"Don't forget to pick up the cake before you come!", Lulu reminds me through the phone.

"Yes master"

I'm currently driving to the bakery since Lulu loves to do everything last minute.

This morning I didn't throw up thankfully, so I think the flu went away.

"Thank you", I smile at the baker grabbing the pink huge box the cake is in heading towards my car.

I decide to take a peek to see how the cake looks like. "Aww", I whisper to myself seeing a picture of Juliah of one of her photoshoots where she's covered in cake smiling throwing her hands up.

30 minutes later

"Finally", Lulu huffs opening the door grabbing the cake.

I step inside noticing everyone is already here having a good time.

"You look beautiful", Joanna splutters hugging me.

"Thank you so do you", I smile.

"You look different", Veronica chirps warily looking at me.

"Really? How?", I furrow my brows.

"I don't know can't quite point it out, but it's a good different"

"Are you drunk already?", I chuckle.

Joanna silently nods at me earning a smack on the back of her head by Veronica causing all of us to burst out in laughter.

I make my way outside to the backyard craving BBQ ribs.

"It smells so good!", I say out loud to Jesiah who's grilling while sipping some beers with his friends.

"Your fat ass is here already", Jesiah chuckles making the guys laugh.

"Shut up!", I throw him a playful stern glare taking a seat on the table.

"Is Nathan coming or what?"

"Yeah he'll be here in 30 minutes. He wanted to go grab some beers for your fat ass", I throw a piece of napkin at him.

Suddenly I hear his voice and I instantly look straight ahead seeing Eli exit out of the house.

A huge smile forms on my lips by his presence. He's wearing a black button up shirt with a burgundy tie with black dress pants. He looks so freaking hot.

I swear he looks so good in everything from bum to normal to business man. He's the definition of perfection no matter what he dresses like, but I'll admit seeing him dressed all business like sure turns me on.

My stomach does a horrible back flip quickly losing my appetite. The smile I had seconds ago suddenly falters as I see a blonde in a flower dress intertwine her fingers with his completely popping out of nowhere.

I can feel my lip quiver wanting to cry right here right now, but I swallow the thick lump in the back of my throat trying to remain strong.

"Wassup bro", Eli bro hugs Jesiah and the guys completely ignoring me.

"This is my girlfriend Paige", he introduces to Jesiah and the guys.

My heart shatters hearing those four venomously words come out of Eli's mouth.
I can feel the lump forming in the back of my throat making it a struggle to not cry right now.

I abruptly stand up from the chair walking away from the crowd.

"Gia!", Eli shouts bring me to a halt.

I swallow snapping my head back trying to keep my posture calm.

"This is my girlfriend Paige"

"Paige this is Gia", Eli smirks at me clearly trying to get under my skin.

I feel so much hurt and sadness, but that quickly turns into anger seeing Eli's stupid smirk.

"Nice to meet you.. your so pretty", Paige smiles extending her hand out to me.

This girl seems so nice, but I hate her already. But I won't let that show.

"Thank you.. your so pretty also", I grin shaking her hand.

"You picked right Eli congrats", I smile beaming at him.

"I know I think she's the one", Eli scoffs wrapping his arms around her waist.

The one?

I suddenly feel the urge to throw up from seeing how he's wrapping his arms that used to wrap around my waist now on Paige's waist.

"You two make a great couple.. how long have you guys been dating?", I bluntly say.

Great you had to ask

"Thank you and just 2 weeks", Paige smiles at Eli.

Two weeks ha

"Beer is here!", Nathan announces out loud as he comes out of the house with two boxes of beer.

"That's my fiancé", I evilly smile looking at Paige ignoring Eli's glare.

"Oh my god your engaged?!"

"Yup", I pop the "p".

"Congratulations"

"Thank you"

"Let's go babe", Eli chirps.

"Nice chatting with you", Paige smiles.

I'm so sizzled by all of this. How dare Eli call her babe. If that's how he wants to play then I'll play too.

An hour later

Everyone is eating, dancing, and drinking it up having fun. The party theme is Minnie Mouse everything came out so adorable just for Juliah.

I never knew party planning and getting everything together from decorations, treats, goodies, and shopping for all the details such as jars, party specific bags, and every tools needed for the treats was such a hassle.

But once everything comes together on the day of the party it's so worth it seeing Juliah smiling on her big day.

"I can't wait to have our own little creation", Nathan whispers in my ear.

"Yeah me too", I blankly respond to busy glaring at Eli and Paige who are flirting with each other across from us.

"Oysters anyone?", Jesiah announces opening the grill.

Everyone cheers excitedly getting up forming a line including myself.

I love oysters they're a great source of vitamin as well.

Eli decides to stand behind me with Paige right next him.

Ugh

It's finally my turn and as soon as I look down at the oysters smelling their smell I become nauseous.

"Are you okay?", Jesiah furrows his brows.

I put my hands over my mouth feeling the throw up literally in my throat making its way out of my mouth.

I bolt to the restroom luckily there was no one occupying it, so I slam the door kneeling down on the floor vomiting in the toilet.

Seriously the one day I don't throw up in the morning this happens.

The door squeaks open, "get out please", I mumble throwing up more.

"It's Paige.. I came to check up on you", she innocently says.

"I'm okay I think the seafood got me nauseous that's all", I huff letting out a breath as I stand up flushing the toilet.

"Are you pregnant?", Paige mumbles as we both step outside the restroom heading towards the backyard to join the party.

"No there's n-", I was about to say until I freeze thinking when was the last time I had my period.

There's no way

I mean Eli must of used a condom all of those times we slept together right?

"Gia?", Paige furrows her brows examining me.

I could hear her, but for some reason I can't react nor respond to her right now.

"Oh my god! Everyone Gia is pregnant!", Paige shouts out to everyone.

Everyone snaps their heads beaming at me. Some gasp from the news, some cheer, the rest start yelling congratulations. As for Nathan and Eli their both have stunned expressions on their faces intently beaming at me.

If I could disappear right now I fucking would, but unfortunately I'm human and there's no such thing.

So here I am in this frozen state not moving at all just staying still trying to comprehend that I Gia Marin could possibly be pregnant.
