All I Want Is You

Leaving

Ben was so upset that he had to leave; Ben said a tearful goodbye to everyone. Joe was up in his room Ben ran off to say bye to him.

Ben: “Uncle Joe, hey we are leaving so I came to say bye to you.”

Joe: “What do you mean leaving?”

Ben: “Mum wants to stay with a friend of hers instead of here.”

Joe: “Oh well bye buddy it was cool hanging with you.”

Ben: “Yea it was, I just want to say that it would have been cool if you were my actual dad. Don’t get me wrong I will miss my dad every day but I didn’t really know him, but I know you so if my mum ever wakes up and realizes that she feels the same way you do then I will be happy with you being with my mum.”

Joe: “Wow your pretty smart for an 8 year old, how do you know that I like her.”

Ben: “Joe serious I may be 8, but I understand the way you look at her and it’s the same way your dad looks at your mum.”

Joe: “Really and what’s that?”

Ben: “Love.” (Ben quickly hugs Joe and runs off)

2 weeks later Demi was back in New York with Ben, he wasn’t happy to be back.

He loved being in California.

But most of all he loved being with Joe and the rest of the family. Over the time he spend with them he became close to them all. Demi knew and felt bad that he had to leave them. One cold rainy morning Demi woke up to not feeling the best like she didn’t want to do anything but she knew Ben had school. So she got out of bed and went to see if he was awake. But she found him still in bed asleep.

Demi: “Come on Ben, you need to get ready for school.”

Ben: “I don’t feel like going mum.”

Demi: “Oh Ben…not this again. You can’t miss too much school.”

Ben: “Mum…I’m sorry.”

Demi: “It’s fine.”

Then Demi felt that sick feeling and ran off to the bathroom to be sick in the toilet. Ben got out of bed quickly and ran into the bathroom to see if his mum was ok.

Ben: “Mum are you Ok.”

Demi: “No actually I think I’m coming down with something and I need to call B.”

Ben: “Ok, I’ll get the phone.”

Ben ran off to get the phone for his mum, so she could call Bianca. Once she ran her Bianca was at the shop sorting out the new shipment when she answered the phone.

Bianca: “Hello.”

Demi: “B, I can’t come in today. But I do however need your help with something.”

Bianca: “Ok,  sure I’ll over soon.”

Demi: “Great do you think you could grab a few things for me too.”

Bianca: “Of course I can, what do you need?”

Demi: “Milk, some bread and possibly a pregnancy test.”

Bianca: “What; are you sure Dems?”

Demi: “I think so.”

Bianca: “Ok, well when I get there we are gonna talk.”

Demi: “Ok.”

After an hour later Bianca showed up and Ben answered the door to her. She was a little curious why Ben wasn’t at school now. Demi was sitting in the lounge room waiting. Bianca walked in and put the stuff on the coffee table.

Bianca: “So why isn’t Ben at school already?”

Demi: “He wasn’t feeling well today.”

Bianca: “Oh… well go an take the test and I’ll wait here and then we will talk Ok.”

Demi: “Ok.”

Demi picked up the pregnancy text box and walked off back to the bathroom to take the test. About 5 minutes later she came out with it and took a seat on the lounge next to Bianca. She had to wait 5 minute for the results. When 5 minutes was up Demi checked the test and her eyes when wide.

Ben was in his room when all this was happening, he actually took the phone without Demi noticing and made a call to someone. That someone answered as soon as the phone rang.

???: “Hello.”

Ben wasn’t sure if he should speak, he waited for at lease 5 minute before the other person was going to hang up.

Ben: “Please don’t hang up.”

???: “Who is this?”

Ben: “It’s Ben.”

???: “Ben, why are you calling?”

Ben: “Because I miss you Joe.” (About to cry)

Joe: “I know buddy, I miss you too.”

Ben: “I should go, my mum will be mad that I’m using the phone without her knowing.”

Joe: “It’s fine, how is she anyway?”

Ben: “Well sick at the moment.”

Joe: “That’s not good, I hope she’s feeling better soon.”

Ben: “Me too, Bye Joe.”

Joe: “Bye buddy.”

Back in the lounge room Demi was lost for words about the results of the test.

Bianca: “Well what does it say?”

Demi: “It’s positive B, I’m pregnant.”

Bianca: “Wow so who’s the father?”

Demi: “Nick’s brother Joe.”

Bianca: “Damn what the hell did you do in California?”

Demi now had tears in her eyes remember what it was like to be with Joe.

Demi: “Well I started to have feelings for Joe, after we first kissed maybe before then when I first saw him. They felt a lot stronger then what I ever felt for Nick. So we started something and at first I wanted it to be for fun only and well he found out and I froze up and said that was all I wanted it to be, nothing more. But the truth was I wanted what he wanted I was just scared and it only took me after finding out I’m pregnant with his baby that I want all those things with him, but now it’s too late” (Tears running down her cheeks)

Bianca: “Oh Dems… It looks to be like you’re in love with him, if you now know you want something serious with the guy. So I’m saying this because I love you and you’re my best friend. You and Ben are going back to California and you are going to tell him you are pregnant and in love with him.”

Demi: “Oh I don’t know about that.”

Bianca: “Demi… he is the father right?”

Demi: “Yes, but he doesn’t want to talk to me after I hurt him.”

Bianca: “Well then call his sisters and talk to one of them about you coming.”

Demi wasn’t sure if it was the right thing to do.
