"Alex?" Ashley asked me.
It was 1:37 AM. I was unable to sleep and so was Ashley, for the results from the doctor were positive. We were having a baby. Rodney's baby.
Ashley's mother had come home scared for her daughter when she had received my voice message, to find that her daughter was way beyond ok-in fact she was scarred, hurt, and worried. She immediately rushed us to the doctor's office after Ashley had told her what happened, for the test. They used a bunch of different machines and stuff to run different tests-trying to find out if she was in fact pregnant. Then they did some other tests to see if she had gotten any sort of weird diseases from Rodney, but the really embarrassing part was that the doctors and nurses working on Ashley kept asking me questions and looking at me funny- like I was the one who got her pregnant!
"Yes Ashley?" I replied. Her voice trembling.
"I'm so, so scared. What are we gonna do?" Tears slipped from her face, shining in the dark. She had asked me this question a bazillion times already. Her words from what had happened to her still horrified me.
I shuddered, pushing the thought away and told her what we were going to do for the millionth time.
"Ashley," I sighed. "Once you've made the decision whether or not you're going to keep the baby, we'll prepare a room or something if you decide to keep him or her then you'll give birth and everything will go as planned. You won't have to go to school once it's obvious that you're pregnant, I'll bring the homework for you, the whole school will think that you have cancer or something and then once you give birth and your belly slims back down, everything will go back to normal, you will go to school, and whether or not you keep the baby, we'll be parents and not tell Rodney about the baby."
Ashley burst into a quiet stream of tears. I wish I could turned back the clock and not get out of bed early that morning, so that I wouldn't have left her that day. So that she wouldn't be in so much pain. I felt a tear fall down my cheek, then another and another. Before I knew it I was crying harder than Ashley was.
I wanted justice done for Ashley. My own brother? How could he? I knew he despised me, but he had just destroyed our lives. How could I ever forgive him now.
Then I was asleep. Exhausted from being so upset and worried. But the sleepless nightmares were no better. All I dreamt about was what Ashley had told me about how Rodney raped her...
Omg I know this chapter is probably the shortest chapter you've ever read I your entire life! I'm SOOO sorry! (I'm just saying that cuz idk what else to say...)
Are things moving to fast? I feel like when you read the next last chapters that you'll think this is all moving really fast....hmmm..any constructive criticism for my story? I could really use it...(yes, that right. This story is already coming to an end..)
Anyway, love you!! 💗😄
