My Hot Alpha

My shoulders sagged as a sigh fell from my lips. No, I wasn't. I was hormonal, exhausted, emotional and my body ached. Tears welled in my eyes as I shook my head. "Hey". He whispered. "Come here". Lifting me into his arms he carried me up the lawn and into our house. With my head against his shoulder, I closed my eyes. I didn't open them again until I felt the softness of our bed against my back.

"My feet are dirty". I spoke.

"Doesn't matter". He kissed the top of my head. "I'm sorry you're feeling this way, Leah. I wish I could make it better".

I grabbed a hold of his hand. "Please stay here with me". I didn't want to be on my own. I wanted to be in the comfort of his arms and fall asleep on his chest. "Okay babe".

My eyes were sore and red. I couldn't seem to switch off which meant I couldn't fall asleep. Because I couldn't sleep Jake wouldn't. I would catch him every so often nodding off, but he would jerk himself back awake. "Jake". I whispered.

"Hm".

"Please go to sleep".

"Do you want me to go make you some tea?". He asked.

"I want you to go to sleep".

"Okay baby". His lips found mine. "I love you".

"I love you too".

It wasn't long before I could hear the slight snores coming from him. I managed to sneak out of bed and make my way downstairs. I made some tea before getting comfortable on the couch.

There was no point in being in bed if I couldn't sleep. I had the tv on but was more interested in scrolling through my phone. I liked going on facebook every so often just to see how everyone was doing. That's when I received a message from Ryan.

'Lunch tomorrow shorty?'

I hadn't heard from him in weeks. I didn't like that our friendship seemed to have fizzled out. We hardly spoke, rarely saw each other. But he was busy with getting ready for university and here I was pregnant at eighteen. My life was going to change drastically.

'Call me tomorrow'

After sending the message I put my phone on do not disturb. I had to at least try and get some sleep. I had a feeling tomorrow was going to be eventful.
