Present Day
I woke up from the constant buzzing of my phone so after some twisting and turning, I finally decided to pry my eyes open and answer my phone already knowing it was probably Emma who would wake me up at this ungodly hour.
"I need to talk to you. What time do you want to meet," She asked, as I placed a hand on my head.
I think I did a little too much drinking last night.
I examined the right side of the bed to make sure Ethan wasn't there before speaking freely. " Yes, I will meet with you in thirty minutes,"I replied, quickly ending the call.

I walked into the same cafe we meet at last time to find Emma sitting in the corner waving her hand and I walked to the table.
She stood up shaking my hand."Good morning Ms.Scott," She said, as I motioned for her to sit down.
"Can we get right to the point," I said, sitting right across from her.
She shook her head as she gave me a familiar look.I knew that look perfectly, it was the look of sympathy.I hated that look. "Ok, did you know that your eggs were not even used in the process of Rivers impregnation." My jaw literally dropped as I looked at her in a skeptical manner.
"What that cannot be true," I replied, glaring at her.
"It is the doctor confirmed that an artificial insemination did not take place because Angelina did not want it to take place," She handed me a paper with the name and number of the doctor.
Panic was literally written all over my face because my mind began thinking the worst."So who's baby is River carrying?" I asked, with sweat nearly dripping down my back.
"The only possible conclusion is that the baby is Ethan and Rivers."
I felt something was compressing against my heart making it hard to intake oxygen. "No, no, no, no, no," I yelled.
I tried to calm down a bit so I could ask her the question that was racing through my head."Did an artificial insemination take place."I visibly gulped, and she looked away.
She turned her head back slowly and her eyes were squinted shut."Um no they reproduced-"
"Stop, just stop"I cried and ran out of the cafe without another word.
How could he cheat on me?
I thought he forgave me.
Flashback
Once Ethan left I began to drown my bloodstream in any alcohol I could find in the cabinets and no one was here so no one could stop me.
Yeah me!
It had been a couple days since he left and I just didn't feel like thinking about any of it.At all.I wanted to clear my mind off things and alcohol was my best solution.
I was currently watching Pride and Prejudice well more like trashing it when the doorbell rang I was hoping the Chinese food I ordered but I was greatly mistaken when I swung the door open to find Ryan at my door.Aka Ethan's Best Friend.
He let himself in and poured himself a glass of bourbon before I could even question him."What are you doing here Ryan?"A smirk appeared on his face and then he devoured the glass.
"We're going out for some fresh air you look like a pig and this place smells like a mother fuckin barn !"He mocked, pouring himself another glass of bourbon and devouring it just as fast.
I rolled my eyes."I'm not going anywhere."I protested, throwing myself on the couch.
