Veronica's POV

I am right now at a mall , trying to get away from zach , he has been acting weird lately and that ain't it chief.

It's been almost a week since our little scene, i honestly gave up trying to lure him into having sex with me , the worst part is that I'm still falling for him, it's not like i am ignoring him or anything but just not answering any of his questions and side remarks.

Well there goes my dream of not being a virgin anymore , or maybe i can try again , hmm

I was shaken out of my thoughts by a sudden tap on my shoulder, turning around i met with a familiar face , i can't quite remember where i had met her.

"Hi !veronica right?" She asked.

"Hi! Yes, sorry but do i know you?" I asked her not in a rude way.

"We met at the fundraiser last month , my name is juliet" she explained and then i remembered that i had seen her.

I smiled widely and apologized her for not remembering, we started having small talks and actually hit it off, after getting her number and inviting her to my house i left.

She was nice , i thought to myself.

Walking in the house i was welcomed with a delicious smell , my mouth watering and my stomach churning with hunger.

"Hello" i yelled.

Jennifer came rushing , her apron stained , giving her a look over i raised a brow.

"What happened to you?" I asked.

"I- Mr Herron he wanted to cook ...for you" she whispered the last sentence as she spoke nervously.

"Where is he?" I was cut off by Zach's sudden grab on my waist.

"Right here" he whispered huskily in my ears.

Holding my breath , i slapped his hands away.

"You smell like onion" i stated disgustingly.

"Only for you" he said walking towards me.

Screaming i ran upstairs to freshen up and quikly locked the bedroom door , i could here him chuckling from downstairs.

***
I was changing ,when Zach's phone chimed , ignoring i went back to putting on my clothes, once again it started ringing , sighing i yelled for zach,but didn't get a reply.

Walking towards the dresser , i picked up his phone and looked at the caller ID.

James

Sliding the green call icon , i put the phone near my ears and spoke.

"Hello" i greeted.

"Hello" came a child's voice.

"Who is this?" I asked, maybe Zach's employees son called by mistake.

"James" he replied, a small smile appeared as i heard his baby voice, he must be around 5 years old.

"Can i talk to my daddy?" He asked, i frowned not understanding his question.

"I think you called the wrong number honey" i softly spoke.

"No, this is my daddy's nwamber" he firmly said.

"And can i ask what's your daddy's name?" I asked him still smiling like an idiot.

"Zac-"

"James who are you talking to?" Came an old woman's voice.

"I called daddy" he replied.

"Tell your father to send $10000" she said annoyingly.

"Ok granma"

"Sorry, my granma is mean" he stated in a low whisper.

"Why?" I asked.

"My mommy died and my father is far away working" he continued.

"He is the best daddy in the world" i was grinning from ear to ear as i heard him say.

"if you love him then he must be" i replied.

"You are wevy nice Miss" i was struck in aw as he told.

"Thank you and my name is Veronica , you can call me roni"

"Roni, can you give the phone to Daddy?" He asked once again.

"Honey i think you got the wrong number" i stated again.

"No, this is Zach herrons number so that means it is daddy's number" my heart stopped, everything froze it was all going in slow motion.

"I-im sorry can you tell your dad's name again?" Tears were threatening to form ,the air felt thick and heavy all of a sudden.

I couldn't breathe.

"Zach herron" his soft voice spoke.

It was a lie , how? When? Why? I was feeling things for someone who had a son that i didn't know about.

A sob escaped my lips.

"Are you cwying?" james asked.

"N-no I'm just not feeling well" i said lying to him.

"It's ok daddy will make you feel better, whenever i am sick he would always sing to me and make me soup" another sob escaped my lips and this time i didn't stop the tears from spilling, i was quietly crying.

"I have to go roni, bye bye" he said quickly and canceled the call.

I held the phone in my hands, deep in thoughts that i hadn't realized zach had entered the room.

"Roni, oh my god is everything ok?" He asked, how can he ask such thing when it's him who did this to me.

"Liar" i whispered.

"What?" He frowned.

"You're a liar" i looked at him and spat.

"What are you-"

"Cheater"now i was screaming at him.

"Roni what happened?" he asked worriedly and i almost fell for it, keyword Almost.

"Y-you have a son" i whispered , i couldn't talk ,everything was turning dark.

the darkness consumed me in it as i fell unconscious on the floor.

A/N: sorry for the late post , so i have a question, should roni forgive zach?
