Till The End

Chapter Twenty : I'm Not Flu Sick

FOUR MONTHS LATER

ISSAC'S P.O.V

So far everything is going good. I thought college would be a disaster, an apocalypse, a wrecking ball. But it isn't. Alex has been acting funny all week and I just think it's the cold flu. My mother and father are in town so I'm going to go have lunch with them.

"So you good? Do you need anything because I won't be back until later."

"I'm fine Isaac. Thank you though."

"I'll call you when I'm leaving. Bye Alex."

She didn't reply back but I'm gonna give her her space.

I met my parents at this cafe two blocks from my school. It's so great to see them again.

"Mother, father!"

"Ah Isaac." My father greeted me.

"Isaac sweety, you look handsome. Please sit." My mother kisses my cheek as I sit down." Where's lovely Alex?"

"I think she's sick. So she stayed home."

"Ah, that's a shame." My father takes a sip and stares out at the sea.

I'm not sure if father is too fond of Alex since she isn't as rich as my exes. But for heaven sakes, I went to a public school!

"Wellll Arthur, since you and Isaac are going to play golf. I can stop by your apartment and visit Alex." My mother offers.

"Splendid. Let's go Isaac."

ALEX'S P.O.V

I was in the middle of my sleep when the freaking doorbell rung. Isaac has a key, but he alwaysss insist on somebody opening the door for him.

"Wtf Isaaaaac, you have a ke-"

It was Isaac's mom.

"Hello Mrs. McKinley!"

"Alex, hello. No I'm not Isaac haha, he's with his father. Isaac said you were um sick? I brought tea, cough drops, and Tylenol."

"Oh I'm not um , I mean omg thank youuuu, gosh your amazing!"

"Oh honey your very welcome."

"Here come in, I'll put in a movie."

I've known the McKinley since Sophomore year and I think of Isaacs mom like family. I don't think his dad likes me but idgaf. So I feel comfortable telling her this.

20 MINS LATER

We've been watching 21 jump street and I think it's a good time.

"Mrs. McKinley?"

"Alex?"

"Ha, um what would you do if I um."

"I don't like stuttering honey, just tell me."

"I'm not flu sick, I'm sick from being pregnant." I quickly turn away and hope for the best.

"Alex, I don't know what to say."

"You don't have to say anything, I just felt comfortable telling you."

"I'm very grateful, but does Isaac know?"

"No and pleaseeee don't say anything. I need to tell him myself."

"Won't say a word. Congratulations Alex!" She hugs me and smiles."Lets finish the movie okay?"

"Alex wake up, baby go to bed." I hear Isaac saying.

I wake up to a football game on but no Mrs. McKinley.

"Where's your mom?"

"She left with my father."

"Oh okay, did she say anything before she left?"

"No, why?"

"Nothing. Um I gonna go to bed."

I head to our bedroom and before I can lay down Isaac stops me.

"Babe, you've been sleeping all day! It's only 7:00, let's go to dinner or something?"

"I'm sorry but I don't feel good, all I can do is sleep. Now let me fucking go."

Isaac steps back and I can tell he's irritated.

"You've been so bitchy lately! Fuck. Fine go to sleep. I'm sleeping on the couch."

"Yeah well maybe it's because I'm pregnant Isaac!"

There I told him. Something I've been scared to do for 2 months. But all he does is stare at me.

"I'll be back." He says as I watch him walk out the door.
