"You have to help her!" I yelled at him. He rolled his eyes and walked further away from me. "She's isn't my issue. It's her fucking fault anyways. I don't need that type of shit following me around."
"It's your baby Hunter, she is your girlfriend. She loves you. Yes, she may be pissed off at you at the moment, but I know, if you asked to come back, she'd accept. Just please, don't throw her away. Meredith is a good person! She is so sweet and so kind! She will be an amazing mother, just see. Don't give up on her just because you guys are going to have a child."
"And if you can't do it for Meredith, do it for your baby. No child deserves to be deserted. A child needs a father, someone to look up to. You might have a daughter or a son. I know it's a lot, but you and she can do anything. She needs you."
Hunter looked at me and rolled his eyes once again. "She hates me! I slept with her best friend and lied to her about it! I left her once she told me she was pregnant! I told her to get rid of it! She will never accept me back! And I don't want to go back, Beverly. I can't be around her! She was such a clingy fucking girlfriend! If I'm being honest, I'm not just leaving her because of the baby. I'm leaving because I can no longer handle the shit she puts me through."
"She isn't that bad Hunter, she is just acting all weird because she can't trust you."
"It's just not that Beverly, I've fallen for another girl," Hunter said completely shocking me.
"Are you serious?" I asked him.
He nodded. "I've liked her for a long time, but she never notices me. But I guess I had no chance at all when I was dating Mer, but now that I am single, I have a little bit of a shot"
"Then you need to truly talk to her Meredith then, she deserves an explanation. You need to tell her about the other girl. I've gotten close to her once again, and I'm really trying to keep her as a friend at the moment."
"Then I don't think I should tell her about my crush, it would probably only make things worse."
" How would it make it worse?" I asked him. " I mean if I tell her that I like another woman, that won't matter as much. But I thought I actually tell her who it is, it wi destroy both of your guises friendships." he said.
I looked at him. I knew the answer. I knew who he liked.
And he was right. if Meredith ever found out that Hunter liked me, she would kill me. Along with him. She would think we set up this as a ruse, to get them to break up. Then she would never talk to me again. I know she's upset already, about the whole baby thing. And I'm trying to help her. But I know she finds out that Hunter likes me, she'll hate me forever. She'll never believe me, and she'll never forgive me.
" fine, don't tell her. But you have to tell her that you like somebody else, you have to tell her the truth. Just leave my name out of it. Make something up if he has to! Say that you like another girl! Whatever you need to do. You will not ruin our friendship again."
Hunter nodded in shame. A second ago, he was raging. But now, he was a broken person. He knew he had hurt me, and Meredith. I could see it in his eyes that he regretted everything. But what I learned from my father, is that you don't get to pick who you love.
" just please, don't say anything about this to her. I'll talk to her when I need to. I promise I won't take too long. No more than a week. I just need to think of what I want to say to her. It's a lot to tell her. What about the baby? What does she plan to do with it?"
" she plans to keep it. But right now, she's on the edge of thinking about giving it up for adoption. She doesn't want to do it alone. You're destroying her life, even though you're getting away with it. you have to understand that this baby is a huge deal. And you leaving, is making things 1000 times worse. And if she decides that she can't be a good enough mother, or that she won't be able to support the baby, she's going to give it up. It's too late for an abortion, and I know that she would never go for that in the first place"
" I don't want her to give it up for adoption. I want her to keep it."
" but you don't get to make that decision, and you know that. Unless you were going to be with her, you need to shut your mouth, let her do it she wants to. She's the one who have to raise it, she is the one who has to pay for everything. This is ruining her life, not yours. You need to grow some balls, and talk to her. I'm not giving you a week. I'm giving you two days. And if you don't, I'm gonna tell her. And I'm gonna make it sound 1000 times worse than it already is."
I grab my purse, and stormed out of his apartment. I can no longer be around him. He was so irritating. I can't believe he was doing this to her.
She gave him her everything. She destroyed so many relationships to be with him. He cheated on her multiple times, and this is how he is repaying her. I still can't get out of my head, that she still wants to be with him. But she still wall out him to come back. It's horrifying to think that she would allow this. I wish I could just get indoor head, and knock some sense into her.

"Do you know what he's gonna do? I think you should go back to her. I know a child is a lot of work, but they could be happy together. I know he's done some pretty bad things to her, but they could be good together!" Wrennly asked me as he laid down next to me.
I scooted the blanket to cover my body, as we lay next to each other. " I don't know. I know this is horrible to say, but I hope she does give it up for adoption. Meredith is too young for this. And she shouldn't get back together with him, he's a horrible person. And they do not belong together!"
"Come on, he isn't that bad. Sure he's made a few mistakes. We all do. I know he's cheated on her multiple times, but he can change, people change! We've seen that, we live in a huge world where bad things happen. We see people change every day."
I sighed. " I know. I know people change, but it seems like he doesn't. Nothing can ever knock some sense into them! Sometimes I just wanna go over them and shoot him between the eyes. I just hope she makes the right decision. That baby deserves the best, and being with them will do no good."
" what do you think about having children? Would you be interested?" He asked.
" with you?"
" God no! I just mean in general. With the world we live in, many people never want to have children. I think I would be a good dad. But I think I'd be a little overprotective. Especially if I had a daughter. I feel like if I had a kid, I'd wanna protect them from the horrible world that we live in. Which would be nearly impossible. But I would give my life for my child if I had to. So what about you?"
" I don't know, a child is a lot. They cost money, they need attention, and I don't know if I can give them all that. I don't know if I can be a good enough mother for them. Maybe if I met the right man, somebody that will love me, and love them. I don't want somebody who would be likely to cheat, or stop loving me."
Shorter chapter guys, sorry! The next chapter should be out soon! Please comment if you see any grammar issues! Also, does anybody have any unique names? I need some for this book for new characters.
