*Listen, we need to talk.* AJ said to Dana, sitting her down on one of the couches in the lobby.
*About what baby?* She asked as she climbed on to his lap and started kissing his neck.
*About me and you...* He said and she continued to kiss his neck.
*Mmm... what about us baby?* She asked grinding her hips against his groin as she pushed her hands under his shirt and ran her nails over his bare skin.
*Uh... nevermind.* He said kissing her lips and falling back on to the couch with him.
*I love you.* She said nibbling his bottom lip.
*I love you too.* He replied letting his dick control his mind. He couldn't even remember what he was going to talk to her about, he hated that she could do that to him. So he continued to date Dana and every time Meg saw them together she felt sick and he felt guilty. He wanted to be with Meg, not Dana but Dana was so seductive...
Meg had been getting sick a lot lately. It had been about six weeks since her and AJ's little midnight fling and she hadn't gotten her period.
*Sara!!* Meg yelled pounding on the door of Sara and Nick's hotel room until someone answered.
*What?* Sara asked frantically, opening the door to Meg's tears and she let her right in and hugged her.
*My life is over.* Meg said wiping her face.
*Baby,* Sara said walking over to Nick in the kitchen. *Do you mind?*
*Not at all,* He said turning around and kissing her softly and then he smiled weakly at Meg and walked out the door.
*I think I'm pregnant.* Meg blurted out as soon as Nick shut the door.
*WHAT? How?* Sara asked, totally not expecting those words from Meg. She expected her to say she got in a fight with AJ or something, but then again, Meg was not the type of girl to make things more than they were.
*Rephrase: I know I'm pregnant.* Meg corrected herself as the tears streamed down her face.
*Meg hunny... you're sure?* Sara asked, not wanting to believe it as she paced back and forth.
*Well I took the test... I mean those things work right? And I haven't gotten my period yet.* She explained sniffling.
*Alright who's is it?* Sara asked cringing before Meg answered because she knew who's it was.
*You know who's it is...* Meg said lifting her watery eyes to look at Sara.
*Oh this is just grrrreat!* Sara yelled, throwing her arms in the air. *So that means you're like almost three months already?* Sara asked.
*No, only a little more than a month it happened again, right after we got to New York.* Meg said timidly, not wanting Sara to scold her but Sara just sat on the couch and put her hands on her head.
*What are we gonna do?* Sara asked sighing as she leaned back into the couch and Meg sat down next to her. Her tears had ceased and she was just sniffling. *What do you want to do?*
*I don't know, this is the worst thing that could've happened to me.* Meg replied as she let her head fall back in despair.
*Look, I know this is hard for you right now. But crying isn't going to get you anywhere.* Sara said as she saw new tears forming in Meg's eyes. *Have you thought of abortion?* Sara asked and Meg lifted her head, with her eyes wide open as she stared at Sara.
*Yeah I thought about it... but I couldn't do that. It was my decision to have sex so... that's that.* Meg explained and Sara smiled, as though she was proud of her friend. And she was, she knew Meg was never into abortion, she didn't despise it but Sara knew she'd never be able to do it.
*Well, at least you have your priorities straight.* She said smiling and Meg smiled a little through her tears. *Comere.* Sara said pulling her in for a hug and Meg cried on her shoulder as she stroked her hair for a little bit.
*I don't know what I'm gonna do... and how am I gonna tell AJ?* Meg asked backing away from the hug. That was the second hardest thing telling AJ. He'd hate her.
*Shh... we'll figure everything out later.* Sara said softly. *Everything's gonna be fine.*
The months went by... Meg had decided not to go to college for obvious reasons and Sara decided the same, but she was planning to leave the tour soon. AJ was still with Dana and he didn't talk to Meg that much. They both tried to avoid each other, AJ ashamed that he couldn't tell her how he felt about her and Meg afraid to tell him what she was hiding from him.
*Listen guys, Meg's leaving and I think it would be nice if we threw her a going away party.* Sara said to all of the guys and Dana, Leighanne, and Kristin.
*Why is she leaving?* Brian asked her and Sara looked at AJ, who was trying to look uninterested and doing a very bad job at it.
