Love gone wrong

Chapter 4

    It just slipped, I'm sorry Hunny," my mom says over the phone. Adam knows were I live. He knows! Ahh He can't come over. I can't let him see me."Mom he can't see me, not like this, I left without telling him anything don't you think he'll be upset? ugh it's okay i'll handle it bye mom," I say before hanging up. I clean up and lock the doors to the babies room's.I walk to the kitchen and make a tea. It's  three hours before the door bell rings. I wipe my sweaty hands on a towel and look through the peephole.

    It's Adam. As I open the door he sees only my face at first, he smiles until he sees my belly.

  "Can I come in?" He finally say after moments of silence. I open the door wider to let him in and close it once he's in. I gesture for him to take a seat. Making my legs move I sit across from him.

"How...how are you.?" He struggles with the question and I can't help but feel bad for him. He hasn't seen me in months and I bet he was worried sick about me.

"Your pregnant." It wasn't a question but I still feel the need to answer.

"Yes."

"How far along are you?"

"Five months." A tear escapes my eye.

"Is the pregnancy why you left?"

"Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?"

"I wanted to raise the baby on my own."

"You didn't think I would like to know that I will be a father?"

The harshness in his voice stuns me. Would he have wanted to know that he is going to be a father?Does it matter? I know he isn't ready to be a father.

"I need to do this on my own."

"What about me? That's my baby is it not?"

"I'm having two."

"Twins?"

"Not exactly." This confuses him.

"What do you mean?"

"It means you are the father of one baby."

"How is that possible?" 

"I don't know." I look into his eyes, his light brown eyes have turned dark and cold.

"Who is the father of the other baby?" I can't tell him. what will he do if I tell him? never talk to me? hunt Cole down and fight him? If the college finds out that Cole slept with a student his career will be over.That's one of the reasons I left so he wouldn't lose his job.

"who is it chloe?"

"I cant tell you."

"Can't or wont?" he frowns, his eyes darkening again.

"If anyone knows then he's going to have to stop teaching, I can't do that to him."

I see it in his eyes it finally clicked, He knows.

"Cole?! Our professor?"

I just nod afraid to talk.

"You..wait..what?"

"I was dating you and Cole at the same time back in pirani city."

"So you cheated on me the five years we were together?"

"No, just when we started college."

"You cheated on me for a whole year?"

"Yes, I'm sorry Adam, I never ment to hurt you."

"Then you shouldn't have cheated on me,"He says harshly.

Part of me knows he is right. I love him so why did I take a chance with Cole? Was I not happy with Adam alone? The answer is yes I was happy with Adam but Cole just happened to crawl his way into my heart.

"I really am sorry Adam." It's all I can say. It's pathetic.

"Why did you cheat on me? I loved you with all my heart I wanted a life with you but not like this."

"I don't know Adam it just happened but You have no idea how happy I am knowing I will be a mom. I wouldn't take back anything."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Just let me do this on my own, my children can't grow up wih two different dads it won't be good for them."

"Can't I get to see my child, I am the father."

"You can be in the delivery room when the time comes."

"What about Cole?"

"He doesn't know any of this, he is in the dark just like you were." I look down, ashamed of having kept them in the dark but I don't think I could have brought myself to come clean with the two men that I love, yes i still love them both, so so much. Adam my oh so gentle adam, who was so attuned to my emotions and actions. Adam ,Who loved me unconditionally and without reserve until now. All because I let another man in my arms, in my bed, in my heart and in my soul.

"Even if you did cheat on me with him I still think he deserves to know about this." Oh Adam, sweet adam always trying to do the right thing even when he has a reason not to.

"Your right but I don't think I can bring myself to tell him."

"Call Cole." I know that  stubborness behind his voice, he won't let it go.

"I'll call him."

"Now." I sqirm in my seat.

"Why?"

"The three of us need to talk about the babies."

He holds out his phone to me and shaking I take it. I dial Cole's number and wait nervously.
