Triangle

Chapter 8

I roll over in the bed and see Liam laying next to me. I rub his face and he opens one of his eyes. I smile and continue to rub his cheek. He eventually opens both of his eyes and turns , so that we are facing one another. "What a pleasant way to wake up," Liam says, kissing my forehead. "What do you wanna eat? Louis can make us breakfast," I say. I attempt to get up ,but Liam grabs my arm. "We need to talk about Lucas," he says, and I let out a sigh. "I don't want to talk about him or the situation, I just wanna forget it happened," I say. "Look at your fucking face," he says. I sit down on the bed and remove the hair from my face. "What happened?" Liams asks.

"Well, he invited me over yesterday and we were talking and I told him I might be pregnant. He looked upset and he got up from the sofa and went into the kitchen, so I followed him. I touched his shoulder and he turned around punched me," I say, touching my face. Liam moves my hand from my face and kisses it.

"I'm gonna fucking kill him," Liam says, standing up. He balls both his hands into fist. "I told you no. Let him be," I say, getting mad. "He fucking hit you Blake! What are you not understanding?" Liam asks. "Just leave it alone!" I yell and storm out of the room. He follows behind me and steps in front of me before I reach the steps. "Why do you want me to leave it alone?" he asks, grabbing my hand. I pull my hand away from him and attempt to go around him. He blocks me. "I just don't want to deal with it," I say, giving up in defeat. "Why? You can't let him get away with hitting you," he argues. "Looks like that's what's happening," I say.

"Someone is at the door for you Mrs. Kendrick," Louis says. I nod and follow behind him. I walk to the door and see a lawyer standing the doorway. "Goodmorning Mrs. Kendrick, i'm sorry to disturb you, but I have something for you," the lawyer says. "What is it?" I ask, observing his grey suit. He has light grey eyes and dark brown hair. His hair falls perfectly over his forehead and his smile is white. His teeth are shinning. "It's your divorce paper from your husband," he says, handing over the envelope. My heart stops and I stand still in one spot. "There are a few things we have to go over, may I come in?" the lawyer asks. I snap back and step aside, letting him in.

Liam comes downstairs and stops when he sees the lawyer. "He's here to discuss divorce things," I say, walking over to the table. "Ok, well i'm going to make a run and I'll call you. You want me to stay?" Liams asks. I shake my head no and he leaves.

"Kevin has left you half of his assets and the house. He has also left you the cars as well," he says, handing me a pen. "He just left me everything?" I ask, taking the pen from his hand. As I grab the pen, his finger grazes mine and I blush. I don't know why I blush, but I do and he smiles. "Yes, he did," he says, regaining his composure. "What's your name?" I ask, signing my name on the papers. "My name is Chace,"he says and holds his hand out. "My name is Blake Johnson," I say, shaking his hand. I hand him the divorce papers and smile. "Welcome to the single world," Chace says. "I think I'm gonna celebrate with a drink," I say. "I must be going now, but if you ever want to get to know each other, let me know," he says, giving me his card. I take it and smile.

I walk to the kitchen and sit at the table. "Margeret can you make a glass of wine? Any kind will be fine," I say, smiling. I was free from Kevin and his bullshit. "How does it feel?" Margeret asks. "I feel free," I say, taking a sip from the glass. She smiles and continues washing the dishes.

(2 hours later)

I put on my shoes and head downstairs. My phone starts ringing, so I decide to answer.

(Phone call)

Me: Hello?

Kelly: Where are you? I'm at the airport waiting.

Me: I'm leaving now. I got drunk and fell asleep.

Kelly: I can't wait til I have this baby , so I can drink. Hurry up.

Me: I'm coming.

                   (Phone call ends)

I get inside the limo and the driver closes the door. He runs around and gets into the car. He pulls off and about 30 minutes later pulls up to the airport. My sister is waiting outside by the double doors. All of a sudden there is a loud boom and my sister falls.

I get out the car and I hold onto her. I try to stand up but I fall and hit my head. Everything goes black.
