Still Brian POV

No one spoke this time. Everyone was completely silent as they looked back and forth between Michelle and me. She was the only one smiling. Everyone else was in shock. The silence must've lasted for was felt like minutes before Anastasia spoke up in a very small voice.

"Congrats guys... I... I think I need to go lie down..." She trailed off in a weak and sad sounding voice before jumping up and speed walking away. I had tried to stop her, but she was too fast. Everyone was silent again before Valary spoke up.

"I'll go see if she's okay." Valary then rushed off upstairs too in Anastasia's footsteps.

"Guys why didn't you tell us sooner?" Zacky asked, looking between us. I was still frozen in rage, my eyes refusing to leave her as she looked around at them all with a proud devilish smirk.

"We wanted to surprise you!" Michelle gleamed and clapped her hands together. "And I wanted to surprise Brian." She added and pouted at me. I hadn't even realised Matt had been staring at the look on my face.

"Brian can I talk to you for a minute?" He said, snapping me out of my glare. I nodded and followed him all the way to the music room where there was no way they could hear us. "Right, explain you don't look too thrilled about dating Michelle..." Before he could even carry on, I interrupted.

"I'm not! I don't like her! I hate her!" I half yelled but tried not to let the others hear.

"Then why the hell is she saying you are and that she's pregnant if you don't like her!" Matt protested and began to pace angrily. "How can she be pregnant if you haven't gone near her!?"

"See I'm trying to figure that out to, it only happened last night and you can't tell that fast!" I exclaimed, realising Matt didn't know what happened last night...

"What? Last night? Brian you've got some fucking explaining to do!" Matt whisper-shouted.

"Alright, alright just calm down." I exhaled deeply then began. "When Zacky and Meaghan came home yesterday, Zacky asked us to leave so he and Meaghan could be alone. He lied to Meaghan telling her we were going on our own date and because we didn't want to screw up his night, Anastasia and I left. We had nowhere to go because everyone was out so we went to that bar, Hero's, that we used to hang out in. We stayed for hours, had a lot to drink then we were about to go home and we both went to the toilets. I was standing in there when Michelle comes in. I have no clue what's happening cause I'm so drunk and she starts kissing me and we end up in one of the cubicle and..."

"Woah okay you can stop there, I get the picture." Matt sighed. "And you didn't uh... use protection?" He asked and I shook my head. "Well shit. So what happened after... you know?"

"Well I left and Anastasia was waiting for me then we got a cab back where she fell asleep on me and she had no idea. She still doesn't know." I admitted and hung my head low. I hated myself right now. I hated Michelle. How could I let it happen?

"Alright I get it dude, but if she is pregnant, you can't just leave her." Matt told me quietly.

"I can't be with her. I don't want to be in the same room as her. Ever." I put bluntly. Matt was getting worked up again.

"But if you have a kid then you have to. You should work it out with her, you dared before right?" Matt said, trying to convince me but it wasn't working. All I could think about was Anastasia's blank face before she went upstairs, so pain in her eyes in contrast to when we had been out the night before and she had been laughing, when she was happy.

"Yeah we did but I can't forgive her, she got me into this mess, I'm not just gonna forget about it and start over with her!"

"Why? Why not Brian?" Matt taunted me, both of our voices rising gradually.

"Because I just..." I started but Matt was angry and was interrupting.

"C'mon! Give me a decent reason why you can't just give her some time to make up for it? Give her a second chance and live out your life?"

This tipped me off the edge. I didn't care anymore. I'd give him a bloody good reason I couldn't forgive the bitch.

"Because I'm in love with Anastasia!"

There was another pause of silence. Matt's jaw hung open for a second before the door to the music room we were in burst open and in poured Jimmy and Zacky.

"You what?!" Zacky yelled and Jimmy shut the door behind them, they had obviously been listening in.

"I said it. I said it, it's true and I don't care. I'm in love with Anastasia, from the moment she woke up in that hospital bed, hell when we found her again I found myself wondering what I'd do if she was dead. That's why I was so pissed when she didn't remember me or any of us. That's why I can't be with Michelle!" I exclaimed in a burst of fury, relieved to finally get it out and say it aloud.

"I knew it! I knew it!" Jimmy yelled and jumped up and down excitedly.

"Jim stop." Zacky said calmly. "Bri how can she even be pregnant or rather, know she's pregnant if it happened last night?"

"I have no idea! Ask her!" I retorted angrily.

"Well what are we meant to say to her? She lied." Matt pointed out. "Just come on." Matt said and then left the music room with the rest of us following. Michelle was still sitting in the living room, alone on her phone.

"Michelle. I told you and I've told them exactly what happened. We are not a fucking couple." I spat and scowled at her.

"Well we're not technically together yet but now we have a baby on the way..." She started, trying to sound so innocent but I quickly butted in.

"Now nothing. I don't want this. I don't want you. I don't love you." I said harshly.

"But you love your son or daughter." She sneered, batting her eyelashes and placing her hands gently on her stomach.

"I can't believe you'd do that Michelle." Matt frowned down on her with folded arms.

"I'm sorry I... I thought that's what Brian wanted." She said, trying to look sorry but it wasn't working on any of us.

"Michelle I think you should go home while we sort this out." Matt scorned her and threw the cars keys out of his pocket at her. She swiftly caught them and got up.

"Fine. Bye Syn." She hissed and winked at me, making me feel sick to the stomach. We heard the car start up then saw it pull off the drive before footsteps rushing downstairs.

"What's going on?" Val said as she appeared in the doorway. We sat her down and I explained to her everything I'd told the guys. She was equally disgusted with her own sister, confused as to why she'd do something so terrible.

"Shall I tell Ana?" She asked and her voice broke. She seemed really upset by this.

"Yeah just what she needs to know." I said and felt my heart sink, preparing for what she would think of me. Valary nodded and started to make her way back upstairs before Jimmy stopped her.

"Oh and Val, you can't tell Ana yet but Brian loves her." Jimmy teased but instead if looked shocked, Val just laughed and I knew exactly why.

"Oh, I already knew."
