January 3rd, 1992

The small diner was a regular haunt by the teenagers of the small American time and today was no exception. Hallie sighed as she stepped into the diner, smiling at the sweet smell of the cookies and the loud sound of the excited chatter of friends. She scanned the hall and smiled as she spied her three friends sat on the corner booth. She headed over but was stopped by a footballer getting in her way.

"Alright, ginger." Logan Andrews sneered as he wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"Get off me." She snapped back trying to shake him off of her but he weighed a little more than she did. The guy had been after her for god knows how long and she couldn't stand him. The way he stared at her breasts instead of her face, the way he made sexual comments as if he was talking like a normal gentleman.

"Ginger, don't act all frigid." He whispered in her ear. "I think you're just as easy as your whore of a sister."

Hallie found herself stiffening, her hands moved up to his broad shoulders as she tried to push away. "What are you talking about?" She whispered angrily.

"She's pregnant. Daniel must be so proud he picked the right sister." The guy sneered gently releasing her and laughing. "Oh my God, you didn't know! And everyone thought the two Robinson sisters were closer than close."

"That's because you're lying." She spat at him angrily. Knowing that he would be the kind of idiot to find that funny.

"Believe what you want your gorgeous. But everyone else knows." He whispered before moving to join his fellow footballers.

Hallie stayed rooted to the spot, her heart racing as she looked over at the table. Her sister was pregnant? Her sixteen year old sister was pregnant with a man she'd only been dating for over a month?

"Hallie?" Candice whispered gently squeezing her shoulder. Candice knew that Hallie and Logan hated each other in a kind of loving way. She knew that her best friend would listen to him and believe that her sister was pregnant. "He was just trying to wind you up."

"I know but what if she is? Dad will kill him!"

"So would you. So would I. Anyone would kill him, Hallie. She's not pregnant."

As they sat down at the table they noticed the glow around Louise, the way Daniel's hand innocently rested on her abdomen. "Hallie, I'm pregnant!" Louise burst out reaching over and squeezing her sister's hand. "We're going to be a family!"

"A family? Are you kidding Louise? You're sixteen!"

"I love him, Hallie! He loves me! Why can't you just be happy? You've done nothing but moan since we got together."

"Because I knew the horny bastard wouldn't be able to keep his friend in his pants!" Hallie screamed back before leaving the diner, quickly followed by Logan.

Candice looked over at Louise. "Don't worry about her. She's going to need time to process the fact. Give her time to realise that." Louise nodded before turning back to look at her boyfriend.

"We'll need to get married and plan names and…"

That night was the last time Louise could make joint plans with Daniel about their baby's future. As he walked home, he was attacked from behind. A blade was quickly ripped across his pale neck. The attacker ran away, the blade had dropped to the floor next to the poor boy's dying body.

Louise Robinson had to go through her pregnancy without the father, without justice. It was even more painful when the case was locked away simply marked cold.