*I don't really know,* Sara lied. *I think she's had enough and just wants to go home.* Sara explained. They decided to throw her a party on Friday because her flight was Saturday. It was just gonna be a small party, with them and some of their friends that Meg didn't know. When Meg walked down into the dining room of the hotel that night she was surprised to see all of the people there. Seeing AJ brought back flashbacks to that night when she first arrived in Florida. Meg was wearing a normal t-shirt, not too tight, with the sleeves rolled up so no one would notice. She wasn't very big, even though she was almost 5 months along. She walked around and talked to a lot of the people that were there even though she didn't know them.
*Here, I got you a drink.* AJ said walking up to her and handing her a beer.
*Thanks, but I don't want it.* She was determined to have a normal baby, and she wasn't going to drink and ruin everything. She placed it on the counter away from her.
*Can I talk to you?* AJ asked her and she looked into his eyes. She really wished she could have him and be with him and tell him that she loved him. *Come outside with me.* He added and Meg followed him outside, figuring she was leaving tomorrow and it would be nice to talk to him before she left. *Why are you going?* AJ asked as soon as they were outside.
*Why should I stay?* She asked him as she looked into his eyes and he looked down. *Yeah, that's why I'm going.* She added. *I'm really sorry that things didn't work out between us... we woulda been good together.* Meg admitted because she knew that he knew they'd be good together too and he smiled at her. She felt tears sting her eyes as she thought of leaving but it wasn't leaving that made her so sad it was the fact that the father of her baby was standing right in front of her and he didn't know shit he even had a girlfriend. All she knew was that she didn't want to be one of those mothers who raises a baby on her own but that's what was going to happen. *I'm sorry,* She apologized for crying as she turned towards the street.
*Meg... just stay.* AJ said, not knowing what else to say as he stood behind her. He couldn't figure her out these past two months and he wanted to know so badly what was going on in her head.
*I'm not staying but I'm sure I'll see you when you get in Florida... whenever that is.* She said still facing the street but it sounded like she had stopped crying.
*It's not for like another 5 months, or 6.* AJ said. *Do you really want to wait that long?* He asked, pulling her arm so she'd turn around.
*It's not that I want to, I have to. Plus, what am I waiting for?* She asked looking into his eyes. *For you to come back so you can torture me more by being with Dana in front of my face? Frankly, I'd rather have you be with her a million miles away from me instead of right in front of me.* Meg finished and it was quiet for a minute so Meg gave up and started to walk back inside.
AJ grabbed her arm and turned her around. *Let me kiss you...* He whispered.
*Remember the last time you said that to me? I went home and cried for a week, that's not what I want.* Meg said still looking at him with their faces only mere inches apart.
*Please, just once.* He said softly, begging her with his beautiful eyes. He wanted to kiss her so bad... he missed kissing her and he wanted to tell her right then that he loved her and not Dana but since she was leaving he figured she had something better to go to in Florida. He wanted to take that night and do it over and over again and he thought about it all the time. About how good she felt and how right they both felt when they were together. He didn't want her to say no so he kissed her passionately. After about two minutes he pulled away, still tasting her on his lips. He'd never forget her taste.
*I'm gonna miss you,* AJ said, pausing for a moment to see if she'd change her mind but she didn't. *Well I'll think about you every day... and Ill see you in six months.* He said kissing her lips softly one more time and then looked at her. After a minute of silence he walked back into the hotel and Meg walked back in about five minutes later.
~He's not fair. How can he say those things to me? Does he just want me to fall head over heels for him over and over so he can hurt me over and over?~ Meg asked herself. The rest of the night was pretty shitty because she couldn't stop thinking of him. She finally just went to bed at about one and woke up at seven to catch her plane. Sara went with her to the airport and saw her off. When she got back to the house in Tampa she felt really awkward. She hadn't spent more then a couple days there before she went on tour so she wasn't familiar with it at all and she was all alone. Almost every morning she would get sick and then cry because no one was there for her. After a month alone she couldn't take it and called her friend Matt.
Meg was grateful for Matt staying with her while she was pregnant. He didn't live far, they had been friends when she lived with her parents and she knew he moved down here. They went out and laughed a lot and it made things easier for her not to think of AJ.
