Overload 13-Another Challenge
My father loomed over me as if trying to keep his next words private, “let me tell you, when we no longer have company I am going to beat the living shit out of you!” He yelled and everyone in the room could obviously hear. He went back to face Mr. Sanchez and his daughter.
“Maya, please explain to your boyfriend why we are here.” It was then that I realized school wasn’t even out yet so she must have stayed home for the day.
“Max,” I braced myself for what she would say next as I thought that I already knew. “Max, I-I’m pregnant.” She seemed on the verge of tears which from the look of her red eyes she had done a lot today. It felt like I had just been slapped in the face.
“Maximum, what do you have to say for yourself?”
“I-I don’t know what to say.” I stammered.
“Well then you better think of something boy, before I knock your teeth out.” My father took a threatening step closer to me.
“How long?” I asked in Maya’s direction.
“Almost three months,”
“Oh so, from around Valentines’ day?”
“Do you mean to suggest that you and my daughter have had sex on more than one occasion?” Her father also took a threatening step forward. Did I mean to suggest that? No. Had I? Yes.
“Well sir, I didn’t mean to say it like that. But yes I suppose that is what it suggested.” I would not have been surprised if he had punched me but he restrained himself from doing so.
“Well what do you plan to do about this?”
“W-well, I don’t know. Most of that depends on what Maya wants. If she would like to keep the baby then I would too. I would help her to raise it every step of the way. If not then I will help her during the pregnancy and then we can give it up for adoption, if that is what she wants.”
“I want to keep it,” She barely whispered.
“Do you plan to marry my daughter?” Kale, Maya, and I all coughed uncomfortably at the same time. What do I say? I mean if things don’t work out with Kale, then yeah I love Maya. But if things do work out then I will want to be with Kale. I have no idea how to answer that.
“Well I suppose that depends where we are both at, at that point in life.” Was the only answer that I could give him.
“Well, we will be going. Maya and her mother have some talking to do. We will stay in touch,” and with that they both left. Maya gave me a shy apologetic smile as she left.
“Kale, would you please give us a minute?” My father ordered more than asked and a reluctant Kale climbed the stairs. “Young man, I am very disappointed in you.”
“How can you be?”
“Excuse me?”
“How can you be disappointed in someone that you never had any expectations of?” To that he had no witty comeback so naturally he just avoided it.
“How did this happen?”
“Even you know how that happens.” The sarcasm was thick in my voice.
“Don’t talk back I can’t believe that you had sex before marriage!”
“Your perfect son screwed his boyfriend all day everyday!” I over exaggerated but it hadn’t been a secret to Dad that they were sleeping together. “But did you care? No. Did you know? Hell yeah! So why is it suddenly not okay for me?”
“Because a guy can’t get pregnant!” He yelled.
“So if I’m gay then it is okay? Well in that case Kale is my gay lover and I’m going to go fuck him!” I yelled climbing the stairs.
“Don’t joke about things like that!” My dad yelled after me. I slammed my door.
I walked over to my bed and a pair of arms snaked around my waist. Kale’s lips pressed against the back of my neck. And I closed my eyes. “You know that I was joking when I said that to my dad right?” I whispered not sure if he had even heard, but he kept kissing me from behind and I really didn’t even attempt to stop him…yet…anyway. He pushed his hands up the back of my shirt. Exploring my back, again I couldn’t help but feel like the girl in the relationship. I was the confident quarterback, I had muscle mass on him, heck I was even a month older than him! He was the shy football player and there shouldn’t even be a contest for dominance here. “Stop.” I whispered and he froze behind me.
I turned around to face him, “why do you treat me like a girl?” I asked him.
“I have never treated you like a girl Max.” He was kind of annoying me actually.
“Yeah, with all of this dominance shit you do.”
“Look Max, I’ve been with a few girls before and it’s never been like this.” Wait, he’s been with girls?
“You mean you haven’t always been gay?” I asked.
“No, I’ve always been gay I just used to try to pretend that I wasn’t.”
“By sleeping with girls?” I raised my eyebrows at him.
“Well yeah, I thought that it would make me straight. But that was all about thirst and lust, I have never been like this with a girl and I never could be because I have never felt anything for a girl. I feel something for you Max. You.” His words still made me feel girly but my heart fluttered all the same and I pressed my lips against his urgently. Within a matter of seconds we were both shirtless and lying on my bed Kale hovering over me. His lips skillfully clashed with mine and I had never felt this…perfect…
My lips went to his neck and he moaned which just turned me on even more. “Max?” He said my name as a question and I knew what he was asking. I didn’t respond but instead I pressed my lips against his as he helped me out of my pants and then his, so that we were both in only our boxers. Maybe I would stop him, maybe I wouldn’t. Eh, it could go either way.
Can you be in love with two people at the same time? I don’t know, I love Maya that’s for sure. But if I didn’t at least have the potential to love Kale then what am I doing here? Ugh, life is confusing. It would be so easy to just be straight and go back to Maya. We could raise our baby, get married, and be the high school sweethearts that everyone roots for in the movies. Or I could go with Kale and be that gay football player that people rag on and insult. That one that the assholes beat up and steal lunch money from, the one that the boys from the football team call a faggot and want off of the team, it would be harder. Going with Maya would definitely be easier, but who ever said that I wanted easy? Easy might just be too boring for Maximum Lewis…. My entire life has been difficult, so what’s one more challenge?
There was a lot going on right now. And one thing is for sure that if Kale weren’t here it would be too much…
So....how does a baby fit into this mess? Does Max stop Kale? Any ideas for who I should cast as Maya or Trent? Comment. Vote.
