Rosie's View;
When I arrived home, Mother was on the couch. That's all she could really do, anyways. "Mom." I whispered.
"Hi sweetheart." Mother replied with her soft voice.
I sat beside my mother, and stayed silent for a couple of minutes. Then everything came out, how I was pregnant, how James raped me, and how I didn't want to charge James with anything.
"If you don't want to press charges, then we must get a restraining order." Mother replied, sternly. "Are you keeping this child?"
"I don't want too, it isn't Hayes' child. It would be wrong to keep it." I replied, and mother held me tight in her arms, rubbing my back.

The next morning, Mother and I went to the clinic. The nurse who had called the day before was standing in front of me. "You don't want to keep this child?" Savannah asked shocked.
"No, I don't. My boyfriend and I have made the decision not to keep it. When am I able to get an abortion?" I got straight to the point, ignoring the whole thing with James.
"For your age, we can not do surgery. Your body hasn't completed its cycle of growing. So we would have to prescribe a pill. It should stop or lighten your menstrual cycle. Does this sound alright, Ms.Lesley?" Savannah gave me an answer, also approving it by my mother.
"That's perfectly fine with me." Mom replied, with a glare in her eyes.

Hayes sat in the airport waiting for his flight to be called, as I sat beside him. He was going to DWTS for the season finale. "I'm only going to be gone for two days, love." Hayes whispered, into my cheek, holding onto my body.
"I know, but two days seem like an eternity." I answered, holding onto his hand tighter.
"Yea, I suppose so." Hayes sighed, glancing at his watch. "My flight is going to be called soon."
Both of us stood up and immediately we embraced each other. "I love you so much, Rosie. Please go see Skylynn, she never shuts up about you." Hayes laughed, a tear streaming down his face.
He cleared it away quickly and took ahold of my lips. "I love you so much." Hayes whispered, after we disconnected.
"I love you too, Hayes."
