Yanking Out My Heart (A Chad Kroeger and Ryan Peake Fan-Fiction)

Chapter 13

2 days later...

        It's been 2 days since I told Chad I was pregnant. I'm really happy with how it went and every time I think about what Chad said to me, it brings a huge smile to my face. I haven't been able to get Chad off my mind every since that day.

         Right now, everything seems to be going better than I thought except one thing. I haven't told Ryan yet. I planned on telling him today and I'm so scared. I love Ryan but at the same time, I love Chad as well and I'm carrying his child. I was just scared how Ryan would react, kinda the same situation I was in with Chad. Hopefully Ryan takes it as well as Chad did. Which was something I didn't really expect to happen.

I sent Ryan a text and told him to meet me at a cafe in downtown Vancouver. I didn't tell him why though because of course, I was going to wait until I seen him in person.

        I didn't want to meet up at his house either. Once I got to thinking about it, if Ryan got mad, maybe it would make it better if we were in public around other people and not in the privacy of his house... we're all hell could break loose.

When I arrive at the cafe, I see Ryan already sitting at the bar with a cup of coffee. He sees me walk in and stands up.

           "Hey babe." He says as I walk up to him.
He kisses me then sits back down.

        "So, we need to talk." I say as I take a seat next to him. Ryan turns in his chair towards me letting me know he's all ears.

       "Anything honey." He says and smiles. He takes a sip of his coffee and sets it back down. He didn't seem to have a care in the world. It was kinda alarming to see him so calm even after I said, we need to talk. I mean, guess it could be a good thing that he's calm.

        I take a deep breath and Ryan places his hand on my hand. I glance down at our hands when he does that and back up at him.

I had a feeling Ryan knew something was up. That's why, I think, he's being so calm. I prepare myself to tell him.

"Ryan, you know I love you right?" I ask. He takes a sip of his coffee and swallows.

"Of course I do. Why would you ask me that?" He asks setting his coffee down. He takes his free hand and rubs my thigh.

"Okay, please don't be mad at me when I say this." I say and swallow. Ryan tilts his head and looks at me.

"I'm pregnant and.... the baby isn't yours Ryan." I say. I felt a knot in my stomach when I said that. The smile wiped off Ryan's face. It wasn't really a look of anger he had on his face, it was more of a look of confusion.

           "What do you mean it's not mine? Who's is it then?" He asks in a slightly angry tone. It began to sink in with him, he was starting to get mad now. I knew this was going to happen and I know he was going to be even madder when I told him who's baby it was. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little afraid of what Ryan might do when I tell him.

          "Um. Damn it." I say and sigh. "It's Chads." I say and close my eyes. I knew Ryan wasn't happy and I was scared to open them.

          "That bastard!" Ryan says jumping up from his seat. He bolts towards the door before I stand up and grab his arm, stopping him.

         "Ryan, where the hell are you going? I thought you said you loved me?" I ask. He had this cold look of anger in his eyes when I mentioned that.

          "Yep. I thought I did." Ryan jerks his arm back from my grip. I let go of his arm and watch him walk out of the cafe. There was nothing I could do to stop him and something inside me didn't want to stop him either.

At this point I'm fed up with him. I want to break up with him but I don't know how. My heart says break up with the man, Chad Kroeger is the one you really love and deep inside I know it's true. But my mind says the opposite. Something about Ryan keeps me coming back to him and giving him second chances. But this time, he wasn't getting a second chance.

            I feel like crying. I've already cried enough and I held back my tears. I needed someone to talk to but I don't know who to call. Haley was at work, my mom and dad would be pissed, Mike and Daniel would just go talk to him. Then it hit me. Chad. The person I needed to talk to was Chad. I needed to tell him how I felt. It was the only option I have at this point.

          I wasn't going to text or call him, I was going to go to show up at his house unannounced. If he was there, great. If he wasn't, then I guess it just wasn't meant for me to tell to him how I felt.

          Chad wouldn't mind me showing up at his house unannounced... right? No, he wouldn't care at all. Especially in this situation.

           I leave the cafe as quickly as possible. I'm pretty sure I burnt all the tread off my tires trying to leave. I wanted and needed to see this man as soon as I could. Chad was the one I loved, I knew it and I needed to tell him.

          As I'm driving I realized that I didn't love Ryan. This whole time I thought I did. But for some reason, my mind didn't want to believe that Chad is the one I love. Know that I'm carrying his child it all makes sense to me now.

          I was lost in my thoughts thinking about Chad and trying to get to him as soon as I could. I was driving way to fast and apparently, I wasn't paying attention to the road either. I look up and grip the wheel when I see a car coming straight at me. The last thing I remember was trying to swerve to miss the car. My reaction was too late.

        "BAM!!"
