Amy comes rushing out of the house and she looks pissed, "Adenna, Adenna what is this" she asks coming up to me, "Amy" my mom calls to her "No No stay away" I say stepping in front of Amy. "Officer Rose here has gotten a search warrant due to Dante being friends with DJ," I say and glared at my mother.

"You did this," Amy asks breathlessly "A..Amy we have to consider every possibility," my mom says "My son is dead and you are throwing around his stuff to find what," she asks and I see that fire in her eyes that I thought was burned out. "Amy I am sorry but-" "No. Please go do your job officer Rose" Amy puts her hand up.

"I'm sorry Amy. I for-" I hold my stomach, "Denna" DJ calls me and I turn around and run to a bush puking my guts out. "Ugh" I groan, "Have you eaten today," DJ asks rubbing my back "No all the smells are getting to me" I take a deep breath. "Adenna are you okay," Amy asks patting my back "Yes it's just the baby" I groan and my eyes shoot open realizing what I just said. "W...What," she asks and DJ helps me up, "I...I" I grab onto DJ feeling woozy "Oh....You and DJ-"

"NO" me and DJ yell shaking our heads "I...It's Dante's" I whisper holding my stomach. "Y...you're pregnant with...Dante's" she asks looking down "Yes mam I found out a couple of weeks ago," I say looking down "I didn't want to tell anyone yet. But you deserve to know" I shake my head feeling emotional all of a sudden. "That's wonderful news" she smiles and I feel shocked she smiled, "Do the boys know," she asks "I just told them yesterday" I nod.

"That's wonderful Adenna." She pauses and looks down. "I'm sorry for everything Adenna. The boys needed their mom and I wasn't there I'm sorry" she whispers. "Miss Amy it's okay. You just lost your son you need time to grieve" I say placing a hand on her "All you can do is take it slow one day at a time. That's what I'm doing with the baby" I say and she smiles "THE WHAT" I look up and see my mom fuming "YOU'RE FUCKING PREGNANT" she screams approaching me and reaching out for me.

I see a hand grab hers and I see DJ who looks pissed and right beside DJ's hand is Amy's. They both look ready to murder, "I will not let you touch her" DJ growls. "Let go of me" my mom snatches her hand away. "Oh. Oh, I see. You spread your legs for a criminal" my mom says glaring at DJ "HEY. Don't talk about him like that" I step in front of DJ "He-" "It doesn't matter you are done get out of my house if you're so grown then you don't have to be with me" she says.

"You know what fine. It doesn't matter it's not like I haven't taken care of myself before. Or have you conveniently forgotten about what he did to me" I say and she looks at me shocked "Anything that is not out of the house by the time I get back is going in the trash" she says and walks away. "Fuck" I huff and kick the trash can, "Hey it's okay you can always stay with me," DJ says patting my back.

"No it's okay DJ, You can stay here we have the basement you can take it if you'd like," Amy says and I look at her surprised. "T..thank you, Amy," I say and she nods "Okay then I'll help you move your stuff" DJ nods. "Thank you guys" I smile, "Amy will you be okay here while me and DJ get some stuff together," I ask and she nods "Yes I will be okay" she gives me a thumbs up. Me and DJ walk over to the house and we go upstairs "Um any bags you find put them on the bed and we'll use that to put some stuff in" I say looking around for bags.

I find a couple and we start putting my clothes in them, I use anything I can as a box and gather the rest of my stuff. "What's this" DJ asks "That's Dante's jacket you gave it to me remember," I say stiffing some clothes into a bag "What are you talking about I only gave you the necklace and his flannel I never gave you this" DJ says confused "What I didn't get a flannel. My mom gave me the bag with the jacket and necklace" I say and he looks at me shocked "Why would your mom give it to you I left it on your bed before I left" he says and I feel my heart racing.

"Wait...that's..... what" I say breathlessly. I then remember something, I motion with my hand for him to come to me and he does "Say you must've gotten things mixed up" I whisper in his ear and he looks at me confused. Why he mouths, "Just do it" I whisper "Oh Man I can't believe that I guess I must've gotten things mixed up then I'm sorry I'm....just being forgetful I guess," he says and I nod, I get on the floor and look around feeling my carpet and then I come across a little bump under my bed.

"It's okay DJ let's just finish packing," I say and cut the piece of the carpet and sure enough there is a little listening device. I pick it up and show it to DJ "Damn Denna what the hell is this shirt" he says grabbing the device "I don't know my mom must've gotten it for me. Can you get rid of it" I say and he nods "Actually on second thought let me see it" I say and he nods handing it back to me.

I quietly walk to the bathroom and drown it in the water knowing that whoever listens back to it will just get a high frequency. "Okay, you know what just zip up anything we got I'm out of here," I say zipping up the bags. "Denna what time does your mom get back from work," DJ asks "Like 9 why," I ask "I'll have that hacker I know to bring some of our devices with your permission," he asks and I nod "I don't know what's going on but yes you have my permission" I nod
