Lust and Lies

Letter 3

Noah's pov

Fuck. This was my fault. I got her pregnant. I wasn't ready to be a dad. But I want going to let her get an abortion like Courtney.

"Hello?" She asked waving her hand
"Oh yeah. You're pregnant. Am I supposed to be happy or sad."
"I don't know I'm just confused." She said looking down at her stomach. For a second she smiled.
"We have a baby."
"Yeah we do." I said laughing.
"So what do we do?" She asked
"We could make it work somehow. Maybe. I think you should have it, I mean unless you think otherwise."
"No I want to have it, I think. I was planning on college and stuff though."
"You can still do that just differently."
"I'm two weeks." She said looking over at my dad. I watched as she got up and sat next to him.

She grabbed his hand and was silent for a few minutes.

"I'm sorry if your disappointed. This wasn't meant to happen. I think we decided to have this baby so that means you have to be here to see him or her. Right? So you can see them play and smile up at you. So how bout you fight through this for me." By this time I was crying again and so was Kristen.

She came back over and laid in my arms. We were gonna be parents. We soon drifted off to sleep.

Kurtis' pov

I opened my eyes when I heard the sound of snorting from the side of the room. I knew I would be gone before she had the baby. It made me sad. I got out another paper and started writing.

Dear Noah,

I overheard what Kristen had to say to you. Shocking news. She's pregnant. I know you probably used protection and something went wrong. It's not your fault. It kind of adds up whose fault it is, I don't know maybe your sisters? I know all about that but it's fine. That's a little gross by the way. You were the best son I could've asked for. I love you a lot. One of my favorite memories with you was when we were bowling together and your finger got ran over by the ball. It didn't surprise me at all, you were a dumb kid. You didn't cry even though you wanted to. It showed me you had strength. I want you to have that strength when you can no longer see me anymore. I need you to protect your mother, who knows what will happen next. Attached is some files for you and Kristen. Your mom and I set aside some money for her as well. It's for her college. I know she wants to be an interior designer so that it enough for schooling and to start her own business if she wanted too. If you still decide to go to college you have money as well, there is extra and I expect you use it for this child of yours. I love you so much. Be nice to your sister when she gets married. It's okay to take my place. I know you'll be hesitant but she needs this. Make wise choices. Protect your family, step up to be a man. Oh and tell that baby of yours about me and how great I am, an of course how much I love him or her. Love you bud.

Sincerely, dad
