Sail Away With Me (Rory McCann)

Wait Begins

Emily had left with Tori the previous night to make sure she would be okay at the hospital and when they finally returned to the hotel, Tori spent the night with her. It wasn't until the next morning, when both the girls were getting breakfast, did she finally see Rory. 

"Can we talk?" he asked her as she walked down the buffet breakfast. 

"I've nothing to say Rory. Please will you just leave me alone, I've made a big enough show of myself already without another public blow out with you".

"I don't want to argue anymore. I just want to talk... to apologize". 

"Well, I don't want to hear it".

Suddenly, Rory reached out for her shoulders and pulled her to look at him. "You're going to have to talk to me at some point women. We fucking work together, just please let us talk about this. Let me apologize for everything".

"I'm transferring to dragon unit. Save us both the trouble, you can go back to your solo lifestyle and I can just move on from this entire fuck up".

"Tori" he whispered in a pained voice.

Sighing, she quickly shuck from his grip and took a step back. "I'm sorry Rory, but I can't do this. I've spent most of my life being unhappy, I need to concentrate on not going back to that darkness, I need to look after myself and yeah, my heart".

When she finally went to walk away, Rory didn't reach out for her again. It was too late, he had been lucky to have the affections the most beautiful women he had ever seen, but she was also fragile and he had put that aside for his own self-esteem issues. 

6 Weeks Later - Dubrovnik

"Fuck this is so much better than freezing our tits off in Belfast" Emily sighed as we took our seats on the sun lounges by the hotel pool.

"Maybe too hot" Tori groaned and cringed into my stomach.

"You still feeling sick?".

Today was one of their very odd days off, so Tori, Emily and Lena headed to poolside. She would usually enjoy their time off, but for the past three days she had been crazy sick. As soon as she woke up she'd was sick, the scent or taste of food would make her sick. After several days like this she was completely drained.

"Have you eaten something funny?" Lena asked.

"Maybe she's pregnant" Emily laughed.

Suddenly her brow dropped as gave them both the stink eye. The thought had crossed her mind though, she had after all spent several days shagged up with Rory with no thought to protection.

"You're not... are you?" Emily asked, but this time the amused smile on her face had dropped.

"I'm not sure I could rule that out" she cringed.

Emily quickly turned back to Lena before snapping her head to her. "Come on... now!".

The girls quickly threw on their clothes had headed out of the hotel to the nearest pharmacy. Tori couldn't believe she was actually buying a pregnancy test in a foreign country due to a guy she'd not spoken to in six weeks. Rory had not left her mind and with every day that passed she grew more angry at him or not trying to get in contact with me. She knew she'd told him to leave her alone, but a part of her wish he had tried harder.

"Its probably just a stomach bug" she shrugged again as we got back to the hotel and Emily began opening the box as Lena passed her a glass of water.

"I'm not pregnant. Like it's just not happening" she muttered again and stepped into the bathroom.

It took her well over ten minutes to manage just enough pee, but then came back into the room and flopped down in the bed.

Emily came to sit next to her as she leaned over the pregnancy test. "And now our wait begins" she smirked.

Really short chapter but wanted to leave it on some suspense. Muahaha. I hope you enjoy this chapter though and in the meantime check out my latest story, Heal Me.
