you're cute ➳ brent rivera + brad simpson

CHAPTER 34

.Tears flowed out of my eyes and a wet patch formed on Ashley's shirt. She patted my back and hushed me.

"Is the baby just going to stay there?" Ashley asked but I continued crying.

"We can't actually do anything otherwise we'll harm the other foetus." Dr Hudson explained and I sobbed harder. I was going to have a dead baby inside of me for the next 4 months. How was I going to tell Brent?

I sat beside Brent's bed and watched him sleep. His chest raised and dropped at a steady pace.

"Tallulah I have to go now." Ashley whispered and I yawned.

"I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked wiping my eyes.

"Yeah. I'll bring some clothes for you in the morning." She said when she was at the door and I smiled. It was about 10 at night and my eyes felt heavy. I yawned and covered my mouth. As I looked at Brent I sniffled and rubbed his hand. My eyes started closing and before I knew it I was asleep.

The sunlight peeked through the blinds and I woke up. A pair of eyes were looking up at me and I stretched my arms outwards.

"Hey." I whispered, my voice still croaky.

"You're cute in the morning, you know." Brent smiled and I blushed.

"I am not." I argued and Brent touched my crimson cheeks.

"Why do you love me?" Brent asked. My eyes widened and he looked straight into them.

"Where do I start?" I said looking down. My cheeks burned and Brent lifted up my chin before kissing me.

"Well you can start where you first met me." Brent smirked and I exhaled.

"You were the first person to call me cute and you were my first kiss," I began and Brent smiled showing his teeth. His eyes creased at the sides and I blushed harder, "You were my first boyfriend and when you asked me to be your girlfriend you did it in the cutest way possible." I continued and put my hair in a high ponytail. Brent blushed- I haven't seen him do this in a long time - and held my hand. Brent sat up so his back rested on the head rest and I sat beside him on the bed.

"You don't know how much I love you Tallulah." He whispered as he stroked my cheek.

"And you don't know how much I love you. When you were in the car, I was so scared. I thought I'd lost you." I nuzzled my head into Brent's chest and he played with my hair.

"You're the best thing to ever happen to me." Brent whispered into my hair. The heat radiating from his chest warmed me up and I sighed.

"That's a lie Brent." He frowned and kissed me.

"No it isn't. Why don't you ever believe me when I give you compliments?" Brent frowned and I stated into his chocolate eyes.

"I just don't like letting my guard down. One minute someone's calling you pretty, the next they're calling you a slut." I spat and closed my eyes. Tears brimmed my eyelashes as I thought about the bullying that happened in my old secondary school. Brent's hand wiped my cheeks as I tasted one salty tear.

"Tallulah but you are pretty." Brent reminded me but I shook my head.

I let out a fake laugh so Brent would stop questioning me but it didn't work.

"Why are you so insecure?" He asked and I shrugged. He frowned and I rested my head in his chest again.

"Everyone's insecure Brent. Whether it's because of looks or their status, everyone is insecure in some way." I explained.

"Well I'm not insecure." Brent joked and I sighed.

"Yes you are Brent. You're always checking your hair and you always panic if it doesn't 'look right'. Can we please change the subject now?" I said and Brent moved his position.

"How are the twins?"
