*** ALICE’S POV ***

“Just thought you’d like to know that I’m pregnant. With your man’s baby.” She winked at me and walked away with her minions, laughing. “He’s great in bed by the way!” she shouted as she continued to walk.

I froze in the middle of the corridor. I didn’t know whether she was playing a sick joke on me or whether she was telling the truth. Surely she wouldn’t go that far… Whatever the truth is I’m going to fucking kill her.

“Cass I’m gonna go home, I don’t wanna be here. I’ll just say I’m sick to my mum, okay?”

“Okay babe. I understand. I won’t tell the guys where you are or why you’re not in school or anything. I understand you’ll want to speak to Tony about it first privately.”

“Yeah… Thanks babe!” I hugged her and walked out of school. I got my phone out to text my mum and say that I’d thrown up in school, which was a massive lie, but oh well. I was in the middle of texting her when I bumped into Tony. His eyes flashed with guilt when he looked at me and I instantly knew it was true.

“I know everything Tony. I’m going home. Don’t text, call or follow me. I don’t want to see you. I can’t look at you right now.”

He grabbed my arm back and it looked like he was about to cry “Ally baby don’t! I had sex with her before we were together. I didn’t cheat. It was the night I went out with Mike and Vic. She’s probably lying about being pregnant but I did sleep with her. I’m so sorry.”

“See if it was anyone else, I would be fine about it. Because you didn’t cheat. But it was her. Of all people Tony, why the fuck would you go for her?” I started crying myself, I’ve never felt so betrayed. “Fuck yourself. I don’t want to see you. Leave me alone, it’s done.”

I can’t believe what I just said but it was the only thing I could say for him to leave me alone. I need space. I can’t help but think about the two of them together, their sweaty bodies slept together. She went for the only person I’ve ever loved. He went for the one person that hates me more than anything. And if she is pregnant, he has a child. He’s eighteen with a child and he’ll obviously want to have everything to do with it, it’s Tony. So I’m automatically out of the picture. It’s better this way. I didn’t really deserve him in the first place. I need somewhere else to go because I know Tony will come to my house, I know he will. I quickly pulled myself together and dialled the only number I thought of at that moment.

“Hello?” his voice sounded groggy, tired. It was pretty sexy, actually.

“Hey Mike, it’s Alice. Are you skipping school today?”

“I am sweetie, yeah. Is everything alright?”

“No.” my voice cracked, “T-Tony… Kerrie…” I started to sob.

“I’m coming to get you!” he hung up and I waited outside of the school grounds for him and sat on the grass with my head in my hands. I didn’t know what the fuck to do. It’s suddenly hit me that the one person I’ve loved the most has betrayed me…

It felt like seconds had passed by after I ended the phone call with Mike that his car pulled up and he got out of the driver’s side and came over to me.

“Awww, little Al. Come on. Come to my house and you can eat all the ice cream you want and cry and get Mikey cuddles.”

I nodded and he helped me up as I walked to the passenger’s side and got in and he got in the driver’s side. We set off to his house in his car in silence. When we got there he rushed round to the passenger’s side and as I got out he carried me bridal style into the house. I giggled. Mike always knows how to make me laugh. He grabbed a tub of ice cream and two spoons and we headed up to his room. He set me down on his bed and gave me a blanket. He sat across from me on the bed and sat the ice cream between us.

“Take a scoop of ice cream and then tell me everything that’s bothering you. Okay?”

I did as he said and started. “I think you probably know, about Tony and Kerrie.” He nodded for me to continue. “I just can’t believe it man, Tony of all people, like.. It’s just weird. I didn’t imagine he would be the person to hurt me. but I guess it’s the quiet ones you need to watch out for huh?”

Mike chuckled. “Yeah I guess it is little one. You should know, I lost my shit at him last night… Yesterday, when I seen you two together, I was so fucking angry because I knew about him fucking Kerrie. He clearly must not remember but I remember because I caught them. And I was also kind of hurt when I seen you two together.” He blushed.

“Well thanks for shouting at him. He deserved it. Is that why you guys weren’t answering our calls and stuff? Cause you all wanted me to find out in person?” he nodded at me and I looked down. “Why were you hurt Mikey?”

“You’re a beautiful girl. I like you. There’s something about you.”

“Thank you Mike. That’s sweet.” I smiled. “I’m just so hurt. Like I just can’t believe it. Why did he have to go for her?” I started to cry again.

Mike pulled me into a hug and petted my hair. “Shhh” he cooed. “It’s alright. He’s a fucking dick, you don’t deserve any of this… You deserve to be treated like a princess! How about you come to our party we’re having at the weekend? It’ll be good. Yeah Tone will be there but I’ll keep you two away from each other. You can get drunk with your good ol’ pal Mikey.” He chuckled and I giggled.

“Y’know, that sounds good.”

We went downstairs and started to watch a film and it was pretty boring so I started thinking about things and Mike turned round and wiped a tear away from my face. I hadn’t even noticed that it had fallen.

“What’s wrong sweetheart?”

“Tony and I always said we’d be each other’s firsts. I guess that’s out of the window… We were each other’s first everything. It was the way we’d always planned it. Now everything is all fucked.”

“Aw Ally, I understand why you’d be upset about that really. But you don’t deserve to be. You should be happy. Please be happy. I promise I’ll keep your mind off that asshole. Now smile” He gave me a big cheesy smile to try and get one back from me and I put a little grumpy face on. He then tickled me and I was laughing loudly and uncontrollably. I lay down on the couch to try and get away from his tickles but he hovered over me and tickled me more. he eventually stopped and our eyes were fixed on each other’s. I smiled at him and he leaned in so his lips were dangerously close to mine. I could almost feel his lip ring against my lip and I was intrigued by it so I hungrily smashed my lips on his. He kissed back just as hungrily as I had. This was better than any kiss I’ve ever had. He ran his fingers through my long dark hair and we kissed for what felt like ages. Maybe Mike can be my way of forgetting how hurt and broken I feel. He sat up and pulled me onto his lap, never breaking the kiss. He licked my bottom lip for entrance and I allowed it, our tongues wrestling with one another’s. The front door opened and I jumped off of him, pulling a blanket over me to hide the redness of my cheeks. Mike also pulled the blanket over his bottom half to hide his… bulge.

“Hey guys!” Vic said cheerily. Jaime and Tony followed him through the door. Tony looked at me with hopeful eyes that I was there for him and Vic’s smile wiped off. “Shit” he muttered.

“Mike can you take me home?” I looked to Mike, not daring to look at Tony.

“Yeah of course. Let me go get my keys from upstairs.” He said as he stood up to get them.

“No I’ll drive her!” Tony said, looking at Mike who was halfway upstairs.

“No. Mike can drive me.” I said sternly and walked out to Mike’s car. This is going to be awkward for a long time. I don’t even want to look at him. I can’t help but get filled up with anger, hurt, disgust whenever I look at him.
