The Quarterback lives in my Basement

Chapter 20- Court date and plus signs

Bella's Pov

I was getting ready for bed when I got a sickening feeling in my stomach and I ran to the bathroom. I got to the bathroom and instantly threw up. Wow popcorn and pizza don't mix; I brushed my teeth and went back into my room.

The next day my mom woke up to tell me that today was the court date and just the thought made my stomach turn. I got dressed in the most professional outfit I had which was a pencil skirt, purple blouse and black blazer which I paired with black heels. I walked down stair to see everyone was ready expect Steven who also had to appear in the court.

A few minutes later, Steven walked up fixing his black slick tie and he damn did he looked good Aaron was also going but he was going to meet us at the court house. The entire ride to the court house the knot in my stomach grew the closer we got.

I step out of the car to see Aaron was waiting outside for us so we can all go it at once. He greeted me with a hug and I flashed a weak smile. I walk into the court room and take our seats my mom takes a seat in the audience and Steven and Aaron sit at the witness table. I took the seat next to my dad who was defending me in the case.

I feel like my heart is my throat when I spot Cole walking in the courtroom in an orange jump suit and his hands in and cuffs behind his back. I avoid eye contact with him at all cost cause I know once I do I will crack and burst into tears. Right behind him is his lawyer which just so happens to be Martin Johnson also known as my dad's biggest competition.

"Okay everyone may take their seats" Says the Judge as he sits down.

"So we gathered here for the accusation of Cole Edwards rape of Isabella Martinez, So first we will turn to the victim to explain everything that happened that night. Ms. Martinez if you will"

I swallowed hard and begin.

"Well on Monday Cole had asked me if I want to go to a party on Friday and I accepted, So Friday morning came around Steven who is currently staying with my family and is close friends with Cole came to me and tried to convince me not to go to the party but I refused to listen.
If only I had listened...
Later that night Cole came to pick me up and when we got to the party we dance for a few hours when I lost him and decided to look around to try and find him"

I took a deep breath.

"When I walked up to the second floor I spotted Steven and Aaron sitting in a small room with a few other people, I kept walking down the hall when I saw an open room and walked in looking at the trophies that had Cole's name on it when suddenly the bathroom door from inside the room burst open and Cole stumbled, he walked towards me and grabbed onto me and forcefully kissed me and when I told him I didn't want to go that far he um.."

My voice was now weak and shaky.

"He shoved me against the wall and then threw me against the bed and ripped my clothes off and got on top of me and he punched the side of my face which explains the bruise. Then Steven and Aaron ran into the room and push Cole off of me and they knocked him out cold and then Steven brought me home and Aaron called the cops"

I took a deep breath satisfied with how told the story, hoping that was good enough to prove him guilty.

"Okay and you're not pregnant correct" said the judge

My heart stopped and my eyes widen at his question, I remember back to last night how I threw up. Also I realizing I should have had my period last week.

"I...um...I don't know"

All I wanted to do was run out crying I can't be pregnant by the guy how rapped me I can't what I am I going to do

******

The rest of the court session was a total blur expect for the question that the judge asked and the fact that Cole only got 3 years. Although at the moment the only thing on my mind was that I might be pregnant with his child. My dad stopped at a CVS and my mom stepped out to buy a pregnancy test and we drove back home and my dad had invited Aaron over for dinner.

Once we walked in I went straight up to my room with my heart beat beating a mile a minute and I realized I couldn't do it I had to go see Ericka first. Dinner wasn't for another couple of hours so I headed out the door and went to the hospital.

I walked into Ericka's room and my heart sank at the sight, her once dark tan skin was now pale and grey and her hair was no completely gone show the thick blue veins on her head. She smiled when she spotted me. I walked over and sat on the empty chair next to her bed.

"So they Court date was today..."

"Tell me everything is that scum bag going to prison?"

"Yea but only for three years...and there's something I didn't think about...what if I'm pregnant" I said my eyes beginning to water.

"Have you had any symptoms "Ericka said grabbing onto my hand.

"Well I threw up last night and I am late but other than that no"

"Well all I know is if you are your going to make an amazing mom"

I smiled and she smiled back we talked for a little while longer until nurses came in and asked me to leave since it was time for her chemo. I agreed and told Ericka that I will be back as soon as I can and to give me a call or text whenever.

I drove back home feeling a little better that I let out my feelings to someone. I stepped into my house and the smell of chicken and fettuccine alfredo filled the room and tickled my nose. I took a seat at the dinner table where everyone was already seated.

Dinner was quiet and awkward I knew it was over what happened in the court room, after dinner Aaron had to go home and he said his goodbyes and left. I went up to my room and starred at the pregnancy test on my test still in its box.

I picked up the best and opened it, and headed to the bathroom I have to get this over with eventually. I walked into the bathroom with my knees shaking. After I placed the used pregnancy test on the counter and I paced around the bathroom biting my lip and rubbing the sweat off my palms on my jeans. This has to be the longest five minutes any human as to endure.

Finally five minutes pass and I pick up the test with my eyes closed shut and bite my lip getting a metallic taste in my mouth. I take a deep breath and open my eyes.

Positive.
