Baby Steps (Z.M) Book One✔

"What did you just say?"

I choked on my own words, everyone's stares were applied on me and there I was defenseless against them. I felt the earth's oxygen vanish from my lungs, leaving me pail and disoriented.

Emma's glare made me worry, I stiffen like a statue, her big brown eyes some how became darker and tight. She had her fork in mide air but as soon as she received my unexpected comment, she slowly placed it down on her plate. She scoled, fiercely.

"Skylar, answer me" Emma insisted.

"Emma, I-" but there wasn't much I could say, she intimidated me to a point I had to urgently pee.

Crap!

"Emma, take it easy" it was Alex who spoke but Emma didn't loose eye contact with me.

"Skylar, don't make me repeat myself" Emma warned me and I felt so small that minute.

The pressure was too much to take, I felt my bladder about to erupt and right now was not the time to make such an embarrassing scene. There was only one thing I was capable of doing and that was making a run for it.

I rapidly scooted my chair back and my feet were already one foot after another through the hallway. Emma's accelerated voice calling after me but I managed to reach the bathroom and shut the door on time hearing a bang against it.

"Open this freaking door, right now!" My sister haulered from behind it.

"Can I have some privacy please?" I told her, doing my business but having my legs quiver like a leaf.

"Skylar!".

"Emma!"

"Babe! Hey, take it easy. You are going to break the door" Alex rushed over to where Emma aggressively asulted the door.

"That's a great idea" She sarcastically said and I could clearly see her devilish smirk.

"This isn't the right way to handle this situation. You are just scarring her" he told her.

"I am the terrified one! Don't make me look like the bad guy".

"Emma for the love of God, listen to Alex!" Drake pleaded.

"Skylar, you are making a scene here. Get your ass out here this instint!" she banged once again againts the door making me wiense.

"If you haven't noticed, you are the psychopath who is banging on the door!" I told her.

"Don't you think the most reasonable thing to do is to talk about it in the living toom like the mature adults we are?" Alex asked Emma but from behind the door I can clearly hear her tiring sigh followed by an irritated eye roll.

"Why are you guys so calm about this? The girl is pregnant! Skylar just admitted she is sexually active in the most insane and abruptly way! Yet I am the only one who gives a damn??".

"Of course we do!" it was Drake who spoke.

"I am as shocked as you are but banging on the door and yelling like a complete 5 year old pulling a tantrum, isn't necessary" Alex suggested, "She'll have to come out of there eventually, just let her do it herself and don't obligate her".

The only thing I was able to hear was Emma's dreadful silence as a response. Knowing my sister, I could telepathically see her give an indifferent stare, shaking her head in disbelief and flaring her nostrils. She was pissed. She wanted to kick some ass, bend me over on one knee and slap my pail butt cheeks as if punishment. Emma felt what my mother would of felt if it was my mother who would of had to take the responsibility and not her. It made me feel twice as guilty and simply feel devesated to disappoint her that way.
