In the closet (MJ fanfiction) ON HOLD

Chapter 9 - Not as I planned

The clock strikes 18. I just got off the phone after talking to Tom. And he is coming over. I didn't tell Carrie about the "plan", she would only think it was stupid and so mean. I guess it is. but right now i can't think of anything else to do.

If not i should break up with Tom, run away and give birth without worrying anyone. Then again, not to tell Michael about it is also totally wrong. This child is as much mine as it is his.

What shall I do when he comes over?
I love Tom, and I can't tell him the truth.

The door bell rings and I jump out of my thoughts. I walk to the door and open. Michael?
"What are you doing here?" I look at him confused. I wasn't expecting him here, at least not without a call or a text from him before.
"Carrie called me. Are you pregnant?" He gives me a shocked, surprised look. Why did Carrie tell him that? It isn't her desicion!

I am about to speak when I notice Tom in the background. I swallow hard.
"Yo- You're pregnant?" he stutters. "And let me guess, he is the father.." he points at Michael. "I thought you and me were a couple, but you know what, you deserve each other, I am out!" he yells at me. "I am sorry Tom!" I reply fast before he is about to walk. "Save it" he mumbles before walking away.
"I didn't know he was standing there" Michael says to me. I sigh. "It ain't your fault Mike, I should've told you when I found out"

I walk inside and Michael walks after me, closing the door behind. "I forgot to take the pills since that is what I usually do".
"I figured..So are you going to have the baby?"
I turn around to look at him, and nodd. "Of course, but I don't want to ruin your relationship with Lisa, so I can take care by myself".
"No, no.. you know I love children and this is mine also, I will take care no matter what" He says, while coming closer to me.
"And what about Lisa?"
He smiles and holds my hand in his. "I will figure that out" I feel the warmth of his hands. It feels good and relaxing.
I smile as well. "So, are you doing something tonight?" I ask him while taking my hand out of his. Since my plans with Tom got canceled I have nothing to do. It is strange, I don't feel sad about not being Tom's girlfriend. probably my hormons playing with me.
"Uhm, nothing really"
"Wanna watch a movie, or something, I need company"
"Sure!"
