Chapter 19 I, At Last I Know

Dylan's P.O.V.

I Pretty Much Had A Great Time Today. I Had A Good Meal That My Beautiful Girl Cooked Me And A Good Time With Guys. I Know I Should Have Told Ruth I'd Be Bringing Guest Over But I Forgot. After It Was Over, I Went Upstairs I Didn't Pay Attention To Ruth At All. I Just Realize That--Wait, I Ignored Her The Whole Night. What A Dick I Am. Gosh, I Need To Apologize To Her. Even Though It's Midnight I Know It Is Very Late, I Still Want To Apologize. I Make My Way Upstairs. She May Be Hurting Right Now.

I Can't Just Apologize, I Have To Make It Up To Her Too. I Can't Believe Myself, Why Did I Do What I Did? I'm Such An Idiot. You Know, She Did Act A Little Weird Before She Said She Was Cooking Dinner Tonight. Is There Something That She's Hiding? Something She Didn't Tell Me? Is She Planing On Leaving? Maybe I'm Just Over Thinking This. Well Anyways, I Made My Way Upstairs, Up To Her Room. She's Not In Here, I Know She Wouldn't Just Pack Her Bag And Leave. When I Turn To Go Back Downstairs I Hear A Loud Door Slam. When I Reached The Bottom Of The Steps, There Was Ruth. Breathing Heavily, As If She Just Ran For Her Life.

"Ruth, What's Happened!"
She Takes In Many Breaths Before She's Able To Speak. "Come Sit." She Nods And Walks Back And Forth Which Made Me A Bit Nervous.

"I Went Out For A Walk, Just To Clear My Mind. A Car Passed By And Stop. Some Girl Got Out And Spoke To Me Like She Knew Me. She Got Closer And Closer And I Just Ran. I Didn't Know Who She Even Was. I Got Scared For A Moment." She Cries On My Shoulder As I Hugged Her. There's No Way It Could Have Been Julie Who Seen Her.

"I'm Scared.... Dylan, I'm So Scared. I Felt Like They Were Going To Take Me Away."

"They? Who's They?"

"Someone Else Was In The Car And I Couldn't Tell Who It Was." She Gets Up While I Have A Face Reaction To All Of This. How Is It Possible That Julie Seen Ruth. How? Did She Go Out Too Far For Julie To Have Seen Her.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Babe, I'm Sorry How I Acted Earlier. I Know I Should've Told You The Guys Were Coming Over. I Know Dinner Must've Been Something Special By The Way Everything Was Set Up. I'm Just Sorry." She Doesn't Say A Word. She Smiles Then Kisses Me. Does It Mean Everything Is Okay Now? She Lies Back On The Couch And Lays Her Hand Gently On Her Stomach. Is There Something Going On Or What? What Does That Mean?

"Uh Ruth, Is Something Going On?" She Sits Up Grabbing Hold Of Both Of My Hands And Looks Me Straight In The Eyes Very Passionately. She Takes In A Deep Breath. I'm On My Knees Just Dying To Know. You Know, As I'm Waiting To Know What She's Going To Tell Me. I've Never Been In This Moment Before. I Mean I Have But This One Is Somehow Special. Okay Now Back To Reality.

"Dylan.... I'm Pregnant." Sweet Mama Jesus. Am I Hearing This Right. I Can't Believe She's-Oh My-Wow. I Get Up, Letting Her Hands Go. I'm Full Of Excitement. I Don't Know Whether To Scream Or To Run. I Can Just Do Anything. I Mean I Sure Did Want To Start A Family But I'd Never Thought It Would Be Now.

I'm Going To Be A Dad. Wow, I'm Going To Be A Dad! I Turn Back Looking At Ruth. She's Crying, Why Would She Be Crying? Is This Not What She Wanted, Or Was It My Mistake? If Her Not Wanting A Child, It Could Lead Up To Abortion. I Don't Want Her Have An Abortion. I Swear I Would Never Forgive. If She Doesn't Want The Child Then I'll Take Care Of The Baby Myself. No Way On Earth Would I Give Up This Baby Of Mine.

"Why Are You Crying?"

"I Didn't Think This Would Be Your Reaction. I Thought Maybe You Wouldn't Want A Child. I Thought You Would Be Angry With Me, I'm Sorry." She Wiping Her Tears Away.

My Reaction? Why Would She Ever Think This. I Would Never, I Come To Her, Sitting Beside Her. I Bring In For A Hug. I'm Not Like Any Other Guy That's Out There. I'm Not The Type Who Would Get Their Girlfriend Pregnant, End Up Leaving Causing Her To Raise The Child. No, That's Not Me. Not All Guys Are Born The Same, Even If We Are Such Dick Heads.

"Ruth, Don't Ever Think I Would Leave You. Cause I Won't Ever. I Promise You No Matter What. We'll Raise This Baby Together." With That Being Said That Closes Our Night. We Went To Bed, Well She Did. I Just Stayed Up. I Just Sat There Imagining With This Child, Everything Changes. Changing Diapers, Feeding, Screaming And Crying And What More Could Come. Then As They Grow, I'll Become The I'll Become The Old Man.

Most Importantly, I Don't Know Whether If It's A Girl Or Not. I Want To Have A Boy Cause You Know, They Don't Need Tampons, They Don't Need You Know Girl Stuff. Guys Don't Need That Stuff. Of Course It'll Come To That Type Of Talk Guy To Guy But Anyways, I'll Be Find With Whatever The Gender Of The Baby Will Be. I Already Have The Name In Mind, If It's A Boy Arturo. If It's A Girl Emilee.

Jeez, Everything Is Passing By Me So Quickly. I Honestly Wasn't Expecting A Child So Soon. Now, In Nine Months There Will Be A Child In My Arms. Holding My Finger With Its Tiny Hand. Then He Or She Will Say Their First Words, First Few Steps. Haha The Baby Teeth Coming. I Know There's A Lot To Taking Care Of A Child But, Hey I'll Do Whatever It Takes. This Means I Can't Be Drinking, Staying Up Late, Nor Doing Anything Stupid. In Order For Me To Be A Good Parent, I Have To Act Right. I Wonder If We Could Find Out The Gender Of The Baby Soon.
