The Boy With A Child

Chapter 94

                                 Onyx's POV
I picked Malakai up. I brought him to the living room. I put him next to Primrose.

"Is he okay?"

"Yeah. He just fell off his bed. Him and MJ were jumping."

"That's not good kids."

I grabbed a bag of ice for Malakai. I put it on his knee.

"Let me know when, you don't want this anymore. I know I told you that, it looks fine but, I'm still going to keep an eye on it."

Primrose sat up.

"You okay?"

"Yeah. I'm still trying to wrap my head around...what I just heard."

My mom stood up.

"I should get going."

"Do you have anyone to go home to?"

"No. I'm okay though."

"You sure?"

"Yes. I'll tell you if, I'm not."

After my mom left, I was stuck in my head. I had a hard time sleeping.

"Hey? Baby? I can't sleep. Hey? Rose?"

"Hm?"

I moved some hair out of her face.

"I can't sleep."

She opened her eyes.

"Oh no. Really?"

"Yeah."

"Is your mind racing?"

"Kinda. I'm just stuck in it."

"What's wrong? Is it about Cecilia?"

"Yeah. But...when's it not?"

"Yeah. You do have a point."

"S-she was so...open today. I don't remember..the last time..she was like that."

"That was new for you?"

"Basically. I wanna go to sleep. Hey, you know what'f be funny?"

"No."

"If my parents actually ended up together."

"You'd like that, wouldn't you?"

"Kinda. I don't think, it'll happen."

She ran her fingers through my hair.

"Yeah. I know. Well...you know they both love you right?"

"I know my dad loves me. I dunno if my mom does."

"She just answered all your questions. That doesn't make you think, she loves you?"

I shrugged. Someone started banging on the door. I jumped up. I ran downstairs.

"Nyx! Help!"

I opened the front door. I saw Alexia. She had blood all over her. She also had a black eye.

"What happened?!"

"I-I need help."

"Did you hurt anyone?"

She shook her head.

"My boyfriend just beat the shit outta me."

My eyes widened.

"Huh?! Did he follow you?!"

I started looking around outside. I saw no one.

"I-I don't think so."

"Alright. Get inside."

She ran inside and I locked the door.

"Okay what happened?"

"Please don't say anything!"

"Oh god. What happened?"

"Nyx..I-I'm pregnant. I-I told my boyfriend. H-he just lost it!"

"Okay relax. You're sure you are?"

"Yes!"

"I hate to say this but...you've gotta tell mom and dad."

"I can't! T-they'll get mad!"

"Alex you don't know that. I thought the same thing. Yet again...mom didn't pay much attention to me."

"Y-you gotta help me! I-I recorded everything! I-I thought he'd be happy!"

She pulled out her phone. She showed me the video.

"Okay. Call mom or dad. I'm going to get ready. You're going to the hospital."

"No!"

"You're not getting outta this."

"What's going on?"

I turned around and saw Primrose. Alexia ran up to her.

"I-I need help!"

"Huh? Why do you have blood everywhere?"

"Her boyfriend, just beat the shit outta her. She thinks, she's pregnant too. I'm taking her to the hospital. I'm telling you...call dad. He's working on a case right now. He'll drop everything. He'll meet us at the hospital. Prim stay here. Make sure, she doesn't leave."

I ran upstairs. I quickly got ready. I ran back downstairs.

"Okay. Let's go. Did you call him?"

She nodded.

"You're not going to school tomorrow. I don't want you around this kid."

"Thank you!"

I brought her to the hospital. She started shaking once, she was put in an room in the ER. After she put on a hospital gown, I walked up to her. I started hugging her.

"It's gonna be okay."

"I-I can't go home. H-he knows where I-I live."

"Okay. Okay. I'm going to talk to dad. You're staying with me now."

I heard someone running. The running got closer to me then stopped. I looked over my shoulder. I saw my dad out of breath. He ran into the room.

"Okay...I'm...here."

I saw a woman walk into the room.

"Christopher?"

Alexia started shaking more.

"Make her leave!"

"Why?"

"T-that's his mom!"

"Alexia? Is that you?"

The woman got closer to me.

"You must be Onyx. I don't think, I've ever seen someone taller than you Chris."

"Go away V-Vanessa!"

"Oh my! What happened to you?"

"Your son happened." I said through my teeth.

"What?"

"Your son, just beat my little sister."

"O-oh no! I-I'm so sorry!"

"How old is this kid?"

"He'll be 15 in a week."

"He's lucky, he's not 18."

"Is she actually pregnant? Did you find that out yet?"

"Yeah. She is. Dad...she's moving in with me. I don't care what you say. I'm not sending her to school either."

"Onyx..she's gotta go to school."

"Then...we'll transfer her to the one by me."

"I have to talk to your mom and Seanna about this."

"When we leave...we'll start moving in her stuff."
