Senior Year

Its Complicated

Alex's POV
"Its was a pleasure meeting you Alexandra. Your dad wasn't lying when he said your a great kid with a bright future. Also very beautiful." Rosemarie said in a soft voice as she hugged me which of course I responded to. "It was a pleasure meeting you also." Fake smiles cover the real one.

"We should do this sometime often. Is tomorrow find with you guys and for you too Dylan?"

Well can this get any better...

"Sure why not."

Why not? I don't know maybe because I dated your son which by the way he left me waiting for the past couple years more like a decades (it felt like years and decades). Every time I see him it feels like the first time I seen him in class. I still love him and going together somewhere on the last days I'm here in New York is making the feeling expand like cancer all over my body. Acceptance is the stage I was going threw. Dylan wasn't just that guy that I loved, he knew how to make me feel better on my worst days. He's a great guy what am I saying he is an amazing guy. No matter what, I think a part of me would always love him for the smallest things.

"See you guys soon bye."

On the way home the car ride was silent. I didn't know how to even explain to my father how Dylan even came in the picture of my life portrait. One day I'll tell him but today is not the day for that. And with those words I knew I was lying to myself. Telling him that is like telling him he can't love Rosemary.

Dylan's POV

"I knew from the beginning you wouldn't change your phone number. But I just wanted to say if you don't want me to go to the trip or wherever were going I wouldn't go. I'm truly sorry for what happened back in California. One day if you let me I can explain to you why things happened like they did. -Dylan"

All I did is wait... wait...wait...and more waiting but she wouldn't respond. Come on Alex please answer the text. At least with an okay or something. Laying in bed almost dying to know is not helping at all. I cant believe I had the guts to even touch her. I know I'm kinda going to regret doing that but hey you literally have to live in the moment. I love her and that's all I have to say.

BUZZZZZZZZZ. Was the sound of my phone.

"I'm pregnant" Is all I see on my screen intill I recognized who sent the message. TIFFANY!

Alex's POV

" I knew from the beginning you wouldn't change your phone number. But I just wanted to say if you don't want me to go to the trip or wherever were going I wouldn't go. I'm truly sorry for what happened back in California. One day if you let me I can explain to you why things happened like they did. -Dylan"

I really did want to know what happened that made him want to leave California. But curiosity can kill you. Probably will kill me as well. I didn't answer the message intill two hours later. I had to think about this response.

"No, no its fine really. You can come, I know you barely found out about your birth mother an I won't want nothing to ruined your guys' growing relationship. I would appreciate if you don't mention nothing to her or my dad please. Just keep your distance from me okay. Forgiving you doesn't come easy. But I will, now that were going to see each other often. We'll talk when the time is right. Time is all I need."

That pretty much the end of our conversation, he never responded. But I think he gets the point.

Rosemary's POV

"Hey guys, were just waiting for Dylan he's running a little late thats all. Hopefully he'll be here soon."

"Rose it's okay he'll come give him time." And dad said as he placed a kiss on her forehead.

"I know I'm just nervous I haven't seen him since he was born and I'm scared he doesn't forgive me. He said he needed time but I'm still scared."

"Everything is going to be okay I promise." My dad says once again while placing his hand in hers. Cheesy move dad.

20 minutes later... (Alex's POV)
"Sorry I'm so late I just was picking up Tiffany." My heart sank to the deck, girlfriend? I should have known. He won't have waited for me. He didn't even love me in the first place to stay. Well explains so much.
"Nice meeting you ma'am. Dylan talks about you all the time." Well there goes my love life. Breathe.

"Did Dylan mentioned to you that we're pregnant." Right when she said that Dylan looked at me. My heart just got murdered. Wow! All I could do was look down threw the cracks of the deck. The sound of peaceful water was all I could here.

After we all introduced ourselves to Tiffany, Rosemary explained why she wanted us to meet her here. (She explained how she had a beach house and that she wanted us to hang out in it for four days.) Beach house? Sounds pretty Dylan and mom style. They sure know how to pick them. To top it off her house was off shore. Stranded on the same house to a future step mom, the boy I love & his pregnant girlfriend. Life is just great.

While we got on the boat all I can think about was, Alex your going home soon just do this for your father. You love him and missed him so much. Don't make this separate you from him. I was right I wasn't going to let this separate me from my dad. Suck it up Alex deal with it.
Feeling the fresh air in my face and inhaling the fresh breathable air was the only thing that calmed me down.

All sudden I felt a presence next to me.
"Alex I can explain this all. Please let me. I'm sorry. I have gotten this news just yesterday. Alex I'm sorry again. I love you."

"What do you know about love!!!!!" I blurt out and interrupt his whole speech.
