Nate’s SOS
I was at Alexis’s house. Taking care of her. She was ill. I had no idea what was wrong. She slept daily, 24/7. She was throwing up alot, and she was hungry. All the TIME!
“Yuck, Nate what’s that smell”
“Nothing, I don’t smell anything” I said
“Did you put on too much cologne today or something?”
“No, I’m not wearing cologne”
“Well whatever it is, it smells like a dead animal, yuck” she said and wrinkled her nose.
I tried to alter the subject
“Does it make me crazy, because even in this state, I nonetheless think you look beautiful?
“YES, IT DEFINITELY MAKES YOU INSANE!”
I just chuckled. I spent about two more hours with her, but then I had to go home. We had school the next day.
When I got home, I walked in to see my mom and my dad making out.
“MOM, DAD, DAMN, THAT SHIT IS NASTY, Y’ALL HAVE A ROOM, GO USE IT, EWWWW”
“Excuse me, but this right here, is why you exist. And no one says anything when you kiss Alexis in front of the entire family” my dad said
“Well, that’s different” I said
“And how is it different?” my mom asked
“Well, ewww, you guys are- your- OLD!”
“Hahaaaa, boy, your crazy, me and your father aren’t old, just acquiring better.” my mom retorted
I just looked at them and stated “eww” than walked upstairs to my room.
I laid back on my bed, and kept questioning what the hell was wrong with Alexis. Perhaps it was the flu.
Hmmmm. I don’t know.
Maybe google will tell me. I went to my closet shelf and grabbed my laptop.
I opened my web, and went to google and searched “vomiting, dizziness, eating alot, stomach cramps.”
The result turned up and it said
PREGNANCY
My heart sank.
Alexis’s SOS
Nate hadn’t talked to me, or came to see me in 3 days. I would call him and he wouldn’t answer. I wondered what was wrong.
I walked in school for the very first time this week. I saw my brother at his locker. So I walked over to him to ask him if he knows whats wrong with ante.
Mark’s SOS
“Hey big brother, have you talked to Nate lately”
Oh shit, how was I gonna tell her. Nate wasn’t speaking to my sister because he was afraid. He knew that she was pregnant. He called me the other night, crying. Telling me how he wasn’t ready to be a father, and how he was scared. and how we didn’t want to lose Alexis due to the fact he knew babies make things complicated.
He was ranting on, and I didn’t understand. He explained to me what was up. Now, I can tell pregnancy symptoms without google. I paid attention in health class. My sister showed all of the symptoms.
He told me about her remark about his smell. She even had hightened senses. Man, this was a fucked up situation. I’m not ready to be an uncle, my parents aren’t ready to be a ‘grandmom and grandpop’ nate SURELY wasn’t prepared to be a father, and most importantly, alee isn’t prepared to be a mother.
“Sis, that’s one thing I’ll have to talk to you about later” I said
“What do you mean, I just wanted to know whats up with him, and why he hadn’t been speaking to me, whats so confidential about that?”
“Look, alee, like I stated, later okay”
I tried to walk away, but she followed behind me, and turned me around.
“Mark, whats going on, tell me…NOW!” she demanded
“Look, I believe this is one thing you and Nate should be talking about” I said
“I cant talk to him about anything, If I don’t know what the problem is” she said.
“Look, alee, are you pregnant?” I whispered to her. She backed away from me wide eyed, and said nothing, she pushed me, and then walked away.
Bry’s SOS
::bry, cum meet me inside the bathroom plz::
I got a text from lex, so instead of going to homeroom. I went into the bathroom
Lex was inside crying, she had tears streaming down her face. “Bry, mark asked me if I was pregnant”
“WHAT, why inside the hell would he ask you that?” I asked alarmed
“Remember how I told you I thought Nate was mad at me, and that’s most likely why he isn’t speaking to me?” she asked me
“Yea, so is that why, he thinks your pregnant?”
“Upp”
“Then why are you crying lex” I asked
“He just deserted me, which lets me know, that he would desert out baby” She stated.
“WHAT, No lex, he’s not like that, he’d be a superb father” I said
“No bry, he wouldn’t assist me at all, I can already see it, how could he be having this feeling that I’m pregnant for 3 days, and not come see me, check on me, call me, or ask how I’m doing.”
“Lex, maybe he was just scared, Becoming a father is a big step to take, as is becoming a mother” I said
“Yea bry I guess, THANK you SOOOO considerably for talking with me, I actually needed that, I Just got so pissed” she said.
“Alexis, you know I adore you, that’s the last thing you need to worry about, im here for you okay…..Now I have to ask you one thing.” I said
“Sure bry, something, wassup” she said
“Lex, are you actually pregnant?”
Nate’s SOS
I had managed to obtain through the school day avoiding Alexis. I knew I wasn’t prepared to be a dad. But it was happening. I had to take responsibility..
I wouldn’t be a dead beat father. My father isn’t, he’s around, and has always taken care of me.
I decided to call Alexis. I needed to talk to her about our situation. We needed to tell my parents, and we needed to come to terms with it. We were going to be parents. In control and with holding full responsibility for another life.
“Hey, bunny, can you come to my house?”
“OH, so now you’ve decided which you want to speak to me” she angrily said
“Look, I don’t want to fight, we have a lot more important things happening right now, so can you just please come over?”
