Love's Bind

Ch. 10

Alexis's POV
"What the fuck," I heard Bryce say.
"Shit.." I mumbled under my breath.
"Who the fuck is this? And why the fuck y'all laid up in bed together?" Bryce yelled clearly pissed off.
"This is Caleb. He's my friend from way back," I said really not in the mood to argue.
"I don't give a fuck who he is. Why the hell y'all in bed together?"
"We were just talking Bryce damn," I said getting aggravated.
"Look man, I don't mean to cause no trouble. I was just here keeping Alexis company," Caleb said looking a little uncomfortable.
"Caleb, I'm sorry. You can leave," I said.
"Alright," he said and walked out.
Bryce closed the door and started walking towards me. Then he punched me in my face.
"You cheatin on me now? I been blowing you up all day and I come over here to see you and some nigga laid up together?" he yelled.
I laid on the floor crying and holding my face.
"I haven't been answering my phone because I didn't want to talk to you. This morning I wasn't feeling good so I went to the store to buy a pregnancy test. I took it and it came up positive. Then I went to the clinic and had them give me one there and that one was positive too," I said still crying.
"Alexis, I'm so sorry. I-" he said before I cut him off.
"I got an abortion," I said quietly but loud enough so he could hear me.
"You what?"
"Babe, what's taking you so long?" I looked and saw Danielle standing in the door rubbing her stomach. My heart dropped.
"Excuse me?" I said standing up. "Babe?"
"Yeah. You didn't know? Yo nigga is now mine. Haha bitch. That's what he came over here to tell you," she said laughing. I looked at Bryce and he was looking down. I looked at Danielle again and saw that she was holding her big stomach.
"You were cheating on me with her? And now she's pregnant?" I asked feeling myself getting sick at the thought of it.
"Yep. And now he's leaving you for me and our baby," she said smirking.
"Was I fucking talking to you!? Bryce speak!" I yelled. I can't find the words to express how I feel.
"I'm sorry," he said. I slapped him with everything in me.
"I'm sorry!? That's all you can say? Four years together and you waste it all for this bum bitch!? Are you kidding me right now!?"
"Who's the bum bitch?" I heard Danielle's basic ass say. I rolled my eyes and started beating her ass. Bryce pulled me off her.
"Get off me! Get the fuck out! Now! Getcho shit and leave!!" I said grabbing his clothes bin and throwing it at him.
He walked to me and hugged me. I broke him off me and punched him.
"LEAVE!!!!" I screamed.
"Yo what the fuck is going on in here?" Dre said looking around. Then he saw my face. "You hit my lil sister?" he said walking towards Bryce.
"Dre, leave it alone," I said calmly.
"No. If this nigga hit you, I'ma take care of him," he said angrily.
"I just want them to get the fuck out. Now leave," I said taking deep breaths. They walked out and Danielle was still talking shit. I slammed my door and fell down to the floor.
"Why this shit keep happening to me?" I said crying. Dre came and sat down by me and pulled me into his arms.
"Babygirl, everything happens for a reason. You may not see it now, but you will sooner or later. When you glo up, everybody that hurt you is going to see and wish they hadn't done what they did. Once day, you'll look back and say damn, I'm so glad that happened. It's gonna hurt like hell, but remember karma is a bitch," he said. "Get up and clean yourself up, and go to bed. You've had one hell of a day."
"I love you," I said.
"I love you too," he said.
I got up and did what Dre told me to do and went to sleep.
