Memories That Fade Like Photographs.

I woke up and Alex was slipping on his boxers. I put on a pair of his shorts and a t-shirt of his under the covers and went to the bathroom.

"Hey." he breathed, catching me by the waist and pulling me in to kiss him.

He kissed me roughly, shoving his tongue into my mouth. He'd never been like this with me, but I liked it. I tried to pull away to get to the bathroom, but it was too late. I threw up all over his chest. He guided me to the toilet where I emptied my stomach.

"Great. I have sex with my best friend and then she pukes all over me!" he breathed, holding me close when I finished. I dug my nose into his chest.

"You stink." I commented.

"Not my fault, love." he mumbled, withdrawing from me.

"I wasn't finished!" I whined.

"Come here, Goober." he mumbled, pulling me in for a heated kiss. We broke off and he held me.

"You're wearing my clothes." he commented.

"I know." I giggled.

"I love it. I love it when you wear my clothes. I love it when you kiss me. I loved it when we wrestled and you beat me. I love how you know everything about me. Even the things I try to keep from you. I love you, August Jasmine Rae James." he confessed.

"Why, I love you, too, Alexander William Gaskarth." I smirked and we kissed again.

Three Weeks Later

I had my suspicions, but I wasn't sure. Between missing my period and puking every morning, I could only hope I wasn't pregnant. I grabbed a pregnancy test and walked to the counter. Luckily, Zack was there and not some random kid who would probably spread it around that I was pregnant.

"Hey August, fancy seeing you at this lovely pharmaceutical establishment on this fine day!" Zack smiled.

"Ugh, you know I hate it when you use big words, Zachary." I groaned.

"That's a big word." he pointed out.

"I know." I smiled.

"So why are you buying a pregnancy test?" he asked seriously.

"Promise you won't tell Alex?" I asked, looking around for eavesdroppers.

"Of course." he replied softly.

"I think I might be pregnant. And if I am, Alex is the father." I told him.

"What makes you think that?" he asked.

"I've been throwing up and I missed my period. And Alex's the only person I ever had sex with." I answered honestly.

"When are you planning on telling him?" Zack asked.

"I don't know." I answered.

"Better do it soon. The longer you put it off the madder he'll be when you do tell him." Zack advised.

"Thanks, Zack. You always know what to say." I smiled.

"It's a talent." he smiled back and I left.

I walked into Alex's bathroom. It was time for the moment of truth. I waited and then looked. Positive. Okay, fine. I'm having my best friend's baby. But how to tell said best friend was beyond me.

Notes

So I realize I omitted this chapter by mistake, and the last part is kind of important to the plot. So I have to repost all the chapters from here on. Sigh. Oh well.
