"Brooklyn, all of my family are here! We can't just decide to hop on a plane and move over to London! Felix won't be growing up around his family then!" I yelled, frustrated with my boyfriend. This must've been our 5th argument in the last 3 days. We just can't seem to stop ourselves. Brooklyn is so eager to move to London with Felix and I, but I'd rather stay in LA, where my family is.

"But what about my family Luna?! It isn't fair that they don't get to see Felix enough!" Brooklyn replied from the other side of our apartment. We had decided we needed more privacy then staying with my parents, so getting a temporary apartment seemed like the only option until we had a final answer on where in this world we were going to live.

"They can come visit whenever they like!" I tried to reason, holding my head as it hurt from the all the shouting going on. It was lucky Mum and Dad were willing to look after Felix for the afternoon, otherwise he'd be crying badly. Brooklyn had now entered the lounge, so we could fully see each other.

We didn't mean to fight like this all the time, it was just that both of us had different ideas about where we wanted to live.

"No they can't, not when Harper and the boys still have school!" Brooklyn was right on this one, but what were we supposed to do? Neither of us was going to give up on being near our family. It just felt as if we'd reached our end.

"Maybe this isn't working." I said calmly and honestly. "We can't keep doing this." Sighing after I said this, Brooklyn had stayed quiet for a few moments.

"Look, we don't even need to be by our families to raise Felix. We're his parents, Luna. Sure, I want to live in London to be near my family, but I think it would be better for us too. It means that we're also closer to our friends, but above all, it means we'll be able to get to raise our kids in a city that's beautiful and welcoming." Again, Brooklyn was right, but I couldn't shake my want to stay in LA. Its where I've been all of my life.

"I wish it was as simple as that." I paused, scared to say what I had been thinking for a while. I had to be honest though, even if it meant things turning even more sour for us. "I can't help but thinking we're too young for this. I mean we're both 17! Raising a child at this age is hard work! Plus, moving to a whole different country is scary. Sometimes I wonder if we should have even kept Felix. I love him with all my heart, but we can't be doing this! Arguing constantly isn't good for him,or us. I think we need a break."

I could tell those words stung my boyfriend, but what else was I supposed to say? We just weren't ready enough to become the parents Felix needed.

"I-" Brooklyn stopped himself, tears falling down his face. In had only just realised that I was crying, too.

"Luna, we are parents, whether we like it or not, which I thought we did, but clearly not." Brooklyn croaked, before walking away and slamming the door behind him. I was left alone to think about things.

-----------------

Night time had approached, and Brooklyn was still not back. I had managed to settle our month old kid down, but it was harder than usual. Maybe he could tell something was wrong?

I slipped myself in between the bed and the covers, trying my best to get comfortable, but it just didn't work. I was too worried about Brooklyn. I felt a sense of unease within me, as if something had happened. I knew we shouldn't have fought. I mean Brooklyn was right on most things. Maybe London would be good for us. I really regretted what I had said now.

I knew I was too worried to actually get some sleep. So I called Brooklyn multiple times, leaving a ton of voice messages. He never replied to any of them. I didn't really know what else to do, so I sat in the lounge, thinking about all of the possible situations that could have gone on.

All I knew was that I needed my boyfriend back.
