ONE IN A HALF MONTHS LATER•

"Dear god!" Sarah groans, hugging her stomach. She's now four months pregnant and she is really not enjoying it. "All I want is a bowl of carrots." She cries. Like, she is literally crying right now. I guess being pregnant is really affecting her. I sigh and open the fridge, grabbing the bag of baby carrots out of the vegetable drawer. I bring it over to her and hand it to her. She gasps and tears the bag open I sit down next to her, rubbing her back.

"Thank you so much." She says, stuffing the carrots in her mouth.

"No problem." I say. I look at her face. She had black lines from her makeup running. "Aw Sarah, your makeup." I say. She sniffs and nods. Then, the front door opened and in walked Brendon. She stands up, bag of carrots in one hand, the other hand is pointing at him.

"You did this to me!" She partly yells. "There is a literal child growing in my uterus because of you!" She says. I don't know if I should laugh or not. Brendon put up his hands in defense.

"Hey, you wanted to-" I cut him off.

"Yeah, I'm right here so..." I trail off he he chuckle softly.

"Ah, your a teenager." He says before walking over to her and pulling her onto the couch and onto his lap. "When I was your age, I had already lost my virg-" I cover my ears and start running up the stairs.

"La la la la la! There goes my innocence!" I shout as I run on the stairs.

"Well Hun, now you know!" He shouts back and I hear him get slapped. Sarah's really funny when she's like this.

I sigh and sit down on my bed. I grab my phone and lay down. There was a new text message from Charlie.

Charlie: "Hey, I'm coming over because is February and it's kinda hot out and it's the weekend and you're my girlfriend and I want to spend time with you."

I giggle and sit up. That was sent five minutes ago meaning...

There was a knock on my door. "Come in!" I shout and Charlie walks in.

"What's up with Sarah?" He asks, sitting at my side.

"Hormones." I say with a chuckle.

"She threw a carrot at me and told me that my hair looks like a Chandler Riggs wanna-be." He says.

"Hormones." I reply once again before pulling his face to mine. I kiss him before an idea pops into my head. "Let's go swimming." I say with a smile. He smiles back and nods.

"Yes." He hops up and pulls his swim spit from my underwear drawer. He pulls my suit out too and throws it at me. I giggle and take it, walking into my bathroom and changing. I pull my hair up into a high pony tail. I drop my hands to my sides and admire myself in the mirror. And at that very moment, I noticed that I wanted tattoos.

I kinda sorta have the body to get a sleeve. Maybe even two. Oh! Or I could get an album cover tattooed on me. Brendon had an Everytime I Die cover tattooed on his arm. Okay, time to step away from the mirror before I want to tattoo my whole body. I open my door and bump into Charlie who puts his hands on my waist and smiles down at me.

"Woah woah woah, slow down there." He says. I giggle and punch him in the stomach. He lets out an puff of air and he steps back. I walk past him and into the hall. We walk down stairs. Sarah was now eating potato chips with the carrots. Like...at the same time. Brendon looks at me and mouths words at me.

"Don't ask." He mouths before continuing to rub her back. I giggle and Charlie and I walk outside, dodging a few flying carrots.

Charlie chuckles and picks me up. Oh god, not again. "I swear to god! Don't you dare." I say and glare at him. He chuckles and looks at me for a moment. He gently sets me down and I giggle, knowing what I was about to do.

I put my hands on his chest and push, causing him to go flying into the pool. He gasps as he hits the water. Well, I'm screwed. He swims to the top the side of the pool and looks up at me.

"Was that necessary?" He says, giggling and wiping hair out of his face.

"Payback." I say, hopping into the warm water. I feel two arms wrap around my waist and I was pulled up. He turns me so I was facing him and holds me since my feet don't touch the bottom. I wrap my legs around his sides.

"You're really cute, you know that?" He says, tightening his grip. I giggle and blush, looking away. He brings his hand to my face and places it on my cheek. He leans in and kisses me gently. "I'm gonna miss you this summer." He says with a smile.

"I'll miss you too." I say, kissing him again. He chuckles and kisses back. He walks forward and presses me up against the side of the pool. The kiss deepened and get more intense. I ran my hands through his hair and tilted my head. Then, Brendon walked out. I quickly pull away and crawl off of him. We try to look as normal as possible.

"Yeah, I saw you two." He says, glaring at Charlie. "And I didn't like it, break it up." He says before waking back inside. I turn to Charlie who chuckles.

"Well, that was awkward." I say with a laugh before wrapping my arms around his neck again.

A FEW HOURS LATER•

We stood in front of my house as the sunset. I wrapped my arms around his neck and stand on my tippy toes. "I had fun today." I said. He smiles and wraps his arms around my waist.

"Me too." He leans in and kisses me softly. "Well, I better get going before my parents freak out." He says and gives me one last kiss. He pulls away and grabs his skateboard.

"Bye." I say, waving to him before walking back inside. Brendon stood there with a smile.

"Look at you." He says, smiling at me. "You have a boyfriend, you're going on Warped Tour, you are happy." He says with a sigh. "I hope you know that I'm proud of you." He says walking over and hugging me.

"I know." I say into his chest. He runs his hand through my hair and kisses the top of my head.

"You're a good kid, Syd. A really good kid." He says into my hair. I smile and take in the moment.
