"This food is disgusting." I groan, pushing the table away from me. "I want to go home. I've been stuck in here for two frickin' days without a single anything. Being induced doesn't do shit. I've had my water broken for twenty four hours now and still nothing." I lie down on my back, making sure not to pull anything out of my body. "Can you please pass me that purple book, mum?"
  "The doctor will be back soon to check how dilated you are. I've never seen this book before; did you buy it?" Mum hands me the book and takes her coffee from the bench beside my bed.
  "No it's Michael's journal. Calum gave it to me so I could understand him better or something. He goes into depth about how much he loves burgers and hates it when people make fun of him about it."
  Mum raises an eyebrow. "Right. Your brothers and sister should be here soon. Ashton said the bus was late because of a crash or something."
  "Mum," I pause for a bit while she just stares at me, "do you think I should call Michael? And at least tell him I'm in here? Or that she's at least in safe care in the hospital."
  She sighs. "I told you, you should tell him as soon as you put your butt on that bed. He deserves to know, it does take two to tango. And he cares about you," she gestures to the book, "obviously."
   "If he's here while Ashton is, it won't go down very well. You and I both know that." Opening the book I flick through the next few pages until I'm at my marked point. "I forgive him."
   Mum stays silent for a few moments, but just sips her coffee and puts her phone down. "I knew you would."
   "You think Ashton does?"
   "I know Ashton thinks you will. He even said to me that he doesn't understand why you're still angry at him. He's tried really hard, Thea. During the holidays while you were off doing whatever on your trip with your aunty, he came around everyday. Looking for you. If that isn't dedication or at least love, then I don't know what is."
   "You think?"
   "I know."
   I let my eyes fall back to the purple book in my hands. I feel my stomach churn as I read the first sentence.

  It's been a month since I found out about Thea's pregnancy. In the first three weeks I was so happy. I was going to be a dad; I am going to be a dad. And then Calum said what would Ashton do when he finds out? What will Ashton do when he finds out you're the father of Thea's baby? His little sister he's protected from dudes who just want to get in her pants. And I'm one of those people who went against everything Ashton said. I betrayed him and now I've made a mistake. I've gotten his little sister pregnant. The little sister that I couldn't stand in my form class in year nine, but soon grew to love her just a few months ago. Sure all I wanted was sex from her at first, who wouldn't? She's gorgeous and has the perfect body. Curves in all the right places. But know that I actually love her, it changes everything.
   I cannot stay with her. I just can't put myself through that with Ashton. He'd kill me for even thinking of her in that way. I would if I had a little sister. She's going to hate me for it. She's going to hate me. I won't be able to go to any the of the scans or go baby shopping or put up the cot for it or teach it how to play a instrument. Because I'm just another dead beat dad. Just like every other out there. I'm another one to add to the list of asshole fathers. And I can't do anything about it. And even if I could Ashton wouldn't let me near her. I just know.
