Bryce's POV.
Now trust me I was so happy about me and Juli, but something needed to be done about Garret kissing my girl. MY GIRL! Who does he think he is?
The worst part is Garret knew I liked her. But that didn't stop him.
I called Garret up to "shoot some hoops".
Once he arrives I lead him out back where my basketball hoop is and pass him the ball.
"Wow buddy calm down," he says as I throw the ball to him.
"Why'd you do it man?" I ask. "Do what?"
"I know you kissed Juli..."
"Look bro I'm sorry," he says coming closer. Before he takes another step I punch him in the face. Once he's down I kick him hard a couple of times. I then grab him by the hair a punch him again leaving his nose trickling blood.
2 MONTH TIME JUMP!
Bryce's POV.
Life has been good; me and Juli are spending loads of time together, Lynetta has been off my back because she's always with Matt, and Garret had stayed away from me and Juli.
Juli's birthday is coming up soon and I'm having a hard time of deciding what to get her. But then it hits me. I will always regret not going up in that sycamore tree and helping Juli rebel against those men.
I need to buy her a sycamore tree and plant it in her yard so when she wakes up in her birthday she will see it. I'm so excited to see her reaction. But first things first I must ask her fathers permission.
On a Tuesday after school I see Mr. Baker working in his garage, so I take the opportunity to talk to him. I walk over a day,"Excuse me Mr. Baker, I have something to ask you..."
"No you can't marry my daughter," he jokes. My face flushes red and I nervously laugh.
"No, I was wondering since Juli's birthday is coming up if I could plant a sycamore tree in your yard so she wakes up to it on her birthday."
"That's a lovely idea Bryce, I wish I would have thought of it. Yes you have my permission. Your a fine young man Bryce Loski. I'll talk to you later." I wave a goodbye and he goes back to work.
Once I get home I do some homework and text Juli. Knowing me I quit with the homework and make my main focus Juli. I ask her to come over and she agrees saying she'll be here soon.
Once she gets here I suggest going on the roof. This is kinda our spot now. We sit and talk about our day at school and then I bring up the Garret thing. She doesn't know and was asking me why Garret never talked to us the other day.
"Look so I know your confused to why Garret doesn't talk to us and I'll tell you why, just promise not to get mad," I tell her.
"No promises," she giggles.
I sigh and then continue,"Well I invited him over one night and beat him up because he kissed you..."
Juli gasped then says,"How did you know about that?"
"I overheard you at the auction..." She had a look of shock on her face. "You weren't supposed to know," she whispered.
"Why not?" I ask my voice getting higher.
"That's not the problem Bryce, you beat him up!"
"Why do you care so much?"
"Because no one should have to go through that."
"Well to bad he did. I think you should leave," I say my heart slowly braking. She slowly gets up and jumps off the roof at its lowest point. I see tears in her eyes and I feel so awful that I caused them. But it was her own fault. Could she possibly like Garret?
Lynetta's POV.
Everything was great. Until that one night. Me and Matt went to a party at my friend Becca's house. Matt's brother Mike was there as well.
So I guess I must have put my drink down and someone spiked it because that night was full of twists and turns.
To sum things up, things that shouldn't have been done, were done. I didn't realize at the time I was with Mike, but I was.
Around 2 weeks later I started to feel nauseated. I threw up a couple times but didn't think much of it, maybe it was food poisoning. But then when Becca was over one night and I threw up, the awful possibility was brought up.
After school the next day me and Becca went to the drugstore and bought a few pregnancy tests. We went back to her place, my heart racing faster than possible.
I took the test and close my eyes before looking at the result. I slowly bring the test to my face and see the result.
Positive.
I took the rest of them but it was all the same.
The worst part is that I didn't even know who he father was.
