Bestfriend Divorced Me When I Carried His Baby (Kelly and Pierce)

A Total Mess

Kelly's POV

"W-What do you want from me?" The little girl asked with a trembling body and fearful eyes. Her tears kept on streaming down her face and she couldn't

move. It was pitch black around her. She doesn't know where she is and all she knows is a scary man is standing in front of her. At the age of 12, she developed a trauma that she will be carrying for the rest of her life and yes, that little girl is me.

My fear of darkness started when I was 12. Someone kidnapped me and caged me in a room full of darkness. I was kept in that room for 2 days. Nothing to drink. Nothing to eat. I was on the edge of death when my father miraculously came to rescue me. He was my hero. I was scared after the abduction and my rescue. I couldn't get out of my room. I couldn't find myself trusting anyone again but my father assured me that everything will be okay and he will always be by my side.

My father became my strength since my mom died when I was 10. My father, who I started hating when I realized he has another family. I was 14 when I learned about it. I was so heart broken. I couldn't forgive him. He promised to stay with me but he broke his promise an family.

"Kels..."

I felt a hand caressing my cheeks and wiping the tears that were rolling down my face. The hands

on my face were so gentle, so warm and comforting. I feel

secure. I feel comforted.

"Kels, open your eyes, please..."

Slowly, I opened my eyes. A white ceiling welcomed me and from the corner of my vision, I saw Pierce's worried face.

"Kelly?" Another person popped up behind him. It was his mother who's

looking at me with a very worried face. "Are you okay, sweetheart? We brought you to the hospital. You collapsed."

Hospital? I panicked! No! They can't find out about my pregnancy!

"There was power interruption in the venue because of an electrical problem. ith alright, sweetie No one's gonna hurt you, Mrs. Anderson held my hands, caressing them

She knows that I was kidnapped before and she thought I'm panicking.

because of it. They didn't know about the baby?

"Are you okay, Kelly? Are you hurt?" Mr Anderson asked and even when his eyes were cold, he looked genuinely worried.

I felt tears in the corner of my eyes. I pulled rpy hand from Pierce and wiped my tears. I nodded and smiled at them. "I'm fine. Thank you. I just...I just had a bad dream."

Mrs. Anderson sat on the bed and caressed my cheek. She shook her head, It's okay, sweetie. It was all just a bad dream. No one's gonna hurt you again.

I nodded and sniffed. I calmed myself down although I'm thinking about my pregnancy. They seemed clueless. I wonder if they already talked to the doctor.

I saw Phoebe sitting on the couch playing on her mobile phone. I bit my bottom lip. I haven't talked to her about what she heard and I don't think she has plans on telling her parents about what she learned.

Pierce's eyes were on me, watching me but I couldn't bring myself to look at him. I want to avoid him. Especially now that he might learn about my pregnancy. I couldn't let him know. I don't wanna let them know.

Someone knocked on the door and opened it. My heart skipped a beat when a female doctor entered wearing a beautiful smile. She looked at everyone before boring her eyes on me and her smile slowly faded as if she saw the desperation in my eyes. "Doctor, how is she?"

I swallowed hard as I stared at the female doctor. She started walking towards my bed, not taking her eyes off of me as I continuously chanted in my mind the word 'please don't'.

The female doctor averted her gaze and smiled at Mrs. Anderson in beside my bed, "She's fine, Mrs. Anderson. She fainted because of panic but she's fine. There's no complication or anything. She's...safe."

I was able to breathe properly because of what the doctor said. I looked at her

again and slowly nodded my head, thanking her for hiding the truth. She smiled. at me before she left again. She just told us that I can now go home.

"You should go home now. I'll take care of her," Pierce said to his parents.

Right! They didn't know that I'm now living in a condo. If they learned that our divorce is now processed, they'd get mad especially Pierce's dad.

"Take care of her, son." Mrs. Anderson kissed my cheek before they left.

I took a deep sigh and bit my bottom lip when we're left alone together. The silence is killing me. I don't wanna stay here with him so I cleared my throat. I was about to speak when he spoke first. "I'll send you home."

I shook my head and grabbed my bag. I took my phone out and dialed Luke's number as I looked at Pierce. "Luke will be here to pick me up."

"Are we going to fight over this again, Kelly?"

I looked at him languidly. "I'm not picking a fight."

He sucked his breath and clenched his jaws. He looked away and didn't

respond.

[Yes, miss?]

"Pick me up. I'm in the hospital."

[I'm at the parking lot, Miss. I'll be there in a minute.]

I ended the call and looked at Pierce. "I want a peaceful life, Pierce. I don't want stress. I don't want a problem. If you didn't notice, Lexi has been shooting me daggers during the party. I don't want a fight so we should draw a boundary between us or you'll see me fighting w He looked at me angrily. "Why don't you just tell me the problem, Kelly? Tell me personally so I would know. Not like this. Tell it to my face instead of shoving unreasonable alibis to my face. You just want me out of your life, right? Right? Because I hurt your pride when I div I'looked at him blankly. "I'm not shallow."

"Yes, you are! You're being childish! For God's sake, Kelly! You're gonna throw away our friendship just because I hurt your pride?"

I gritted my teeth: "Yes! That's my reason. I want you out of my life because I couldn't accept that you will throw me away just because your first love is

back."

He palmed his face. "Who said I'm throwing you away? You're being selfish, Kelly! I love her! And you know that I love you too so I decided to let you go so you could be happy with someone you deserve."

I laughed sarcastically. "You can't even stand seeing me with someone else. How can I be happy with someone I deserve, Pierce?"

"Chris is not a good man! He doesn't deserve you!"

"Then who? Who deserves me, Pierce?"

He was rendered speechless. He couldn't answer as he stared into my eyes. I know now. He's confused. He's confused with his own feelings. He loves Lexi but he can't be with her because he feels like if he started dating her, he would lose me. How pathetic!

I got off the bed and stared into his eyes. "Why don't you give me a year, Pierce? Leave me alone for a year and try to figure out what's wrong with you because from what I see, you don't want to let either of us go. You are trying to hold us in your manipulative hands, Piero
