Jakes POV
So basically I offered to get her pregnant and I did. So I downloaded the part that I watched to my phone and then deleted all of the footage. I gotta tell her.

I texted Lacy and asked for Erika's address so I could "give her something to thank her for dinner" and her being her she did then I drove over to her place.

*knock knock*

N: heyyy Jake

J: hi I really really need to talk to Erika

N: um okay sure come in

I walked in and Sunny saw me and got wide eyes.

S: oh Jake hi

J: hi

(They don't know that he knows about the baby)

J: can I talk to Erika?

S: she's not here

J: I didn't drive across town to be lied to

S: she's in her room it's the one at the very end of the hallway.

J: thank you

N: I didn't send you Sunny did

J: okay

I went to Erika's room.

*knock knock*

E: come in

J: uh hey

E: Jake what are you doing here? How did you find my apartment? Who let you in? It was Sunny wasn't it?

I closed and locked her bedroom door.

J: Jesus Erika quit it with the questions. Why else would I be here? To bake you a fvcking cake? Lacy gave me your address and yes it was Sunny.

E: Lacy knows?!

J: if Lacy knew she would've called you by now.

E: okay why are you here?

J: I came to show you a video

E: you couldn't send it to me?

J: I knew we were gonna talk after and I prefer to talk about a second accidental pregnancy in person.

I gave Erika my phone and she watched the video and just started crying.

J: Erika why didn't you tell me?

E: I told you already because you are in a relationship!

J: I know but we both know from past experience that I will and always will be there for you.

E: then why?

J: what?

E: Why did you ghost me a week after you left?!

J: I didn't want us losing contact to hurt you so I thought sooner was better than later

E: that wasn't your decision to make I pushed everyone out of my life for months because the love of my life just ditched me after what I did for him.

J: I'm so sorry Erika I really am

E: you have no idea what it's like for no one to love you for 4 years straight.

I walked over and hugged Erika while she sobbed into my shirt.

J: Erika I loved you, you just didn't know it because I wasn't there to show it

Erika squeezed me tighter and I put my chin on her head.

J: I'm here and I'm not leaving.

E: but Lacy-

J: but Lacy isn't here right now so let's not stress.

Erika's POV
Jake rubbed my back in circles relaxing me and I closed my eyes. I felt my body getting heavy on my legs and my legs weakened and I almost fell and I became more alert realizing I just almost fell asleep standing like a horse.

J: your tired?

E: yeah I haven't slept all day

J: okay you lay down and rest and I'll be right here.

I laid down in my bed and Jake sat down on my hanging chair that I have in my room.

(Room)

*1 hour 45 minutes later*

I woke up from my nap and saw Jake still there but sleeping.

I got up and went to the bathroom.

When I was done I left the bathroom and I saw Jake awake.

E: hey

J: hey how you feeling?

E: not tired.

J: I was thinking while you were asleep since your so stressed now and since work can be stressful maybe you should take some time off.

E: yeah I'll just get some of my upcoming projects ready or something.

J: if that's not stressful

E: no it's just ideas that come to me and I send them to photographers or managers.

J: oh okay

It was quiet and awkward for awhile.

E: I think we should tell Lacy

J: what?

E: actually as soon as possible, because maybe she won't be that mad because you were super drunk and if you are up front with her and tell her the whole truth and be honest maybe it'll all work out in the end and you can still be with Lacy because I know you love her and I don't want to ruin that for you-

J: Erika I've only seen you twice,,sober and only one of them was with Lacy so how do you know I love her sooo much?

E: because I know you and I know you wouldn't stay with someone for three years and propose if you didn't love them. And when you thought she was the one who cheated when you first saw the footage you said you wanted to talk to her about it, when Alex cheated on you in high school you broke up with her immediately. This is your fiancée Jake. I'm literally the other woman.

J: you're not the other woman Erika, you are my first true true love and everyone LITERALLY everyone ends up somehow hooking up with their first love after they break up but they problem with us is I have a problem with being drunk and knocking you up.

J: being just friends won't be that hard

E: no we slept in the same bed for months and we're just friends.

J: yeah just. friends.

E: easy

J: I think when I tell Lacy I'll be alone and if she's okay with it then we can all talk together.

E: okay

J: her flight lands in a couple hours so I'm gonna go home and get some actual rest because that chair wasn't so comfortable so I'll see youuuu maybe tomorrow afternoon?

E: yeah tomorrow's good.

We both stood up and hugged.

Jake put his head in the crook of my neck and I dug my head more into his chest.

J: I honestly missed your hugs.

E: *giggles* me too

We pulled back Jake moved the hair from my face.

J: I promise everything's gonna be okay *smiles*

God he's beautiful.

E: I hope so

J: one more for the road?

I went in for a hug

J: I didn't mean a hug....
