Vanessa's POV

My phone lights up with a message.

Ritaaa 🤘🏼- Hey.

To: Ritaaa 🤘🏼
Hey, what's up?

Ritaaa 🤘🏼- Iggy wants to come over and apologize to you.

To: Ritaaa 🤘🏼
Mani might shoot her.

Ritaaa 🤘🏼- Yup, figured you'd say that.
But if she didn't get shot at the hospital then she should be okay. 💯😂
Well can I give her your number?

To: Ritaaa 🤘🏼
Did you not understand what I just said?
My girlfriend is crazy. 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

Ritaaa 🤘🏼- Well-nevermind.

To: Ritaaa 🤘🏼
What?

Ritaaa 🤘🏼- Nothinggg.

To: Ritaaa 🤘🏼
Okay. 🤷🏼‍♀️
Just text me when she wants to come over and I'll ask.

Ritaaa 🤘🏼- Okay.

No One's POV

3 hours later, there's a knock on the door. "I'll get it," Camila says, walking over to open the door. "Hi,"

"Hi," The accented voice replies. "You aren't going to shoot me before I walk in, right?"

Everyone laughs.

"Just come in, I'll make sure she doesn't shoot you," Ally says.

"Are you sure?"

"Just come in woman," Lauren says.

"If I die I'm suing," She walks in and Normani's eyes immediately drift over to her. "Oh god you're here. Don't shoot me."

"You're lucky she wanted you here." Dinah chuckles.

"I really didn't know the effect I had on this entire situation until I started asking Rita questions on what she'd seen. Just to see how things would add up, I started asking Sammy her opinion on things and literally all it was the entire time was her throwing out every negative comment she could think of about you guys, but she wasn't in the wrong for anything," Iggy says.

"She never is. She thinks we've "brainwashed her" to believe she's wrong when she was wrong to begin with," Lauren says.

"She would not stop bringing up Normani or Ally. In her mind, you're wrong for saving Vanessa's life because she wanted to do it her way on her own time," Iggy says.

"I mean she's kind of fucked now," Lauren says.

"...Should I ask why?" Iggy asks.

"I'm pregnant," Normani says.

Iggy chokes on her own spit. "What?"

They all laugh, before Normani repeats it again. "I'm pregnant,"

"Maybe I didn't hear something right,"

"You heard everything right," Dinah says.

"What? How?" Iggy immediately asks Vanessa.
