Boy Meets Girl, Girl Loves Boy

"Hey, Bro. What'd you need? I know it took a bit to get here but both girls took T's leaving kinda hard."
"It's fine. What I have to say isn't that big of a deal. I just wanted to tell you that I slept with someone while you were gone."
"What? That's a huge deal! You haven't been with anyone since..."
"It's know."
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah. I mean I really like this one. I think even more than... the point is I think I've moved on. I mean she will always have a place in my heart but I have room for other people too."
"That's great. I'm so proud of you. Let's go watch a movie."
"Alright."

"You're pregnant? You're not even twenty! Is this a good thing or bad? Are you sure? Who's is it? Please don't tell me it was a one night stand. Have you been to the doctor? When did you find out? What-"
"Okay calm down. One question at a time. It wasn't a hookup. I found out the day you got back. I-"
"Wait!"
"What?"
"You've know for like 10 days and didn't tell me?"
"I needed time to think and y I u were busy. Now I'm gonna answer all your questions. I can't tell you who's it is yet. Keyword 'yet'. Yes I'm very sure and have seen a doctor. I think it's a good thing. I'm not sure yet though. I'm still figuring things out. I'm not sure how Dad will take it. Especially since Mom isn't there to soften the blow. Will you be there when I tell him?"
"Of course! Come here! No matter what I will be here for you. You just give me whatever info you want to until your ready to give me more. I can wait. Just call me whenever you need me."
"Thank you. I was hoping you'd have a good reaction. I'm not sure about everyone else's though. Honestly... I'm scared."
"Don't be. I'm here to chase the fear away. Hey. Look me in the eyes. I. Love. You. Whatever decisions you make I will support. Just be responsible for yourself, your baby, and your actions."
"I will. I promise."
"Good. Now let's get down from here. It's cold and really rickety."
"I agree!"

S: Hey Ry I can't leave because I have lots of work to do. I'm almost done with everything for junior year. You wanna come over here or wanna meet tomorrow or something?
R: in almost done too! I'll just see what's goin on tomorrow. Good night. I love you
S: love you, too. Talk to you tomorrow.

"Lights out."
"Yes ma'am. I'm just finishing this text and this section then I'm turning it off."
"Okay. See you in the morning."

"Mom, Breakfast!"
"You made breakfast? Since when do you get up super early to make breakfast?"
"Well I do it everyday I'm at Ry's and I did it everyday in North Carolina. I like getting up with a purpose. I also cleaned and organized the kitchen. No one else can cook here except you. None of the kids. Plus if they do dishes they need to be overseen until they put things away 100%. Is that alright?"
"Totally! We just need to do that to every part of the house!"
"Great. Mom, I need to spend the day with Gib. Is that alright? She really needs me."
"Well we don't have anything planned but I still with you would have asked instead of just told me about it. What's going on with Gab?"
"Just some stuff. She will explain later in one way or another. Thanks after I clean up from making breakfast I am headed out to her house."
"Alright. Call if you need anything."
"You too."

"Hey. Look at me. You are okay. You can do this. I'm gonna get the boys from school you are gonna hang out with your dad for those 20 or so minutes then we are both gonna be there when you tell them. Okay?"
"Yeah. I can do this. I mean I hope and pray that I can do this. You know I didn't think that I would be like a month away from being 20 and be pregnant. I thought it'd be a bit down the road."
"I know. Life throws things at us that we don't expect or necessarily want but we just have to do the right things and pray and trust in God that he will help us through everything."
"I know. I know. I think I'm ready."
"Okay. I'm going to say hi then go get the boys."
