Kyle's P.O.V

August 2016

"Willows going to be here soon" I cry.

"Don't worry" My step father starts as holding my half sisters hand "we're leaving now"

Good. They can't be here when Willow arrives.

"Thank you" I sigh in relief as we stand in the kitchen.

"Kyle another thing" mum takes a sip from her coffee mug "Your father called"

I don't need even a second to process this information. He means so little to me, that he could die and I wouldn't give a fuck.

"Does it look like care?" I snap.

"What did he want?" My step dad asks her.

"He just wanted to talk" my mum says simply.

Talk? He only wants to talk when it's convenient for him. Every other day he's a complete stranger.

"Tell him that I'm done talking" I order as the door bell rings "Look that's Willow"

They need to leave, there's no way in hell that I'm having Willow and my family here at the same time.

"Okay we're leaving" my step dad picks up my sister as the four of us walk towards the door.

I swing the door open, allowing my family to exit our house.

"Hi Willow" my mum smiles at my girlfriend.

"We're just leaving" my step dad adds as they exit the house.

"Hi" Willow wraps her arms around me.

God I've missed her.

"Hey" I greet her with a kiss as she slowly enters my home.

Willow's dark hair is ruffled - that's a first. She's usually well put together but not today. Did something happen? We're already running late for the movie, we can talk on the way.

"Kyle I have something to tell you" she inhales.

"Can you tell me in the car? We'll be late for the movie" I beg as I grab my leather jacket from coat hanger beside me.

"We'll it's kinda important" she grabs my arm.

We exchange looks. Sounds serious.

".....okay" I nod slowly

"I-I think you better sit down" she sighs.

What is she dying or something?

My chest begins to pound as I take a seat on the edge of the dinner table. "So whats up?"

"I'm pregnant" she gulps.

Those two small words hit me like falling bricks. I see the sadness in her eyes grow to tears. I jump off the table and walk to the opposite side of the room.

Suddenly I watch as my entire life flashes before my eyes. The next nine months which will end with a child that I'll have to raise. I would need to quit school. There's no way that I can go to college. I'll need to work every day of my life to provide for a mini me.

I begin rubbing my palms against my face. "You're what?" I finally spit out as she stood behind me.

"Pregnant" Willow repeats. "Tomorrow I'm seeing the doctor to know for sure"

That's what I thought you said.

"Oh no no no no no this can't be happening...How can you do this to me?" I snap "just when I was getting my shit together you go and do this to me!"

"You're saying that this is my fault?" She cries.

I run my fingers through my hair.

"Jesus Christ" I cry as pasting my living room "I can kiss college good bye! Goodbye college! Goodbye life! I'm going go bald at twenty two like those freaks on tv but no worries here's a god damn kid as a consultation prize!"

"Kyle-" she sobs.

"Just leave! Go on shoo" I order.

"You did not just shoo me-" Willow cries.

"Get out of here!" I scream as pointing to the exit "there's the door"

She sends me a dangerous look before storming out of my home.

****

"What am I supposed to do huh!" I scream as sitting at the seat.

Summer school is the highlight of my week. Why? Well Ms Pool of course. She's not like other teachers - she actually seems to care.

"Do you want to know what I think?" Ms Pool takes a seat at the desk beside me "I think you're being a jerk"

I'm being a jerk? She's about to ruin my entire life.

"Right" I lean back in my seat. "....no you know what, I have a right to be mad about this"

"Of course you do" she furrows her brows and nods.

"I'll just deny it" I assure "It's my word against hers"

"Yeah uh huh that seems logical" she nods.

"Cause I'm not ready to be dad" I cry.

"Of course you're only sixteen" Ms Pool nods.

"Damn straight" I nod.

"But let me ask you this" she leans forward "Is Willow ready to be a mum?"

"What?" I blink.

We're talking about me over here, not Willow.

"She's also just sixteen" she informs.

I roll my eyes "What's your point"

"It takes two to tango...meaning that this is equally as much your fault as it is hers" she softens her voice.

She's right. Of course she's right. She always is.

"Right yeah of course" I run my fingers through my hair "So what do you think that I should do?"

"Honestly kids these days" she rolls her eyes "have a face to face conversation with her and address the issue"

I nod.

***

"Hello! Willow!" I scream as slamming my fists against the front door. Suddenly the door swings open "Please let me see her"

"She doesn't want to see you" Willow's mum tells me as blocking the entrance.

"Please" I beg.

I need to make things right between us. We can handle this together. I can be a dad, I'll go to all those damn classes and read the books, I don't care what it takes. I'll be a better father then my dad ever was.

"Jesus Christ is he still here" i hear Willow cry as her mum takes a step back.

"Will-" I start.

"I'm not pregant" Willow tells me as standing at the door.

I pause. Wait what? So all this for nothing?

I blink "Your not?"

"No it was a false positive now leave!" She screams as slamming the door shut.

I exhale.
