The bad boy's baby

Chapter 8 - Trouble in Paradise

"Mum!" I cried down the phone once she eventually answered, "We've done something really stupid!" I heard muffled voices on the phone it must have been her talking to dad, "Where are you? What's happened?" She replied worried. I was silent I was panicking. I finally replied, "We had unprotected sex mum!" I sobbed. 

She let out a huge sigh, "Bella, your old enough to have intercourse without ringing me, why is this such a big deal, you did use protection didn't you?" I cried even harder, "No mum I just told you it was unprotected..." I heard her talking to dad. It was then my phone died. 

I ran upstairs crying, I fell asleep on the bed. I heard a loud knock on the front door. I turned over to see Luke also had dry tears on his face and he had been cuddling into me. I pulled his arm off me and grabbed my dressing gown. My parents were at the door. "What the fuck!" My mum screeched, "You hung up then turned your phone off! Isabella me and your farther have been worried sick!" I rolled my eyes remembering I fell asleep, "I'm sorry mum my phone died and I was so tired and fell asleep." 

She shook her head and invited herself in. She sat in the kitchen on the wooden chair and put her head in her hands, "I can't loose you Bella." I boiled the silver small kettle and collected together four mugs and filled them with the boiling water, I placed the cups of tea on the coasters on the wooden table. My mum glanced up at me, disappointment evident in her eyes. I felt awful. 

"Sir, I'm sorry we didn't mean it, I will be here for Bella no matter what," Luke apologized holding his mug tightly. It was then my mum's facial expressions changed, "Wait, when did you have the erm... sex," She asked. I looked at her embarrassed, "Last night." Her mood changed significantly, "Well what you worried about, you might not even be pregnant, it takes at least two weeks to show on a test..." I breathed a sigh of relief. I was probably just over reacting. 

"Well we will leave you two alone and I will call you later," my mum said as she hugged me goodbye. My dad shot Luke a weary smile before shaking his hand, I could tell he was pissed off. We seen my parents off and sat in the living room. "Nothing to worry about," Luke lied as he pulled the blanket over me. I stared at him unconvinced, "I wouldn't count on it."

I pulled the fur blanket up to my chin, I really hoped everything would be OK. I had drifted into a deep sleep when a loud angry voice woke me up, "No you listen to me!" I heard Luke shout, "You better sort this!" I looked around the room, I couldn't see him. I pulled my black dressing gown over my shoulders and tied it in a ribbon at the front. The shouting seemed to be coming from the kitchen. I flinched at the ice cold tiles as my skin touched them.

There was more than one voice in the kitchen so I didn't enter. "Luke, listen mate, this is your own doing, I can't help you anymore," I heard the other voice reply. I gasped as I seen a gun on the table, a white substance lying on my black granite kitchen counter. "But I NEED it!" Luke groaned. I couldn't believe this. He was taking drugs in my house and not only that, there was a gun and a random guy in my house!

I built up the courage to slide into the kitchen gently opening the door. "Isabella?" The voice questioned. I choked at the sight of the ghastly man. It was Jason. "What the fuck is he doing in my house!" I screamed at Luke. He looked at me a look of guilt flashed across his face. "And drugs and guns in my house! Both of you get the fuck out!" I screamed tears rolling down my face.

"Baby let me explain," Luke pleaded walking towards me. I shook my head in protest and turned to head out of the room. "Let me talk to her," Jason said winking to Luke. Luke grabbed hold of him and they disappeared out of the house into the garden. I was too scared to lock the door behind them so I ran upstairs.

I had left my phone in the living room and I was on the landing about to retrieve it when the sound of the door sliding open echoed through the house. Luke came thundering up the stairs, "Come down," He begged holding my arm. I reluctantly followed him not knowing who he was anymore. Who was this man? I thought to myself...

Jason stood proud, note in his hand about to snort something off of my counter. "I swear!" I screamed about to lunge at him. It was then a hand grabbed me, it was Luke's. "Give her it, get it over," He instructed Jason. I squealed thrashing about trying to escape his grip. I felt a sharp scratch and I knew exactly what was going on... He was using me to settle a debt with Jason.

"You bastard!" I slurred staring into Luke's eyes. He looked away, knowing fine well what he had done. I could still hear them, I was blindfolded but I couldn't use my arms to untie myself, my body was numb. "This is it Jason, you leave us alone after this. You will have what you wanted and you will give me what I wanted!" Luke boomed. Jason snorted, "Whatever, your the one letting this happen to her, she won't want to see you again.... but if she's satisfying I will make sure she doesn't remember it." He smirked. 

I felt him grab me and through me against the counter. It happened....

I don't think I can ever see or speak to him again...

I fell unconscious, I must have fell down the stairs because I was lying at the bottom of them and it sure felt like I had. The last thing I remember I was sitting at the table with mum and dad. 

I couldn't see Luke anywhere. "Luke?" I called out strolling across into the kitchen. There was an empty bottle of vodka with a small shot glass lying on the table. What's going on? Luke doesn't drink. I grabbed my phone and turned it on. I had five missed calls. Odd. They were from the hospital, had I missed a check up?

I looked out of the bay window holding the curtain back to reveal an empty drive way. My heart sank and I felt like being sick, I knew why the hospital had called. "Hello?" I questioned ringing the hospital. There was a silence before a high pitched female voice replied to me, "Miss Swan, we need you to come immediately it's Luke, he's in bad condition." My heart shattered into thousands of little pieces, he'd obviously crashed and by the look of the empty vodka bottle he wouldn't have put his seat belt on.

"Mum!" I sobbed down the phone, "You need to take me to hospital Luke has been involved in a crash!" I heard her grab her coat and keys, "I'm on my way stay calm." With that she hung up and I got myself ready, pain soaring through my body, both fear and physical pain, my wound had opened, must have been from when I fell down the stairs.

Mum opened the door and seen the blood seeping through my top, "You need to be seen too now!" She yelled helping me grab my things. I cried, "But Luke!" She scowled in disapproval, "You are my main priority now get in the car!" I shuffled along to the car grasping my side.

Her large 4x4 was not easy to climb into. Every move I made resulted in searing pain in my side. We eventually reached the hospital and mum helped me out, "Come on!" I was helped into a small rickety wheelchair by a man who noticed I was bleeding. I was rushed into the emergency room and taken into a small private room. My mum was squeezing my hand, I thought she was going to break it.

I heard the muffled voices of nurses rushing around me, I slowly started to close my eyes, "Keep them open!" My mum screamed. I shook my head, "I can't." It was very dark. I could no longer feel anything. Am I dead?

I opened my eyes slowly adjusting to the light around me, "Bella," Mum cried wiping her eyes. I sat up carefully, "What happened?" She kept hugging me telling me that the pain was so severe when they were trying to sort me I passed out. "Where's Luke?" I cried out holding my stomach. "He's a few rooms down, but he's in a bad state Isabella, it might not be wise to see him yet," She replied coldly. 

I nodded and lay back down on the bed, the old nurse came tottering in with a tray of mundane food and placed it on the bedside table, "Eat up," She cheerfully said as she turned to leave. I didn't feel like eating, I just wanted Luke.

I waited for everyone to leave and trudged into the bathroom, I needed to wash before I even thought of leaving the room.

I climbed in the shower and let the lukewarm water flow over my body. I finished washing and ensured my dressing was on correctly, I pulled my dark hair into a bun and put my gown back on, ensuring I put my knickers on to cover at least some of my bum. I was going to see Luke...
