Pregnant at 14

Ch 39

Their voices resonated through the dark theater

The smell of popcorn surrounded me, although it smelled inviting even crave worthy, I hated popcorn

Gabriel long since fallen asleep beside me, taking low steady breaths

So much for a date

Gabriel, as always, walked out of the house just expecting me to follow him. I remember asking him where we were going, imagine my shock when he said the movie theatre

I know he doesn't like me and maybe he never will, but still, I was glad. This is the closest we've been since...I don't remember actually

Even asleep, the warmth of his presence did bad things to my body, my toes curled but my eyes stayed trained in the movie

His face was covered anyway, with his sweater

It wasn't a surprise that Gabriel fell asleep while watching Big Hero 6

The movie ended with tears brimming my eyes, the lights overhead turned on giving the red room a soft orange hue

I rubbed my eyes as Gabriel began to stand up and stretch, his shirt rose just the slightest and I had to control my breathing and hormones. I gulped at the sight of his happy trail that led to happy places

Hehe

He put his sweater back on and pulled up his hood "why are you crying?" He asked rubbing the tiredness from his eyes

My hand reached up to my face and remembered that yes, I was in fact crying "that movie was just so beautiful" I told him walking through the entrance

He walked up to the counter then came back with napkins in his hand "clean your face" he demanded passing it to me

I snatched the napkin from his hand and said "I'm only cleaning my face because I want to not because you told me to"

As usual he rolled his eyes and replied "shut up Tiffany" then walked out of the movie theatre

I walked a few feet behind him, by now I was used to the stares, the judgement, the comments but it sure as hell didn't make it any easier

A group of teenage girls stumbled in through the entrance one of the looked at me and said "Look it's a whore" she immediately looked to see her friends reaction

Look it's an attention whore

I pointed at myself as they looked at me

"Yes you" the girls replied "who else?"

"Where's the father?" Another asked, they had gotten closer to be now

I threw the napkin down on the floor and stomped towards them muttering obscenities until a hand wrapped around my wrist pulling me back

"Right here" Gabriel told them

They started oohing

"Ew why are you with her?" Another one said

I struggled in Gabriels grasp "bitch keep talking watch" I told her

"Ooh feisty" the first one said

"I will fight you, in the face, try me bitch" I told her, kicking and punching Gabriel

He dragged me out as I continued screaming and array of colorful words

Once outside I turned to him "why did you pull me? I was going to fight her"

Gabriel rolled his eyes and began walking "in the face? Tiffany, you're pregnant"
