Song: Swing life away; MGK, Kellin Quinn

"Danielle, what aren't you telling me?" I follow her out of the closet.

"I have nothing to hide, calm down." She fumed while plopping on the bed

"Are you pregnant?" I asked in a hushed whisper

"Why would you think that?" She asked while grabbing the book off of the night stand.

"Danielle I am not kidding with you." I saunter over to her and her gaze goes back to the book.

"My period is just late that's all. I'm not pregnant." She opens her book

"You need to take a pregnancy test Dani. It's better to know now than later." I pull her leg down

"Liam I am 100% sure that I'm not pregnant. I can't get pregnant. Now who's more annoying you or Mr. Darcy?" She scanned the page and I grabbed the book from her.

"You're period is late, you've been looking all pale and crap. How are you so sure?" I pin her arms down

"You used a condom, and I can't get pregnant. This novel is my life and you keep bending my pages." She whines

"Condoms aren't 100% effective, and you've read Pride and Prejudice along with Sense and Sensibility hundreds of times." I sit the book down and she lets out a deep sigh.

"Look Liam I can't have kids, I can't get pregnant. There is like a 2% chance of me getting pregnant." She murmured

"A doctor told you this?" I sat down in front of her. She didn't dare look my way.

"Yes, due to me being underweight from my eating disorders it has made it merely impossible for me to get pregnant. Also something about my uterus shape makes it hard for a fertilized egg to implant. This explains why I have irregular periods and I can't really ovulate. I'm not pregnant and it will never happen." She sort of snapped. She muttered sorry and sighed

"Why didn't you tell me?" I grabbed her hand

"That's just something I never told anyone before. Well besides Aidan, that's how I found out that I couldn't have kids. We thought I was pregnant and that's when I went to the doctor who told me to not set my hopes high. Aidan didn't believe it so he tried every possible way to get me pregnant. I was only 16 at the time. Ade was so hell bent on getting me pregnant just to prove those doctors wrong. I can remember the day his brother died and he just lashed out. He blamed me for not being able to have a baby. He would- - She stopped dead in her sentence and a sob came out. " I just don't think it's fair that people get abortions because they don't want the poor baby, and then you have people like me who would kill just to get pregnant. I won't ever get to experience that. I'm sorry for crying this was not my intention." I pulled her close to me and wiped her tears away softly.

"Shh- shh, it's okay we will get through this together. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do something." I stroke her cheek

"The man is a doctor, he's been studying it all of his life for crying out loud. It's his job to diagnose his patients." She pulled away from me

"Everyone makes mistakes, and I'm pretty sure he diagnosed you wrong. It wouldn't hurt to try." I stood up

"I'm not willing to try anymore." She grabs the book and began to scan the page.

"That's what you think." I walk into the closet and type in the code for my safe. I grab the metal box out of the safe and sit it on the shelf. I stuffed a lighter in my pocket along with a tension wrench. I pop open the metal box and take out my slick pocket knife. This better go well, if not I may just have to bomb the whole restaurant. I grab my suit jacket and put it on along with my shoes. Stepping out of the closet I began to run my fingers through my hair.
