Scientist Chapter 4-I Had to Find You

Hopefully I'll be able to update more often because it's summer=P

…

Allison ran from my doorstep.

"Allison! Come back! I-"

She was gone.

…

Allison...I thought. I loved her. She was like the sister I never had, and she needed me. Or so it seemed…

"Adam?" Kris called from somewhere inside. "Are you alright? Did-Did you just yell Allison?"

I hesitated. "Y-Yeah...She just left. She looked upset and only was out of her car for, like, 3 minutes maybe..."

"Well don't just stand there then dumbass! It's obvious that something's wrong and she needs us."

"Allison's not a child anymore. She wants to take care of herself and we can't control her and-"

"Just because she 21 now doesn't mean she's completely grown up. You know what 21 year olds do on their birthday. They get drunk and...hookup..."

I gulped. It was like Kris knew my guilt.

"Can you come with me? To find her?"

"Of course Adam. She's my sister too..."

…

Allison's POV

I felt like shit. Adam had done nothing wrong, and I was treating him like he wasn't there. Didn't he deserve to know he was going to be a father? Why couldn't I get those two fucking words out?

I looked in my rearview mirror. There was Adam, speeding behind me as if he cared to catch up with me. I wanted him. I wanted to pull over and for him to pull over too and to get out of his car and I would kiss him. Right there. But I couldn't. Kris was with him.

It hurt too much to see them in love. To know that I'd never be in Kris' place.

I kept driving, not once looking back in an attempt to keep myself from being humiliated. At least more so than I already was.

I got off the highway and made about twenty or so turns to lose them. Adam was really persistent…That was one thing I loved about him. He wouldn't stop until he could look out at the world and be happy with what he saw. But that was the attitude that would ruin my life.

I parked in an abandoned parking lot of a closed store, locating Adam and Kris' car down the street, probably still searching for me. I got out of the car to walk around for a while. Walking was good for me. It helped me think, which was definitely something I would have to do a lot of. Luckily for me it was dark outside, otherwise my hair would have been a definite giveaway.

Even in the dark it was.

Kris' POV

"ADAM SLOW DOWN OR YOU'LL HIT THE PEDES-. Oh my God it's Allison…"

Adam stopped the car, parking it next to the one we both knew was hers. The car was barely stopped when Adam bolted out, following the girl.

He cared so much about her. I knew he loved me, but I knew there was a huge part of his heart that went to the girl. I loved them both, but part of me was jealous. Alli was like a sister to me. I knew that if Adam was straight, he would have immediately ran to Allison. I could tell that she loved him. More than just a friend. Like I loved him.

Allison was sitting on a bench crying when we caught up with her. When she saw us, she got up, but Adam's grasp was stronger than her willpower.

She muttered something that was just barely audible. "We'll talk in the car…"

When we got in her car, Adam looked at her, as if trying to read the expression off of her dimly lit face.

"You're hiding something. You know that we love you and just want to help-" Adam was cut off by Allison's tears.

"You'll hate me."

"We could never hate you Alli," I started, putting my arm around Allison. The three of us were in the backseat, Allison in the middle with my lover and I on either side of the girl. "Just tell us so we can help you."

She hesitated.

"I…I'm pregnant."

I was shocked. Honestly, I was disappointed, but also confused.

"Who's the father?" I asked, trying to break the awkward silence, only to make it more awkward.

Once again, Allison hesitated. She looked around, from me to Adam, then back to me, then again to Adam. Finally, she answered. "I-I-I don't know…"

"That's not the Allison I know. Talk to me when you do know." With that, I got out of the car and drove home, not bothering to realize how stupid I sounded, or how I left Adam in Allison's car.

I couldn't sleep that night. I had too much guilt. Here was my chance to help this poor girl who obviously was paying for her mistake and I blew it. Adam obviously hadn't left her or treated her as badly as I did. If he wanted to, he would have been out of the car before I was. But he wasn't going to. He wasn't cruel like I was. He got a ride home.

"Kris, I know you're mad, but Allison's going to stay with us for a while…Or at least for the night."

"Fine…I feel really bad but…I don't know…Part of me wants to be mad at Alli, but the other wants me to be mad at who ever…"

Adam looked pale as a sheet, either at the idea of me beating a guy up, or the idea of Allison having sex.

"Kris…Alli told me something…And I think I should tell you…"

…...

This would be a perfect time for Adam to tell Kris the truth…But will he? Tell me what you think!
