Forced Love

Fifteen

Alyssa ~
He walked with a slump in his posture. So weird.
"Shawn." He looked and put on a plastic smile on his face. His cheeks were stained with black trails.
"I got the tests, Shawn." I dragged myself over to Shawn with the tests still in my grasp.
"Well... Are they..." He bit his bottom lip with anxiety written across his forehead.
"They're negative."
"Oh thank GOD!" He wrapped his massive arms around mine in relief.
"I'm so glad they're negative," he continued," I would've been so mad." He laughed in embarrassment.
"What do you mean?" I took a seat on our couch in confusion.
"I would've been real mad if you were pregnant." He followed and took seat next to me.
"Mad?" I gritted my teeth around in confusion and frustration.
"Yeah, well-"
"Mad that we're human beings with sexual organs?"
"I'd be mad because it would ruin my life."
"What?!"
"I mean-"
"How would you have reacted? What if I was pregnant? Would you just leave?"
"No! I'm just saying that I'm only eighteen and it would suck with a baby."
"Ugh." I rolled my eyes and I read red my head onto the palm of my hand. Shawn rubbed his hand on my back in awkwardness.
"I'm.... Sorry, Alyssa. It's just that... a baby scares me. Especially at this age. I didn't mean to make it seem like I hate you."
Mad at me? Mad at me or himself? I honestly don't care what he says, because he's just so ignorant. I don't even know what to say exactly on how I feel.
He wrapped his arms around me and planted his chin on my shoulder.
"I'm sorry. I love you." He planted small kisses on my cheek and tickled my sides. My cheeks heated up as I giggled uncontrollably.
"You're so annoying, you know that?" I rolled my eyes at his stupidity. I'm not sure if it was his stupidity or his ignorance.
