No Regrets

Chapter 23

Chandler's POV!

"Mom he won't stop crying and it's making me mad." I said knocking on their door.

My dad opened the door and my mom walked past us. I walked in and sat on the couch in their room.

"I should so kill me you right now son."

"I didn't know it would be this bad."

"Kids cry. You didn't and I enjoyed that, but your just a kid yourself. What where you thinking when you agreed to this?"

"I don't know. I love little kids and I have watched him before. I guess it wasn't my best idea ever."

"Chandler your eighteen and out of high school. When I look at you all I see is myself. I tied myself down with a lot. Don't tie yourself down. Enjoy being eighteen and having a life. We will help babysit, but you don't want to grow up."

"Thanks dad."

"Your welcome. Now before we have to help your mom out with this kid lets go get a hotel room."

"We can't just leave mom here with a three year old."

"We could if you hurry up."

"Dad."

"Wow seriously. Your actually going to stay here."

"So are you. Family sticks with family."

"Zack isn't family. We can let him sleep with the dog outside."

"Dad."

"Kidding."

I walked to my room and my mom was holding Zack. It is kind of adorable. She turned around and smiled.

"I miss you being this little." she whispered.

She put Zack back down and shut the door. We walked down to the kitchen and she poured some tea.  I would love to see my parents try to actually do this when they where teenagers. I think it would be funny.

"I still can't believe you actually chose to have a kid at fifteen."

"Well sweetie I was not about to do an abortion because I don't believe that is the way out of a non-responsible decision and my parents thought adoption was the answer, but I didn't feel right about doing that either. There really isn't another way to go. I had to move out and get a job and your dad basically had this house ready to go by the time you where born. It worked out."

"How was dads parents reaction?"

"Well he had his own business by the time he was sixteen. His parents forced him to grow up really early. To them it was juts another thing to be happy about. My parents and his parents didn't see eye to eye so they never really approved of your dad. His parents on the other hand loved every second of it."

"Is that why dad wants me to be a business man like him?"

"He just wants the business to stay in our family. Also he already had three kids by the age he was eighteen. One at sixteen, one at seventeen, and one at eighteen. Then of course I had you and I don't know that is all I know from way back then."
