Chapter 35

Michael's POV

I wake up and re read the text she sent me last night and the multiple texts I've sent this morning with no reply. I decide to text her once more.

*Me: Are you alright? Xxx*

She doesn't reply for 10 minutes and I get worried.

*Danni: we need to talk*

Oh my god. That's never a good thing when a woman says 'we need to talk'. I'm starting to fret. The phone rings and I pick it up on the first ring.

"Danni!" I shout down the phone. All I can hear is crying.

"I need to talk to you, come here please" she cries before hanging up the phone.

The 2 hours to Danni's house is hell, her crying voice reminiscing through my mind the whole way. My heart is pounding at 100mph and my head is spinning. I can't concentrate. I need to stop the car before I kill myself. But I can't. I need to get to her.

***

After a painful 2 hours I arrive outside her house. I stare at the pathway. This is the last moment I have before we break up, I need to prepare myself. No. Nothing I do will prepare me for a break up. I take a deep breath and walk up the path and knock on the door. I take another breath before she opens the door. She is stood there completely make-upless and tearstained cheeks.

I stare at her.

"What the fuck? What's the matter?" I say and hug her so right and not give her a chance to answer. I stroke her hair and think about the possibilities of what I could've done.

"Come in" she chokes. I walk inside and her mum is sat in the living room. "Sit down, mum can you give us some privacy please?" She says to her mum and her mum walks out the room after patting her on the back.

"Michael, I-" she starts

"- whatever it is, we can get through this. I love you more than anything. You are the most important thing to me. You are my angel, my life, my girlfriend and my best friend. I can't go on without you. I don't know what I would do without you. Please don't break up with me I-" I can't carry on. I choke on my tears before they come streaming out my eyes.

"Michael, I'm not breaking up with you, I love you" she says, in a better state than me. She walks and stands in between my legs.

"What is it then?" I ask confused.

"Michael, I um, I think I'm pregnant"

My heart drops. What the fuck? How the fuck? I can't manage to get any words out. My lips move but nothing comes out. We only did it once. I stare into mid air taking in what she just revealed. Out of all the possibilities I thought she would say, this wasn't on the list.

"What the fuck? Ho- Shit! I didn't use a condom on the beach! It's all my fucking fault!" I stand up from my seat and grab my hair. How could I do this to her? to her body?

"I'm not sure yet, I haven't done a test, I'm just late" she says trying to make it better

"I can't have a baby!" I whisper yell. About to say something else I am interrupted by the door slamming.

"YOU!" A man walks towards me and grabs me by the collar "you fucking knocked up my daughter. She's 18!" the man, I'm guessing is her dad yells in my face

"Dad no! I love him!" Danni yells through her tears.

"He's made you pregnant! that's all boys like him want! to knock you up then leave you to cope with it on your own! I don't want you seeing him anymore" he turns to Danni and yells. My heart drops at the mention I us not seeing each other.

"Dad no!" Danni cries.

"I love her!" I yell at him. Big mistake. He shoves me out of the door and closes it in my face.

"You aren't seeing that boy anymore Danni, he's no good for you!" I hear him shout to Danni on the other side of the door. I slide my back down the door and put my hands through my hair and break down on the spot. How could I let this happen?
