Raining on Sunday

“You got a dog? I’m surprised you haven’t got six cats under this roof already.” Sid laughed to himself. “Oh, thanks.” I rolled my eyes. I picked Winter off the floor and held her to my chest. Silence sat in between us, Sid picked at his finger nails, a nervous habit I knew he’d never break. “Look, we need to talk. Clearly.” I said keeping my eyes on Winter. “Yeah, I was wondering how long you’d put this off. I’m not going to lie, I almost ignored your text when I got it. But things have been awkward enough around us lately, let’s just figure this out.” He readjusted himself so he was facing me. “Sid, I don’t know what happened. Everything I told you was true. It’s just…” “James doesn’t know how to leave things alone. He’s your best friend. You love him. You were drunk. What’s your excuse today, Eisley?” My jaw dropped. “I don’t have an excuse, Sid. I just wanted to tell you that I love you. And I’m sorry.” “I don’t let girls into my life. I never do. I don’t have the time, nor the patience right now. But I took a chance with you, because we had a chance. By some crazy miracle, we work together, and we have the same schedule. You understand it more than anyone ever could and I thought that would be perfect for me.” He stood up, and paced around the living room. “Do you have any idea how hard it is for me to look at you and know that James has defiled you so much that you’ve become a recluse? Do you? Do you not realize what I had to do to myself to even give ‘us’ a chance?” He continued. I felt tears forming in my eyes. He sat down on the loveseat across from me, and put his hands in his head. “Sidney, I love you. I always have, and I messed up. Big time.” I whimpered. “And if James came back right now? Who would you run to first? Him or me?” He questioned. “What are you talking about? James doesn’t want me like that, Sid. He never did. It was casual, I guess, but with you, that’s a future. A future I want.” He quit moving in his track, and looked at me. “You sure?” He smirked. I nodded, and wiped a tear from my eye. “None of this back and forth bullshit, Kemp. You’re in or you’re not.” He sputtered. “No back and forth.” I repeated, a smile spreading across my face.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. I looked at the plastic in my hand. Fuck, fuck, fuck. I sat down on the bed, Winter, now getting bigger jumped up and licked my face. I heard the door downstairs open, “Eisley? I’m here!” I heard Sid voice call. “Fuck!” I whispered and shoved the piece of plastic in the bedside table and flung my body out of my bedroom. Winter in tow, I ran downstairs and saw Sid sitting at the dinner table on his phone. “Ready?” I asked, he looked up and smiled at me, he nodded and stood up, grabbing Winter’s collar and leash. I threw on a pair of running shoes and pulled my hair back. “Ready Winter?” He asked, she jumped up on him and wagged her tail. We took off out the front door, and started our daily run. Sid and I kept at a decent pace, until another wave of nausea hit me, I stopped and threw up all over the sidewalk. Fuck being pregnant.

“You sure your okay?” He asked. No, I’m just knocked up with a kid that might not be yours, I thought to myself.I nodded, and stepped in the shower.My mind was racing a thousand different directions. I just got Sid back, and I’m going to lose him again.
