Unexpected

On her own. By herself.

Millie stopped walking and let go of Andrew's hand. She turned to face him and almost smiled at his confused expression. 

"Obviously it's yours." Millie said and looked down at her feet.

When Andrew didn't say anything, she looked up at his face. He was still frozen in place. 

"Say something." she plead.

"My parents are going to kill me." he finally whispered. "I can't have a baby with you." he then said, and before Millie could react, he continued. "I'm supposed to be with someone else."

"Wait, what?" Millie loudly said, shocked.

Millie's shocked question snapped Andrew back to reality. He looked at her with apologetic eyes. "My parents have a girl back home that I'm supposed to marry. Angelica. All of my brothers married through arranged marriages. I-I can't do this." Andrew said and turned around. He got into his car and drove off, leaving Millie alone in the parking lot. She blinked through the tears.

Arranged marriage?

Angelica?

He doesn't want the baby.

With that in mind, Millie mentally prepared herself for forgetting about Andrew and to get herself into the mentality that she was going to have to do this alone. On her own. By herself.

She nodded to herself and looked back at the beach. She didn't feel like talking to anyone else tonight, so she began walking home instead. She tried to sneak inside, but her mom heard her entering.

"How was the party?" she asked, which was enough for Millie's tears to start running. 

Her mom embraced her and guided her to the couch. When Millie's crying had calmed down, she told her mom that she had met Andrew and that she had told him, and that he didn't want the baby. 

"I'm going to have to do this on my own." Millie sobbed.

"Not at all." her mom said. "I'm here. Nate's here. Becca's here. We will all help." That made Millie cry even harder. Millie didn't notice falling asleep, until her mom woke her up and guided her to her bed.

Andrew

He was about to become a father. 

He didn't even know Millie that well.

His parents.. He was a dead man walking.

Yes, he had been a douche and driven off, but he had driven back soon after to give her a ride home. When he hadn't seen her, he had figured that she had gone back down to the beach. 

He couldn't sleep. He rolled from one side, to another. It didn't help. His mind was spinning everywhere. He was tempted to go over to Millie's house and explain further, but going to a girl's house at 3:30 am sent nothing but the wrong signs. 

He sighted.

He needed to tell his parents. First thing in the morning.

He had fallen asleep, two hours before he know that his parents would wake up. To make sure that they were both home, he got out of bed as well. He found his parents in the dining room along with Ludwig, Paulette and Charlie that had arrived with the rest of them, late last night.

"Andrew. It's unusual to see you up this early." his mom greeted him. 

"I couldn't sleep." Andrew sighted and mentally prepared himself. "And I've got something to say." he then added. 

He got his mother's attention right away. He waited for his father to put his paper down, and didn't really care what Ludwig, Paulette and Charlie were focusing on.

"I got a girl pregnant." Andrew finally said.

Charlie spit his coffee straight out. Camille looked like she was about to cry. Tod looked mad. Ludwig looked shocked and Paulette scrolled her phone and hadn't been paying attention.

"You did what?" Tod asked in a stern voice.

"I got a girl pregnant." Andrew repeated.

"Angelica?" Charlie asked.

"No. Millie." Andrew said and looked at his mother.

"Millie Donovan? From the restaurant?" she asked and Andrew nodded. Camille put a hand over her mouth in shock.

"When did this happen?" Tod asked, looking straight at Andrew.

"In March." Andrew replied. 

"Get out." Tod said. Andrew had seen his father mad before and knew that the only thing to do was to do what he said. He turned around and began to walk away. "Get Miss Donovan to do an abortion and call Angelica and tell her." his father called after him. 

Andrew was running on adrenaline and decided to call Angelica straight away.

"Hello?" she answered.

"Hi, it's Andrew." he replied.

"What is the time there?" she asked sounding very tired.

"Early."

"It's earlier here." 

Shoot, time difference, Andrew thought.

"Sorry. I just called to saw that I got a girl pregnant. I don't really know her, but I know it's mine."

"Wait, you got another girl pregnant?" Angelica asked. She sounded more awake now.

"Unfortunately, yes." Andrew sighted, preparing himself for the yelling. Angelica was quiet for a while.

"Thank you." she then whispered.

What?

"Come again?" Andrew asked.

"Thank you. I can't marry you Andrew. I've got a boyfriend that my parents don't know about. His name is Jack and he's in a band. Maybe now I can be with him in public." It sounded like she smiled.

"You're welcome?" Andrew said. 

"Andrew?"

"Yes?"

"I hope you'll be happy."

He smiled. "You too."

They hung up soon after and Andrew thought that he really needed to find Millie.