“Yea, I’ll be over soon” she said, and then hung up without having any goodbye’s
She arrived at my house a whole hour later. I didn’t think she’d take that long.
“Hey beautiful” I stated.
“Hey” she stated unenthusiastically
“Look. I’ve been thinking lately about what’s been going on, and I’m sorry I haven’t talked to you these past 3days, and that I’ve been avoiding you, but I needed just a little time to think about our new found issue. I know what things like this bring. It causes complication in the relationship. But I don’t want to lose you, so I’m willing to do what ever I need to do.” I said
“Nate, I haven’t the slightest clue of what ‘situation’ you talking about” she said even though putting air quotes up on the situation part.
“You know, about…” I looked at her stomach
“Nate, I’m on my period” I said
“Huh?”
“I’M ON MY PERIOD, I’M NOT PREGNANT, YOUR NOT GOING TO BE A FATHER. MY BROTHER WONT BE AN UNCLE, OUR PARENTS WONT BE GRANDPARENTS, AND I’M NO ONES FUCKING MOTHER. I’M NOT PREGNANT. IT WAS FOOD POISONING YOU ASSHOLE. AND THE SMELL FROM THE OTHER DAY, WAS FOOD THAT I ATE AND NEVER THREW AWAY, SITTING AND ROTTING UNDER MY BED!!!!!”
“Ph” I had no words
“OH, OH NATE, THAT’S ALL YOU CAN SAY?” she yelled
“This whole time, you jumped to the conclusion that I was pregnant, and I wasn’t, you didn’t even have the common sense to ask me. don’t you’ve atleast enough respect for me to ask. Instead of running and hiding like somewhat bitch, and calling my brother, and telling him everything. Its certain things that me and my brother do not discuss. What if I was pregnant, and you told him? You would have ruined everything. At least you could have come and checked If I was alright.”
Her voice cracked on the last sentence. She was right. I had abandoned her, and showed her I couldn’t handle the situation. I should have handled things better. and asked if she was pregnant. I felt like an ass. and I nonetheless couldn’t believe she called me a bitch! But I guess things were okay, I wasn’t going to be a dad.
Bry’s SOS (5 months later)
Me and mark had been together and entire pregnancy period. 9.5 months. it was June. and the last day of school. I was hype. My reign as a sophomore could be gone. I was about to be a junior in high school. I guess I was happy. But sad since it was mark’s Last year after this.
Me and mark were having a discussion about college one day:
_________________________
“Next year, I’m applying to Georgia State University as an accounting, marketing, LAW mostlikely or even a finance major” I said
“Seriously, they’ve wanted me for football. I was thinking about going there on a football scholarship, and major in computer science, biology, perhaps even Real estate” he stated.
“WOW, actually, I thought you’d wanna be a pro player” I said
“NAAh, that’s too risky, I brake a leg or tear a ligament, my career is over, but if I become a doctor, or serious computer geek, I’ll be fit for life.” He said
I looked at him, and chuckled.
“Man, do you know how cool it’d be if we got accepted to the same college” he said
“Yea, it could be fun, wouldn’t it?”

BRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THE DAY WAS More than. LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. I WAS SOOOO Prepared FOR SUMMER!!!
We all walked out of the school, and had been so excited.
“Man bro, were seniors now, we got 1 a lot more year in this piece of shit place” Nate said, speaking to mark
“HELL YEA!”
Me, Josh, Alexis, Lena, Kim, Mike and Liza were seeking at eachother.
“Well hey guys, JUNIORS!” I said, putting my hand up for them to high five me.
They all stared and awkwardly said “JUNIORS!”
“Please, y’all whack ass juniors. booooo” They said
“Yea, but both of your girlfriends are juniors, and so are most of the people you hang with so really, we cant be that whack” Liza joked.
“Yea whatever.” mark said
We all hopped in mark and nate’s cars. I had my Provisional License now. But I didn’t have a car. My mom didn’t let me drive her car. She had a cadillac. So I’m guessing you know why.
My step dad, did let me drive his truck when. Just to show my mom how excellent of a driver I was. I could even one-hand the wheel. I never asked mark to drive his car. Not due to the fact he was stingy or anything. I just felt I’d rather drive my own.
Mark dropped me off home. We all decided to meet up later. We all decided to go to the amusement park.
But nobody wanted to go home, so I told everyone to just come and hang at my house. We agreed upon it, and went to my front door.
I looked on my driveway. I saw a Dark Grey Mustang 2010, with dark pink racing stripes, and all pink spinning shiny rims sitting inside the driveway. This is the car I’ve always wanted. I was pissed, my mom bought yet another car she wouldn’t let me drive
All of my pals had been admiring the car, they were in awe.
I unlocked the door, ran inside the house and yelled for my mom
“WHAT GIRL, WHY ARE YOU YELLING”
“Mom, you know, its kinda messed up, how you gonna buy that car. you know i’ve always wanted a mustang. so your gonna tease me with your new one”
“NO, that’s yours” she said
I had to ask her to repeat herself due to the fact I didn’t hear her
“Wait, what?”
‘THE CAR…IS YOURS, YOU KNOW I DON’T LIKE PINK!” she exclaimed
“AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
I screamed, she put the keys in my hands, and I bolted out of the house. I had my own personal mustang I my two favorite colors
This summer would definitely be live.
