Hired for Hemmings

chapter 29

I wake up laying in a bed, I look over and see the boys sitting there beside me, i notice that were back home. I sit up and my head hurts horribly.

" Riley are you okay?" Calum asks me sitting on the edge of the bed.

" I'm okay, where is Luke?" I ask about to get up but Calum sits me back down.

" He is talking to your mom." Ashton says to me and my mind remembers what happened earlier.

" I'm pregnant.." I whisper to myself, but I know they heard me.
Tears begin to stream down my face.

" It's okay, Ri, please don't cry." Michael says to me and I look at him.

" No its not okay." I begin, " I'm only 17."

" Okay, but we can help you." Ashton says with a smile and I give him a look.

" I'm sorry, maybe not that good help, but the best we all can." He says.

I just sit there and cry, " My mom! Shes.. Going to kill me" I sob.

I hear the bedroom door open and its Luke, " Babe, are you okay?" He asks sitting next to me putting his arms around me but I push him away.

" Do I look okay?" I begin I stand up and Ashton grabs my arm, " I can stand, but I am seventeen years old, Not even an adult! I am not ready to hold a child, I am not okay, Luke! How are you suppose to take care of the baby with me when you have a career!" I take a step back, " Haven't you realized that you are nineteen, we aren't ready for this, but its okay right? because you're not the one who has to go through the pain."

I look at him and he has no words, none at all.

Lukes Pov-

She looks at me and I can't say anything.

But, I love her.

I know I'm eighteen, this is not what I had planned for us at all, none of this.

I see her walk out of the room.

" Luke, what are you going to do?" Calum asks me and I look at him.

" Just, leave me alone." I say and walk after Riley.

I walk and see her out side sitting on the edge of the pool swooshing her feet around. I sit
next to her, I realize this is where she goes when shes upset.

" Riley." I say and she doesn't answer but she looks at me.

" I'm going to be here for you, every day, but when I'm busy i still will try to make time. Please don't doubt me. " I say playing with he fingers and she still looking at me, I notice a
tear stream down her beautifully sculpted face.

I wipe it away and kiss her, just kiss her. I want to take away the pain she has, but I cant. All i can do is love her.

She begins to cry. It hurts me to see her hurt like this.

" I'm sorry. I'm sorry." She cries.

I hold her, just hold her.

" Riley, you don't have to be, I love you." I say and kiss her head.

We sit there for a few minutes ins till she calms down.

" What did my mom say?" She asks.

" She's mad, but i told her that I'm going to help you and the baby when its born, we talked for
hours and she calmed down." I said to her.

" I need to talk to her." She says to me wiping her face.

" Wait in till, let her just cool off" I say and she leans into me
and we stare up at the sky.

" You know, sometimes I wonder if this will really work, If we will work." She says softly.

I look down at her and her eyes are closed , " It will."

"promise?" she whispers.

" I promise."
