Six Months Later...

Light was shining through the window on the far side of the room. You blinked your eyes and pulled the cover up over your head as memories of the day before came rushing back. Josh had gotten upset about something, you retaliated, the two of you fought, and you went to Tyler's. It was the same endless loop that the two of you seemed to be stuck in.

You pushed the fight to the back of your mind and rolled out of bed. Your sweatshirt was still on the ground from where you had thrown it yesterday. It was one that Tyler had bought for you when your bump had just started to get too big for your normal clothes. Now it was one of the few things that still fit you.

"Good morning," Tyler said as you walked into the living room. He was sitting on the couch eating a piece of toast.

"Morning," you grumbled as you shuffled into the kitchen.

Tyler watched as you made yourself some cereal and poured a cup of coffee from the pot that he had made earlier that morning.

"How are you feeling?" he asked as you took a seat in the armchair.

"Great," you smiled sarcastically.

"Have you talked to him at all since last night?"

You shook your head and took a sip of coffee, "Why should I? He was the one that started the fight." Tyler tilted his head to the side, his mouth turning down slightly. "We have an appointment for the baby today, we'll talk it out then."

"What happened between you two, anyway?"

You sighed and took another bite of cereal, "I asked him if he would run to the store for me because I was having another weird pregnancy craving and he accused me of being lazy. We fought for awhile and then I started crying because of my crazy hormones and it came back to the whole debate of whose fault the pregnancy is."

"You guys know it takes two people to get pregnant, right?"

"I know," you snapped. "I just don't want to let him win. Trust me, Ty, I'm getting just as tired of the arguing as you are."

Tyler didn't make a comment, just leaned back and took a long sip of his coffee. You had heard his opinion of your relationship with Josh countless times by now.

"I just wish things could work out between us. Things were fine before the pregnancy."

"You also didn't have to agree on anything other than when to have sex."

"We made other decisions together!"

"Name two."

"Well we decided what groceries to buy and...um..."

"Exactly my point, Y/N."

Your phone buzzed on the chair next to you. A quick glance at the screen revealed that it was Josh texting you, meaning that it couldn't be ignored.

"What's that?" Tyler asked around a mouthful of toast.

"Josh," you grumbled, picking up your phone with your free hand.

We need to talk. Will you come home?

"What does he want?"

Give me fifteen minutes.

"To talk."

You stuffed another spoonful of cereal into your mouth.

"Are you going to?"
