I hated hospitals. Truly believe I've spent to much time in them. Romeo held my hand while we waited to the doctor.
"Well I figured out what causing the vomiting and nausea." The doctor said pausing. Me and Romeo just stared at him.
"Well say something." Romeo panicked.
"You Miss.Clark are pregnant."
"Pregnant? That's not possible."
"Well are you to sexually active?"
"Yes."
"Do you use protection?" I was shocked. Thinking back I don't remember the last time we used a condom. Romeo doesn't even believe in pulling out.
"I...I"
"Congratulations you two. Unless you want to discuss your options."
"There no option to discuss." Romeo answers for me.
"Well alright. I'll write you a prescription for prenatal medicine and schedule your next appointment."
"What's your name?" I asked.
"Doctor Jeremy Reed."
"And your gonna be my doctor?"
"No I'm an ER physician. If you want you can choose your doctor."
"Can you make it a woman?" Ro asked.
"Sure." The doctor nodded. I got up and walked into the waiting room. I'm pissed right now but I'm trying to stay calm.
"Okay your appointment is next week Wednesday and you can pick up the pills at your pharmacy in about 30 minutes." The nurse said.
Getting into the car there was an awkward silence. I think Romeo can feel the anger radiating off my body.
When we finally got home I slammed the doctor behind me.
"What the fuck is your problem?" He yelled.
"My problem?" I point to myself. "My problem is you!"
"What you talking about?"
"You had no right to speak for me in there. 'There is no other option' are you kidding me?!"
"You think imma let you kill my baby? Are you stupid?"
"That's it Romeo this isn't about you. I have dreams and goals. I don't wanna be fucking 17 and pregnant!"
"So what? ¿Has perdido la cabeza? Honestamente crees que te iba a dejar matar a mi heredero ... mi hijo." (You have lost your mind? You honestly believe I was going to let you kill my heir... my son). He said in Spanish like he always does we we get mad.
"Whatever Romeo. I do not want a baby." I said slowly.
"Entonces no me quieres porque si matas a mi hijo hemos terminado. Nunca podría amarte de nuevo" (Then you do not want me because if you kill my son we are over. I could never love you again). Whatever he said brought tears to his eyes.
"Romeo"I said stepping closer to him only for him to back up.
"Te daré el mundo, mi amor, mi corazón" he paused wiping his hands down his face "... Pero si matas a mi hijo, te mataré." (I will give you the world, my love, my heart...But if you kill my child I will kill you). With that he grabbed his car keys and left.
James POV
I heard banging on my apartment door. It's mad early for this shit. I thought to myself. Looking at the clock I see it's 6 at night. Damn my timing was off. The banging got harder and louder causing me to jump out the bed.
"Who and what the fuck don't you want!" I yell opening the doctor to see Romeo crying. I swear the only times I would see him crying is when something happens with Nova.
"Lo que está mal ¿Tu esposa se enojó contigo otra vez?" (What's wrong. Your wife mad at you again?) I laughed.
He shook his head. I opened the door wider letting him in. He takes a deep breath sitting on my couch.
"Nova está embarazada y quiere matar a mi hijo." (Nova is pregnant and wants to kill my son).
My face dropped. Nova pregnant? I don't know why. But it hurt when he said that.
"¿Ella quiere hacer qué? Probablemente la escuchaste mal." (She wants to do what?
You probably heard her wrong).
"No."
"That doesn't even sound like Nova"
"I know I man. We've talked about having a baby fo..."
I had to cut him off. "You talked about having a baby. She wants to finish school."
"Same thing." He waved his hands.
I shook my head. Sometimes he could be mad selfish. "It's not man. Look I love you like a brother. And I know how you are. Nova never said she wanted a baby. You just pushed it on her. Now you crying cause she expressed her feelings."
"Shut the fuck up!" He yelled getting in my face.
"This ain't what you want bro. Ain't my fault you tried to trap your girl. Stop playing bitch all the time." With that he punched me in my face. I ain't no pussy so I started punching back.
It was a good ten minutes before I heard the door open. Not paying attention Ro knocked me to the ground.
"Romeo stop!" It was Nova.
That voice had him freeze mid punch.
"So your gonna argue with me then fight your brother? You are pathetic."
"Yo I'm telling you to watch your fucking mouth bruh."
"Or what Romeo? You are not my father. When I you gonna learn you can not control me."
"I take care of you. Feed you. Buy you clothes. Pay for your school. I might as well be."
"You fail to realize I never asked you to. But that's what you want."
"What do I want Nova?!"
I knew this was an rarest does he call her by her name.
"You want people to feel they need you so they let you control their every move."
I decide to step in. "Guys maybe y'all just need some time apart to breathe."
"Your right James. Romeo and I need space. That's why we're done."
"What?"
"What?!" Romeo yelled.
"I can't do this anymore. The back and forth. Everything you to much. I'm done with you. This is the breaking point."
Nova turned around to leave and all I could think is what the fuck did I just do.

Romeo POV
She left me. Queen left me. How could I let her go.
