Liam exchanged glances between Edward and I. Feeling him tense beside me, I grabbed his hand and squeezed it lightly to let him know I was okay.

"Funny seeing you here." Edward smirked, his eyes looking at me up and down. It's like he was sizing me up.

"How so?" I asked, feeling unsure of how this would end.

"You just never seem to be around. How long has it been? Five years?"
He had a very sarcastic and ass hole tone in his voice at this point.

Seriously?
"Well I could say the same about you." I replied, feeling a little offended.

"Oh really?" He asked, giving a slight chuckle.

"Aren't you supposed to be in jail?" I snapped.

Edward chuckled, "I got let off a little bit early for being a good boy."

"Hm. You haven't changed a bit, Styles."
I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks.
Why am I getting so angry?

"Styles huh? Not what you used to call me. Should I be offended?" He smirked.

"You know you're kinda being a dick right now." I pointed out.

"Am I?" He shrugged, "Sorry bout it."

"Actually I think you're an even bigger dick than you were five years ago." I said, feeling my voice getting louder with each insult I shot at him.

"Why does it matter, Alex?" He asked, "Huh? News flash, you're not important in my life anymore. You're not even relevant anymore. You have no say in how I live my life."

His words caught me off guard, and it actually stung a bit.
"You're right, Ed. I'll just be on my way then, it'll be like we never even crossed paths again."
Then I stood up, grabbed my purse, and stormed out the door, slamming it behind me.

As I was walking away from the house I heard someone calling my name, "Alex! Alex wait!"
It was Zayn.

"What?! What could you possibly want right now?" I yelled.

Zayn caught up to me, grabbed my arm gently, and spun me around.
"Alex you can't just leave."

"What's it to you?" I snapped.

"He didn't mean any of that." Zayn replied, "He just hasn't been the same since he got back."

"Alex!" Liam called from the house, running towards me. He grabbed my hand and pulled me into him, "Baby we can leave if you want."

"No...." I sighed, "Let's go back inside."
I had to be an adult. I had to show Edward that I wasn't effected by his childish demeanor.

When we walked back in, Edward was no where to be seen.
Where could he have possibly gone?

"Alexandra, I'm so sorry for Edward's behavior. I didn't know he would act like that." Anne apologized.

"It's fine, Anne." I replied, "I'm sorry everyone..."

"Ed's in his room now. I don't think he'll be a bother." She told me.

"So...shall we finish dinner?" Harry asked.

We all laughed and nodded in agreement.

After excusing myself from the table, I was on my way to the bathroom when I heard someone whisper my name.
"Alex."
I turned around to see Edward at the top of the stairs. When I saw him, I rolled my eyes and started walking away until he rushed down and grabbed my hand. "Alex."

"What Edward?" I snapped, yanking my hand from his grasp.

"Look...I'm sorry, okay? I came to apologize." He said shyly, stuffing his hands into his pockets.

"Apologize? Oh so you actually have a heart?"

"Look I know you're mad, Alex." He started, "I just don't know what came over me. Seeing you was just really over whelming."

My heart sank, "And did you think it wasn't the same for me?"

"No. I wasn't saying that."
Edward pulled me closer into him, "I feel awful."
My heart pounded against my chest. Suddenly I couldn't speak.
"Alex. I've missed you." He whispered into my ear.

"Ed stop." I backed away from him. "I'm with Liam now."

"I'm just telling you the truth." He said, throwing his hands up.

Suddenly, I felt the same urge I felt in the way here. "I have to...I have to" I studdered.

"Alex are you okay?" Edward asked getting worried.

I squirmed out of his grasp and ran straight to the toilet, throwing up as soon as I got to it.
"Oh god."

"Are you sick?" He asked, "Alex?"

"Yes?"

"Are you sick? Do you need medicine?"

"Get Liam ...please." I begged.

Soon enough Liam came rushing into the bathroom and held my hair back as I puked again.
"Alex. We need to get you to a doctor."

"Liam?" Anne asked.

"Yes ma'am?" He said, poking his head out from the door.

"May I speak to Alex? I can take care of it from here." I heard her say.

Liam kissed the top of my head and left Anne and I alone.
"Anne I'm sorry. I'm ruining the night."

"No, no don't be sorry. You're not ruining anything. I just thought I should talk to you, dear." She said sweetly, "Have you been sick lately?"

"Yes ma'am. I don't know what it is." I answered truthfully.

"Honey, don't get offended when I ask this. Have you taken a test?" She asked, holding my hand.

"Test? Like a pregnancy test?" I asked confused, "No. I'm not pregnant." I laughed.

"Liam was telling us at the table how you've been sick lately, and I think you should consider the possibility." She explained.

Me? Pregnant?
And that's when I realized.
I'm getting bigger, I'm throwing up, Liam and I didn't use a condom one night...or two...or three.
Oh god.
"I need to know. I need to get a test..." I told her, fear rising in my chest.

"I'll get one for you, don't worry Alex." He smiled, "You can wait here if you need to. I'll be right back."
