Claudia's pov
For the next few days, I simply sat at home with Maria and cried in her arms.

Pregnant.

I'm fucking pregnant.

I didn't know what to do, I mean, do I abort it? I don't fucking know.

I didn't have any love for this baby, in fact, I hated it.

I didn't want it.

This baby was a mistake.

Today was Saturday, two days before Erich's trial.

I've been in the same clothes since, and I smell and look disgusting.

I decided to go home, even though Erich was probably there.

I only talked to him once, just reassuring him that I'm okay and I'm safe. He luckily stopped calling AS much, but still called like twice a day.

I didn't answer most of the calls.

"Thank you Maria." I whispered to her. We were now in her car, in front of my apartment. I gave her a hug, trying to keep my emotions in place . Literally anything could made me cry right now.

"Tell him tonight, and then message me if everything is okay. If something bad happens, call me." She said in a stern tone and I nodded. I got out, and waved goodbye. She left.

I wiped a tear that fell on my cheek and walked up the steps. I was scared for my life.

He killed Cindy because she didn't want to have an abortion, who says he won't do the same to me?

I opened the door, and looked inside.

No Erich.

I walked to the living room, and saw him peacefully sleeping on the couch. I smiled, looking at him.

He's perfect...perfect for me.

I kissed his cheek, and his eyes opened. He looked at me, and blinked a few times.

"Baby?" He asked and I nodded. He stood up, stretching.

"What happened to you?" He asked and I swallowed.

"Maria just had a little girl time." I half lied.

We did have girl time, if girl time is crying about a mistake baby.

He sighed and grabbed my hips, pulling me closer to him.

"I know you're lying, now tell me the truth my love." He whispered to me and I took a breath, tears threatening to escape my eyes.

Argh, stupid pregnancy hormones.

"What's wrong?" He asked and I shook my head before leaving his grip, going to my room. He was following me, about to come in, but I slammed the door in his face.

I went to the wardrobe and grabbed black sweats. I put them on, running my hand over my belly.

Did I really hate this child?

I took a shaky breath and that's when Erich came in, and ran his hands through his hair. He stared at me, confused.

"Claudia please..." He whispered and I shook my head no and went to my bathroom, going to the mirror.

I started putting my hair in a bun, when Erich came up behind me and grabbed my waist. I finished doing it, and looked in the mirror.

All I could see was Erich and I, with a little infant in my hands. Tears started coming out again.

"Baby please stop." He whispered and grabbed the back of my thighs, setting me on the counter. He hugged me, my tears landing on his shirt.

"Tell me what's wrong, I could fix it." He said, and I laughed. He couldn't fix this...not now, not ever.

"You can't..." I said, and a loud sob came out. He caressed my cheek, and looked at me. His bright blue eyes fixed on my brown ones.

"If you don't tell me what's wrong, I'll just go ask Maria." He said and I grabbed him harder.

"No, don't." I whispered and he sighed.

"Then tell me, I promise I won't get mad." He said and I swallowed. I ran my hands through his hair, my entire body trembling in fear.

"Erich I'm..." I started, but the door bell rang.

"What the fuck?" He whispered and left the room.

Erich's pov
Who the FUCK is that? She was just about to tell me what's wrong.

I opened the door, and saw Warren there.

"What?" I asked and he scoffed while coming in.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Are you an idiot? I called you ten fucking times!" He exclaimed and I ran my hands through my hair in frustration.

Claudia came out, her eyes now tear free.

"Warren get out, I'm not in the fucking mood." I spat and he shoved a file in my hands.

"Here, read the witness list." He said and went out the door, slamming it. I put the file on the counter and went back to Claudia.

"Ignore him, he's a asshole, now tell me what's wrong." I said and pulled her close to me, putting my forehead on hers.

"You're going to hate me." She said and I laughed while caressing her cheek.

"I'll never hate you, I'm in love with you." I said and I noticed she was shaking.

"Baby, tell me." I said and she nodded.

"Erich...I'm pregnant." She whispered.

"Is it..."

"It's yours."
