College Years (Sequel to Theres Always A Catch Austin Mahone FanFic)

Chapter 27

***Teals POV***

It's been a week since I found out I was pregnant and I still have not told Robert. I want to, I really do, but the timings never right. He either comes home with the crew, late at night, hungry, or sweaty and tired. I just need to have a day or night with just us but its too hard.

I want so badly to just pack up and go to Eli's and see if he even notices im gone. He barely even kisses me unless we are alone or he finally has time for me. I miss him. We don't have our jobs anymore, we got fired.

Apparently, dumping a whole thing of whip cream on an extremely rude customer isn't okay. And having your boyfriend defend you isn't the best thing either.

"Hey" I turned my head to see Robert standing in the doorway. "What's this?"

He gestured towards the dining room table with all of our favorite foods and candles on it.

"I just have some big news for you."

"Oh. Well I was gonna go out with the guys tonight for dinner." My heart sank while my anger rose. "Sorry I didn't call in advance. I just thought you'd be okay with it. You didn't exactly tell me we had anything planned."

"Robert, ya know what, forget it. Forget everything! Have fun with the guys." I was blowing out all the candles. "But when you finally have time for your girlfriend, who you dont even seem to care about anymore, give me a call. Im staying at Eli's." I grabbed my coat, purse, and keys and opened the front door. "Oh. And by the way, the news i was so nervous but excited to tell you, IM PREGNANT. DOUCHE BAG."

With that, I walked as fast as I could down our drive way to my car and climbed in. I turned on the car and checked all my mirrors and turned on the radio. It was on commercials so I opened up the windows only to hear someone calling my name.

"Teal! Teal!! Please.. wait!!" I looked up to find Robert halfway to my car. "Im sorry!" he yelled. I turned down the radio and let him talk to me thru the window. "Im sorry. I haven't been there, I haven't been supportive, I haven't been a good boyfriend, I haven't even kissed you and Im sorry. Sorrier than you'll ever know."

He was crying by now and, frankly, i didn't feel bad anymore.

"Ya know what Robert? This past month you haven't just been gone physically. But when you're there, you aren't there. You dont talk to me, you talk at me. You hear me but you dont listen. You acknowledge me but treat me like an old friend. I have done my best to revive this relationship. I made you all your favorite foods and bought a new dress to wear tonight. For the past month, you've come home almost every night at three A.M. and think i dont notice. I have cried so hard because I lost Lucy and Jen and I didn't have ANYONE to comfort me. You wanna know how that feels? Like shit, Robert!!!! You DONT understand. You're NEVER there. You DONT care anymore!!! You have three days to figure out what you want in life. I will raise this baby on my own if I have to. And if I do, she won't even know your name." I took my car out of park before he could reply. "Goodbye Robert."

"No. No. No. Teal! Wait!!" He ran after me about half way down the block and I almost stopped but I meant what I said.

He stopped running after me and he cursed under his breath. He ran his hands thru his hair and walked away. He turned back to watch me keep driving and he kept his hands thru his pockets. Once I turned the corner, he was out of my sight.

I set up my blue tooth in my car while at a vacant intersection's stop light. Once it was done, I typed in 'Call Eli' and it did. Once she answered I just kept calm before I cried.

"Hello?" Her sweet voice rang.

"Hey, is it okay if I stay with you for a couple days? Finally.. uh.. blew up. I just need to get away for a while."
