All for you

chapter 6

'That son of a bitch' Hallie screamed pacing back and forth whilst her fingers tightened on the screen, clearly trying to find a reasoning behind what she was viewing.

'I swear to you now, the next time I see the man I will cut every body part of his to shreds' she started again, still focused in on the pixels steadily breaking my heart, 'He can say goodbye to his no-good dick cause that shits coming of first'.

For the first time since her protest began this morning, her gaze finally met with mine spawning a sympathetic look across her features. Striding towards me, I failed to notice the droplets rolling down my cheeks in a steady rhythm until her finger grazed the liquid, forcing them all to leave my bare skin.

My hormones were already irrational since his departure, with every day resulting in at least three meltdowns before my cries sent my reluctant self to an awful night's sleep. But now, knowing a part of him was inside of me slowly forming with each passing second, I felt a whole new sense of pain soaring through my veins.

I knew deep down that this was inevitable, that one day he'd find someone new and practically forget our relationship even existed.

His arms would wrap around the lucky figure's torso whilst his head would gently rest in the crook of her neck.

His lips would graze the tip of her nose before placing a passionate kiss on the area just below.

His eyes would sparkle with lust at the sight of her body undressed for only him to see.

The thoughts alone of another woman touching his skin in places I'd become so familiar with was enough to send shivers down my spine, only being disrupted by the sound of Hallie's voice starting again.

'I swear, if he was within a 100 miles radius, the little shit wouldn't be fucking seen again' she spoke, clearly trying to keep a calmer tone despite the anger evident through the layers of wrinkles dancing across her forehead.

'But he's not Hallie. He's in London with that chanal probably fucking the brains out of her' I finally spoke out.

'Chanal?' She asked referring to the name I'd announced only seconds ago.

'That's her name, some accounts started tagging her on Instagram'

'That bitch, I'll find her as well and wipe that ugly ass fucking smirk and then, ill crush her fake boobs faster tha-' she started, only to be cut of seconds later by the sound of the doorbell.

Continuing to mutter under her breath all the way to the handle, her grip clenched down before the bright smile of Anna met both of our visions. Stepping aside letting the woman stranded in the hallway in, her face didn't once relax nor did the low words emitting from her throat stop, forcing a look of confusion to cross our guests face.

'Hey Hallie its great to see you' she started as the slamming of the door overplayed her words, 'Is everything ok?'

As soon as her eyes found mine, I knew that she wasn't familiar with what had been uploaded only yesterday. With her raised eyebrows frozen in place, her movements took my legs onto her lap before the question i'd been waiting for left her lips, 'What happened Jo?'

Worry clearly imprinted her features at the sound of my silence as I took the small device I owned in my hands. Locating the exact image which sent so much agony rushing to my heart, I moved it closer to her eye line the way I'd done only days ago with his gut-wrenching video.

'What the fuck?' she shouted out loud grabbing the phone in order to get a closer view before apologizing for her use of language as more inaudible syllables began escaping her throat.

'I can't do this anymore Anna' I said after minutes of silence, looking into her eyes hiding the deeper reasoning behind my remark before continuing looking towards the ground, 'I've tried, I've really tried but I just can't'

The strange thing was, as Anna's arms wrapped themselves around my shoulders, my eyes didn't water like I'd become so used to. They remained empty. The emotional exhaustion alongside the countless breakdowns had officially broken me.

'Look at me Jo' she paused waiting patiently for my eye line to meet her own, 'you're going to get through all this shit ok'

With a quick nod from myself, the words I least expected to hear sounded in my ears, 'I really think you two need to talk Jo'

Even though my body seemed completely taken aback by her idea, I knew every word she had spoken was truth. Not only did the basis of our careers with after depend on our chemistry, but now a human being produced by us both was added to the mix.

Instead of waiting for an answer she knew I was incapable of responding with currently, her hands grasped the remote laying on the stand beside us before popping Netflix up on the screen.

'So what's been your latest binge this week miss Josephine' she said in a clear effort to try and distract me from the reality of my life, 'Prison break it is'

After around three episodes and a room swimming in silence, the woman I'd failed to even notice had disappeared opened the front door as her arms carried in what looked like the entirety of Target.

'Im not going back there ever again' Hallie exaggerated with anger still radiating from just one look, 'Some crazy Karen stole the last pack of fucking Oreos the dumb bitch'.

Standing to my feet despite the aching controlling both my heart and muscles, I followed the two women already unpacking the bags in the kitchen, my arms reaching down to grab a bag overflowing with my favorite snacks before having it snatched away in an instant.

'No, no, no young lady, no heavy lifting for you. I don't want my godchild popping out anytime soon'

As soon as the words left her mouth, the sound of glass crashing to the floor widened my eardrums replicating the state of my eyes. Not even two seconds later, Anna's entire body swung round to face my own with a state of shock written in every direction.

'You're pregnant' she more so stated than asked, her starstruck orbs never once leaving my own.
