her family.  I left mine in a heart beat.  Rachelle saw me and started to squeel.

"Oh my god you look gorgeous.  I told you I knew what I was talking about." she said satisfied.

"Yeah yeah.  You were right."

She continued to smile.  Just then Josh walked over.

"Way to represent me tonight." he said.

"What?" I said.

"You looking so beautiful.  If everyone knew you were mine, they would probably hate me." he said chuckling.

I laughed and hit his arm.

"If that's a way in saying I look pretty than thanks." I said to him.

We all then decided to hang with other kids from our school and just have fun.  We didn't do anything too wild because our parents were there, until some kid said he booked a suite.  That's when things started getting intense.

After a ditch from all of our parents and five floors later up the elevator.  The liquor was everywhere.  There was bottles of everything you can imagine.  Not just beer, but the good stuff too.  The sad part about it was that I couldn't drink anything.  Too much alcohol could harm the baby so I didn't.  I was in the hallway trying to get a breeze from the hot room when a drunk Chelsea stumbled out into the hallway. Just what I needed.

"Hey!!!" she said to me.

"Um.  Hi."

"Why are you so uptight?  Are you too good to say hi to me?" she said slurring her words.

"Okay Chelsea.  You had too much to drink." I told her.

I tried to be a good person and take the cup away from her, but then she pushed me away from her.  My reaction was too quick and without thinking.  I grabbed my stomach immediately and craddled it, showing the belly I had under the dress.  Chelsea looked at me in shock.

"Are you pregnant!?" she said.

I looked up at her with pleading eyes.  There was no hiding it now.

"Chelsea.  I beg you.  Please..." I said.

"Oh my god!" she yelled.

"Shhhhhhhh!  Be quiet someone can hear you."

"Wow.  I bet Rachelle's getting a kick out of this.  She's going to be an auntie."

"Chelsea damn it don't."

Before I had time to say anything, kids started coming out of the room.

"What's happening?" Chelsea asked.

Rache came up to us.

"Someone called security so the adults wants us back down stairs."

"Damn!" Chelsea yelled.

Before I had time to say anything else to her she was gone in the crowd.  I followed Josh and Rache downstairs to the hall and sat down.  We enjoyed the rest of the night until I saw Chelsea again.  She wasn't sobering up at all.  The cup in her hand made it clear she was still drinking whatever was left from the party upstairs. 

"Excuse me." I said.

I got up and headed to where she was.  She was on the dance floor near the band, almost about to bump into the drummer's stand.

"Chelsea.  Are you okay?" I asked her.

"Yeah I'm fine.  Just partying it up!" She said.

I looked around and some people tended to notice her.

"Maybe you should calm down a bit."

"What?  Who are you to tell me to calm down?  OH wait that's right.  You are that pregnant chick." she said.

I started to turn pale again.

"Chelsea come with me."

"No!  I mite get pregnant too!" she yelled.

More people were noticing the situation.

"Oh my god.  Give me the cup!"

"No!  I don't have to listen to you.  But you should of listened when they said in school safe sex was great sex." she said.

It was that moment when I realized that Chelsea and I were no longer near the drummer's stand, but near the head singer's microfone . I looked around and everyone was staring.

"Don't have nothing to say now huh!?" Chelsea said." But don't get upset. Josh will help you out."

I looked around and some people began to laugh.  Other's began to mumble things to eachother. My greatest nightmare has came true.  I looked over to my table and Rachelle was looking at me with intense eyes.  They were filled with sadness, anger, betrayal, everything!  Josh was petrified.  He wasn't moving or anything.  He just sat there looking with his eyes open.  My parents were in embarrasment and dissappointment too.  I couldn't deal with this.  I started to cry and run as fast as I could.  I heard people calling out my name to come back, but I wasn't turning.  I started to run faster.  The wind was whispering through my hair and burned my face as the tears left their trail. 

"Mari!!!" yelled someone.

I could hear the steps behind me chasing me, but my feet continued to run.  I finally made it to the steps and was going down when something went wrong.  I felt a sharp pain in my stomach.  I immediately grabbed my stomach but lost balance from the running.  From that I had tripped and fell right on my face, and landed on the hard ground in front of the hall.

"Leomari!!!" I heard in a shriek.

"Mari!!!" I heard again.

I continued to hold my stomach and the tears came even more from now the pain. What was happening?
