"Why? Why Zach?" I whisper yelled as I held a sleeping Jeff in my arms.
"I can't do this anymore Indigo" he replied, as he continued packing his bag.
"What? You can't be a father anymore? Are you kidding me?" I, again, whisper yelled at Zach while I laid Jeff in his crib.
"No Indigo, of course I can be a father, I just... I can't be with you anymore" he said, not being able to make eye contact with me.
"Why not?" I asked, as a tear slid down my cheek.
"Because I can't!" He yelled in frustration. I flinched, before the sound of Jeff's cry echoed the room. "I- I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-"
"Just get out!" I cut him off as I picked up a crying Jeff. "Shh baby it's alright" I whispered as I began to rock Jeff back to sleep.
"Indigo I-" Zach started before I cut him off again.
"Get out!" I said sternly. Zach sighed, looking down before leaving the house.
I laid Jeff back in his crib, as he fell back asleep. I walked over to the door, locking it, before sliding down, tears falling down my cheeks.

"Hey guys" I said as I got to Monty's backyard, where he was having a party. My parents were watching Jeff for the night because they wanted me to have a night out.
"How's baby?" Monty asked as I sat between him and Zach. Trust me, this was not the seat I would have chose, but there was nowhere else to sit.
"He's great" Zach and I answered at the same time.
I let out an awkward cough as I scratched the back of my neck.
"And how are you?" Monty asked looking down at me from the side.
"I'm okay" I answered with a slight shrug. Monty sighed, before changing the subject, knowing the awkward situation I was currently in. "And now I'm leaving. So give me a hug" I said, standing up.
Monty smiled before standing up, wrapping his arms around me. "I'll see you soon?" He asked softly and I nodded before walking into the crowded house.
"Ouch" I said as I ran into what felt like a wall, but when I looked up I realized it was Justin.
"Do you ever watch where you're walking?" He asked with a smirk.
