Chapter 17

~*~Chapter 17~*~

I was pacing back and forth in Cher's living room waiting for the boys to come. Ariana and Andrew had to stay over at the hospital since they were born prematurly. I was stressing out a little bit over that and the boys finding out. Who am I kidding!? I've been pacing back and forth for like half an hour.

"Andi, stop stressing. Everything's going to be fine." Cher said referring to the boys. She got up to me and grabbing my arm, trying to pull me down with her to sit on the couch.

"No, no it's not Cher. They're obviously going to hate me." I said shaking my head in my hands.

"You're over exaggering." She says as the door bell rings. "That's them. Stay here. I'll answer the door. Take deep breaths." She tells me. I nod. I stand up and smooth the wrinkles out of my black legging that I'm wearing. I'm also wearing a pink ruffled blouse and a grey, long sleeved cardigan, and walk into the dinning room.

"Cassandra!" The lads say running up to me crushing me into a group-bear hug.

"Lads, be careful. Don't strangle the life out of her. We have people to take care of." She scolds at them. They all mutter a 'sorry' and back away from.

"Hey lads." I shyly say waving at them.

"Hey Cassie! We missed you so much. Especially Niall here." Says Louis wiggling an eyebrow at Niall. Niall just blushes a bright red.

"I've missed you lads too." I say. Cher clears here throat signaling that it's time. "I have to tell you lads something, something important." I say in a serious tone.

"Can it wait? We have so many things we want to do with you." Says Harry pretty excitedly.

"I'm sorry, but it can't wait. I-I either do this now, or I won't have the guts to do it later." I say. I couldn't look at them. I looked everywhere else but them.

"Cassandra, you're scaring us. What's going on?" Zayn asks in a smoothing voice. My eyes started getting glossy. I sat down in one of the dinning chair and the boys followed my lead. I looked at Cher, she gave me an encouraging smile.

"I-I have to tell you guys something that I've been hiding from you guys." I say. I look at them. They stare back at me, waiting for me to continue. Liam, who is sitting on my left, put a hand on my shoulder, encouraging me to continue.

"It's alright, go on." He whispers into my ear. I nod.

"Go on Cassandra. If you're worried that we're going to judge you, then you're wrong." Zayn says in a gentle voice while reaching out, putting his hand over mine. I smile a sad smile.

"I know that I should've told you lads when I found out, but," I let a tear slip out of my eye. "I-I just could bring myself into doing it. Lads, I'm sorry." I say looking at them. They had questionable looks on their faces. "Lads, I recently had um... I have twins." I say. I look up again and they still have questionable looks.

"Twins, as in kids?" Asks Niall with a cold voice. I nod because I didn't trust my voice. I turn to look at him. He slammed his hands onto the table really loudly that everybody finches, and he stood up so suddenly that his chair fell over. I saw his eyes. They flashed hate, betrayal, hurt and another emotion I couldn't figure out. He then rushed out the front door.

"I told you Cher that this would happen!" I yelled at her and darted to my room. She called out to me telling me not to run or else I was going to hurt myself. I could care less right now.

Closing the bedroom door behind me. I leaned my back against the door and started sobbing. I put my hand over my mouth to try to muffle them but it didn't help at all. I slid down the door and brought my knees up to my chest. If that's the way Niall acted, how much different did the other lads act? I bet they acted the same. The boys clearly hate me now.

~Zayn

I was in shock. Did I just hear her right? Did Cassandra really say that she had kids now? And if she did, where's their dad?

"She wasn't lying, was she?" Louis asked Cher clearly as confuse as the rest of us.

"No, now can someone go check on Niall while I go check on Cassandra." Cher says running a hand through her short, brown hair, as she turning around, heading to where Cassandra ran to.

"I'll go." I volunteered. The boys nodded. Still trying to process what Cassandra just said. I got up from my chair and jogged out the door to catch up to Niall who was kicking the tires of van that we came in. "You alright Niall?" I asked putting a hand an his shoulder. He shook it of.

"How are you so calm Zayn?! Knowing that a girl that you practically call to be like another sister of your's just told you she was pregnant and had twins?!" He asked clearly pissed off. He through his hands up in the air in defeat. "How Zayn, how?" He asks in a calmer voice.

"You know what Niall? You made her think that you hate her! Now, do you know what she did after you ran out that door?" I asked him. He shook his head in disgust. He was shielding his real emotions from me. I could tell he was hurt he just didn't want to show it. "She ran into her room hurt, tears streaming down her face. And you know what? I bet you made her feel worst by how you walked out that flat without a care in the world. Now I suggest you get your sorry arse up and go ask for forgiveness." I scold at him.

"You know what Zayn? I don't care. If she actually care about me-us, she would of told us when she found out or before she had them, but you know what?" He said with an evil chuckle at the end. This wasn't the Niall I've known. He never hold a grudge before, so why is he starting now? "She didn't, so why would I care about her, o-or those basters?" He asks angrily.

"Niall, calm down. Stop being so selfish." He chuckled.

"Me? Selfish?" He chuckled again. "Clearly she has blinded you."

"What's going on with you today? First, you were so happy to finally see Cassandra and now you can't even stand being in the same room as her?" I asked clearly confused.

"Nothing, is wrong with me." He says. "Why did I do to her that she didn't trust me enough to tell me?" He asks in a more desperate way, making his back touch the van.

"Niall, you didn't let her explain. You just got up and left. Literally." I say. He runs his hand over his face.

"I know. I-I can't see her the same anymore." He said.

"What do you mean?"

"Zayn, I actually thought I had a chance with her. Now, s-she has somebody else's kids! I bet she loves him enough to have his kids." He was now near breaking down. His voice was cracking every now and then.

"You know, you could be right, but, you could also be wrong." I tell him.

"What do you mean?"

"Did you see her with a guy in there? Or here's a better one, have you ever heard her talk about a guy before? 'Cause I sure haven't." I told him. "Now, I'm going to go back in there," I point to the flat's door, "so, are you going to be alright here by yourself while me and the rest of the lads figure this out?" I ask him.

"Go ahead. I need to think. I'll wait in the van." He flatly states. I nod and go back inside.
