The next morning Lucy woke up before Carter and looked up at him. He looks so gorgeous while sleeping, she thought. And now he was all hers again. Five minutes later, Carter got up too.
“Good morning beautiful.”
“Morning.”
“I slept better than ever last night.”
“Me too, so much tension in my head was relieved.”
Then they got up and took a shower together, ate breakfast and talked the whole day. Lucy told him everything about her pregnancy and how she had found out. Carter wanted to know everything, and listened keenly. So the whole day, they just made out and talked. Then at around 7 p.m. Abby called. Carter picked up the phone and glanced uncomfortably at Lucy. He told Abby he wanted to talk to her. She told him to drop by her place right now. He kissed Lucy and her stomach goodbye. He got to Abby’s place and knocked on the door.
“Coming,” said Abby, while rushing to open the door. “Carter I have been looking at some bridal magazines and think I have found the perfect dress!”
“Ummm...Abby we have to talk.”
“You sound serious.”
“Well it is serious.”
“What is it Carter?”
“Lucy and I are back together.”
“What!”
“Yeah, I just couldn’t hide my feelings for her and our child any longer.”
“Great, here I have been planning the wedding of my dreams with the man I trusted, while he was off shagging his ex-girlfriend?”
“Abby....”
“Just stop it! I knew it was too good to be true, my fiance living with his pregnant ex-girlfriend without any sexual relations! How could I have been so trusting? I thought I could trust you both and you guys cared about my feelings!”
“Abby....I’m just really sorry...”
“Carter just stop it, please leave me alone,” Abby said close to tears.
Carter nodded and left.
“So how did it go,” asked Lucy.
“Worse than most breakups”
“Ouch.”
“She was devastated.”
“She has the right to be, she must really hate us now.”
“Yup, but I have a feeling Luka won’t have to spend any more nights alone.”
Lucy gave him a look.
