That weekend Samantha was staying with a friend. Em sat down next to Lucas on the couch.
"I think we should go to the hospital Em." Lucas said. "Your fever won't break."
"I'm not sick Lucas, I'm pregnant."
He looked like he'd been hit by a ton of bricks. "I knew you would sleep with him."
"I'm sorry."
"Do you love him?"
"Yes."
"Do you love me?"
"Yes."
"Emmaline, what does he have that I don't have?"
"Nothing."
"Well there must be something." "You slept with him."
"It just happened." "I didn't mean for it to happen."
"I can't ask you not to see him because he's Samantha's father." "I also can't be with you knowing he'll always be around." "I want a divorce Em." He said with tears in his eyes.
"No Lucas." "I love you."
"I love you too, but only you, you can't say the same." He got up, got his keys and left. She cried.
