The Next Day
I wake up to an empty spot on the bed, where Alex was sleeping last night. I get up and enter the kitchen. As I'm rubbing my eyes and my vision clears up, I see Alex in the kitchen making breakfast.
"Good Morning." He smiles at me. "What are you making?" I asked him, walking closer to him. "Pancakes, eggs, bacon, and toast." He told me as he hands me a piece of already cooked bacon.
"First off, it smells and tastes delicious. But we still have to talk to Tess today." I told him. "I know." He tells me. "I'm still trying to figure out what to do about the whole situation." He continued.
"I know that you're in a tough position but, have you decided who you're going to be with in the end?" I asked him. He puts breakfast on the table and sighs.
"I still don't know. I've been with Tess for so long that I feel like it all went to waste. She may never forgive me once we tell her so it's not like I have much of a choice." He tells me.
"I shouldn't have ruined your perfect relationship with Tess. She might forgive you but she may never forgive me. And if you do choose her then at least the both of you can be happy without me there to ruin it." I told him.
"That won't happen. Both of you are pregnant because of me and it's my responsibility to help take care of the babies. No matter who I end up with, I'll be there for you both." He reassures me. "Now let's eat before the food gets cold."
We sit down at the table and eat breakfast. After we finished we cleaned up and got ready for the day.
"You can use the bathroom first." Alex told me. "My other clothes are dirty so I don't have anything to wear." I said, looking down at the shirt he gave me to wear. "Don't worry, I'll go buy you some new clothes while you shower." He said as he grabbed his jacket and left.
I grabbed a towel and a rag from out of the hallway closet and went to take a shower. When I got out I wrapped the towel around my body and laid on the bed. I must've dozed off because I didn't hear Alex come back until I heard him talk.
"You'll catch a could if you lay in a wet towel like that." I heard him say as I sit up to see him holding out clothes for me. "Thanks. You really didn't have to do that." I told him.
"It's fine. I'm going to hop in the shower while you get dressed." He told me as he disappeared into the bathroom.
I got dressed and waited on the bed.
While Alex was showering I heard his phone ring. I reached over the to the nightstand to see that it was Tess. I had also saw that he had a bunch of texts messages from her and a couple from someone named "Jenna".
Just then Alex came into the room soaking wet with a towel wrapped around his waist, where you could see his V line.
"Who is it?" He asked me. "It's Tess. Have you've been ignoring her all day? And who the hell is Jenna?" I asked him. He walks closer to me, grabs his phone from out my hand, and places it back on the nightstand.
"We have bigger things to focus on." Alex says as he placed his hand on my stomach and then grabbed my waist.
"Stop trying to change the subject and answer my questions." I demanded.
