Between Angels and Insects (Sequel to Broken), chapter 3
Xanthe looked a little bit nearvous, she sat down at the table next to me.
"Billie I wanted to tell you" she said looking down
"Tell me what?" I asked looking at her
"It's quite hard to say it."
"Just tell me" I prompted
"Sharn is your daughter
" replied Xanthe. I almost spat out my drink.
"What!" I Choked. I couldn't believe this, the first person on my mind was Katie, what would she do. Would our wedding be persponed? Would she even want to get married to me now?
" I had Sharn 3 years ago. I just couldn't pluck up the courage to tell you, I know you have a new fiance and a hectic life but..... I can't let you live in denial" Xanthe replied
"But I have been living in Denial, I have a 3 year old daughter, why didn't you tell me?" I'm getting married in 2 weeks. You got any other secrets you've been keeping from me? I screamed. I couldn't believe this.
"Billie please, I'm sorry but I can't let Sharn grow up without a dad" Xanthe pleaded.
I stood up and stormed out the house, running all the way to the bus stop.
I was out of breath by the time I got on the bus and was starting to feel nauseous and it wasn't only with the fact that I might be a dad but the fact that I had to tell Katie I was dreading every moment of the bus ride there.
When I arrived I yanked out my keys, turned the lock in the door and pulled it open. Moment of truth.
Katie's pov
I looked up at the door as my fiancée walked in, he was sweating, his black hair was stuck to his face and his green eyes didn't look the same he
Was breathing deeply. Billie collapsed to the floor as soon as he opened the door.
"Oh my god" I said walking over to where he was, I bent down and checked his pulse he seemed to be breathing fine, I put him on the couch and put a blanket around him. He has quite a few of these panic attacks and then he just passes out. The doctor said it was nothing serious, it was just stress and he needed to take deep breaths when feeling faint.
I watched him for a while and soon he opened his eyes, "You alrite?" I asked leaning over and kissing him, he kissed me back and continued to stare at me as we pulled away. "What?" I asked. "Katie I have to tell you something" He said sitting up. I nodded, "Right ok" I said. I tried to stay calm but this didn't look good, I thought something bad would happen round Xanthe's. I think I was right
