Only Omega - Book 1. (Complete)

Chapter Four.

Rachel's P.O.V.

The morning after I dressed in a pair of booty shorts, a white ruffled top with red lips on the front and a pair of leopard print platform heels, the ones Bridget wore to my party, then I headed downstairs to the kitchen.

“Morning” I greeted Bridget who sat at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in hand and Vicky who was leaning back against the counter.

“Morning, looks like someone finally decided to get up” Vicky said jerking her head towards Bridget who shot her a glare and went to fiddling with the hem of her pink designer cardigan.

“It’s about time, we were starting to think you were pregnant or something” I teased going over to the fridge to grab the orange juice and poor some into an empty glass that stood on the counter top.

“Uh…yeah really funny guys” I froze while putting the carton away and turned to glance at Bridget. She had her face hidden but underneath her long blonde hair I could see that she wasn’t wearing any makeup.

“Bridget you okay?” Vicky asked as I slowly closed the door to the fridge placing my hand on Bridget’s shoulder and making her jump in surprise.

“Bridget” I breathed feeling her pulse raise as she stared wide eyed down at the marble flooring. She looked scared and was on the edge of breaking down in tears. Vicky pushed off the counter, stepping closer with worry in her eyes.

“Bridget what’s wrong?” she asked coming to stand beside her best friend while I knelt down at Bridget’s side. I tried to meet her eyes but the blonde refused to look at me.

“Bridget is it what I think it is? Are you-?” I couldn’t finish, I was stunned as I searched the face of one of my best friends with concern in my eyes. Bridget bit her bottom lip with tears in her eyes and nodded hesitantly.

“You’re-.” Vicky tried but couldn’t finish out of shock as I pulled Bridget into a tight hug. Tears were streaming down the side of her face as I rubbed her back soothingly “It’s okay, it’ll be okay we’ll get through this like we always do, together”

Bridget pulled away quickly frantically wiping at her tears then looked at me in sorrow and heartache in response to Vicky’s words “No we won’t you’re leaving and I don’t know if I can do this without you”

She was right, I was leaving to be with Hayden and to do that I had to leave everything else behind including Bridget and Vicky.

“Listen to me you’re strong enough to get through this on your own, you don’t need me” I tried to reason cupping her face in both my hands and forcing her to look into my eyes. She was a mess with her hair matted and dark circles under her eyes. She even wore a pair of skinny jeans and a loose white top with her pink cardigan and black flats. Bridget never wore flats.

“Yes I do! I don’t know how to be a mom, I don’t know how to raise a child!” she sobbed looking terrified at the thought of being a mother. She was just eighteen and still had her whole life ahead of her but she had Kyle to take care of her.

“You’ll be a wonderful mother, you have Kyle to help you and-.” She cut me off with a shake of her head looking to the side with pain in her eyes “No I don’t I told him to-I told him to leave after I found out, I-I told him that I never wanted to see him again”

I knew she was fighting with herself about asking Kyle to leave since her wolf wanted to be with her mate but Bridget was scared and confused.

“I just needed some time to think I-I’m so scared Rachel” she whimpered and I hugged her for the second time holding her close as I tried my best to comfort her “It’s okay, you’re going to have a baby, you’re going to be a family just think about the baby, think about how precious it’ll be”
