"Baby?"

Her head was sticking out of the door, brows furrowed.

"Uh..come...come in, lucy", I awkwardly stumbled out as if I was a teenage boy again. How will I explain this now? Lucy is against our relationship, she'll tell the whole school, I'll lose my job and then I can't give my child a good future.

"Is it true?", she asked quietly, sitting down on the chair. I breathed out, trying to think of all answers that could fit in the situation.

I'm not the type of man that can lie good, so this whole thing will be a mess if I'll lie...why not tell her truth? It's her own sister for gods sake, what will she do? Kill me? Kill her? us?

I breathed out slowly while closing my eyes before I spoke again "It's true. She's pregnant. Thats why she haven't been in school lately", i couldn't exactly read Lucys expression, but something telled me that she was smiling. "Congrulations!", she exclaimed and I furrowed my brows while shushing her. There were teachers still in the school, what if they would hear that me, a teacher that actually hates his students, has a relationship with one? Oh god.

"what? Weren't you against our relationship?", she looked down whilst biting her lip, as if regret was filling her. No, that couldn't be. She talked so heartless about her sister, why would she regret it now?

"Actually..I wasn't..", I leaned in closer "What do you mean?", she breathed out, playing with her hands nervously before she opened her mouth to speak "Emma..came to me before she was friends with Zoey..She said she can't stand her already and I was mad at Zoey that time because my crush fell for her and she acted like she didn't knew...", I furrowed my brows "So she didn't have a boyfriend named Daniel or something?", she shook her head whilst giving me a confused look "No, she never had a boyfriend..Daniel is just a bully from our old school..", I smiled to myself as I thought that I was actually Zoeys first real relationship. "So as I was saying", I looked to her, again my attention drifting from my thoughts to her "Emma paid me...that I'll act like I hate her to death...", I couldn't describe what I was feeling at the moment.

How could her own blood and flesh be paid for hating? That would never fit in my mind. That's just absurd.

"I was just stupid at that moment...but then...one night..as stupid as it sounds, it all came back down to me. I...felt like I've sold my sister somehow, I, uh, got paid for...bullying her....", She looked at me, her eyes turned wet and she started sniffing. Although she didn't deserve my sympathy, I pulled out tissues and sat down right next to her. She thanked me for the tissues and wiped her tears away and I smiled back, hoping she would feel a little better. "Emma..wanted to ruin Zoeys life..She spread all kind of rumours in the school, she wrote papers like 'kill yourself' and threw it in her locker..She was jealous that...y-you looked at her like some kind of angel..", I bit my lip, it was indeed like some kind of wonder as she came in my class. She was so beautiful that day, so shy, nervous, playing with her hands as if it was some kind of playstation controller. She got more beautiful and beautiful that day, and I could speak about her my life long.

"but I...I started hating Emma...I tried to watch out for her so Zoey wouldn't get in danger...But...now I find out that she's pregnant and that makes the whole thing worse..Is she ok?", She looked at me, her mascara ruining the big eyes she had two minutes ago. I nodded, biting my lip. "She's okay now...but she was in the hospital", Lucy stood up from her chair, her eyes widened whilst her brows were raised, almost touching the ceiling. "What?! How?! Is the baby okay?! How far is she actually?!", I stood up and put my hand on her shoulder, a try of calming her down. "Everything is okay, Lucy. Don't worry. The baby is fine, Zoey is fine. She's 3 months, almost 4.", it seemed as if her eyes widened more, making her look like some scary character from a horror game.

"Ok, sorry if I invade your privacy or something..but..did it happen...in the first month..when she came here..?", my face got red automatically. "Kind of", suddenly she laughed, a hand covering her mouth. "That's not how I thought of Zoey.. anyway, congrulations again..Can I please, please, please come over today?", I looked out the window.

Would Zoey even speak again? Would she even react?

"I don't know if that's..", "Please!", she grabbed me by my shoulders and although she was a little bit smaller than Zoey, damn, she was strong. I gave up, nodding. "But don't start the topic emma..she's weak at the moment", She nodded and smiled slightly. "If you want I can take you with me",

After I pulled into my driveway Lucy started getting nervous, playing with her hands again. I turned off the engine and looked at her with a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, it'll be okay", She smiled slightly although I could still read that it didn't help her at all.

I opened the front door, stepping in first and seeing Zoey asleep on the couch, hugging a pillow. I smiled at the sight and gestured Lucy in, which she did, her whole body shaking. "You're older than her, right?", i asked her quietly, trying not to wake Zoey. She nodded as she took off her shoes, "I'm 19, getting 20 in 3 months", I nodded and went to the couch, still smiling. Zoeys mouth was slightly gaped, her hands holding onto the pillow like some kind of knife. I shook her slightly, leaning in "Zo, hun, wake up", I whispered as I kissed her forehead which she responded with a small grunt and turning around. Again I tried the shaking, but stopped when she again grunted, slapping me with the pillow. I heard Lucy giggle from behind me, "Let me try", she whispered and I let her to Zoey. I can't exactly describe what Lucy did, but Zoey woke up immadietly. Some kind of sister-magic?

"Lu...Lucy?", she stuttered out, rubbing her eyes. I went into the kitchen to make some tea since it was cold in my house which wasn't usual at all. Maybe something broke? I'll call the repairmen later. Why am I even thinking about this?

I shook my head amused as I took the cups and went back into the livingroom, sitting down on the seater next to the couch. Zoey was sitting on the couch, apparently hiding her stomach with the pillow. Oh, if you knew.
*Zoeys P.O.V*

"What exactly are you...doing here?", I tried to hid behind the pillow, trying to not show my stomach since it was...strangly visable.

Robert smiled at me as he saw that I was trying and I glared at him, mentally scolding him that he even let Lucy in without asking me. But it was his house after all, what could I do about it? Stab him with a butterknife whilst summoning Satan to haunt him? 

"I wanted to talk to you..I need to explain something", and so the whole explanation started with me almost spitting tea out, having the urge to slap Lucy, but mostly Emma.

~

I was on good terms with Lucy again and it made me really happy, it was my sister after all. All the things that went down in the past months..weeks.. it was emmas fault, and it hurted me the most, that when you think you know the person, that the person feels like you, even thinks like you, could you use you that shameless without shredding a tear.

I was laying on the couch with Robert with my head on his chest, watching strange reality shows. "Robert?", "yeah?", I looked up to him, trying to hold back laughter as I saw how concentrated he was. He looked at me amused as he catched me, slapping me slightly on the forehead. "What do you think it's gonna be?", He furrowed his brows, sitting up slightly.  "Huh?", "do you want it to be a boy or girl", He smiled as he looked at the ceiling and I turned around, facing him. "Honestly, I don't care. As long as it's healthy and it can fart, I don't care. It's my baby, I won't feel bad if it's a girl", I furrowed my brows amused "So you want a boy?", he looked at me, "Who said that? What do you think of me! I don't care if it's a girl, it's just more stress..", I slapped him on the shoulder. "You know what they say when you have a girl?", I stood up as he furrowed his brows even more "It's for all the things you've done wrong in the past", I smiled as I heard him grunt, making my way upstairs.
