Angie and Lizzie short stories

You can't tell him

Angelique paced back and fourth in the bathroom, she checked the time and the five minutes were over. She took a breath and walked over to the vanity and picked up the stick.

"Oh my god" her hand covered her mouth and she placed the stick down, I smile formed on her face as she looked down at it, but it quickly changed into a concerned look. "Shit" she said under her breath.

Elizabeth was in the living room watching TV, loud banging from came from the door and she got up to answer it.

"Angelique? What the hell are you doing here?" She asked
"Is Barnabas home?"
"No he's not I'm afraid, no ones home"
"Oh good" Angelique said pushing past Lizzie
"So? What are you doing here?"
"I um I, can I have some water please?" She asked not really knowing what else to say
"Um yeah okay?" Lizzie said confused

Lizzie came back with the glass of water but Angelique was gone, she sighed and rolled her eyes thinking that she had left but she heard the bathroom door slam shut, she made her way to the bathroom and saw Angelique leaning over the bowl.

"Are toy pregnant?" She asked, Angelique turned around and nodded with tears. "Hey, why are you sad?" Lizzie asked placing the cup of water on the vanity and wetting a cloth then walking over to Angie and wiping her face.  "A baby is a blessing"

"I'm not sad I'm pregnant Lizzie, I'm actually really excited" she said
"Then why the tears?"
"Because it's Barnabas" Angie told her
"Oh"
"You can't tell him Lizzie, if he finds out he will either tell me to get rid of it or when it's born he will keep it and tell me to never go near it and I don't want to lose it, I've always wanted a baby and if he knows I might not be able to have it" more tears fell and Liz wiped them away with her thumb. She smiled at the blonde and handed her the water. "Thank you" Angie smiled
"You're welcome"
"Lizzie?"
"Yeah?"
"When the baby is born and I need help with you please help me? I don't think I will be able to always do it alone, also can you come with me to the doctors appointments and be there when it's born" Angie asked not looking at Liz scared of how she will react.
"Of course I will Angie, I would love that" she smiled taking Angelique into her arms and singing quietly.
"I miss that"
"Miss what?"
"You singing to me and holding me" Liz kissed Angelique on her head and continued to sing.
