Tension.

Tension was filling the room for sure. Nash and I slowly followed my mom towards the kitchen. My brother was in one corner, staring at us, arms crossed. My mom, with a stern expression, told us to sit down, which we obliged, no comments. Oh, my God I wanted to crawl back to under my sheets and never come out. I glanced at Nash multiple times, he looked nervous and anxiousness was clear in his face. Honestly, I was in the same state.

My mom stared at us for a couple minutes, tapping her red nails against the wooden table, until she finally spoke up, with a cold voice of course. "Did your mother ever teach you about using protection, boy?" was the first thing she asked.

He gulped the lump in his throat and nodded almost robotically. "Yes, ma'am" he said. But she shook her head, and chuckled.

"It doesn't look like it, now does it?" she said, I don't like it when she uses that tone. She send a little glare at Nash's direction, which made him even more nervous. "Do you have any idea what have you done?" she asked.

"Mom" I called out for her. She looked at me, "We know the consequences"

"I bet this young boy doesn't, just look at him, all confident. He will never understand that he's practically ruining your life with this" she said, now folding her arms. I glanced at Alec, he was staring anywhere else but in our direction.

"Mom, this is not only Nash's fault. It's mine too" I said.

"You were drunk! You weren't thinking straight, and–and he took advantage of you! Don't defend him, Gwen. Please, you're being too naïve"

"He was drunk too, mother! We were both not capable of possibly knowing what was happening. I won't let you blame him for this, because I have just as much fault as him"

"Gwen—"

"We know, there are consequences with this, but pointing fingers and fighting over what is already done, won't solve anything" I said, calming a little. Screaming and arguing won't do any good, it will just keep adding more fuel to the fire. 

She let go a heavy sigh, and rubbed her hands on her face. "You should've told me before what was happening" she said. I nodded at her response, biting my lower lip.

"I know, and I'm sorry"

A couple minutes passed by, not knowing what to say. I glanced at Nash, who was fidgeting with his fingers. My mom was staring blankly at somewhere else, lost in thought. Not even Alec spoke, he was just sighing, shaking his head, not once looking at us.

"This can cause so much damage to your future" my mom stayed, but it looked like she was just talking to herself. I stayed in silence, bringing my attention back to her. She stared at Nash, a mini glare was plastered on her face. "I don't want you to ever hang out with my daughter, you hear that?" Nash snapped his head up and had a shocked expression.

"Excuse me?" he choked out.

"You heard me, young boy, I don't care how much Gwen defends you, it clearly seems like you're a bad influence. I want you out of my daughter's life. . .Now get out" she said through gritted teeth. Nash looked at me, ignoring my mom's words.

"Gwen, say something" he pleaded, and his voice made my heart ache. I stayed quiet though, it's a better choice when there's such tension. I glanced at him, but I couldn't hold that gaze for longer, it pained me to see him plead like that.

My mom let go a heavy sigh, which made Nash and I bring our attention back to her. "I know that kids these days are curious and want to experiment. Believe me, I was a teenager too. But, it's not right that you put my daughter through this. This is for the best. . .I'm trying to protect her" I fidgeted with my fingers. I know my mother's intentions are good, and of course, this is her daughter that is pregnant. But, Nash is not bad. Forbidding me of seeing him isn't going to do any good, specially since I'm having his baby too.
