"Linda!!!" Trish called
"Trish? what, what are you doing here?"
"Trying to stop you from committing the biggest mistake of your life"
"Don't, it was nice of you to come and say goodbye, sorry I was going away without saying but I can't stay here" she said as she showed the ticket to the lady, and was bout to go in but Trish stooped her
"You are going nowhere"
"Come on T; let me go, I'm gonna lose the flight"
"Exactly, you ain't leaving"
"Miss, if you don't get n, the plane is leaving without you"
Linda stood there looking at her friend's eyes, should she leave? or should she stay?
************************
"What time
is it D?" Nick asked
"It's 4.15"
"Shit , man the flight.."
"Miss, the flight heading to London" Howie asked
"Gate 6, but.."
she started but they all started running
"6.. here, come on ask" Nick said
"The flight to London?" AJ asked
"You just missed it, look.." she said as she point to the glass wall
"Shit.., damn.."
"Come on Nick, you just book a flight to London then." AJ said as he put his arm around Nick
"There is no need for that" Trish said as all the guys turned around and saw Trish smiling with Linda next to her. Nick ran to her and hugged her, as Trish laughed
"Man, I thought I lost you girl, don't you ever do something like again" he said as he hold her stronger and Trish walked to where AJ and Howie were.
"Sorry, I just though that.."
"I know what you thought, but I don't want you to run away everytime something is wrong, I want you next to me"
"I'm so sorry" she said as she hugged him and started crying a little
"It's ok,
it's ok now"
"So, are you ok?" Howie asked Trish
"Yeah, I'm fine, thank God I managed to stop her"
"You just disappeared " Howie said
"yeah, we got worried.. with you girls" AJ said as Trish smiled at him
"Thanks AJ, for worrying, but.. but I'm fine" she said felling a little strange when she felt his eyes looking straight to hers
"And in your condition.. I don't want you to go on running around like that" Howie said as AJ froze
"her condition? what is that?"
Howie looked at Trish and then back at AJ as he announced it "Well, Trish is pregnant, we are having a baby" Howie said as Trish just looked down at her feet
AJ couldn't say a word, he just stood there looking at D and then at her, as he felt his own heart yelling from pain.
"So aren't you gonna congratulate us?" Howie asked as he laced his hand around Trish's shoulders
"Well... yo.. yeah, of course, congrats D. I'm sure you are gonna make a great dad" AJ managed to say as the two guys hugged and the he turned to Trish who was still looking at the floor, she just couldn't face his eyes.
"Trish, congratulations" He said as she raised her head and she felt his arms around her body. she wished she could just keep that moment forever, just stay there, felling his breath on her neck, but...
"I hope you
and Howie have all the happiness in this world, and this kiddo as well"
he said as he placed his hand on her tummy and she just keep on fighting
back the tears.
"Hey, what's going on here?" Nick asked as he and Linda joined them
"Well, I guess you should know it too" Howie started "Well Trish is pregnant"
"She is?? Fuck, and who is the father?" Nick let it skip as Linda smacked him on his arm
"ha ha ha... that is funny Nick, who else could it be?" Howie said between laughs as Trish froze and AJ just stood there wondering
"Yeah, of
course yah know I was just joking, congrats bro"
****************************
"Nick?" Linda called as Nick showed u from the bathroom door.
"yeah beauty?"
"I'm just stupid ain't I?"
"Hey, don't you ever say that"
"I am, see, it was just silly, me running away like that, just coz of that" she said as he joined her on the bed
"hey, it isn't that, it's just .. look we have a long road ahead of s, and there is still a lot of things we have to work out, and one of those things is trust, you have to build up your trust in me and more important in yourself. look you are this incredibly beautiful woman, and I don't think you realized that. " he said as she looked down and shared a tear
"Look at me Beauty... I love you, can you understand that? Please, I want you to assure me, you'll never forget that ok?" he asked looking at her eyes as he wiped away a tear and they hugged
"I love you too"
****************************
"Trish? " Howie called as he saw she wasn't facing him "Are you mad?"
"No, no, I'm just tired, why would be mad at you?"
"Well, coz I guess I just rush things a little, telling the guys that you are pregnant, and lying.."
"Look, I know you meant well, but next time please just don't.."
"Sorry, Trish, shit I really screw things out this time didn't I? Shit, now you never gonna marry me"
"No, and yes"
"huh? no and yes, what do you mean?"
"No. you didn't screw things, and.. hmmm yes, I'll marry you"
Howie stood there froze, trying to digest that yes.
"You mean.. like you'll really marry me?"
"Yeah, if you still want to marry me"
"Of course I want to.." he said hugging her "Aw I love you so much Trish, I promise I'll make you the happiest woman on hearth" he said as he kissed her, and she let out a tear or two.
**********************************
AJ turned and turned around on his bed but he just couldn't help thinking of what Nick had told him.
"She is?? Fuck, and who is the father?"
"Damn!" he said as he turned the light on and stood there just staring at the ceiling.
"No, she wouldn't do that, no way, no, it's Howie's kid, and now, I really lost her, man I just gotta forget her, man, erase her from my memories, she is just forbidden fruit, damn, damn I gotta forget her" he said as he reached for his cell and dialled some numbers
"Sally? is

is ok, I just needed to hear a friendly voice. and .. and I need to say
sorry, coz well, I know I didn't did go... sorry I know I hurt you"
