Rachel

I quickly step out of the front door. I can't breath. My chest getting tighter and tighter. I should have told Jacob about Matty years ago. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad. Maybe Jacob would have wanted to come back. I felt dizzy and sit in the cooler that's by the swing porch. I bend down and hang my head. I feel so dizzy and sick. Stupid me. I shouldn't have drank anything today. I rub my face, fighting back the tears. Why now. !?!? Why today? With so many people here. Why the fuck did David have to come? This was almost over and Jacob and Zoe would have gone home knowing nothing.

"Hi" I hear a breathless pissed voice. I don't want to look up. " Are you stocking me?" I say breathless.

"No you're sitting on the cooler that my fiancé would like to have a drink from."

I get up and walk off...

"Hold the fuck up Rachel. We need to talk."

I stop but I don't dare turn around, "Not right now. You have a party." I say

"Is he mine Rachel?" I can hear the pain and anger intertwine in Jacob's voice. It pierces my heart. Tears flowing down my cheeks, but I still don't turn around.

"Not now Jacob." I beg him, walking towards the side of the house.

"STOPPPPP!!!!!" Jacobs roars, causing me to freeze. "RACHEL!! WE'RE TALKING NOW!!!"

He's so loud. Fearing others will hear him, I race up to his face, staring him in the eyes. I might have screwed this up and I might be the worse person in the world, but I did it to protect the two men I love. Looking into Jacobs eyes I realize that my protection might have done nothing more than hurt them both. "Not now," I whisper, not to get anyone's attention.

"Now Rachel" Jacob coldly repeats, staring back at me. When he try's to grab my arm, I jump back and quickly walk off. My head pounding like a knife being stabbed into my skull.

Need Rachel more drunk before confrontation Then try to think straight. And move away from Jacob.

"Stop it Jacob!" I slur as I get closer to the guests hoping Jacob will stop bantering me.

" Rachel talk to me or I'll talk to Matty."

"There's the groom-to-be everyone!!" the guests cheer and applaud as i realize Jacob and I walked right onto the plywood that was put together for the dance floor. "Let's have the bride and groom-to-be open up the dance floor." Katie's voice surrounds the backyard, using a microphone, as guests begin to clap, suuraonding the dance floor.

Jacob, looks at everyone in frustration. I smile. Good. He's going to be busy for now. I say to myself. Zoe walks to meet Jacob. I turn around to get off the makeshift dance floor.

"Rachel!" I feel my hand being tugged back and my body swirling around facing Jacob.

"YESSSSSSS!!" I scream, " is that what you want to hear. YES!!" Heaving, I was trying to catch my breath, "You left me pregnant!!" I scream, now, the champagne is taking over.

"But we..." Jacob mumbles in confusion.

Tears involuntary falling out of my tear ducts, " that we aborted the baby. Yes we did. The first one. Don't you remember the last night before you left?" My voice cracks as I let out everything I caged in my heart.

Jacob nods his head, still dumbfounded, "Yes." He whispers.

"Well, congratulations. It's a boy!!" I announce throwing my hands in the air, " Surprise everyone!!" I shout to all the guest, with frozen expressions staring at me, "Jacobs a father!!!"

Than everything went black...
