*Song playing in Daniella's head after her dad kicked her out, and Annabelle.*
"Ella it's going to be alright we can get through this." Anisa says trying to comfort me while Dwayne drives. I picked up a few things in my room when my dad kicked me out. I knew this would happen but this pain I'm feeling.... its overbearing. My mom didn't say a word the whole time, she didn't even look at me.
"We're stopping by my house." Dwayne informs us, "we're almost there."
"Why....why was HE there?" I whisper to Anisa
"I asked him to. Try getting some sleep ok?" I nod and close my eyes.
............
When I wake up, I'm in a soft bed that seems familiar. I open my eyes, yawn and look around the room. The door opens and Dwayne walks in. I cover my face with my hands and he sits near the bed.
"Hey" he says taking my hands out of my face, "Listen... I know I might be the last person you want to talk to but.... I'm sorry for everything ok. You don't deserve this, you didn't ask for this and I wish I never ruined your life."
I pull myself up and give him my best death stare. He's right, he did ruin everything. I slap him hard in the face and throw myself back in bed, his bed.
"You did ruin my life and I hate you so much." I tell him and my eyes start watering again, "I want to go home..." I break into tears and Dwayne sits there silently.
"When you're ready to come downstairs here is some clothes Anisa got you. I'll set in on the nightstand."
I don't respond and he sighs. I stay in the bed and let out a few more tears.
.............
After a lot of crying I get up because the pillow is soaking wet with tears. I stand in front of the mirror and look at my chubby cheeks, red and sleepy eyes. I pull my shirt of and rub my stomach, so I'm going to be a mom apparently. Maybe I should put them up for adoption at least maybe my life will go back to normally. I trudge to the nightstand, take the clothes and take a steaming hot shower.
I take a deep breath and open the door to go downstairs. In the living room, Dwayne, Chanel and Anisa are waiting for me. When Anisa sees me she gets up and pulls me into a hug.
"How do you feel." She asks me
"Probably like a slut." Chanel says causing everyone to stare at her.
"Chanel if you don't shut the FUCK UP!" Dwayne yells, "she's not a slut unlike you sleeping with every damn boy in our school!"
"No one told YOU to fuck HER stupid! This is your fault! For four months she sure has a huge stomach." she points at my stomach and I cover it.
"That's because she's having twins.." Anisa says
"WHAT! imma be the aunt of this girl's KIDS as in more than one!? Oh HELL NO!" Chanel gets off the couch and leaves the room.
"can I talk to Daniella in private?" Dwayne asks Anisa and she nods, she takes out her phone and heads outside.
Dwayne grabs my hands and takes me to the couch Chanel was sitting in.
"I want us to start over."
"Sure. Isn't that exactly what you said when we found out how many kids it was gonna be?" I tell him sarcastically
" I mean it this time, Anisa convinced me that we are in this together." He rubs my hand with his thumb and smiles at me. "This might be alot to ask but.... can I.." He reaches for my stomach and I nod. He lifts my shirt and gently touches my stomach, just his sudden touch made my heart skip a beat. He moves his hand against my stomach and I sit there in silence. Soon it gets awkward and he lets go.
"Did you see how mad he got?" I ask, my eyes watering again.
"Yea I saw... but its ok Ella. I will protect you. I promise not to leave you, I want you to be able to trust me for when they're born and I can hold my kids in my hands."
"Its hard to trust you..."
"I know it is and I don't expect you to, I've done terrible things like kiss someone in front of you, ignore you. I'm gonna try, just like you're trying right now." I nod and Anisa comes in as well as Chanel.
"You know when dad finds out you got a girl pregnant you are so dead." Chanel smirks at us and laughs.
"Where's your mom?" Anisa asks taking a seat in the other couch
"She's dead and our dad is an alcholic who almost never comes home."
"How do you have a house this big?"
"Damn you talk to much, Because we do alright!" She screams and leaves the room again.
"Ella we gotta go now to my house." Anisa says as she looks at Dwayne and I
"You guys can stay over. Its almost midnight anyways." Dwayne says getting up and then helping me
"No i have to go home and Ella is coming with me, If things don't go as plan by 1 then I'll text you to pick her up. If its 1 and I don't text you that means she's staying with me. Try not to sleep with anyone while you wait." Anisa says as she heads out the door. Dwayne gives me a hug and I head out.
When I get in the car Anisa gets on her phone again to text someone.
"Annabelle won't answer my calls."
"What happened."
"Last time she answered the phone it seemed like she was at a party and someone posted a picture of her drinking at a bar on Instagram."
"Wow"
"Yeah that Julian kid has changed her alot and for something she isn't,"
"Does your parents know she is acting like this?" I ask her as she turns a corner
"Yea they know and every time they try to talk to her she acts like Chanel."
She drives in silence as we reach our final destination.
.........
Anisa unlocks the door and walks inside as I follow behind her. Her mom and dad wait in the kitchen and a look of disapproval lands on me.
"SO what's this of my daughter's best friend being pregnant." Her father sternly ask
I lift my shirt up and they look away.
"I understand why your parents kicked you out." He says and Anisa's mom slaps his arm
"Look guys she needs a place to stay, she has no where else to go! If you don't say yes then I'm leaving to." Anisa states
"You will sit your ass down and behave. Everyone around you is acting like trash and you are trying to help!? Help yourself before you turn into them." Her dad says and then looks at me.
"We'll have to think about it but for now.... you can spend the night." He stares at me with a blank face and then groans out of the room.
Anisa guides me to the guess room and lets me settle down. I take off my shoes and try to sleep this terrible day away.
