Learn To Love Again - Nathan Sykes Love Story

Chapter 22 - Keeping Secrets

*4 months later* 

Charlotte's P.O.V

I haven't talked to any of the guys. They finished filming everything. They are still on LA, I think.

All of them have tried to talk to me but I just keep avoiding them.

I don't want to, to be honest. But Kate told me not to have any kind of contact with them, or else they will hurt my family or even one of the boys.

I tried to go to college but I couldn't because the  first semester already started and its about to end.

So I'm actually working in a store along with my cousin, Angela.

I don't have to but I've been taught to work, to do something productive with my life.

And that's what I'm doing.

I also moved with her into her apartment.

Oh I almost forgot to tell you, I'm pregnant.

I found out the week I came back to London.

Yes, my mom knows. 

Only my mom and Angela knows.

I know I have to tell Nathan, I know he has the right to know. But I just can't.

Not just because he cheated. 

I have a lot of reasons actually.

I told my mom that I wasn't ready to tell him.

I don't know how long that excuse will work.

I need to think about something else.

- Right now I'm going to the groceries with Angela.

She's like the sister I never had.

She moved two years ago but now she's back.

"So how are you feeling?" She asked, glancing at me and then at the road again.

"I'm good. I have an appointment with the doctor next week." I said placing a hand on my stomach. "You're coming with me, right?" I asked.

She's been with me at all the doctor's appointments along with my mom.

"Of course silly! You know I wouldn't miss one." She laughed and so did I.

We arrived to the market.

I took off the seat belt and walked out the car.

"I'll go get all the fruits." Angela said while pushing the shopping cart.

"Okay. I'll go to the food aisle." I said and she rolled her eyes playfully.

"What!? I'm a pregnant woman! You know I eat for two now." I laughed and walked away.

I was grabbing a lot of stuff.

Donuts, chips, candies and what not.

I went over where Angela was and placed all the stuff in the cart.

"Can you go get the soup cans, please?" She asked and I nodded.

I stared walking, looking for that aisle.

I wasn't looking and I accidentally bumped into someone.

"Oh, sorry I-"

"Charlotte?"

I froze.

I wasn't able to look up.

What do I do? Ignore him and walk away?
