Broken

Chapter 16: I Love You

~Ari's POV~

It had been a week since I had been attacked, Wes had to leave for a week. I was so sad when he said he had to go, I understood though I wasn't getting in the way of family things. In the passed week I couldn't sleep, I could hardly eat I was an emotional wreck. 

I didn't leave Drew's house the whole time, the foster home had called me multiple times. When I finally called them back and explained everything it was weird but they actually understood my situation. 

They said the only reason why I was allowed to stay with the boys was because, I was turning eighteen in a week. I wasn't exactly excited for my birthday, everything that had been happening honestly I could care less about my birthday. 

Luckily today Wes was coming home, I was so excited for him to be coming back. I never knew I could miss someone as much as I missed him. We talked everyday on the phone, he kept apologizing about leaving me I kept telling him to stop. 

Wes's mom came over everyday to check on me, we got a long great. She was so sweet, she brought groceries, and we watched movies. We even talked about me being pregnant, she got me kind of excited for having him or her but I was still scared. 

I got out of bed at nine in the morning, as usual I woke up reliving the night I was raped. The dream was worse though, sometimes I had dreams the attacker stabbed my belly. After I was raped Wes and I went to the hospital. 

The doctor examined me and said everything was fine, and the baby was fine. We were both relieved, I was just glad the baby was okay. I put on my slippers and went to the bathroom, I got in the shower and washed my body. 

I hadn't taken a shower in three days I was so distraught and lonely I didn't bother to shower. When I get out I felt much better, I threw on a pair of sweats and one of Wes's hoodies. I put on some eyeliner and blew dry my hair. 

I walked down the stairs and made myself some cereal, I watched as the little flakes fell into the bowl. I poured milk in and took a bite, I only took a few bites and then I couldn't eat anymore. I felt sick, I ran to the bathroom just in time.

The doctor said I might get morning sickness and boy was he right. I had it every morning for the passed week, right when Wes left I started getting sick. I got up from the toilet and dragged myself over to the couch. 

I flipped on the tv and decided to watch a movie, I decided on "A Walk To Remember" sure it was a sad movie but I loved it. I began to cry when the girl told the guy she had cancer and didn't have very long to live. 

A few minutes later I heard a car door shut outside, then I heard the door being unlocked. A minute later I was Wes's face appear in the door, a huge grin spread across his face when he saw me. I jumped up from the couch and ran straight into his open arms. 

"I missed you so much," I said breaking away from him slightly. "I missed you too babe, how are you?" I didn't want to lie to him, I was doing horribly. "Honestly? I'm not doing great..I hardly eat and sleep..."

He pulled away from me too look into my eyes, "Hey let's get you something to eat and then take a nap?" I smiled at him, "Sure but one thing first." "What?" I grabbed him and pulled him into me, our lips crashed together. 

It was a sweet kiss I had been longing for since he left, it only lasted a minute when someone grabbed me from behind. "Other people here would like to see you Ari!" I laughed at Drew and gave him a hug, I then gave Keaton a hug. 

My boys were finally back, maybe now I could get some sleep. Wes made me some grilled cheese and soup, he made me eat the whole sandwich and half a bowl of soup. He washed my dishes and then grabbed my hand and pulled me upstairs.
