"Melinda?"
I looked at her to see that she had a suitcase in her hands.
She looked up and sighed.
"Hey Ciara. Um, can I come in?"
I raised an eyebrow.
"Melinda. It-it's like 2' in the morning."
"I'll explain. Just can I please come in?"
I was skeptical but she also looked pretty desperate and it was raining..I didn't just wanna slam the door in her face.
"Come in." I said, letting her in.
She quickly walked in and sat down on the living room couch.
"Okay. I let you in. Can you explain why your at my house? How do you even remember where I live? You've been to my house once."
"You have a pretty big house. It's not hard to forget where it is plus it's closest place I could go from my house."
"What happened?"
"Um, my parents kicked me out." She said on the verge of tears.
"Wow. Why did you come here? You could've drove to another friend's house or called them to pick you up. Why here?"
"This was my last resort. All my friends turned fake so I can't exactly depend on them and my parents took my car keys."
"Wait...did you walk to my house with your bags?"
She slowly nodded.
"That's like 40 minutes!"
She sighed.
"I wasn't exactly planning on this.."
"Why were you kicked out of your parents house?"
"It's a really long story.."
"Uh, okay. Um, it's super late. You should get some rest and we'll clear this up in the morning."
"Your really letting me stay?"
"I already invited you in so I guess you can stay the night. Plus I kind of trust you....somewhat trust you."
She pulled me down and hugged me.
"Thank you so much."
I sighed and slightly moved away.
"No problem."
Her clothes were kind of wet from the rain so I gave her a change of clothes and got back in bed.
*Next Morning*
I woke up in Ethan's arms, and silently got out of his grip. I walked downstairs to see Melinda was awake.
"Hey."
"Hey." She sighed.
"Okay. We got our rest. Are you gonna tell me why you got kicked out of your parents house?"
She sighed and nodded. She was wearing an oversized sweatshirt that I had given her. She pulled it up to reveal a baby bump.
"Your pregnant!" I said, as my eyes widened.
She nodded as tears pricked her eyes.
"Yeah..that's why my parents kicked me out. They looked at me as a disappointment and they wouldn't have me under their roof."
"What about Cameron? I thought you guys were dating."
"He wants nothing to do with it." She sighed.
"Wow. Um, well.."
"It's fine. You don't have to respond just thanks for letting me stay here last night."
I nodded.
"I'll be right back."
I walked upstairs to see that Ethan was still sleeping. I accidentally hit my dresser which was enough to wake him up.
He groaned.
"When did you get up?"
I smiled.
"I don't know like 20 minutes ago."
There was some noises downstairs and Ethan sat up.
"Did you hear that?"
"Yeah."
"It's only us right?"
"Nope. Melinda's downstairs."
"Woah! Like...the Melinda we both know?"
"The Melinda you slept with. That Melinda." I said, standing up.
He rolled his eyes and sighed.
"What is she doing here? When did she even get here?"
"Last night. She needed a place to stay. Her parents kicked her out, I couldn't just close the door in her face." I said, walking downstairs as he trailed behind me.
Ethan's P.O.V.
Me and Ciara both walked into the kitchen to see her cooking breakfast.
She looked up and her eyes widened as she saw me.
"I didn't know Ethan was here.."
Ciara nodded.
"Yeah. He spent the night."
She sighed and changed the topic.
"Well I didn't mean to wake you guys. I just wanted to make breakfast for you, as a small thanks for letting me crash here. My aunt is picking me up later, so I'll be out of your hair." She smiled.
Ciara nodded.
"Well, I'll be right back. I'm gonna go change."
She left me with Melinda in an awkward silence.
"So.." I said motioning towards here stomach. "Is it Cameron's?"
She looked up at me and shook her head.
"No."
I raised an eyebrow.
"Well, whoever it is. I wish you guys the best." I said, turning to go back upstairs.
"Wait." She said, pulling me back.
"What?"
"I need to tell you something..."
I raised an eyebrow again.
"What?"
She took a deep breath and sighed.
"I only slept with one person in my entire life and it was about 4 months ago.."
"Good to know." I said.
I was about to walk away again, but she pulled me back again.
"That person was you Ethan."
My eyes widened as I looked down at her stomach.
"What are you trying to say?"
"Ethan...You are the father of this baby..."
