I had to kneel down from the pain I was having in my abdomen. The cramps got so bad at that moment, I thought I was about to die. 

I hold onto everything that was in the living room, hoping it would go away, hoping I wouldn't need a hospital, hoping that everything would turn out good. Minutes passed, feeling like they've been hours, until I heard the front door open, fast steps getting louder and louder. ''Zoey, are you okay? What happened?!'', it was Robert. it seemed as if the voice was slowly fading, getting quiet although he was right beside me, his arm wrapping around my shoulder to help me stand up, but I couldn't. the pain was pulling me down, my breathing started to get heavy, all seemed as if it was some kind of horror game. 

I looked down, my eyes widening as I saw what was under me. 

Blood. 

''No, no, no, robert, call someone, please, someone, please..no, no'', was all I managed to get out before everything went black. 

 -------- Roberts P.O.V (excuse me if it's not how you expected it but it's hard) ------

The least thing I could do for her now is hope, hope for me and her that everything would turn out good. She was brought into the hospital 2 hours ago and I was sitting in this white room that just made me more nervous than I was. It was silent, the only thing I could hear is the quiet voices of the doctors talking. 

I wish I would know what they're talking about. I was sitting against the wall, head in my hands, trying to keep calm. Whatever would happen now, I won't leave her out of sight anymore, no, that was it. 

I don't know what happened when Emma was there, but that was the last time she was alone with her. Suddenly one of the Nurses interrupted my thoughts with her small cough, her small figure standing in the hallway, holding a folder with what looked like Zoey's results. ''Are you..Mr.. Downey? Boyfriend of Zoey Greene?'', she asked, holding the folder to the side. ''Yes'', she looked at me again, her face showing an unreadable expression. I hoped the nurse would look happy, atleast smile, say something positive about the situation, but instead she just breathed out, looking down again. ''Can you come with me please? She wants to see you'', 

I furrowed my brows and stood up, following her into the hallway to the door of Zoey. the nurse opened the door rather slow and depressing as she stood there, still avoiding my gaze. 

I saw Zoey lying on her side, looking out the window, her face as pale as the white floor in the room. I tried to be quiet, hoping she wouldn't be scared from me suddenly popping out.She looked at me, then back at the floor, as if she was hiding something. 

''How are you?'', I asked her, sitting down on the chair next to her bed. She breathed out slowly before she opened her mouth to talk, ''Fine'', I smiled as I stroked her cheek but she didn't respond, instead she just pushed it away, making me furrow brows. ''Is the baby okay?'', she breathed out again, closing her eyes ''It is...but..'', ''but what?'', 

''If...I waited any longer...I...we...I almost lost it'', I plumped down back in the chair, looking at the ceiling. For gods sake, whoever brought her into this situation, the person will pay. 

''It's okay now..I'll look after you. How did that happen?'', 

and so she told me everything, everything what happened that night.

----- NEXT DAY AT SCHOOL -----

I slammed the door open to my office, making Steve furrow his brows. ''Midlife crisis?'', he asked as he leaned against the table, taking small sips from his coffee. I put the books on the table, holding onto the chair like some kind of chainsaw. ''Just students who piss me off'', he nodded and went back to his work. Today is the day I wont regret. not ever in my life. 

As the break ended, I saw Emma going into my classroom, her face looking puffed as if she was crying. Yeah, I hope she was crying for that stuff she did. I went to her table and slammed the test she wrote on her table, a fat, big 'F' covering the paper. She furrowed her brows, angry, and grabbed the paper, waving it around in the air ''I've learned for this! This is not fair!'', I shook my head, mentally laughing, ''was Life ever fair?'', she sat down back on her chair, gobsmacked. 

The class was getting on well so far, if it wasn't Emma who was talking with Lucy throughout the whole lesson. ''Greene, Stephens. In my office after this lesson'', Lucy looked like she was about to faint from luck whilst Emma was giving me a death stare. Yeah, bitch, stare. just stare. 

After the lesson they both followed me into the office, plopping down into the chairs as I stood in front of the window, my back facing their faces. ''So, Greene, tell me what stories you told Stephens today. I'm curious because you've talked throughout the whole lesson.'', she bit her lip as she looked at me up and down, making me roll my eyes. Teenage hormones at it's best. 

''Nothing interesting. How I spent my weekend..what lingerie I've bought...yeah..red, wasn't it, Ems?'', I frowned at her nickname for Emma. Wasn't that how Zoey called her? Emma nodded and smirked back, which made my fist itch. Yes, I'm usually not violent, but I swear, If someone tries to fuck with my family, my future, they're being thrown in the next river I see. 

''Greene, get out now. You're free'', She furrowed her brows as she grabbed her bag, waving goodbye to Emma which sat there, picking dirt out of her fingernails as if nothing happened. ''So, Emma'', ''You can't first name me, so stop, Mr. downey. You're not cool'', I was grinning at that point, ''Do you know what people do to girls like you in Prison?'', she furrowed her brows, her gaze wandering from her nails to me ''What?'', ''Ever heard of the word 'manslaughter'?'', she looked down, ashamed, as I caught her. I sat down on the table, ready to her bitching about how it isn't her fault, bla, bla. ''W-what are you talking about..'', she stumbled out, again picking dirt out of her fingernails. ''You know exactly what I'm talking about. I don't think you're that stupid. yet.'', She pulled out her mobile phone, typing in a number ''I'm calling my parents, you can't talk to me like that!'', I grabbed the phone out of her hands and threw it out of the window, I was full of her shit. ''No phones allowed in school. Now listen to me. I have heard from your plans, I have heard how you talked with Zoey'', she looked down, biting her lip. I was fucking hoping to see her like that. ''Your parents can't help you out of this situation, and they wouldn't want to if they heard what you did last evening.'', she looked at me, her eyes wet, fumbling with words ''I-I didn't mean to!'', ''You don't mean anything you do, right?'', she nodded, a small tear escaping her eye. ''Yeah. Don't we all do stupid things out of love? But I didn't expect it from you, Emma. How could you do something like this? She had practically no one when she came here and you used her. How could you? Don't you have a heart?'', I was calmed by now, thinking that violence was no answer. She nodded, biting her lip again. ''I have one...but she..she ruined everything...never mind..'', ''Emma. I want you to go to another school. It would be better for you, for me, for everything'', She looked at me, her brows raised, mouth slightly gaped ''No, please!'', I turned around, facing the window again. ''Tell me one last thing, What did you pay matty for?'', She breathed out, playing with her hands out of nervousness. ''I payed him for...having a crush on her so she would...she would leave her fingers from you..'', I shook my head ''I'm calling your parents later, you can go now'', She stood up, stepping closer to me and grabbing my arms. ''Please don't tell my parents! They're strict! I'm not heartless! Please!'', I shook my head again, pushing her away ''Emma, I'm sorry. but you have to stand for the things you do, you almost killed my baby. This is what you exactly are, now please get out.'', She looked down, grabbing her bag and opening the door, ''I really mean it this time'', she whispered as she stepped out, her steps filling in the silence. Suddenly the door was opened again and I turned around in my chair, thinking it was Emma again, but it wasn't.

it was lucy.
