Promises (on hold)

Chantelle's POV

"Why are we even here?" Sabrina asked looking around at the costumes that were there for Halloween in the store we were at inside the mall.

"Cause we're having a Halloween party." Joleen answered.

"Really?" Sabrina looked at her excitedly.

"No." Joleen said making Sabrina suddenly frown. "We just had a party on Friday. We don't need another one."

"Yeah, plus people are going to be talking about what others did at the party like they always do." Sabrina rolled her eyes as I keep waiting for Caitlynn to show up. "So what are we doing?"

"We're waiting for Caitlynn." Joleen said just when Caitlynn entered the store and came over to us.

"Hey." She said and I pulled her in a hug.

"I haven't seen you in forever." I say and smile at her once I pull back.

"Yeah Cait, we haven't seen you." Joleen hugs her and then Sabrina after.

"Well I did go to the party on Friday with Colton." She said smiling.

"Did you drink?" Joleen and I ask at the same time.

"No." Caitlynn said.

"She can drink if she wants to you guys. She is about to turn 16 so I think it's fair." Sabrina comments, she doesn't yet now that Caitlynn is pregnant.

"I really can't drink Sabrina." Caitlynn tells her.

"Why?" She questions.

Caitlynn doesn't answer, instead she smiles looking down at her belly while rubbing it. Sabrina immediately gasps.

"No?" Caitlynn nods smiling up at her. "Oh my gosh! I'm going to be an aunt!" Sabrina hugs Caitlynn while Jo and I stand back smiling.

"I wonder who's going to be your boyfriend Jo." I say teasing her.

"Pfft." She scoffs. "I'm going to be single like a pringle."

"Pringles come with other pringles." I respond.

"Stop acting smart with me Ken." I smile at her looking innocent.

"Let's go." I hear Caitlynn call out and we head out the store and walk towards the food court.

"What do you want to eat, Cait?" Sabrina asks as we take a seat at a table. I sit beside Joleen and Sabrina sits across from with Caitlynn beside her.

"I really don't know, maybe some chicken. Oooo, how about Chick-fil-A?" She says and I swear I saw chicken in her eyes. I'm not lying.

"Okay, Jo and I will go and get the food. Ken, the usual?" I nod at Sabrina.

I smile at Caitlynn, "How are you and Colton?"

"We're fine. He's really excited about starting a family even though we're still young." She answers smiling.

"Have you told your parents? At least Jake or Mario?" I ask and her smile falls.

"I don't know how to tell them. It's hard having three males in your family who are way overprotective."

"I guess you're right, but you have to tell them sooner or later. The bump is going to show." I tell her just as Sabrina and Jo walk over with the food. A lot of food. "What did you guys order?" I give them a weird look.

"The whole menu." Joleen says glaring at Sabrina.

"Hey, in my defense the guy told me I looked cute and I just went crazy ordering." Sabrina sighed. "I guess I'm a sucker for cute guys." We grab our food and start eating.

"Guys, I have and idea." Sabrina says out of nowhere.

"What is this idea of yours my dear Sabrina." Joleen questions.

Sabrina turns to look at Caitlynn. "You haven't told your family yet?"

"No, why?" Caitlynn questions and Sabrina turns to look at Joleen and me.

"We should throw a family party, and obviously I'm family. And then like have her boyfriend there." She said pointing to Caitlynn. "And they both tell them, about like how she's pregnant. You know?"

I look at her thinking. That does sound like a good idea.

"Not bad, Sab." I tell her smiling.

"Thank goodness you liked it. Caitlynn?" We all turn to look at Caitlynn.

"I guess it's okay. I mean I do need to tell them. So yeah." She says assuring us with a smile.

"Okay, we are going to have the party this Saturday. So we can buy the stuff during the week. And we're doing it at my house." I tell them.

"Okey dokey." Joleen says before getting up and throwing away the trash.

"Anyways, changing the subject, what are Alex and your relationship status?" I ask Sabrina.

"Oh, uh I really don't know. We haven't talked about that." Sabrina said in a quiet voice.

"What's wrong Sab?" Joleen asks when she sits down. "Something must be wrong if you're speaking like that."

"Its cause," Sabrina looks down. " I've been avoiding his texts since yesterday morning. I really don't want to talk to him."

"Why?" I question her.

"To be honest, I don't want to settle down just yet. I don't want to be tied down into a relationship. I bet that's what he feels too. He's a player, Chantelle, obviously he wouldn't want to be tied down either."

"Its going to be okay Sabrina." Joleen says as Caitlynn gives her a hug.

"Come on, let's do some shopping to be guy-drama free." I tell them standing up.

"I don't have guy-drama." Joleen says and I roll my eyes.

"You will eventually." Sabrina says.

"Nope." Joleen responds walking away.

I know, it's been a long time since I updated but here it is. I know it's bummy and bad and really badly written. It's just a fuller chapter. Please stay with me. I'm trying to make the chapters better.

Thanks.
