Arranged Marriage To A Smart Jock ?!

Chapter 33- "The sooner the better"

Savannahs P.O.V

Oh yeah why don’t I just become her maid of honor? It’s not like she hasn’t done anything bad to me! Oh no shes always been the perfect little cousin I’ve always wished for!  Note the sarcasm?

“Look I know what’s happened and stuff, but we all need to get over that okay?” she asked me, easy for her to say, shes not the one that lost everything

“your also the only family I have left, well besides my parents but they don’t give a shit!” she said getting angry but rubbing her stomach, it seemed to have calmed her down

“Ashley, she doesn’t have to” josh told her, it was only meant for her to hear, but with my awesome hearing skills I was able to hear him. I knew there was still some sort of the old josh in him, and that made me smile. Ashley just gave him a dirty look

“So what do you say?” she asked giving me the puppy eyes, I was a sucker for those, uggh why do I have to be such a softy? Nina was right I'm a coward who can’t say no, uggh I'm ashamed

“uhh, well…I don’t know…you see, it’s just so…I don’t know…I wouldn’t be…a good maid of honor… umm i-I” I stuttered I mean I didn’t want to say no and seem like a bitch!

“Savannah spit it out! Please for the baby” she smiled sweetly at me. I looked over at josh and his head was down, I knew something was wrong; he looked so ashamed and hurt, that it just broke my heart into tiny pieces, but then I remember what they both did to me and the new savannah is back

“sorry but I can’t Ashley!” my face hard and angry, she looked at me surprised “look I’ve got to go, call me when the baby’s ready to come out” I said emotionless and started walking away to the car, but a hand stopped me

“Savannah I get that your mad, really I d-“

“Look Ashley I'm not going to pretend this doesn’t hurt anymore, you knew how much he meant to me, and you knew that we were in love! How could you do this to me? Better yet to both of us?” I asked, this is the first time I’ve really talked to her about my feelings “but because of what happened, now you know that you made two people terribly un- happy!” I knew that my words were harsh, but once I started talking I couldn’t seem to stop, Ashley had tears in her eyes but she wasn’t sobbing

“The ONLY reason I'm not fighting for him is because I wouldn’t be able to live with the guilt about your son living without a father! Trust I know how it feels and I wouldn’t wish it upon anyone to have to live without a father, not even my biggest enemy! I had to live with that for 14 years and thankfully my mom found a great man, but all of those years I had to suffer knowing that I wasn’t like everyone else! Growing up without a father, is the hardest thing anyone can live with, not knowing whether they were alive or not. Not having a dad who gets jealous at boyfriends or who over protect you! I never had that…UNTIL 3 YEARS AGO!”  I couldn’t stop crying, I hate remembering my dad, well my real dad.
