Forbidden | A Jemi Love Story

Twelve

Joe went to follow Nick as well and Demi raised her eyebrow at him grabbing his hand forcing him to stay behind.

"Where are you going?" Demi questioned kind of confused.

"Nick must be freaking out right now!" Joe exclaimed yanking his hand back and rushing out into the kitchen. Demi couldn't help but let out a bit of a laugh. She had never really seen his panicking side before but she'll admit, she was panicking a bit about the whole situation. She followed them but they were just stood there not doing anything.

"What are we gonna do?" Joe questioned looking between them both.

"What do you mean? This is all on you guys, it's your baby not mine. I was just pretending to date Demi so you could go out. We didn't have invisible sex and she has my invisible baby in here." Nick urged.

"Nick Demi is a minor, I could get arrested if anyone were to find out!" Joe exclaimed.

"You bet my parents will press charges if they find out." Demi mumbled and Nick sighed slightly.

"So I'm going to have to pretend to be a dad to your baby for it's whole life, just because his or her's real dad was dad was three years older than it's mom?" Nick questioned.

"Not for it's whole life. As soon as I'm eighteen, I can choose what I want to do, my parents can't do anything like that then." Demi answered but she was kind of relieved when she felt Joe's arm wrap around her. It meant he was going to be supportive.

"Two years is a long time though, that's hard on me but also hard on Joe, if he wants to be a dad, he won't be able to be a proper dad... the baby would have to call me daddy and what are we gonna tell them when they're older. That magically I'm not his or her's uncle and who they thought was their uncle is now their daddy?"

"Please Nick, can you just do this for a little bit until we can figure out what else we want to do?" Joe begged slightly.

"Are you sure you want to have the baby?" Nick questioned looking between them both.

"I want my baby, I can't abort it and I don't want to give it away," Demi stated looking up at Joe. "Is that okay?" Demi smiled as Joe kissed her forehead gently.

"Of course, I don't think I could see you go through with an abortion and I don't think I'd be able to hand the baby over when the time came either." Joe admitted.

"Okay but you have to pay for my medical bills when Demi's dad beats me up." Nick grumbled.

"He won't beat you up." Demi assured him.

"It won't be for very long, you won't have to be a dad when the time comes for the baby arriving," Joe assured him again. "Thanks bro, this means a lot."

"Well I don't have much of a choice, I don't want you to go to jail or anything." Nick replied and Demi couldn't help but smile as the two brothers shared a hug. She could see how close they were.

Joe and Demi soon wandered up to Joe's room to spend some time together. They were just laid on the bed Demi's head on his chest and he had his arm around her as he played with her fingers on her other hand. He knew he was falling for her, something he had never experienced before with a girl, he was kind of scared of it but he would never push her away. He knew he was starting to love her and now she was carrying a baby, their baby, something they had created together. He just started to fall for her more.

"You really want the baby?" Demi questioned.

"Yeah, sure, it's not ideal with you still being at school and me being at college but we'll work through it." Joe answered kissing the side of her head and Demi smiled.

"I just don't know how to tell my parents the truth."

"We'll have to at some point, I'm not letting the baby call anyone but me daddy." Joe stated.

"I know and we'll work something out for that too." Joe sighed.

"I'm gonna go for this internship, I don't wanna go back to college and miss the whole pregnancy, I just hope I get it."

"All you can do is try," Demi praised moving so she was laid on her side, it meant they could see one another better. "But you'll get it, I know you will."

"You have to say that, you're my girl." He answered and she laughed.

"It's gonna be so hard, pretending I'm having a baby with Nick." Demi admitted.

"Hopefully it won't be for long, it's gonna be just as hard for me to watch," Joe confessed. "But we're having a baby together."

"Yeah we are," Demi grinned. "But I'm kind of nervous about it all, everyone at school is going to know, I'm gonna be giving birth just before all my exams and stuff. It's gonna be one of the hardest years of my life."

"I'll help you through it, I'll sit with you and study if I have to. We're gonna get you graduated so our little boy or girl can cheer his/hers mommy on at graduation." Joe grinned this time and Demi smiled.

"Thanks Joe, it means a lot that you're going to be here for us both." Demi mumbled slightly laying her head on his chest again and Joe just embraced her more.

"I''m not going anywhere." Joe spoke in a slight whisper.
