“I don't need to interview more people because I already made up my mind” I said, sighing. “These hours we spend talking and asking questions, made me realize that you two are the type of parents any kid would love and dream to have. You're dedicated, loving, caring, and most of all. . .You actually care for each other, I couldn't stop noticing how Henry was glancing at you with so much adoration, it was beautiful. I want for this baby parents that are like that, that can teach he or her to love and be generous with others. I believe you will become great parents” I said. Erin burst in tears and hugged me, trying not to do it too tightly because of my stomach. I wrapped my arms around her, smiling. When she pulled away, she covered her mouth with both of her hands, her nose and cheeks were tinted red due to the crying. Her husband wrapped his arms from behind her, resting his chin on top of her hair.
“Thank you so much” she said under her breath, but I heard it loud enough. I nodded and grabbed my mom's hand, leaving towards the main door. With one last wave, we walked outside. I let go a heavy sigh, and opened the passenger's door. My mom didn't turn the engine on quite yet, she kept looking at me.
“You really liked them” she said.
“Yeah, I saw in them what I truly want. . .I don't need to see someone else. Though I have to talk to Finn about this, I'm just afraid of how he will react” I let go a heavy sigh, fidgeting with my fingers. My mom patted my knee, giving me an encouraging smile.
“You will find the right words; I know you will” she said. I nodded, folding my arms, and stared out the window. The right words, huh? This will just be harder than I thought. Though I feel that Finn will probably be happy with all this. I mean, it's basically a win-win situation. I can give the baby to someone that can actually care for him/her. Nobody finds out about this, and I can end my studies and go to College. Well, easier said than done, but I can try at least. I just can't cease to imagine all the possible things he will say, his reaction, everything.
God, how can I even start a conversation with the subject of adoption?
Chapter 48 - Lies UnfoldFinn's P.O.V
@FinnHarries: She's NOT my girlfriend! And that baby is not mine. As I said: She's just a friend who happens to be pregnant with a baby that is obviously not mine. I'm too young to be a dad anyway.
@FinnHarries: Girls, calm down, I'm not a dad.
@FinnHarries: WE'RE NOT DATING, AND THAT BABY'S NOT MINE!! Geez.
@FinnHarries: How many times I have to say that I'm not dating anyone!? I'm single like a pringle ready to. . .Mingle ;) Lol.
I re-read all those awful tweets I had written. Why am I so stupid!? I could delete them, but people could get suspicious, plus they already read it. I watched those videos they were making, and honestly, this is getting out of control. I stared at the picture I took of Gwen when she was resting her head on my shoulder. Even when she sleeps she looks so beautiful. I can't believe why do I always have to mess everything up.
I let go a heavy sigh and stared at the ceiling, I had planned to make a video, but nothing makes sense anymore. I don't want to do any of those things after I saw all these girls talking shit. But then again, this is all my fault. I basically encouraged them to do so. Since I didn't say the truth, they just started thinking Gwen is a whore, which she's not. The guilt and the pain is eating me alive, and I can't help but feel useless. I want to make things right, but I don't know how. There's nothing I can do that won't affect my career and relationship with Gwen. I'm thinking as hard as I can, but nothing. . .I just want this nightmare to be over already.
Gwen's P.O.V
Prom is just three weeks away. . .I am so freaking nervous. I've never felt this anxious before. I can't believe Finn will be my date. I know a lot of girls would die to be in my position right now. I am just so lucky to be attending probably one of the biggest nights of my life, with a really special someone.
I started humming a song happily, sighing dreamily as I stared at my precious white dress. I ran my fingertips through the fabric, thinking how he will probably love it just as much as I do.
Suddenly, someone barged into my room, making me jump with fear, abruptly turning around, just to see Dani with a frantic expression. “What's wrong!?” I asked concerned as I saw her features. She was angry, I knew whenever she was. Her left eye starts twitching and her breathing starts to get heavy, plus her eyebrows furrow so much they seem like they're about to touch. She was more than furious.
“I can't believe what that asshole did to you!” she said. Now I was the one furrowing my eyebrows, confused with her words.
“Excuse me?” I asked, folding my arms. She was pacing back and forth in my room, scaring me as she tried to even her breath, it wasn't working. I wanted to hold her, to calm her down, but she didn't want to stop.
