Matthew's POV

I've been without Hailey for about three weeks now. I'm staying in a hotel. She hasn't called, texted, or anything. I haven't bothered doing any of those things either.

Then I got a call.

"Matthew, I need you to take me to the Doctors office..."

Lazy. Why can't she take herself?

"Fine."

I got up, got my keys, and left the hotel.

"Wanna come?" Hailey asked in the parking lot of the hospital.

"No." I said.

"Okay..."

•••

-- 3 hours later --

What the fuck's taking so long?

Then I spotted Hailey.

Hailey walked in the car crying.

"Hailey?"

"I lost the baby." She whispered.

"What?.." I said.

Hallelujah! Now maybe I can leave her! She's gotten so clingy and immature lately. Ever since the last day of school.

"I lost the baby, Matthew."

"No, I heard you. Wanna go to a bar?"

"What? Fuck you. No." Hailey said and stormed out of the car.

Hailey's POV

Matthew just asked if we could go to a bar? Seriously?

I went back to the doctor's office and asked the nurse if she could call me a cab. I forgot my phone at the house.

The doctor came out of his office.

"Hailey! Thank God."

"Yes? What happened?"

"Okay, so... You didn't lose the baby. The tests were all wrong."

"What?"

•••

Instead of the nurse calling a cab, the doctor took me home.

"Thanks."

"No problem." He said and I got out of his car.

I wasn't able to drive because I went home with a stranger the other night, don't ask what happened: I don't know, and he took me home.

I went straight to the phone and called Matthew.

"Matthew? I'm still having the baby, the tests were wrong."

"Oh-----kay." Matthew said in between moans.

Great, now he's cheating on me.
