Dylan

After I got home from work, I seen her standing in the kitchen making dinner as I was putting my work supplies away.

Rayna: hey...

Dylan: hey...

Rayna: I know that you're probably still upset with me and I'm sorry, I just thought that I would save you the embarrassment from your dad questioning you helping me the way that you have...

Dylan: I know that I could have handled things differently but I don't want my dad thinking we're engaged to be married.

Rayna: I will tell him the truth next time I see him.

Dylan: okay...

*two weeks later*

I seen sitting with her at my dad's place of business while I listened to her telling him the truth about us.

Will: so you two aren't getting married?

Rayna: no sir, I was in a bad place when he found me and he's been helping me ever since

Will: is the baby...?

Dylan: she's pregnant with someone else's child, she was abused by him and I found her laying outside the bar where I worked before and she's been with me ever since.

Will: I see...

Rayna: I know that I lied to you and I don't have any excuse for doing it.

Will: you seem like a good woman Rayna but you shouldn't have got my son involved in whatever mess you're in.

Rayna: I do apologize to you and Dylan...

She quietly left as I followed after her, I knew my dad would be upset when he discovered the truth about her.

Dylan: Rayna wait...

Rayna: your dad is right Dylan, I shouldn't have got you involved in the mess I am in so I will go back to California and stay with my brother, it will be as if you and I never met.

Dylan: what will happen to you?

Rayna: I will go on the road with my brother and his band and you can carry on with your life like I never existed.

Dylan: what about your baby?

Rayna: I will raise the child the best way I can.

Dylan: I...

Rayna: please don't make this harder than it already is.

Dylan: I don't want you to go...

Rayna: why?

Dylan: because I love you.

Rayna: well than stop loving me...

I watched as she walked away from me, I knew that she would go back to her brother and she did exactly that.