“Haven't you seen what the father of that baby you're carrying has been saying about you on Twitter?” she asked, and with a bitter laugh she added, “what a fucking coward” I couldn't understand what the hell was she talking about. And the fact that she wouldn't stop going in circles, cursing under her breath, wasn't helping the case. With a feverish movement, she walked towards my bed and sat down, balling her fists.
“What is going on?” I asked.
“Y-you don't know?” she asked in disbelief.
I shook my head. “If I knew why you were so angry, I would be angry along with you, right?”
She let go a heavy sigh, resting her arms on her knees for a moment before looking back at me. “Finn fucking Harries has been denying about being the father of the baby”
“What?”
“On Twitter, they posted a picture of you two walking together, and they noticed you were pregnant. Fans got crazy and started saying that Finn is the father—which is entirely true—but he's been saying that he is not your boyfriend, neither the father of this baby”
My world stopped. Everything around me stopped. “That can't be true, Finn would defend us, he could never throw me under the bus. . .He-he isn't like that!” one tear rolled down my cheek, but I quickly wiped it away. Dani stared at me with an apologetic look on her face. “Dani, that can't be true” my voice cracked. I don't want to even think this could be real, that he actually said those things. But then again, Dani would never lie to me about this.
Is that the real reason why he didn't want me to follow him?
“I'm so sorry, G. But-but that's not it. . .” she said and stood up, retrieving her phone from her pocket. She typed a few things and then walked towards me, making me face the screen of her phone.
“It's one of the multiple videos made by one of his fans, talking about you” she explained. I stayed quiet while I watched attentively.
“Hey guys! I am Jenny, and today's video is about this mystery girl we saw accompanying our so loved Finn Harries” she started, and a picture of Finn and I popped in the screen. “Oh, my God, is this really her!? I thought she would be prettier. Of course she's probably this stupid whore seeking for attention. Like girl, please! Get a fucking life” she giggled, while I felt how my heart was pounding hard inside my chest. My hands were shaking and heart was cracking. I could actually hear my poor fragile heart breaking in a billion pieces. Her words are so hurtful, I am not a whore! “Poor Finn, how can he be so dumb to actually hang out with this girl? It's probably just pity. This girl looks like she could be a slut, sleeping around with everyone. I bet she slept with Cameron Phillips and Shawn Mendes too. Oh, my God, perhaps she just wants money! What a bitch. . .”
I can't believe this! I forcefully grabbed Dani's phone and got into her account to see Finn's tweets, even though I don't want to, but I just have to know. . .
@FinnHarries: She's NOT my girlfriend! And that baby is not mine. As I said: She's just a friend who happens to be pregnant with a baby. I'm too young to be a dad anyway.
@FinnHarries: How many times I have to say that I'm not dating anyone!? I'm single like a pringle ready to. . .Mingle ;) Lol.
@FinnHarries: It's just a random fan that came to me, nothing happened between us, alright? Expect new video this Friday :)
@FinnHarries: Girls, relax, do you think I would be that stupid to actually sleep with a girl like that and then become a dad at just 18? Wow. Do you really believe everything you see online?
@FinnHarries: We are NOTHING! Stop with the drama because I am not a dad, neither have a girlfriend at the moment. I'm not that stupid. . .
Every tweet, every comment, every picture I saw insulting me, it was too much. Did he really hide all this from me? I remember that day, in the picture, that was like three months ago approximately. He hid this from me, for three months? How could he? Why me? Why, why, why? Why was I so stupid to actually believe that he could possibly have something for me? To actually love me? He's just a conceited asshole that cares more about his 'fame' than me. . .
“Gwen—”
“Don't try to tell me that everything will be alright because nothing you say can help how I'm feeling right now” I said, countless tears streaming down my cheeks. I caressed my stomach, and felt like punching the wall, but that wouldn't help at all. I broke down, my chest rising up and down, I covered my face with both of my hands and cried, and cried, and cried. Dani hugged me tightly, caressing my back soothingly as she shushed me.
After what seemed like forever, I pulled away and tried to take deep breaths, but it was getting hard with this moment, with all these girls' hate. I wanted the ground to swallow me and make me disappear.
“Maybe we could—”
“I just want to be alone, Dani. Thank you for telling me, but the last thing
