Marli's POV

Realizing what I did, I rushed out of the room. I grabbed some clothes and ran to Saffron's house. I went down the elevator and ran 5 minutes down the street into her building. I scrambled through my keys to find the one to open her apartment. Finally, I was in and I was searching for her. I found her sitting on the edge of her bed, editing. 

S- "Hey girl, you look like you've seen a ghost"

M- "Saffron, I need help"

S- "yeah you do, did you run here?"

M- "Yeah"

S- "Why was there a mysterious guy in your apartment you needed to get away from?"

I blushed and looked down in guilt. 

S- "OH. MY. GOD. MARLI. SPILL"

M- "It was Jack"

S- "Jack as in your soulmate Jack?"

M- "I guess"

S- "What happened? I thought you wanted to see him?"

M- "partimarlicameoutandheofferedtotakemehomeandimissedhimandweslepttogether..."

S- "MARLI ROSE PAUL"

M- "I know I messed up"

S- "No you didn't, this is amazing, my ship is sailing once again"

M- "Saff you don't get it, we shouldn't reconnect because I was drunk and he needed to help"

S- "No, I understand, just stay here until tomorrow, send him a text though"

I nodded and took my phone out of my pocket.

Marli❤

Jack, I'm sorry, we weren't supposed to see each other like this, I'll talk to you later... I love you x

Hopefully he isn't mad at me. I showed Saffron and she nodded and hugged me. 

S- "Hey, I'll tell you what we're going to do, we're going to order food and watch movies all day"

M- "Thanks Saff" 

We sat down and started ordering Starbucks, candy and Chipotle. 

The food arrived and we started binge watching The Vampire Diaries, of course I sent a snapchat to Paul. 

I went over to the kitchen to get a glass of water. When reaching for a bottle of water in the fridge, I caught a scent of a Caesar salad, the eggs in particular. My stomach took over and I lunged out the door and into the bathroom. 

Saff's POV

I was watching TVD, waiting for Marli when I hear a door slam open. I rush over to the bathroom where I see Marli throwing up everything we just ate. I ran to her side and held her hair back. 

M- "S-Saff I'm so so-sorry"

S- "Shh it's fine"

I rubbed her back. 

What if she's pregnant?

Marli's POV

After throwing up, Saffron got me a glass of water. I cleaned up the bathroom even though she insisted not. 

What if I am pregnant?
