Kellin

I sat there kinda worried. Witch was kinda weird for me considering I didn't even know her. The nurse that brought Daniella to the exam room came back without her.

We all stood up and greeted him.

"Hi I'm Todd Anderson." He said.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Kellin. This is Gabe, Justin and Jessie." I said while shaking his hand.

"Daniella wants to see you before I diagnose her." Anderson replied.

"Is she okay?" I asked.

Anderson took a deep breath and let it out.

"From her face wounds it looks like she has been physically abused. I felt her stomach and I think there might be more bruises, and I felt something else."

I was scared out of my fucking mind.

"A tumor? Blood clot? What?" I asked.

Anderson nudged towards the doors leading to Daniella.

"Come with me."

I followed him down the long hallway and we stopped in front of her room.

The door opened and I saw Daniella face filled with terror.

"Daniella? You okay?" I asked grabbing her hand.

Her head bowed and her eyes watered.

"No," she began, "I know what it is. I know exactly what it is."

"What are you talking about?" Anderson cut in.

" You know exactly what I'm talking about. You think I'm pregnant don't you?!"

Both Anderson's and my mouth dropped at the same time and I saw his head nod.

"Yes I did, and with your permission I would like to preform an ultra sound."

"Sure, why not." She said kinda smart.

He brought in the equipment, and I saw the bruises all over her. When he turned on the machine we met the unborn baby.

It reminded me of Copeland. It's been months since I've seen one of these. And he or she was so small.

So beaut.....

"Can I keep this one?" Daniella asked interrupting my thoughts.

"What?" I asked.

"The baby. Can I keep this one?"

My mind and face became blank.

"Why couldn't you keep it?" I asked.

She sat up whipping off the jelly while Anderson returned the equipment to its spot. Her eyes became watery again.

"This isn't the first time I've fallen pregnant."

"What do you mean?"

"My boyfriend loves to have sex. It doesn't matter if I tell him no or not he'll do it anyway."

"Danie-" I began.

She continued anyway

"The first time I fell pregnant I had to abort it because he or she wasn't safe with me. My father is bipolar. He can't control his anger and I knew if he found out I was pregnant he would kill it. So I went ahead and terminated the pregnancy, and don't think I don't regret it. I just didn't have a choice. I just hope God understood my decision."

A tear escaped my eye.

"I've been through hell," she said. "and I don't want to go back. I don't know what to do."

"Don't worry, I won't leave you." I said.

We walked out together and met the others in the waiting area. They stood up when they saw us and met us across the room.

"What happen?" Gabe asked.

"Are you okay?" Jessie asked.

"What did nurse Anderson find?" Justin asked.

"Let's get on the bus first." I said.

We all walked on the bus and I made everyone sit in the couch.

"Daniella?" I began, "Do you want to tell them? You don't have to if you don't want to."

"No it's okay, I don't mind." she said.

"He examined me, I'm not okay, and I'm pregnant. she said answering the questions in order.

All three of their mouths dropped in disbelief that this happened to her.

"If it's okay I'm going to go to bed."

"Sure I'll be there to help you in a second." I replied.

"Guys she's been through a lot." I said.

"I think we know that." Jessie said.

"So how did this happen?" Justin asked.

"I have to get her to tell you later." I replied.

I headed to the back to help her get ready for bed. I knocked on the door.

"Daniella? may I come in?"

"Yeah."

I saw her sit on the left side edge of the bed and watch me. I walked to the dresser and grabbed sweatpants and an old Anthem shirt.

"Hear you can use this."

"Thanks." She replied. I turned to walk out but stopped in my tracks.

"Daniella, can I ask you something?" I said turning around.

She was already in the night clothes I picked out for her.

"Sure." She said sitting in the middle of the bed.

"When you said that you hope that God would understand your decision, why do you think he wouldn't?"

"At the time it seemed like the perfect solution to "save" it but, now that I'm pregnant again maybe that wasn't the only way."

"I with you I'm not for abortion and I can see you wanted it and you were ready to take responsibility for your boyfriends actions but, I see your point. And I know you won't do it this time. I believe God loves you and your baby and He's taking care of the first one right now." I said while sitting right beside her rubbing her back.

I whipped away her tears while she spoke.

"Thanks Kellin." She said.

I got up and headed to the door.

"Kellin?" She said.

I turned around again.

"Yeah?"

"Can you stay in here with me? If you don't mind of corse."

"I don't mind." I replied.

I crawled onto the bed and fell asleep.

Two days later we returned home and I introduced Daniella to the family.

"Daniella you are more than welcome to live here." Katelynn said.

"Thank you so very much." Daniella said hugging Katelynn.

We all went inside the house.
