The door burst opened followed by Micah calling out to me frantically. I come in from the patio, I'd been swimming, and just drying off when he came in. My blue suit sticking to the curves of my body.
The frantic sound in his voice made my gut fall. I knew it was bad news. I could feel it all the way in my bones. It had to do with Mary. It had too. Things with Micah and me had been going really good lately. Sooner or later things would fall. It was that time.
Rushing onto the house, I said, "What is it?" Micah tie was loose, his hair all mushed up, the look in his eyes was scary. What did the bitch do to him now? When he reached me, his placed his hands on my arms, grip was tight, but it was serious. "What is it?" I asked again as I put my hand on his forearm. "Please tell me."
"Let's sit down."
"Okay..." Micah moved us over to our gray sofa and we sat down. I concentrated only on him. "What is it? Why are home early? Did something happen?" The questions just came out on their own. I guess my filter got turned off.
Taking a deep breath, Micah opened his mouth to speak, but closed it again, biting his lip. "We are going to have to hold off on our announcement."
My heart sank. The tears welled up in my eyes. My life on hold yet again. God, why is fate so fucking cruel. "Why?"
I could see that Micah did not want to tell me.
"Dammit spit it out"
Rip it off. It maybe painful as fuck but at least it's not being lied to and finding out the truth later. That's far worse.
"Mary is pregnant!" It came out as gentle as possible but it sure shocked the hell out of me.
Micah stared back at me equally surprised as if it was the first he'd heard. Hell, even said it aloud.
"I'm sorry." That was all he said to me.
The the panic set in as my breathing increased while my heart felt like it was going to pop out of my chest. I can either let this kick my ass or stand in front of it and tell my anxiety to fuck off. I choose the latter.
"Is it yours?" I tried to control my breathing and heart rate but it was slow going, but it came out more as attitude from me.
"Of course not!" Micah looked and sounded like he was going to be ill. "If you need me to prove it, I can do a DNA test. Whatever I have to do, I'll do it. I love you, Sophia. I wouldn't fuck up this for a one nighter with Mary. I said it was over, I meant it." Micah babbled on. I almost tuned him out but he deserved me to listen.
As soon as the studio gets wind of this, they will want to put it out there. We got to put our announcement out first regardless of what they do. I am sick and tired of waiting for them to let us do this. It is almost like they want fuck things up for us just to punish us for falling in love.
"I believe you, it's just its crazy."
"I know. I was shocked when she told me." Micah visibly relaxed by letting go of me and places his hands in his lap. "She actually believes the baby is mine. Sophia, she's really not right in the head. I don't know what to do."
"We leak our info,action right now." I held out my hand in front of him. "Give me your phone."
Micah reached into the inside pocket of his jacket and pulled out his iPhone, placing it in my hand. I sent a quick text to my buddy Brian. He was a good friend of my brothers, but he was also lesser know than any of my other friends.
Is your Instagram password and user name still the same?
Yeah, what for?
I wanna use it to post something like Micah and me if that's ok.
You're finally doing it. Go for it.
Great thanks bud!Quickly, I tapped the Instagram program, signed out of Micah's account, and signed into Brian's. There were pictures of his family, his friends, him by himself on vacation, at home, etc. No pictures of celebrities. Perfect to put the picture I want up.
Opening up a post, I clicked on the picture icon, and I went through each one, trying to find one picture that wasn't obviously taken by us. Found on. It looked like it was taken from a far. We were at the beach with our friends, the sand between our toes and we laughing and talking, and I was sitting in Micahs lap, his arms around me in an iron grip. Now that I think about it, Brian had taken this picture without our noticing.
"How about this?" I held up the phone.
Micah knew what I was doing. "I remember that day." His eyes brows wagged at me in the sexy way he has. It gets me going but not right now. I wasn't going to think about the sand at my back, Micah above me, kissing and nuzzling my neck, and pressing his erection at my hip.
I was sure my face was flush, it felt hot. I was hot. I wanted him. I glanced up at Micah like he was what I was craving. He was feeling the same, it was in his eyes.
"No!"
"Right!"
Ignoring my needs, I picked the picture, wrote a caption saying 'Omg! I was at the beach this weekend with some friends and saw Micah and Sophia from Star Crossed Lovers, looking much like Star Crossed Lovers. And no, this wasn't filming either. I did hashtags with our shipper name, our individual names, the title of the movie, and anything else that would get someone's attention. Then I posted it.
"We did it." It felt so good to get it out there. Soon everyone would know the truth. Of course we'd have to make it official soon.
"Now we wait." Micah wiggled his eyebrows at me again suggestively, I giggled, and threw,my around around him. I was going to give in those feelings right here. No one was going to stop us.
