Daddy ; Harry Styles

Chapter 9

Regret? 

I still was unsure if I was or am supposed to regret last night. Yes, a lot of alcohol was in my system but it didn't change the fact that I made a decision. A decision that lead to cheating on my boyfriend, or ex, doesn't really matter now, does it? My head was spinning but yet, I didn't force myself out of bed for some pills or water. I simply stared at the ceiling, processing the fact that I slept with his boss.

Although, I know what I did was wrong, very wrong. Even if I don't feel bad now, when it comes to telling Nathan, I'm going to feel terrible. I never was a cheater until now. Maybe I did overreact last night. There really wasn't a reason for that girl to be sitting on his lap, only way that could be if Nathan let her.

Marissa interrupted my thinking as she barged into my room with her loud ass. "Hey babes, how did last night go?" She sat at the edge of my bed, raising an eyebrow at me. 

I sighed. Do I want to tell her the truth of last nights events? She is my best friend after all and she would find out some other way, better to hear it from me then. I prepared myself mentally for what I was about to tell her.

"Okay, now I'm really interested." She said, probably realizing that I was taking too long to answer her.

"Marissa, I'm pregnant."

Her eyes widened and she stood to her feet so fast, it was funny. She began to pace around the room, one hand on her waist and the other rubbing her forehead. 

"How the fuc- no. Why the fu- no. You're fucking stupid! Do you realize what is gonna happen? You're gonna be Nathan's baby momma! I hate him! Charlotte, I'm not ready for a baby. I gave you so many condoms, why didn't you use any?! Oh my god, I'm gonna throw up." She yelled at me, not pausing to catch her breath.

I burst out laughing, holding onto my stomach. My hyena laugh came out because of how hard I was laughing. Not only did she believe it, but she gave me the reaction I was expecting. 

"I'm not pregnant. How dumb do you think I am? Wait scratch that, I did something pretty dumb last night."

She glared at me, throwing a pillow at me. "Not funny, I really believed you."

"I know." I laughed.

"So tell me, what bad thing did you do?" 

"Okay, I don't want you to think bad of me after I say this..." 

"Charlotte I swear if you don't tell me right now I'm gonn-"

"I cheated on Nathan." I blurted.

Marissa would never judge me for anything, she always tells me the truth even when I don't want to hear it. She's an open-minded person so maybe that's why I'm scared to hear what she's gonna say.

She opened her mouth as if she was gonna say something but quickly closed it. Fuck. I needed her to say something because this silent thinking of hers is making me nervous for no reason. 

"Wow, okay. So, um- what guy did you kiss?" 

Oh no. She has no idea. 

"Marissa, I had sex with someone." 

She stood up from the bed. Again.

"Charlotte, I'm so lost right now. You love that jackass! You better not be joking again." She crossed her arms around her chest, giving me a 'I'm dissapointed in you' look. 

Marissa has always been against cheating. Her dad cheated on her mom multiple times, which left a bad scar in her childhood. She also got cheated on before with a guy she was crazy for. It's why she's so protective of her self and even me.
