"What?" Darry asks with a slight sarcastic chuckle.

"I'm pregnant," She repeats as she feels Darry's hand slip away from her grasp.

There's a moment of silence between them before Darry asks the breaking question.

"How long?"

"Hmm?" Erin asks, trying to play the question off.

"How fucking far are you along" he snaps taking a step closer to Erin.

"Uhm... two months... And I uh- I found out the beginning of last month" Erin stutters, afraid of how he will take it.

Darry moves his hands to his face, trying to process the information. Knowing he'd been lied to the whole time.

"Darry... At least say something" Erin pleads trying to take Darry's hand again.

"No. No, you don't get to do this, not again" Darry snaps qucikly pulling his hand away.

"Darry I'm sorry"

"No you- you made me belive that cheating on you was the worst thing that could happen in our relationship. But you've been hiding your pregnancy from me for a month?!" Darry breaks stepping closer to Erin.

She backs up a little while looking to the side of her so her face wasn't directly in his when she faced back.

"I'm, sorry okay? We had just broken up. And I was so hurt, I didn't even know if I was ready to be a mom or if you were ready to be a dad. Darry I'm sorry" Erin's voice shakes as tears flood her eyes and leak down her face.

Regret hits her like a ton of bricks as she realizes just how much she screwed up. And how angry and hurt Darry is with her.

"No you are not the one who gets to be upset about this. I am, you don't get to lie to me about a baby! Erin mean Jesus christ" Darry hollars quietly gripping Erin's arms.

He pushes against the wall looking at her while she looks down at her feet. Tears flow down her face as she tries to pull away from Darry's grip, when Trish comes over to get the pair for the cops.

"Darry! What the hell are you doing?" She asks as Darry whips his head around releasing Erin's hands.

They both look at Trish while she stares with anger and confusion in her face.

"Darry, go speak to the police" Trish instructs pointing over to the table and starts walking over to Erin.

Darry makes his way to the police and Trish stands infront of Erin.

"What the hell is going on with you?" She asks watching her body movements.

"Trish I'm pregnant, and I've known for a month" Erin spits out.

Trish sighs as she looks at Darry who comes marching over to the pair. The police head out to their car to speak on the raido, while Trish stops Darry from getting closer to Erin by putting a hand on his arm.

"I want to be in the babies life, now that I know. I want to be in their lives, " Darry says in a frantic breath.

"Darry, I didn't plan on telling you because he doesn't need a father who'll cheat!" Erin blurts out facing Darry.

"He?" Darry asks with a bit of relief in his voice.

"Shit" Erin whispers.

She opens her mouth when the owner of the gas station interrupts the conversation.

"That's your car out there?" The lady asks.

Trish nods her head, and the three go walking outside to find the car windows broken, Darry's clothes on the ground, and the drivers side door open.

"Still think it's in my head?" Darry turns to Trish as they walk up the car.

Darry picks up a pair of underwear with his name on it and flings it around in anger before throwing it back in the car.

"Great now he even knows my name!"

"Dar, look," Erin says, facinated by something on the car door.

Darry walks over along with Trish and the two police officers looking at a dusty handprint.

"You can dust that get a dna, right?" Darry asks looking to the police officers.

"It looks like somebody already did," The male officer says as he gets on his walkie.

The cops tell the three to get in their car and drive down to police station where they would meet them there. Trish got in the drivers seat with Darry, and Erin hopped in the back. They drive down the road and only a few minutes later Darry starts freaking out over a song.

While distracted the police car flies infront of them causing a hard break. The three step out of the car and Trish stalks her way towards the bashed up car.

"Trish, get back in the car" Darry says in a panic as he touches the top of the car feeling the wet blood on his fingertips.

"Are you alright in there?" Trish calls out ignoring her brother's demand as a tall cloaked man in a hat steps out of the cop car.

"Trish... get back in the car!" He yells again this time in a clear panic.

The three get back in the car quickly as they watch thing take the male police officers head, and pull his tounge out with his teeth.

"Trish go... Trish drive!" Darry yells pounding on the back of the seat.

She punches the gas and they fly down the road. When they get closer to a small town type village Darry instructs Trish to slow down multiple times untill she comes to a complete stop.

"What are you doing?" Darry asks annoyed.

"You said to stop"

"I said to slow down come on"

"Come on, let's see if there's a phone we can borrow" Trish says backing up and pulling into a drive way.

"Are you guys coming or what?" Trish asks opening the door and looking at the pair.

Darry and Erin step out of the car when a sudden wave of nausea hits her like a ton of bricks, and the world spins for a couple of seconds.

"Hey, you okay?" Trish asks looking back at Erin grabbing Darry's attention.

"Yeah, yeah I'm good" she responds not being completely truthfull.

They walk up to a white house with a front porch and millions of cats growiling and hissing. While an old lady comes waddling out.

"Excuse me, my names Trisha Jenner, this is my brother Darry, and friend Erin"

"And?" The lady asks walking closer to the screen door.

"Well do you have a phone we could borrow?" Trish asks looking back at her brother and Erin.

"I don't have one.. what's it to ya if I did anyways?"

"We need to call the police, somebody was killed"

"You don't wanna bring them up this way" the woman says in a tone.

"Did you hear us? Someone was killed!" Erin snaps.

Darry looks over to the feilds and notices the thing that'd been following them standing infront of the scarecrow.

"Guys we've got a problem"
