"Dude wtfff! You just dissed the guy you love," Nat said.
"Nat, he's engaged. He has a kid. I can't ruin that." I said fiddling with my necklace. Natalie was texting and barely looked up.
"So?"
"Nat," I laughed. Natalie laughed too and she stood up.
"Crap. My mom wants me home to babysit Jaclyn. See ya later."
Jaclyn was Natalie's younger sister. In total Natalie had four sisters and two brothers.
• Jamie
• Jaclyn
• Opal
• Meghan
• Dessie
•Kyle
• Tré
Natalie was the middle child, and basically the forgotten one unless her mother needed something. I felt bad for Nat. Her parents didn't care what she did, and they didn't even know she was there half the time. They weren't even going to let Nat go to college, because they said she could stay at home and help with the kids.
My family was different. It was only me, my mom, my dad, and my older sister. My mother and father were a bit older. They were in their 50's, and my sister was in her twenties. Her name was Elizabeth. Elizabeth and me looked just alike, and we were called twins all the time.
I sat on my bed, staring at the ceiling thinking about life. Thinking about Adam. How could all of this really be happening.
"Gracie," my mom called from the living room.
I got up, and walked in. My mother and father were watching tv.
"Yes?" I asked.
" Do you remember Adam Carter?" My father asked, not taking his eyes off the screen. My heart pounded.
"Uhh kind of. What about him?" I said, my mouth dry.
"I heard that his kid just died," my mom said. My gut dropped and I felt sick.
"He has a kid?" I whispered.
"Yes. And apparently it died. I think you should go cheer Adam up," my mom said.
"But I don't know him," I whispered quietly. I felt sick. So sick. Adams
Baby is Dead. Oh my god.
Without thinking I said "never mind I know him," and races out of the house. Tears ran down my cheeks and I jumped in my car, and raced down the street. I parked my car in front of the hospital and ran in. I walked up to the front desk.
"Ma'am where's Adam Carter?" I asked. Tears slipped down my cheeks and the lady pointed down the hall. I sprinted. Finally, I came to a waiting room and I stopped. People everywhere crying. Finally, I saw Adam. He was holding hands with Olivia, sobbing. I backed up slowly, and sunk to the floor sobbing
