Words are not enough

21.

Aiden

I woke up because of my phone which rang. Slowly I crawled out my bed answering the phone.
„Yeah hello?"  I asked because I not even looked on the screen so I didn't know who's calling.
„Baby? The visiting time is from 9 am to 11 am, can you come? I need to talk to you." I immediately recognized the voice from my girlfriend who was on the other line.
„Of course I'ma be there, which hospital?"
„Community Hospital" she answered. I noticed how worried she was, what made me feel tensed.
„I love you."
„I love you too."

I stood up and took a quick shower before leaving my house. While I was driving I texted Zac to cancel our football practice today. As I arrived I saw Ariana in the front of the hospital concentrating on her phone when I got several messages from her. I had to smile because she was sometimes so overprotective what was cute though. I honked one time and she scared. The gaze she gave me made me laughing but I knew she's gonna kick my ass. When I got out the car as she approached me.
„Hey baby" I said and opened my arms for a hug. She hit me playfully on my arm and I gave he a provocative smile.
„I almost died" she said with a small grin but I still could fell her tension. Then she pulled me into a firmly hug. I kissed her cheek walking to a bench in the front of the big building.
„What happened with Courtney? Is she okay?"
She starred on the ground bouncing her knee up and down.
„Ariana?" I said as I finally got her attention.
„I-I'm sorry I just—well—it's not that bed though."
She sighed before looking at me and took a deep breath in. I was really kind of scared hearing what she's gonna tell me.
„The situation is like that—Courtney is—pregnant."
My mouth opened wide as I heard what she said.
„W-wait, Courtney, our Courtney, our friend Courtney, your best friend Courtney?" I stuttered and she nodded. I let out a deep breath which I was holding in.
„I wanted to talk to her but she's such dickhead and she didn't want to. I know she's young and maybe not mature enough but she's gonna be a great mum."
I was still shocked because I didn't except something like this. I wrapped my arms around her and she leaned her head on my shoulder.
„How do you feel?" I asked giving her a kiss on her forehead.
„I'm really shocked but I'm fine just—you know, it's kind of weird a little bit."
„Everything's gonna be okay baby and you can say the same to her because she's gonna be a really good mum I know that." I tried to cheer her up.
My phone interrupted our talk as I pulled it out my jeans pockets.

„Baby I need to go" I said showing her my conversation with James.
„Alright, when am I gonna see you again?"
„I can come visit you in the front of the building here again when I finish my recording" I answered pulling her into a kiss.
„Take care of you" she said and I drove off to the studio.

Ariana

I was sitting in the waiting room because I didn't know how to talk to Courtney anymore. I understand that this is a complicate situation and she's young and so on, but it's her baby and she should be happy to have it. Some women can't get pregnant so she could. I stood up and took a deep breath in before opening the door seeing Courtney on her phone and with glossy eyes.
„Hey, how are you?" I asked walking over to her bed sitting on the bed edge holding her hand. She shrugged as I stroke over her arm up and down.
„Don't be sad Courtney is something good. You're gonna become mother and you're gonna try your best. I know you're gonna make it."
She looked at me, I noticed the tears in her eyes so I debated with myself, should I walk out the room or should I keep trying to cheer her up and give her some strength.
„I can't do this Ariana I just can't do this, I'm gonna be a worse mother because I know myself too good. I'm not like arrogant but I can't raise a child Ariana why don't you get it?" she cried-yelling at me.
A tear falling down my face because of seeing her like this. I really can't see her like this because she wasn't ever so clueless what to do.
„We're gonna make it together, I promise I'm gonna be with you, helping you and be there for you. And by the way, you have Ron, you have a man in your life. You love him and there's not gonna be any problem. You're gonna see when you hold your own child, you'll change everything for it." I explained confident.
„But maybe I don't want the b-."
„You're not abort your own baby or I'm not gonna talk to you never again." I yelled and cutting her off.
„It's my body and my decision what to do!"
I stood up giving her a mad gaze.
„You're not gonna kill a baby who can't to anything because it's born! It's innocent! Could you ever sleep with this? That you killed a baby?" Tears falling down my and her eyes.
„Don't do that because you're gonna be a great mother I know that. You're my best friend and I know that this is not easy for you but I promise I'm
gonna help you." She let out a deep sigh before I leave the room. I didn't know what to say either to her because I didn't know too. On my way out I met the doctor who's responsible for her.
„When is she allowed to go home?" I asked as he passed by me.
„Tomorrow Morning she's allowed to go home. Her gynecologist is talking to her because she needs to go to investigations. But she's doing great for now. The baby is healthy and the because of the blood, this is normal in a pregnancy."
„Thank you Dr.Creed."
I walked out to my car sitting into it and driving home. I was so fucking tired of everything and I just wanted to sleep. I went into my bathroom taking a bath trying to relax my ass off as I got a call. Reading his name of my screen made me smile even though the whole situation.

„Hey baby where are you?"
„At home taking a bath, where are you?" I asked taking foam and blew it away.
„Outside, you wanna let me in?"
I giggled before hanging up.

I stood up and took my robe walking downstairs. When I opened the door I saw Aiden with some flowers and a big teddy bear in his hand.
„What's that for?" I asked placing my hands on my hips.
„I just thought that you uhm—need some flowers and a bear and some burgers and fries."
I sighed before pulling him into a firmly hug.
We got in and ate. Afterwards we decided to watching a movie. Suddenly his phone rang what ‚woke' us up.

When he hung up I looked at him curiously.
„You not gonna tell me who that was?" I questioned crossing my arms.
„A friend, her name's Dayana."
„Aha okay, so and what did she want?"
„She asked me to bring her my keyboard she needs to practice her song." he replied and I rolled my eyes jealously.
„There's someone jealous" he scoffed and I hit his arm.
„If this chick touches you once I'ma bet first her ass and then yours. It's better for you to be nice to me."
„Yes ma'am" he said provocatively.

„Anyway, what's with Courtney?"
„I tried to talk to her and first it did go well but then yeah,—." I mumbled.
„Don't worry baby you'll see, she's gonna be great and happy I promise." he said placing a kiss on my forehead.
„When she's allowed to go home?"
„Tomorrow, I think Ron is gonna pick her up, even though he doesn't know about the whole thing." I sighed.
„Let's get some sleep princess."
„I'm so in love with your nicknames" I answered.
„Should I keep going calling you like that?" he asked.
„Call me however you want, you have to know that I'ma be your wife."
He smiled as I cuddled into his neck.

The next day I was waking up by loud knocking. Moody I stood up opening the door as I met the eyes of my best friend.
„Good morning" she said.
„Morning." I said leading her into the dining room because Aiden was still asleep. Ron came afterwards which I noticed when I turned around. We sat down and I prepared some breakfast for us. It was silent I didn't know how to break it but it fucked me up.
The next moment Aiden came in and saved me from this silence.
„Morning guys" he said walking over to me giving me a peck. Afterwards he gave Ron a fist bump and Courtney a hug. He put his hand on her stomach and I noticed her glossy eyes.
„Don't cry Court" he cheered her up hugging her another time.
„Let's eat something I'm starving" I replied placing the pan with the eggs and bacon in the middle of the table. I apply bread and jam before sitting next to Aiden and Courtney. After we ate Courtney broke the silence finally.

„Guys I need to tell you something"
