My Leap Of Faith

Mya's POV

"When I was in the third grade I thought that I was gay, 'cause I could draw my uncle was and I kept my room staright."

My phone sang. Great now I have to get up. Not fun. I groaned and sat up. "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy!" my 5 year old son comes running in. A big smile on his face. He means the world to me. "Sebastian!" I say picking him up and starting tickling him. His laughter filled the room with joy.

"Come on, lets go get some breakfast!" I say excitedly. Seb jumps up and runs to the kitchen. "Food. Food. Food!" he said jumping up and down quickly. I let out a small giggle. He is the most adorable kid ever! I poor him a bowl of 'Fruit Loops' He sits down at the table and focuses on his food. I do the same. After a while he finishes. "DONE!" He yells. "Good job baby!" I say congradulating him. He put a smile on his face and puts his bowl in the sink and walks to his room to get ready for school.

I walk over to the couch and sit down and let out a sigh. It has been exausting these past few years. Let me explain myself a little more.

My names Mya Welch I'm 21 and yes I have a 5 year old son. The only reason I got pregnet was because my boyfriend at the time took advatage of me. I was drunk, but hey I was 18, you gotta live young. That was my old motto because Sebastian came along. We live in a studio in Manhattan. My parents are CEO's of a bunch of companies. When I told them I was pregnet they were happy. Suprisingly. I told them I wanted to do this on my own. Yet they insisted on buying me a place first and getting me on my feet. I thank them for that. Seb means everything to me. Without him I wouldnt know what to do. Being a mother changes things. Also being a single mother is hard.

I know Seb needs a father figure in his life but I just cant find anyone. I have friends. But my best friend is Logan Poles. We've known eachother since middle school. When I told him that Ben(Sebs actual father) got me pregnet he was shocked then he made a pledge to always be there for me and Seb. He's the kind of guy friend you can tell anything to and he'll actually listen to you. Unlike some other people.

Today Logan was coming over to pick up Seb and take him to daycare. I need a day off of him. I mean I love him with all my heart, but I've been stressed. Work is getting crazy. My parents are fighting and I think they might get a divorce and Ben some how magically found my number. If he finds me Im screwed.

*Knock Knock Knock*

Logan knocks on the door. Before I got to the door Seb was already opening it "No! Stand back mommy! I can open it!" He says. I think he is in a superhero mood today. "LOGAN!" he shouts when he realizes who's behind the door. "Sebastian! How have you been little man?" Logan askes crouching down to his level. "Good, great, amazing, fantastic!" he says all at once. "Wow! Thats a mouthful!" Logan says acting suprised.

"Hey Mya. How have you been?" Logan says turning to me while picking up Seb. "Ive been good. You?" I respond. "Good." He says with a smile. "Mommy, can Logan be my daddy?" Sebastian looks back and forth between Logan and I. "Maybe someday buddy! But for right know lets go to daycare!!" Logan says looking at Sebastian. "Okay but wait! I need to give mommy a kiss!" He says protesting to leave without a kiss from mom. "Come here bear." I give him a kiss on the nose,"now you go and have a good day!" I smile and wave bye. "I'll be back." Logan says and walks out the door.

I walk to my room so I could change into my day clothes, which consist of a simple pair of skinny jeans and old t-shirt. My tattoos did show. So many people think Im a horrible parent for having so many tattoos around Sebatian at such a young age. Yet I could care less. Seb still loves me. And he always will. He honestly likes to sit next to me on the couch and ask me what each one is about. They all have stories though.

.

"Honey Im home!" Logan shouts. I start laughing. "Oh honey how I've missed you." I say getting up off the couch and giving Logan a hug. He moves down and sits on the couch. I sit in his lap and curl up into a ball, still holding onto Logan. "Whats been bothering you?" He asks me. He knows me like that back of his hand. "Im just really stressed. Work is just hectic. Mom and dad are most liking getting a divorce and Ben got my number." I say really fast.

"Wow. Okay now slow done. Lets tackle these one at a time. Okay?" Logan says looking down at me. I just nod. Not bothering to look up at him. "Whats going on with mom and dad?" he askes. "They have been fighting constantly. Mom moved her office to the other side of the building so she would be away from dad. When there at home they never touch each other. The barley look at eachother. I just dont want them to slit up." I tell Logan.

Logan sits there not saying a word. I can tell he is think of something to say. I just sigh and sink further into his chest. We sit there for about another half an hour until I decide to get up and check my phone. I recived 3 new text messages. 2 from friends wanting to hang out and go to the club tonight. I politley declined. The last one was from an unknown number.

I slowly walked back over to the couch, sitting back in the spot I was in before. "Logan, does this number look fimilar to you?" I ask handing him my phone. He looks at the phone and ponders for a moment. Soon he realizes who the number belongs to. "This is Ben's number." he says weirly. My eyes grow wide. "WHAT! No. This cant be true! Please tell me it is just a joke!" I say, panic filled my voice. "Give me the phone. I'll deal with this." Logan says grabbing the phone out of my hand.

Phone/Text Conversation

B- Mya, Im coming to find you and were going to be a family. Like we are supposed to be.

L- This isn't Mya. It's Logan. Yeah. Remember me? You aren't going to find her.

B- You again? You're just a scrawny little prick. You can't stop me.

L- Yes I can. And so can the Law Enforecement.

B- I will find Mya and Sebastian and we WILL be a family!

End Conversation

Logan looks over at me, security in his eyes. "Its going to be okay Mya. I will keep you and Seb safe. I promise." His voice filled with promise. I scoot closer to him and we sit there in silence. We decided that Seb and I were going to stay at his place while we figure this whole situation with Ben out. I go to my room and pack some close for Seb and I. I look up at Logan knowing everything is going to be okay.

After a couple hours of just talking and figuring things out it was time to go get Seb from day-care. Logan and I both decide to go since we have to drop some stuff off at Logan's house.

Sebatstian is waiting outside the door with one of his teachers. Once he see's Logan's car pull up he comes running over. I get out of the car, pick him up and give him a hug. "Hi Mommy!!" He says with excitment in his voice. "Hey Bear! How was day-care?" I ask putting him down and walking to the car. "Fun, Bo and I got to play with the dinosaurs!" He says. "Wow that sound exciting!" Logan says pitching in on the conversation. "Hiya Logan!" Seb says with a smile on his face!

I look over at Logan. Both not know what's in store for us, or Sebastian.
