Sylvia's P. O. V " Skyler, are you pregnant?" I asked but Skyler didn't say anything. Picking the rest of the things from the floor, I held her hands and dragged her to her apartment, watching as she opened the door. We walked in and she sat on the couch, not meeting my gaze. " I asked a question Skyler, are you pregnant?" " Yes! " She suddenly screamed. " Yes, I'm pregnant. " She said, her eyes glistening with tears. I was gobsmacked. " For who?" I finally asked. " For Patrick." She muttered, her voice barely audible. My mouth hung open. Skyler, pregnant for Patrick? How did that happen!? " H-how?" I stuttered. She sighed heavily, before telling me everything. I could only stare at her, too shocked to speak. " How could you let that happen!? How could you have gotten pregnant for him?" I said once she was through. " I don't know okay? All I know is that I'm pregnant and I don't want to be a mother yet." Tears streaming down her
Skyler's P. O. V " Skyler, is it true you're pregnant?" He asked and I gulped, all the blood draining from my face. I stared at him for a long time, unable to say anything. Eventually he gave up asking me and walked right in. " How did you find out?" I found myself asking. " How are you even here? " He didn't look at me, just glanced around. He stopped when he saw the drugs on the table. Stomping towards them, he picked them up and glanced at me. " Have you used this?" He asked. I shook my head. " No. " I whispered. He picked them up. Looking for and finding the toilet he poured all of it and flushed it down. Then came out, still fuming. Walking towards me, he stopped just inches front of me, his eyes boring into mine. " I asked you a question Skyler. Are you pregnant? " He muttered, his voice low but very angry. I looked down, tears forming in my eyes. " Yes." I whispered at last. " Yes, I'm pregnant." " Why didn't you tell me?" " I di
Sylvia's P. O. V I just arrived home. Coming out of the airport, I made to call Alex. " Hey..." I greeted when he picked up. " Hi. You're back?" He asked. " Yeah." " How was it?" " It was fine. And the meeting was a success." " That's great news. Can't wait to see you this evening." He said and I slowed down. " This evening?" " Oh... Nevermind. Was thinking about the surprise I had for you. " " Really? Then... I can't wait to see you this evening!" I said, squealing. He chuckled. " Bye now. I'll see you soon. " " You too." I hung up, smiling gleefully to myself. Picking up my pace, I hurried out of the airport and boarded a taxi, going home.... I arrived home to meet a very eager mom. She was waiting for me. " Hey Mom... Good morning, or what time is it?" I said and she chuckled, ushering me in. I dropped my bag on the couch and glanced at her. " Good morning dear. How was your trip?" She asked.
Sylvia's P. O. V " Sylvia... Will you marry me?" He asked in the most sincere voice I've ever heard and my eyes watered. Blinking back the tears, I grinned. This is too good to be true! " Oh my... Yes, Yes!... YES!!" I screamed, running a hand through my hair as tears spilled out of my eyes. He took my hand and placed the ring in it. I gasped as the ring fitted me so perfectly. " It's so beautiful." I whispered, admiring it. It had a beautiful diamond in the middle and it was intricately decorated and cut, it glittered every direction. Alex stood up from his position and holding my hands in his, looked into my eyes. " Although I'm not the perfect guy out there for you, I promise to do my very best to make you happy." He said and my heart fluttered. " You best is good enough for me." I muttered before leaning in for a kiss. He wrapped his hands around me almost as instantly, angling his mouth so he could kiss me deeply. I revelled in the kiss, the butterflies in my stomach on a
Skyler's P. O. V " Was that Sylvia?" I asked as I came out of the bathroom. I had gone to empty all the contents in my stomach as I was feeling nauseous. My morning sickness is really not helping matters. It's hard to keep any food I eat down. " Yes." He replied. I went to sit in front, serving myself another plate of breakfast. " Why did she call?" " She wanted to tell me about her wedding that'll be happening in few weeks time. She'll be getting married." " Alex proposed?" " Yes. He did." " Are we going?" I asked, a bit eager. Patrick pursed his lips, his jaw ticking. " I don't think so. You heard the doctor's report when you visited three days ago." " He said I was getting stronger." " He also said the health or you and your baby is still pretty fragile. You can't run around like you used to, you still feel pains in your lower abdomen and you get easily winded. I don't want to imagine how uncomfortable you're going to get if
(Three weeks later) Sylvia's P. O. V The wedding was a success. Just like Patrick had said, they didn't come to the wedding but Tyler and Olivia did. They even brought little Jeremy with them! For a young couple, they looked really happy. I was happy and also jealous of them. We said our vows in front of the church and exchanged rings. We even had a little party. It was fun but Alex kept it short. Then announced that we'll be going to Manchester for our honeymoon. " But... That's where you studied!?" I asked the moment he told me. " Yes. And it's why I want to take you there. It's really lovely there." " Okay... Can't wait. " I muttered, grinning. He smiled and kissed me on the cheeks. I blushed slightly. The very next day, we flew out of Oklahoma to Manchester. Settling in, he became my tour guide, showing me places he had visited while studying there. There were so many places to see! And had our first night as a married couple in a reso
Patrick's P. O. V. We stayed a few more days at the hospital due to the doctor's suggestions. They needed to watch Skyler's health to see if it's recovering from the miscarriage and remove any left over blood tissue that didn't bleed out. Hours before Skyler was discharged, Sylvia called. " Hey...." She called out, her voice light and happy. I sucked in air. " Hi..." I muttered, breathing out. " How are you? How's Skyler?" " I'm fine, she's fine. We're both fine. " I said, a bit wary. " What about the baby?" She asked and I stiffened, my grip on the phone tightening. I wanted to lie but decided not to, it wouldn't make any sense. " You didn't answer that question." Sylvia said, her voice low and edged with concern. " Is everything okay?" " No. Something happened." I finally muttered, glancing at Skyler's ward. " What happened?" " Skyler had a miscarriage. She lost the baby. " " What!? " " Yeah. Two d
(Days later) Patrick's P. O. V These past few days have been hard. I sighed, thinking about the day Skyler and I argued. I tried talking to Skyler but she won't let me see her, won't answer my calls and also not reply my texts. It's confusing and frustrating. Eventually I just gave up on it. I honestly don't know what to do anymore. Picking up my phone, I got ready to go out. I need to get out of here. Sitting down and mopping around won't do any good.... Skyler's P. O. V Packing my things, I angrily dumped them in my boxes, muttering words to myself as I did it. " I can't keep a friendship, I can't keep a relationship... I can't even keep a baby! " I yelled the last bit out, slamming the box shut. Falling to the bed, I groaned out, trying to stop the tears from falling. These past few days have been freaking hard. Patrick called thousands of times, left texts but I was too scared to answer. I didn't know what to say to him. Eventually he just
