Summer Nights

26: 'You're lucky I'm pregnant...'

I grin wildly as I sit down at my usual lunch table, Sammy is already halfway through his sandwich despite the bell only ringing literally three minutes ago.

'Hey superstar!' I chirp.

He gives me a small smile, 'You seem awfully happy today.'

I shrug, 'That's probably because I got a decent night sleep for the first time in nearly four months.'

'Well, I'm very glad to hear.'

My heart warms as Luke and Autie walk over to our table with their hands firmly intwined together, her head is resting on his shoulder.

'How's my favourite couple doing on this beautiful day?'

Sammy gasps loudly, 'Wow, so what I am hearing is that Zayn and I aren't your favourite couple.'

I give him a sheepish smile, 'Sorry Sam, it's just I've been rooting for these two since he first called her princess.'

He shrugs, 'So have I, so I'll allow it.'

'I got us invited to some party by the way.' Luke murmurs as Autumn nestles her head into the crook of his neck.

I perk up slightly, 'Whose party, is it?'

'Rocky's.'

My eyes widen, 'R-Rocky is throwing a party?'

'Yeah apparently, it's for one of his friend's birthday's but he said that we could all come.'

I frown slightly, 'Oh.'

Sammy smiles brightly at us all, 'When is it?'

'Friday.'

...

I frown as I examine myself in the mirror, I'm wearing a tight-long sleeved black bodycon dress, usually I try and avoid wearing tight things, but I feel as if this is the only way that you can see that I've got somewhat of a bump compared to just a bloated stomach. I decorate my fingers with various rings, I put in my favourite pair of hoop earrings and a gold chain around my neck.

Autumn wolf-whistles as she enters my room, 'Looking hot baby mama!'

I huff loudly, 'Well, I'm not feeling it.'

'Don't be ridiculous, you look amazing.'

'I-I kind of feel silly for going tonight when Rocky hasn't personally invited me, I don't want him to think I'm some creepy stalker.'

She laughs softly, 'There is no way that he's going to think that.'

I shrug, 'You clearly don't know him that well.'

'Luke literally said that Rocky told him to invite all of us.'

Speak of the devil, the dark-haired boy walks into the room with a lazy grin as he not so subtly checks out his girlfriend.

You look beautiful tonight love.' He murmurs as he presses a kiss on the top of her head.

She grins wildly as she looks up at him, 'You look pretty handsome, yourself.'

'Wow, I'm pretty and handsome?'

She rolls her eyes, 'That's not what I meant, and you know it.'

'Whatever you say.'

She narrows her eyes, 'You infuriate me.'

'Likewise.' 

I groan slightly as I slide my largest pair of black heels onto my feet, I blow the hair out of my face as I struggle to bend down and fasten the clasp.
