Derek: twirling pen So, uh, been a wild ride, huh?
FireworkHarmony
yeah, I guess so.she looks up at him
Derek leans against a wall, casually crossing his arms and continuing to twirl his pen. Derek: Can't say I'm surprised you're taking this well. I mean, you've always had a good sense of humor about stuff, right?
FireworkHarmony
I’m on a bed recovering from giving birth to our son. …y-yeah…
Derek sits down on the edge of the bed, looking a bit sheepish as he watches you. He runs a hand through his messy hair before speaking.
Derek: You know, I never thought I'd be here right now... with a kid. It's crazy, huh?
FireworkHarmony
I’m wearing a black dress that’s short, I have blonde hair, blue eyes, and my name is Bella. Yeah… My tone is sarcastic
Derek can't help but notice your black dress and how it accentuates your figure. He tries to keep his cool, but his cheeks flush a bit. Derek: twirling pen Well, you look great, as always. But we should probably talk about something important.
FireworkHarmony
I look confused as I sit on the bed next to him. What do you mean by that?
Derek puts his arm around you and grins You know exactly what I mean. You're carrying my baby. Been pregnant with it for three years now. Derek lets out a nervous chuckle
FireworkHarmony
I nodded softly as I got a massage while laying on my stomach. I looked over at him. Yeah… it has been.
Derek leaned against the wall, still fidgeting with the pen in his hand. Derek: chuckles nervously Y'know, I gotta say, I never imagined things would end up like this. I mean, I knew you'd find out eventually, but... I kinda thought I'd have more time.
FireworkHarmony
What’s going on? You seem… anxious.
Derek puts on a confident smile and shrugs, twirling the pen in his hand. Derek: Just thinking about some things, y'know? Life's been pretty crazy lately. But hey, that's nothing new, right?
FireworkHarmony
raises an eyebrow What's got you all twisted up, Derek?
Derek looks around, checking if anyone is eavesdropping Listen... there's something I need to tell you. It's a bit sensitive, so please keep it between us. Can you promise me that?
FireworkHarmony
Yeah.. she looks down I’m leaving… I say softly
Derek's expression drops as you say this. He quickly sets the pen down and steps closer to you.
Wait, what? You can't just leave. We need to talk about this.
FireworkHarmony
I looked away as I saw him holding my pregnancy test results in his hand. I knew what it said. What do you want, Derek?
Derek looks down at the test before meeting your gaze. Look, I know what this says. And I'm not exactly thrilled either. But I wanted to talk to you about it. He puts the test down on the nearby table, leaning against a nearby wall.
FireworkHarmony
Derek… what have we done…? She looks down.
Derek takes a deep breath, his playful demeanor faltering for a moment. Derek: Look, I know this is a lot to take in. But trust me, I've got this handled. I'm not some dumb guy who doesn't know what he's doing.
FireworkHarmony
You’re telling me. How long have we been doing this? Three years?!
he shrugs nonchalantly Well, yeah. Time kinda flies when you're having fun, doesn't it? But hey, I've gotta hand it to ya - you're a real trooper. Three years, and not once did you ever complain... much.
FireworkHarmony
I sit on your lap and hug you tightly.
Derek wraps his arms around you, pulling you close as he buries his face into your hair. His breath is warm against your neck.
Derek: whispering I'm sorry. I'm so sorry...
FireworkHarmony
I’m Harmony, but most people call me Melody. I have short, curly brown hair and bright green eyes. I wear baggy clothes because I hate my body. …
Derek smiles warmly at you, noticing your baggy clothes and self-conscious demeanor. Hey there, Melody. You look... well, you look good. He takes a seat next to you, twirling his pen idly.
FireworkHarmony
I crossed my arms and looked away. "What do you want?"
Derek put his hands in his pockets and took a step closer.
"Well, I was hoping we could talk. Alone."
FireworkHarmony
I look at him confused what do you mean by that?
he sighs and leans back in the chair, still twirling the pen in his hand Look, I'm not really sure how to say this, but... I've got some news that might blow your mind.
FireworkHarmony
what do you mean by that? I asked confused as I sat on the table at the massage place getting my feet rubbed
Derek leaned against the wall, twirling his pen and avoiding eye contact
You know... it's been a pretty crazy few years. He chuckled nervously.
