Chapter 288
LILY’S POVO
It’s been five days since my dad told me everything. At first, I didn’t believe him, but I couldn’t ignore the facts when they were right in my face. Let’s just say we have been catching up on lost time after that day.
Today was currently Friday and tomorrow would be my birthday. I’ll be turning nineteen. Asher’s birthday was two days ago and if it wasn’t for him, wouldn’t have even remembered mine. I’ve been too caught up bonding with my dad and sister.
Asher kept good on his promise about calling me everyday. Sometimes we talked for hours, forgetting the time.
Today is currently Friday and I’m presently sitting on a stool in the kitchen, devouring a tub of ice cream. Soft feet padded against the floors and stopped by me. I finally lift up my head from the ice cream to stare at Daisy.
Her small timid frame stood still as she looked at me. Her long, blonde hair was put in a messy bun, a few tendrils falling loosely on her forehead. Her big, doe eyes that were covered by huge docky glasses stared at me surprised.
She was a very pretty girl, stunning in fact. If only she had confidence in herself, but I’m not the one to talk. She and I have grown closer over these few days.
“You’ve been eating a lot, Lily, are you feeling okay?” Her shy voice reached my ears. She sat down on a stool near me and looked me over.
“I don’t know, I’ve just been having some weird cravings lately.” I mumbled as I pushed yet another spoonful of ice cream in my awaiting mouth.
She cleared her throat before looking embarrassed. ” Um, can I ask you something?”
“Yeah, go ahead Dais.” I nodded.
“When was the last time you saw your period?” She whispered. At first, I didn’t understand her question until it finally hit me. I choked on the ice cream as she patted my back.
Holy shit, how couldn’t I have noticed that I haven’t seen my period for a month? It took a girl I just met a few days ago, to make me realize. Gosh, I’m so slow sometimes.
“Why do you ask that?” I was avoiding answering her and diverted my eyes somewhere else.
“I’m a med student, Lily. I think I know the symptoms of pregnancy when I see it.” She giggled. Dread filled my body with her words. I squirmed on the stool as I pushed away the half empty tub of ice cream, losing my appetite.
“It’s been a month since I last saw it.” I told her, nervousness seeping from my form as I fidget.
“Were you having unprotected sex, Lily?” Her voice didn’t hold judgment, but I felt ashamed to answer that question. I thought of it hard and bit my bottom lip when I realized that all the times Asher and I had sex, was unprotected. We were so busy trying to get close to each other, that we forgot about
protection.
Why didn’t I realize that Asher never had a condom on? Why was I now realizing that my period was late? I’m so fucking embarrassed of myself.
My head ducked as I avoided her stare “No.”
I heard an audible gasp leave her lips. “Oh, please tell me you weren’t doing it with a stranger!”
“No, no with my boyfriend.” I rushed out and lifted up my head to stare at her.
“Well, when are you going to get the pregnancy test?” She asked after a couple minutes of silence.
“Pregnancy test?” I asked, confused.

“Uh, yeah, to know if you’re really pregnant.” She spoke. Oh right, I need to get a pregnancy test.
“I’ll take one when I go back to school, I don’t want to ruin the break I’m on.” I told her.
I knew I was just prolonging taking one because the thought of being pregnant scared me. It really fucking scared me. I began sweating interdepes i

“Please don’t tell mom and dad.” I whispered as to

“I won’t, that’s not my place to tell.” She spoke and gave
me a hug and rubbed my back soothingly. Heavy footsteps were heard nearing, we looked up
and saw that Niall was approaching us. He stopped in his tracks when he saw my tear stained face.
“What’s wrong?” He asked and stared between the two ofn’t fail to see the deep blush Daisy was spotting as Niall stared at her, well more like
ogle as his eyes stayed on her for quite awhile.
“Nothing, just that I don’t know what I’ll do for my birthday tomorrow.” I lied and wiped my wet face.
“Pfft, is that why you are crying? You’re such a nerd.” He teased
sat beside us.
“How about we give you a makeover?” Niall asked and stared
at me.
“We?” Daisy squeaked in a high pitch tone before clearing her throat in embarrassment. The blush she was spotting got darker as Niall gave her a cheeky
smile.
I raised an arched brow. “Are you saying that I’m ugly?”
“No!” Niall stuttered in nervousness. Daisy chuckled at him, making him give her a playful glare. She blushed and looked down. Those two definitely have something going on.
“Chill, Niall, it was a joke. But yeah, I guess I’ll make you guys give me a makeover.” I laughed. I was willing to do anything that would distract me from thinking about the pregnancy.
“Okay, wait for us in the living room. We will be right back.” Niall chirped. He grabbed Daisy’s hand and pulled her along with him. I heard the front door slam on their way out and almost laughed at his excitement.
An hour later, Niall and Daisy came bursting through the front door with a few bags in their hands. Daisy’s face was as red as a tomato while Niall kept sneaking glances at her, his eyes heated as he studied her.
“Took you guys long enough!” I laughed.
