You Gave Without Taking Consent Away
Looking in their eyes, I see a memory, I never realized, how happy you made me aw Mandy. Well you came and you gave without taking, but I sent you away aw Mandy. Well, you kissed me and stopped me from shaking, and I need you Today, aw Mandy.
In bed I lay this moment, as tears of overwhelming sadness and fear stream down my face. My name is Amanda Anderson,-or as my Brother, Josh, calls me—Mandy. Everything between the two of us was perfect, until just three months ago. We were the Ideal siblings, and even though our older Sister, Sam had died, we were there for each other. Our family somehow managed to keep on living, just as she would have wanted. Looking back on it now, neither of us could've predicted what was to come after Sam left us.
Josh and I have always been close, but we never imagined, in our wildest dreams, that things would go this far. As I burry my head in the pillow, I can think of only one thing. It's his baby. My Brother's. Josh. I know that I'm not even far enough along to grow out of my jeans, and yet there is a tiny life inside of me. I sigh, placing a hand in the center of my stomach. This isn't what happens to a brother and sister, it's just not.
With unsteady fingers I text my brother, for the first time since he left for college. The message consists of four words. I'm having your baby. And then I hit send.
Josh's P.O.V
I reach into my pocket to grab my phone. One new text. I smile as I see it's from Mandy, but my heart drops and my eyes go cold as I read the contents. I'm having your baby. I gasp, and try as I might, I can't stifle the words that come from my throat. "Holy Shit, this cannot be happening!" All eyes in the classroom are on me, including those of my Ethics Professor. And Just like that I'm out the door and on a bus back to Manhattan. I don't know when I'll return to College. I don't know how much of this my parents will already be aware of once I walk in the door. I have no idea what the future holds for Mandy or for myself. The only thing I'm certain of is that my sister needs me.
First Chapter guys! I'm already having so much fun writing this, so I promise it will be continued. I encourage you all to watch the movie "Consent" with Troian Bellisario and Peter Vack. Hulu is the best source to see it! :) & By watching you will get the foundation for this story! ~LittleLiarLovesEmily P.S.~PLEASE REVIEW
