Fate

Chapter 7

The doorbell rings 15 minutes later and the girls are well prepared. Luna opens the door to see the two males standing there. "Oh...come in" she says, looking at the floor. The two boys cautiously walk into the small apartment. "Where is Brook, she seemed really upset and needed to see me" Luke asks seriously whereas Ryder stands awkwardly looking at anything other than the blonde female, making her huff in annoyance. "She's fine, she is sitting in the living room" As soon as the words tumble from her mouth, the brunette male brushes past her and into the apartment, leaving the two blondes. "Well are you going to come in or are you going to just stand there looking stupid?" She asks rolling her eyes at the male. "Whatever shortass" he sneers looking down at her. "You know what? I don't have time to deal with you right now, why are you even here?" she asks him. He shrugs looking into her blue eyes. "I heard Brooklyn was in trouble, thought I'd come find out what's wrong" he says. "Fine, just come in and shut up" she says walking away from him.

The dark haired male runs into the living room to see the brunette sitting on the couch, running her hands through her hair. "Brook, what's happened? You seemed so upset on the phone" he says looking at the girl worriedly. The girl looks up at the male, tears running down her face. The male rushes towards her, embracing her in his arms. "Hey, hey it's okay don't cry" he says soothingly. "I-we-uh we need to talk about something" she says pulling away from his grip. The two blondes walk into the room, sitting down across from the couple. "It's okay, don't worry" Luna says, showing Brooklyn a comforting look, making the brunette smile at her, wiping away her tears. "Okay, so do you remember the night that we were at the bar and things happened?" Brooklyn says, shyly looking at Luke. "Oh that, yeah I remember that" he says, smirking while leaning back, his arm resting over the back of the couch. "I-I-I" she stutters.

The male reaches over and holds her hand. "Whatever it is, we'll all work it out, it'll be fine" he says reassuring the brunette. "I-I want you to know that I really like you-" He cuts off the brunette female. "I like you as well-I" She hushes him, once again looking at her best friend for a glimpse of hope. The blonde grins at her with a thumbs-up, making her giggle slightly at her friend's silly reaction. "I really like you, but I think this might change your mind about me, I totally understand that but I need to tell you this" She pauses to take a deep breath. "I'mpregnant" she mumbles underneath her breath. "Babe, I couldn't hear that, you need to speak up" he says, worryingly looking over to Luna concerned who smiles softly, her eyes showing clear concern. "I'm pregnant" Brooklyn blurts out, making the two males turn to her shocked.

"You're what?!" Luke exclaims. The brunette just shrinks down under his stare. "I-Is it mine" he asks looking at the female. "I mean yes I haven't been with anyone besides you, you know that" she says, glancing up at him with tears in her eyes once again. "I-I uh" he stutters before standing up and walking out of the front door. The brunette breaks down crying while watching him walking out of the front door. The blonde female rushes over to her best friend's side hugging her, leaving the blonde male unsure of his next move, to stay with the two females or to follow his brother and find out what the hell he is thinking. He clears his throat "I'm Uh, I'm going to go see what is up with him, I'll get in contact later" Luke says, not making any room for replies, walking away out of the apartment, closing the front door. "I knew it, I knew it was all going to go wrong, I knew that he was going to hate me" She wails, clutching onto her friend's shirt. "Hey, hey, it's okay I promise, I'm here, don't worry, everything is going to be okay, I'm here sweetheart" she says hugging her friend as tight as she can. After around a half an hour, Brooklyn falls asleep wrapped in her best friend's arms.

The blonde female finally let's go of her friend, laying her down on the couch, she kisses her head and places a blanket over her, then proceeds to the kitchen to make a cup of tea. Sighing, the blonde gazes out of the window, letting her mind wander to her past and wondering how things are going to turn out for the teens. Hearing a rough knocking at the door, the blonde is startled to reality. She quickly walks over to the door as quietly as she can as to not wake up Brooklyn. Opening the door she gasps angrily and walks out and closes the door behind her. "You've got some damn nerve coming back here, after what you've done to her" She says looking at the dark haired male. "I know I'm sorry, I didn't know what else to do, I panicked, I went to clear my head, and I also got her these" He says pulling a teddy and a bouquet of roses from behind his back. "Is she home, I really need to talk to her" He says, looking as though he has been crying, his hair a mess. "You know what? No, we need to sit down and talk for a bit" she says motioning for the stairs, the two teens walk up to the roof and sit on the small metal bench.

The blonde sighs and takes a long look at the male. "What are you thinking? Do you know how torn she was when you left, she was heartbroken" Luna says seriously, looking upset. "Wrapped up in my own thoughts about being a father I guess. I was doubting myself, what if I don't make a good dad, I don't want to end up like my own man, he was a scumbag who abused me, my brother and my mother, I never want to end up like that" he says exasperated, running his hand over his face. "You have the power to change that, no one else. Look I don't know if Brooklyn has told you her whole story but, she's been through a lot, she is so strong, but the mere thought of losing you, had her in tears, so I swear to god, if you ever hurt her like that again, I will come after you with my baseball bat and that is a promise, I love her so much, she is like a sister to me, I never want to see her that hurt again" She says, looking on the verge of tears.

"I don't know what you've both been through although I know that it wasn't easy, I don't want to hurt her, I never want to hurt her, she is everything to me, I'm going to tell you something that even she does not know...I had followed her around for a few months before we actually bumped into each other at the bar" he says, awkwardly scratching the back of his neck. "I knew it, you're a stalker!" She exclaims, only for him to place his hand over her mouth. "No, no, stalking is a really harsh word, I'd say, observing, I wanted to approach her but didn't have the balls to" he says, bringing out his cigarettes and lighting one. "Want one?" he asks the blonde who agrees and takes one from him. "You, Mr bad boy tries to intimidate everyone, got scared of approaching a girl?" she asks sceptically. "I mean, it's just, she's perfect, I never want to lose her and I finally gained the courage when I realised that another guy could just as easily take her away from me, and I'll be damned if that happened" he says, getting slightly angry and irritated. "She likes you, you know" The blonde stated bluntly looking out towards the sunset. "I love her, with all my heart, she is my everything and I really need to let her know that, I just didn't know how to" he says glancing at the blonde who is staring off to the distance. "I know" she sighs standing up and stomping out the now burned out cigarette. "I trust that you'll take care of her because you're like me" she says looking down at the male sitting on the bench.

"You better not hurt her, oh and you best start getting used to me, if you're going to be around her more often, especially because I'm going to be this little bundle of sunshine's aunt" she says, making the serious male grin at her choice of words. "Couldn't have picked a better aunt for them" he says standing up. "Come on in, I'll wake Brook up and make a cup of tea for the three of us while you two talk" she says, smiling softly at the male. "You know you're actually really soft and sweet, I don't know what Ryder means by cold and defensive" he says chuckling at the shorter female. "Hey don't push your luck, I'm just putting up with you for the happiness of my best friend, remember that" she huffs, walking back downstairs, the male in tow.
