Charli and Dixie aren't related

James' View

"Are Y/n and Dixie coming at the same time?" Chase asks.

"Yes." I say.

"Do they know?" Larri asks.

"No." I say.

"James!" Addison says.

"They were such a good couple!" I say defending myself.

"Y/n got a homeless girl pregnant while Dixie was sleeping with Noah the same night. Then the girl had a miscarriage and Noah and Dixie became a couple." Larri says.

"They were still a good couple before that." I say.

Time Skip; Y/n's View

The door opens and I see Dixie staring at me.

"What are you doing here?" Dixie asks.

"What are you doing here?" I ask.

Dixie rolls her eyes and closes the door. I put my shirt on and leave the bathroom.

I open the door and I see Dixie staring at me.

"Sorry, babe." I say.

"Come here." Dixie says.

I go in the room and close the door. Dixie smiles and kisses me.

Now and then I think of when we were together

"What are you doing here? Your date to film with James is next week." Dixie says.

"Your film date is next week, he told me." I say.

"No, your date is next week." Dixie says.

"Clean your fucking ears out, bitch." I say.

I put my index finger in her ear and she slaps me.

"Are you trying to get back together with me? Is that why you're here?" She asks.

"Hell no. I lost my child because of you. I know you told him to go to my house. He broke into my house and pushed my girlfriend down the stairs. He killed my daughter." I say.

"I don't wanna fucking hear another one of your lies!" I say.

"She makes me so happy." Dixie says.

Like when you said you felt so happy you could die

She's the one.

I told myself that you were right for me

"If you really cared about that hoe, you would've kept Noah away from her." Dixie says.

"Bitch—" I say.

"You just admitted that Noah came to my house on my property and attacked me and my girlfriend." I say.

"Don't pin this on me, cheater." Dixie says.

"I cheated you, became you cheated on me with Noah before I didn't anything. I seen the way you acted around him versus the way you acted around me. You stopped doing things to me, because you were doing them to Noah." I say.

Dixie sits on Noah's lap and I start to feel uncomfortable. Dixie kisses his neck and I get up.

But felt so lonely in your company

"Where you going?" Noah asks failing to hide the smirk on his face.

I go outside and slam the door.

"You never cared, Dixie. Get that through your head." I say.

But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

Dixie shakes her head and walks away.

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness

I walk down the street and see a girl with a sign.

"Got any spare change? Anything helps." The girl says.

She was young, about the same age as me.

I put my hand in my pocket and I didn't have anything other than my license and my debit card.

"I don't have anything on me. I can take you to get food and new clothes. You can stay at my house for a while." I say.

"Yes, thank you." The girl says.

"What's your name?" I ask helping her stand up.

"Charli." The girl says.

Like resignation to the end, always the end

I sigh and sit down.

"I cheated and got a girl pregnant. I got Charli pregnant." I say.

"I cheated with Noah." Dixie says.

"I don't wanna be in this relationship anymore." I say.

"I don't either." Dixie says.

So when we found that we could not make sense

"We can still be friends, hopefully." Dixie says.

Well, you said that we would still be friends

My phone rings and I answer it.

"Hello." I say.

"Hey, Y/n. Can I tell you something?" Charli asks.

"Yeah." I say.

"2 weeks ago, we had sex and I think I'm pregnant." Charli says.

I'm not dating Charli, we're roommates with benefits. I really like her personality, I would be interested in dating her again.

But I'll admit that I was glad it was over

"Oh, okay. Maybe you should take a test and we can go from there." I say.

"Okay, thanks." Charli says.

Charli hangs up and I put my phone in my pocket.

I lean back in my chair and I see Dixie come outside.

"Hey, gorgeous." I say teasing Dixie.

"Fuck you." Dixie says.

But you didn't have to cut me off

"Wanna make out?" I ask.

"No!" Dixie says.

5 minutes later...

Dixie pulls away and blushes.

"Don't tell anyone about that." Dixie says as I button my shirt up.

Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing

Dixie leaves and I roll my eyes.

And I don't even need your love

Tomorrow she'll act as if she hasn't seen me in 20 years.

But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough

"You didn't have to do this." I say.

No, you didn't have to stoop so low

"It's nothing personal." Addison says putting Dixie's stuff in a bag.

"Dixie says it's very personal." Larri says putting stuff in his bag.

Have your friends collect your records and then change your number

I shake my head and open my bottle of water.

Time Skip

"What if I told you that someone else could be the other parent? I got drunk at a party and I woke up without any clothes on. What if someone else is the other parent?" Charli says.

"That's gonna be my child no matter what. If that's not my child and the other parents wants to be in their life or not, that's my child." I say

Charli smiles and hugs me.

"We don't even have to get a DNA test if you don't want one." I say.

"Okay." Charli says.

"C-Can we get back together?" I ask.

I guess that I don't need that though

"Mhmm." Charli says as she blushes.

I smile and kiss her.

Now you're just somebody that I used to know

"I love you." I say.

Now you're just somebody that I used to know

"I love you too." Charli says.

Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Time Skip; Dixie's View

"I can't wait for the award, I gotta go." I say.

"What's wrong?" Matt asks.

"Y/n is in the hospital." I say.

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over

It was never my fault.

But had me believing it was always something that I'd done

"I don't understand. I don't know if you want me or some other girl. Make up your mind." I say.

But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say

"I don't want someone else." Y/n says.

You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know

Y/n's View; 10 months later...

"Are you still gonna want to marry her when you find out that's not your baby?" Mom asks.

"That's my daughter, you're just racist." I say picking the envelope up.

I hang up and put my phone down.

Charli comes downstairs and sits next to me. I open the envelope and we read it.

"98% probability of paternity." We read at the same time.

"Good enough for me." I say.

Charli smiles and I kiss her.

Dixie's View

I walk up to Y/n's house and see her kissing Charli through the window.

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing (Ahhh)

I smile and walk to the door.

And I don't even need your love (Oooh)
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough (Ahhh)

"It's nothing personal." Addison says putting Y/n's stuff in a bag.

No, you didn't have to stoop so low (Oooh)

"Y/n says it's very personal." Larri says putting Y/n's stuff in his bag.

Have your friends collect your records and then change your number (Ahhh)

I put the box down and ring the doorbell. I walk away and hear the door open.

I guess that I don't need that though (Oooh)
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Y/n's View

I open the box and pick the note up.

"I know you're sort of struggling a little and you just had a baby. Let me know if you need anything else. From Dixie." I read.

Somebody (I used to know)
Somebody (Now you're just somebody that I used to know)

"Wow." Charli says looking at all of the clothes and toys in the box.

Somebody (I used to know)
Somebody (Now you're just somebody that I used to know)

"She does care about you just like I thought." Charli says.

(I used to know)
(That I used to know)
(I used to know)

I smile and Charli hugs me tightly.

Somebody
