THIRTY

~CLAIR~

Dinner wasn't awkward, to my surprise. Briana was busy gushing about how she hated her lecturer. When dinner ended, Brianna retreated to her room leaving only Matteo and I in the kitchen.

Not knowing what to do, I arranged the clean plates in the cupboard. "Are you upset?", I whip my head to the side to see Matteo staring at me with his hands in his pockets.

"No, I'm good", I bite my lip as my eyes roam is features. I don't know why guys look so hotter with their sleeves rolled up. He walks towards me and pulls me towards him. "I know you may not believe me but I'm happy that you're pregnant", he tells me.

A small smile forms on my lips as I nod. "I'm happy I'm pregnant too", I say but I felt my throat tighten. "What's wrong?", he asks. How I wish I could tell you.

"You won't understand", I tell him. "Stop pushing me away, Clair. Just tell me", he says. His tired eyes were showing seriousness.
