Be Good For Me (Dinah/You)

28

Quincy's POV
It's been a week and Dinah is still acting strange. At first I thought she was just having a rough day but she hasn't let up. I don't want to pressure her into telling me but it's seriously bothering me not knowing what's going on with her. I tried asking Ally but she doesn't seem to know. I'm stumped at this point. I want what's best for her because she means the world to me but I have a feeling that she's keeping something from me. She wouldn't lie to me, right?

Y/N's POV
Due to our close call with Quincy, Dinah has stopped coming over which is making me feel sort of empty. Of course I miss the constant sex but with Dinah it's not all about that. I miss her presence and the way she made me feel. I actually see myself having a future with her and I want to change and be a better person for her. I've never felt this way about a girl before so all of these feelings are extremely overwhelming. Whenever I try to talk to Lauren and Normani about it, all they do is tease me and when I talk to Zayn, he tells me to keep my feelings down because he thinks it's a faze. I don't blame him. I'm a horrible person and I've never been in a relationship so what if I feel too trapped and end up cheating on her?
'Shit Y/N stop being so self-deprecating' I think to myself.

"Hey Y/N, did you hear what I said?" A voice says making me snap out of my thoughts.

"Huh?"

"Of course you didn't. Well I asked whether we could meet up and talk after school?" Lucy says.

"Talk about what?" I said.

"Well I tried telling you a week ago but it's about what happened at Zayn's pa-" she starts but I cut her off.

"Could we please not talk about that? I don't want to talk about that night or any other time we hooked up. That past is the past and reliving it, reminds me of how much of a horrible person I was" I say.

"But Y/N, I'm-"

"Look I have to go to the bathroom before next period so I'm leaving" I say as a stand up from the cafeteria table and walk towards the bathroom.

On my way, I see Dinah standing by her locker with Ally and Camila. I can't help but stare at her as I'm walking by. She briefly looks up and we make eye contact. I give her a small smile and she gives a slight wave before returning to her conversation. With a sigh, I look back down and walk into the bathroom.

The next period has started and as I sit there, I'm unable to focus because all I can think about is Dinah. I pull out my phone and text her.

Y/N: Look I know you wanted us to keep our distance because of what happened last week but I need to see you. Could you meet me by my locker in 5 mins.

Dinah: Y/N, I'm in class. Stop being a bad influence and allow me to learn

Y/N: Dinah please? I don't have time for our usual banter

Dinah: Okay. Okay. I'll be there

I smile at her response and ask to go to the bathroom. I'm forced to wait for some other student to come back first so I anxiously sit in my seat watching the time.

Dinah's POV
After getting Y/N's text, I ask to go to the bathroom and head out the door. Before heading to her locker, I make a slight detour and actually enter the bathroom to freshen up before seeing her. As I'm fixing my makeup while in front of the mirror, I hear a sniffle. I ignore it because I wanted to mind my business but it started to get louder and it became clear that someone was crying. Unable to just walk away, I speak up.

"Hey, is everything okay in there" I say, knocking on the stall.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just allergies" the girl says.

"I know what allergies sounds like and I'm not trying to call you out or anything but you are definitely crying and clearly not okay" I say.

"Just leave me alone, please" She says with a voice crack from all the crying.

"Okay, I'll leave you alone but if you decide to come out and talk, I'll be right out here" I say before going back to fixing my face in the mirror.

After a few seconds, the stall door opens and out comes none other than Lucy.

"Lucy?"

"Were you serious when you said that we could talk?" She says.

"Yes of course I was" I respond.

"Well since you seem to be one of the few people that don't like Y/N, I guess I can trust you since I know you won't tell her"

"Tell her what?" I say.

"I'm pregnant" she says and I completely freeze. My mind goes blank and I feel so many different emotions that I don't know what to do. I'm unable to hear anything else she says past that but I snap back into reality just in time to hear the ending.
"-And I've decided to take care of the baby by myself"

"Wait what?" I said.

"Were you not listening?"

"No I was... I just need to hear it again to make sure I heard you correctly"

"Well I'm pregnant. And I've known for about two weeks now. I tried telling Y/N last week but she cut me off and once I tried to tell her again today, the same thing happened. She's treating me like shit and I refuse to take it anymore. I don't want a person like that in my baby's life so I've decided to take care of the baby by myself"

"Well to be fair she's not just any random person, she's the baby's other mother and deserves to be a part their life" I say.

"Well you know how shitty Y/N can treat a person. And she is a fuckboy who sleeps around too much. I don't want that type of behaviour around my child"

"Im sure she would change her ways if she knew she was going to be a mom" I say.

"Well I'm not about to wait around for that to happen because there is a big chance that it won't so that is why she isn't going to know" she says.

"What do you mean?"

"I've tried telling her and she refused to listen so I'm done trying" she responds.

"Lucy, she deserves to know! You can't just leave her in the dark about her own child"

"Why are you defending her? This is a decision I made and I don't need the added stress because it's bad for me and my baby" she yells with tears streaming down her face.

"You're right, I'm sorry if it seemed like I was attacking your decisions but I'm not sorry about what I said. I know you know I'm right. You may not have to tell her now, but you have to let her know about this child eventually" I say before walking out of the bathroom.

I walk back to class and pull out my phone to text Y/N.

Dinah: Sorry, teacher didn't let me leave.

Y/N: well that's sucks, I was really looking forward to seeing you but that's fine. Can you meet me after class?

Dinah: Can't I have a thing. But I gotta get back to focusing in class so bye.

I put my phone in my pocket and try to listen to the lesson but who am I fooling, I can't pay attention. I really wish I never talked to Lucy because now that I know this secret, I'm tempted to tell Y/N but it's not my place to tell her. Lucy has to be the one to tell her. But I know that I have to continue this distance between us until then.
