Shards Of Pain

The Heart Always Knows

My heart will always belong to Henry. My heart will always belong to Henry. She repeated like a mantra while she was walking back to her Parent's house with Chloe.

Why do you keep saying that, Char? Chloe asked as she was starting to get a little bit annoyed.

Oh. I just realized that I am probably the biggest idiot on the planet. What reason could I have come up with that that would give me a reason enough to break up with Henry? Charlotte asked rhetorically.

You said that he could hurt you like Grant. Chloe reminded her

I know but now I know that he could never do that. He loves me and loves our baby. I'm such an idiot. Charlotte said.

Yeah, it definitely wasn't one of your strongest moments Chloe said.

I know it wasn't. I mean I love Henry and he loves me and I need him. I just need to figure out how to fix it. I know his pride was hurt when I broke up with him. She said worriedly.

Yeah, it definitely wasn't one of your strongest moments. Chloe told her friend.

Henry will take you back. I know it. I also know that when he does, you will spend the next several hours with him in bed having astonishingly great make-up sex. Chloe said smiling.

I"ve never had make-up sex. What's the difference between the regular one? Charlotte asked.

Because there are all the emotions left in the air and it makes it more passionate. Me and Jasper have make-up sex all the time whenever we fought. She said smiling.

Good for you and also Gross. Charlotte said grimacing at the thought of her friend and her ex boyfriend's brother having sex.

I know it is. Chloe said before pulling Charlotte towards her house.

So the plan is that we stay here tonight and head home tomorrow morning? Chloe clarified.

Yeah, I want to spend a little more time with my Mom and Dad and maybe see Lindsey before I leave. Once I get home, I will have to make it right with Henry. Charlotte said.

Don't worry about Henry right now. I don't need you to get stressed out. Chloe said pulling Charlotte towards the front door.

Charlotte's parents were sitting in the living room when the girls walked in.

How was your walk? Paul asked.

Great. Charlotte here discovered that she's an idiot for breaking up with Henry and when we get back to Swellview tomorrow, she is going to go and fix it. Chloe said grinning.

That's great, Charlotte. We could tell that he was nothing like Grant the moment we met him. I don't know how you couldn't see that. Kim said.

I was scared. Charlotte admitted.

But you aren't anymore? Paul asked.

Not of Henry. Now my fears are more directed to this pregnancy. She said.

What about pregnancy? Kim asked.

Well, giving birth obviously but also things like being a mom. For one, how I'm going to be attending college in two years, while being a new mom. Second, how Henry will feel about me after I give birth when I'm bloated and gross. She listed.

For one giving birth is painful, but yet beautiful experience. I would know since I did it twice. Second, you are strong and you can handle school and being a mom, but you will have to face the fact that your life will change. However, when you have the baby, it will makes your heart grow bigger and capable of holding more love than ever before. Finally, When it comes to Henry, he will want you no matter how big you get. I have seen the look in his eyes and I know that boy loves you more than anything in the world. Kim said.
