The Cost of Freedom Is High

The Big Announcement

It could've been any one of them that I'd already been with.

Fuck.

What had happened to me being that normal happy teenager.

Now I was fit to be a wacky contestant on Maury, but this time the possibilities of who the father was were much greater.

"I'm sorry." I whispered to my belly.

It was crazy, I never thought even once of getting pregnant, even through all the sex I'd been forced upon in the last 3 weeks.

Now I had a living being growing inside of my stomach.

Holy shit.

To make it even worse it was one of my idol's children, and it was forced.

I didn't want this at all.

I sat down on the floor, right in front of my bed. I pulled the accent blanket from off of the bed and placed it over my stomach.

I would keep this baby safe from them, no matter what.

I sat there for hours on end, just holding and gently caressing my stomach.

Much later in the night I heard a knock on my door.

"Can I come in?" Tyler asked.

"No." I said through clenched teeth.

"Awesome." Tyler replied, and entered the room anyways.

"Go away." I growled.

"So sweet Bella's gone?" Tyler stated, but in question form.

"You've raped me, and now I'm pregnant. Were you expecting me to keep up with being a sweet little submissive?" I questioned him.

"You're wanted down in the conference room." Tyler informed me.

"Tell them to fuck off." I growled.

"You have one chance to get down there on your own, then I'll take you." Tyler threatened me.

"You're not touching me." I snarled, getting ready to fight back.

"Come on." Tyler said, coming over to me.

"No." I snapped.

"I gave you a chance." Tyler snipped at me.

He came over, picked me up, and threw me over his shoulder, taking me down to the conference room.

"No, put me down!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.

"Knock it off." Tyler growled.

"Stop!" I hollered.

Before I knew it I was set down against the wall, and Tyler's arms were trapping me down.

"Listen to me, and listen well. Every single member of MIW, ETF, AA, BTF, OMAM, BMTH, FIR, BVB, PTV, SWS, and ATL are down in that conference room. They don't know what's going on, we've waited and will let you tell them. However, if you make me drag you down there kicking and screaming you will get punished. And yes, there are ways to punish you without affecting the baby." Tyler explained to me.

"I can't do it, I can't go and face them." I cried out in agitation.

"Well you either face them, or you'll be in trouble." Tyler told me.

I thought about the positives and negatives, and I realized I just needed to bite the bullet.

"Fine." I slowly agreed.

"Good girl." Tyler appraised me.

"Oh, and don't forget your manners, it might help diffuse stuff if things start to get a bit heavy." Tyler continued.

"Yeah, thanks." I muttered.

I got up and started to walk, but Tyler grabbed my wrist.

He gave me a glare, and raised his eye at me.

"No, sorry, not happening, Tyler." I hissed.

I pulled my wrist back and walked to the conference room with Tyler behind me.

I wanted to die once I saw all of the guys, but I kept my cool and sat in between Cameron and Balz while I was directly across from Craig.

"So what's going on?" Oli asked.

"I'm pregnant." I stated.

Shock, that was the only expression I saw on the people that were just finding this out.

The people that already knew seemed, somber?

Maybe that wasn't the perfect describing word, but they were not happy, there was no mistaking that.

"Are we sure?" Andy questioned.

"6 total pregnancy tests, all were a different brand, and they all came out positive." Danny informed him and everyone else.

"How are you doing?" Beau asked me.

"Take a guess." I said.

"Lose the attitude." Chris snapped.

Who the fuck was he kidding?

I didn't knock any of them up, they were the dumbasses that weren't careful.

"May I be excused, sir?" I asked, really anyone.

"Yeah, just don't do anything stupid." Chris said.

"Thanks." I whispered, and then got up from the table.

I walked away and sat down finally when I got to the kitchen.

I didn't want to go and hide somewhere, I just needed a place to relax and collect my thoughts.

As I got back up, I knew the perfect place.

Thrasher's POV-

It had been about 4 hours since we finished dinner, and I was on my way to take a shower.

I walked into the shower and bathroom, and went into one of the stalls.

I pulled back the curtain, and got the heart attack of my life.

"Fuck!" I screamed, seeing Bella sitting in the tub.

"Hi, sir." She whispered.

I quickly leaned down next to the tub, and grabbed both of her arms.

"Look at me. Are you okay?" I questioned her.

"I'm freaked out." She said.

"You didn't hurt yourself though or anything?" I asked, making sure she hadn't done anything like that.

"No, I promise. I was just looking for a quiet place." She told me, and I believed her.

"You have any idea what time it is?" I chuckled.

"Probably pretty late." She replied.

"It's 11 pm." I told her.

"Do I have to go to bed now?" She asked me.

"Well you should. How about this, I go shower, and after that we go to bed." I offered her.

She looked at me, gave me an intense glare, and crossed her arms.

Whatever came out of her mouth next was going to be pure gold.

"We're not fucking." She stated.

I threw my head back and fucking lost it with laughter.

It wasn't really funny, but her facial expressions were fucking perfect.

"Deal, just stay in your tub and I'll be back in a few." I told her.

I made sure she was fine, and went and showered.

I made it fast, and within 15 minutes I came back in and saw that Bella was still in her tub.

"Ready?" She asked me.

"Says the one sitting in the bathtub." I told her, and extended my hand.

Bella took my hand, and we walked back to Escape the Fate's room.

Luckily no one else was there.

"Which bed is yours?" She asked me.

"The middle one on the right side of the bed." I stated.

"Let me guess, Craig on one side, and TJ on the other." She groaned.

"You're good." I replied, and watched her as she slipped into my bed.

One small lamp was still on, but I figured the guys would need it on when they got back.

I slipped in next to her, and I could hear her breath get faster, and she rolled over so that she was as far away as possible from me.

"Ronnie and I know a guy that's going to come over and help figure some things out. Especially with the whole baby thing." I informed her.

As I finished talking she put her hand over my mouth.

"Please for the love of all that's mighty do NOT bring up the baby thing." She growled at me.

I saw something on her finger, and I pulled her arm over so that I could see it.

"What is this?" I asked, seeing it was a ring.

"It's mine." She snapped, and pulled her hand away.

"Bella you didn't have that when you left." I told her.

"Doesn't matter." She bitched.

"Give it to me Bella." I warned her, getting ready to fight her for it.

"No, get off!" She screamed, as I carefully pinned her down to the bed.

I grabbed her wrist, and attempted to get the ring.

"Fuck off!" She yelled.

We were interrupted by TJ coming into the room.

Her attention automatically turned to him.

"Want to keep that up?" TJ asked her in a very threatening tone of voice.

As she was about to respond, I slipped the ring off of her finger.

"Give it back." She groaned.

I threw it to TJ, and he placed it in a small plastic ziplock bag that we have in the bedside table.

She got out of bed, to grab it from TJ, but he quickly shoved it down his pants.

"Come get it love." TJ tested her.

"There's a special place in hell for you." She snarled, and grabbed a blanket and pillow.

"Where are you going?" I asked her.

"To my tub thank you very much asshole." She snipped but strangely in a cute way.

Just as she was about to exit the door she stopped, did a curtsey and flipped us off with both fingers, and then left.

"Did that just happen?" I asked.

"Yeah, should we just let her be?" TJ asked me right back.

"For now I guess." I told him.

With that we both went to bed.

Hopefully tomorrow we'd get more things worked out.
