They Don't Need To Understand

Sherri's POV

Before Andy walked in, I went to the bathroom. And now I know I was right. I wasnt pregnant. With six negative tests and the gift that mother nature had graced me with in the last 5 minutes, I knew I wasnt having another baby. So why was I being sick?

"Sherri?!" Andy called out as he walked in
"Andy?" I questioned and began to walk back down
"Did you ever tell anyone that this might not be a actual relationship? Like it was a publicity stunt?" He asked and sat me down at the kitchen table
"No, Andy I dont know if you have noticed but I dont talk to many people," I laughed
"Its not funny. This is serious Sherri!" Andy said and started to raise his voice
"Dont shout at me," I said bluntly
"I'm just pissed off! How did anyone find out? Because I sure as hell didnt say anything. So you must have done," Andy barked
"What is your problem?" I snapped and walked upstiars to get changed before I went to Ella and Jakes.

I got ready, binned the tests and text Ella to tell her I was on my way. As I walked down to the front room to grab my keys, Andy stopped me.
"Sherri, look im sorry," Andy started
"No. You do this when ever you are in a bad mood and I dont want to be your punching bag. I have no idea what has gotten into you," I replied and walked out to the car.
"Im sorry I have been stressed out. Let me make it up to you? I have a day off in two days hopw about we do something?" Andy offered
"You werent listening to me last night were you?" I said disappointed
"Yeah I was," Andy quickly stated
"If you were you'd have remembered me telling you that I am flying out to Australia to do some more Glam Kills shoots and I'm taking Lilly out there to go and visit the koala's...Lilly has been talking about it for weeks," I said not even looking at him
"Shit. Yeah, thats what she had been talking about. Im sorry I remember. But I was trying make a phone call and Lilly just wouldnt be quiet and it was important work call," Andy said waiting at the car window as I got ready to leave.
"I think we need sometime apart. Clearly work means more to you than me and Lilly do right now. I get it. You're fans need you but so do we. Im going to see my brother," I said and started the car
"Babe come on. My job is the most important thing!" Andy started
"And so was making this marriage work for my little girls sake. But forget it," I said and drove away.

How can he just dismiss us like that? I understand the job thing is important but surely so is his family. I felt empty I didnt know what to do for the best. So I drove to Jake's house and talked everything throught with the girls while the boys were drinking day old beer and eating what ever Ella had been working on this morning.
"You have to leave tommorrow morning?" Sammi pouted
"But..but...why?" Ella pouted as well
"Alex has set up a awesome shoot out there for the clothing line and because they are out there at the moment for a show, they want to have the shoot out there so that he can say what he does and doesnt like. So I have to fly out to Oz and I promise to take Lilly to see the koala's because they are her favourite animals. It just means that I am gunna be away four weeks," I explained
"FOUR WEEKS?!" the girls screamed in unison.
"What about four weeks?" The boys asked as the walked in to the kitchen to find out the source of the screams
"Im leaving the country for four weeks with Lilly," I said
"More like the contient!" Sammi cried
"wait what?" Ashley pouted
"I have a shoot out there and its a holiday for me and Lilly and its just a bit of relax time," I replied
"What about Andy?" jinxx asked
"He's not coming with us," I answered bluntly
"Whats happened between you two?" Jake asked protectively
"His work is more important than me and Lilly right now so its best for us to go without him," I replied, "Work is his priority right now and he cant do that out there for four weeks,"
"I knew they'd break up and she would have to leave!" CC shouted
"Wait what?" I snapped
"It always happens with one of him or Ashley. I make friends with a chick they end up dating them, they break up, I loose a friend," CC huffed and puffed
"We are still going to be okay even if me and him break up, CC I promise you that me and you are akways gunna be best buds okay?" I pinky swore to him
"Okay," CC smiled and hugged me tightly
"Wheres he now?" Ashley questioned
"Home I think. I dont know. I just left and now Im here...Wheres Lilly by the way?" I looked around for my kid and she was nowhere to be seen
"She's asleep upstairs," Ella said, "Do you want some help packing?"
"Yeah please," I smiled, "Jinxxy, Jakey mind if I steal your women?"
"Of course, just have them home before 10!" Jake commanded
"10:30!" Ella braked and we all cracked up.

Driving up to the house, I saw a car I had never seen before in my parking space. So parking next to it, I carried Lilly into the house and put her to bed, hearing two voices in the kitchen. As I was half way downstiars, I heard Ella and Sammi screaming at someone.Running down to see what the fuss was about, I saw Juliet Simms stood at my kitchen door.
"What the hell is she doing here?" I snapped
"He invited me here," Juliet scoffed, "Evidently no a happy couple anymore,"
"Want me to rip her hair out? I can rip that bitches hair out," Ella started and Sammi pulled her back
"Where is he?" Sammi asked
"Getting more wine from the back. Wait I thought you two were over?" Juliet said as Andy walked up and saw me Sammi and Ella.
"We'll we are over now. And since its my house, both of you can get the hell out!" I screamed and pushed Juliet out the front door. Throwing my ring at Andy and slapping him round the face, he tried to give me a fake story.
"She was helping me with the album! She is recording a song with us. Sherri, listen!" andy shouted
"No, I have seen it all. We're done," I smiled, "Come get your crap when Im not here," and then I slammed the door.

As tears swelled up in my eyes, I knew the best thing to do was to get a earlier flight to Australia. packing frantically, Sammi got me earlier flights, Ella informed the boys of the break up and to meet us at the airport to say goodbye to me and Lil and I was getting together everything for the flight and trip.
"So packed?" Sammi asked
"Nearly, just need to find Mr Stuffy for Lilly and we can leave," i smiled
"Awesome. Look you can still come over and stuff? Me and Jinxx will still have you. I want to see my little LillyPad grow up!" Sammi started to get teary
"Dont you dare cry, because I will as well!" I started and hugged her
"Right the guys are gunna come to the airport. Why do you have to go the otherside of the world?! I am gunna miss my niece and Sissy in Law!"Ella cried and instantly a whole hudle of the three of us were sat on my bedroom floor crying.

"Mommy!" Lilly called from her room.
"Yeah baby, whats the matter?" I asked carrying her in and Ella and Sammi started to get her stuff together for me
"Where daddy?" She tilted her head
"Urm..." I didnt know what to say....
"Daddy is staying at a friends house because you and mommy are going on a big adventure!" Sammi smiled and squeezed my shoulder
"Yeah, Mommy is going to take you to see some koala's! And in a couple days time me and Aunty Sammi are gunna come over and see some koala's with you!" Ella smiled and watched the excitement grow on Lilly's face
"But you have to be a big girl for mommy because she has to go have her photo taken," Sammi smiled
"Okay. Adventure!" Lilly was so excited that getting her ready for the airport was so quick and easy.
"Right! To the airport!" I said as i drove us to the airport, give my car keys to the girls so they can drive back when we get there. I think this is going to be the best way to deal with it.

My life has turned upside down; marriage/relationship is over, I'm leaving the country and I have no idea when to come back.
