I sat in bed, thinking about Sloan. He walked up to me and the girls earlier and I had fallen in love. His dark brown hair that shined as he walked, his black eyes that made my heart melt and his smile, so sexy that he could make any girl fall for him.When he spoke, his voice was so soothing. I felt comfortable talking to him, it was like I had known him all my life. We talked about a lot that I didn't even realize how fast time had gone till he had to go back to work. I protested a bit but stopped when he asked me to meet him for coffee later.After he left I sat there, missing him already. I didn't know this side of me was still alive, I smiled to myself, feeling like a teenager until I heard a voice.I looked up and my mood instantly changed. It was john, my ex boyfriend. When I first got into college, he was one of my first friends and my first boyfriend. I loved him a lot and I thought he loved me too. He shattered my heart when he dumped me for Nick
One week later, Sloan and I were closer than ever. We weren't dating but we were closer than some couples. We promised to always be there for each other and so far, we've been doing that just fine.Daddy wanted me to go back home but I let him know that I couldn't because I was looking for a job. Back when I was in Montana, we usually depended on whatever daddy made from his bakery and it wasn't much so I wanted to get a good job so I could help him.I lost my mom when I was very little and daddy never remarried since then because he spent all his time working. The least I could do was to make sure he lived a comfortable life.After two weeks of searching with no luck, I told Sloan about it and he promised to help me. He called later that day that he
I sat across Rufus at the restaurant feeling uncomfortable. Daddy pestered me for the whole day and he even got sloan to beg me before I finally agreed to go out with him and now that I'm here, I'm not saying anything. I'm not the shy type, it's just that it feels weird being here with him."So, uh what do you do?." I tried to make small talks to get rid of the uncomfortable silence we shared."Well, I'm a deputy at the sheriff's department." He answered confidently."Oh, so you're a cop?.""Yes.""I don't like cops.""Ohh.." The smile on his face vanished and we didn't say anything else for a while."So, what about you, what do you do?""Um--" I started but was interrupted."It doesn't even matter because when we're married, you won't work again. I'll provide for both of us." He smiled like what he said was funny, but it only annoyed me."Why won't I work?, besides I never said I was going to marry you.""
I had so much fun in Montana that when the week ended, I didn't want to go back to las Vegas. I had to though, because my entire life was there.When I went back to las Vegas, I went to see the doctor because I had made an appointment earlier and the news he gave me almost gave me a heart attack."What?!" I screamed out in shock."You're three weeks pregnant ma'am." Doctor Peter repeated."No that can't be possible, there must be some kind of mistake." I started to pace around like I usually did whenever I was nervous."I'm afraid not. You can ask about me anywhere I assure you, you'll find only positive reviews. But if you're still having doubts, you can have the test at any other hospital, you'll get the same result." He confidently said.I sank into the chair behind me feeling terrible. I promised daddy that I would make him proud and now I was pregnant. For a split sec
I dialed Sloan's number one more time hoping he would answer this time but it was the same, it kept ringing but he didn't answer. That would make it the thirteenth time this week, since our dinner a week ago I haven't been able to reach him.He stopped visiting his mom's pizza shop and she said he hardly answered her calls either. I told Naomi and she tried calling him too but he didn't answer."You said you told him you were pregnant last week right?""Yeah and he said he was okay with it. I'm just worried, I hope he's okay.""You hope he's okay?, I'm saying what if he's avoiding you because of it?""He wouldn't do that, he loves me. He told me he'll always be there for me when I need him.""Yeah well where is he now?""Let's not jump to conclusions.""Yes, let's not do that. Instead let's go and find out for ourselves.""How?""We'll go to the hospital he works and confront him.""What if we'r
Henry."Honey, how long are you going to keep living this way?""What way?""You're not getting any younger, don't you think you should get married.""Why, is it necessary?""Henry,""Mom, why do you think marriage is necessary?, I mean I'm not married yet I'm so happy.""Honey. You need to get married, I actually have some in mind.""Who?""You know Joyce right?""Dad's business partner's daughter?""Yes. She's pretty.""I don't like her. She's too forward.""Okay, how about Nora?""Nah, we broke up a week ago.""Rachel?""She's married.""What?, But you were dating.""Not really.""Phoebe?""I never liked her."
"Is he answering?""No, it just keeps ringing.""Olivia, try calling him also.""Okay.""Why is Sloan doing this to me?, It's been two weeks now and I haven't been able to reach him.""Did you text him?""Of course. I texted him like a million times, but he never replied any.""Did you guys fight?""No, the last time I saw him was when we went out on our last date when we went to the beach.""You went to the hospital last time with Naomi right?""Yeah.""Why don't you go again?, At least to find out what's going on.""Olly's right, come on.""Already?""What, do you wanna wait till tomorrow?""No, we can go now."I tried calling Sloan all the way but he didn't answer. I was very worried, I hope nothi
I woke up feeling slightly better than before, I was happy I got to see my mom one more time. I decided to take her advice and keep living, instead of beating myself up for nothing, even though it wasn't going to be easy.I went out and while I was preparing breakfast, Naomi came out and saw me. "You're up early." She said as she sat on a stool in the kitchen. "Good to see that you finally decided to come out of your room.""Yeah. I'm sorry I made you guys worried.""Nah it's cool.""Thanks.""So, what're you doing?""I woke up early and thought I should do something nice for my best friends.""Aww how thoughtful of you.""Is olly still sleeping?""Yeah. She slept pretty late last night.""Okay.""So, what're we having for breakfast?""Pancakes.""Hmm my f
