Good Girl, Bad Boys

Chapter 9: Reverse the curse

I almost can't believe him, but he was being completely serious."T-thank you Ronnie...i'll text you." When I get in the car, Billie asks if I'm okay. "Yeah, he actually wants to take me to the clinic to get the abortion." "You want an abortion?" "Well, I guess it's the easier solution..." "Easier?" I shake my head. "Billie, you wouldn't understand." "You're right I wouldn't. But that's murder...whatever it's your body, your choice." "Yeah, it is.." When we get back to the house Tré and Mike welcome me, I can't really look at Mike. It's too awkward. "So, Billie tells me your pregnant!" Tré says. "Yeah, not for too much longer though." "Oh." I say that I'm not feeling well and go upstairs to lay down just to get away from them. I look up the number of the clinic and make an appointment for tomorrow. I text Ronnie and he says he can't make it because of band practice. Whatever. He didn't care, I don't know why I thought for one second that he did. Why would he? When Billie comes to bed I ask him to go with me. "Of course I will." At least he'll be there, but he shouldn't have to be, Ronnie should...why can't he just...CARE! Is it too much to ask? In the morning Billie and I drive to the clinic and wait for what seems like forever in the waiting room. When they call me in I ask Billie to come with me.He follows me back to the doctors room. I change into a surgical gowned and hop up onto the examination table. They put a sheet over me hiding my lower half from me and Billie. I thought they would knock me out but I stayed awake and they gave me a sedative that would calm me down and dull the pain. I was nervous my hands were shaking like crazy. When the doctor said that they were gonna start Billie held his hand out to me and I took it. "I'm right here." He says. I squeeze his hand "I know you are." "Ill always be here." I start to tear up and then pull my self back together.
