"That's the worst part of mornings." Katy said as we heard Maya painfully puke out her brains. It made me feel worse than I already felt.
"Is she doing alright? Eating alright? She seems a little-" I couldn't find the words I was looking for. She seemed ghost like.
"Ghostly. Yeah, I understand where you coming from. She seems shell shocked (A/N not referring to PTSD or anything of the matter guys). She'll pull through." She gave me a pat on the shoulder and went to check on Maya. She said she had been vomitting for he past hour ever since she woken.
This made me feel horrible. I should be in there. I should rubbing her back, comforting her. Letting her yell at me to shut up but her being grateful and loved that I was there.
I want to be there but i just don't know what's up with Alek guy. What made her give him a second chance? Will she give him a third? Will she give us a chance?
"Hey." I looked up to see a gorgeous blonde beauty at my feet. How did I get so unlucky and lucky at the same time?
I smiled,"Ready to go?"
She shook her head and grabbed her guitar.
"You don't mind do you?"
"No I don't." Let's begin this two hour road trip shall we.
"Do they know we're coming?" She pulled her hair out of her bun, letting it rest on her shoulders.
"No its a surprise visit." I said. She snorted.
"Surprise? Won't they be getting one already?" She laughs.
"Yeah I guess so." I laughed along with her.
"So what's with the guitar?" I pulled onto the road, our journey beginning.
"I like to play when its quiet. I sometimes sing but I don't want to hurt your eardrums with my thoughtless vocals. And well, Boing, I don't trust your taste in music." I laughed.
" You haven't even heard them yet."
"Exactly!" She giggled and it made my heart swell. Did she know the effect she had on me?
"Play something for me gorgeous." I winked, in acting another giggle from beautiful blonde.
"Okay, Boing! You've been warned."
"I'll take the risk." Those words led her to grab her guitar.
"This song is called Run and Hide. I wrote it a year ago actually." She smiles nervously. She was stunning, the light she brought off was spectacular. And I thought to our promised someday. God, help me!
She began:
I don't wanna buy what they're sellin' these days
Sayin' feelin' and fallin' is all a mistake
No, no
And why does everybody look at young hearts?
Feelin' love, like it's just a matter of time before they break
No, no
God she had a voice. A voice I could listen to all day.
They started sayin', "When you can't hide, run."
"When you can't run, hide."
Started thinkin' love's a loaded gun
Nobody wants to fight
And when did we all start thinkin' that the world
Stop spinnin' in a kiss goodnight?
And when did our heartbeat beatin' too fast
Stop meanin' it was worth the while?
It was hard to keep my eyes on the road. How could one tiny blonde have so much soul in her youth? How could she shine so bright?
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
I want to love you, Maya Hart. But how?
Traded out our eyes to light a screen
Traded out holdin' hands to holdin' back everything
No, no
No, no, oh
And words got shorter and quiet got longer
And all of a sudden love started lookin' like a memory
No, no, no
How could she even think of her vocals as thoughtless? She is as thoughtful as it can get.
They started sayin', "When you can't hide, run."
"When you can't run, hide."
Started thinkin' love's a loaded gun
Nobody wants to fight
And when did we all start thinkin' that the world
Stop spinnin' in a kiss goodnight?
And when did our heartbeat beatin' too fast
Stop meanin' it was worth the while?
At that moment, her eyes were closed. She was breathtaking.
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide, no
They started sayin, "When you can't hide, run."
"When you can't run, hide."
But, love don't gotta be a loaded gun
Oh, a losin' fight
And when did we all start thinkin' that the world
Stop spinnin' in a kiss goodnight?
And when did our heartbeat beatin' too fast
Stop meanin' it was worth the while?
But I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
She finished the song but she still didn't open her eyes. She sat, leaned her head back and let out a breath.
"That was absolutely beautiful." She opened her eyes. She smiled widely.
"Thank you." She stared at me. I wanted to stare back but I was driving. She played the melody while we drove to our destination.
"Maya?" She fell asleep and I hated waking her up. We had to make some stops because of the morning sickness.
She opened her eyes.
"We're here. Already." I laughed.
"Yeah. Come on, little ferret." She took my hand and it felt so right. So right that it took me by surprise. My whole body lit on key when we touched.
"Josh?" My mom called when we walked in.
"Maya?" She yells, making her way over, hugging us both.
"So glad to see you both! Allen get down here! What are you two doing here?" She walked us to the living room.
"Maya you okay? You don't look so good."
"Alright, Amy, what do you want? Oh! Josh, Maya what a surprise?" He went to mom's side.
"Mom, dad we have some interesting news." My mom gasped.
"Are you two dating? Finally! Allen I told you!" She exclaims.
"Not exactly mom."
"Well, what do you mean?" Her face shot up in worry.
"I'm pregnant." The words seemed so small coming out of her mouth. I looked to my parents, their faces showed it all. Anger. Hurt. Sadness.
"What? H-how? What?" My mom is so disappointed. I know that look and it shatters me. I got it tons of times when I did something stupid back then. This time I did the ultimate stupid. God, I aged karma.
"Umm..wheres the bathroom? Not really feeling good right now." Maya turned green and my mom suddenly turned alarm.
She got up quickly and helped Maya up the stairs.
I didnt know I was holding a breath til I let it go. I finally let what I am in take its toll. The stress should be gone but its not. Its still there. Eating me alive.
"Josh, son, how did this happen?"
I couldn't speak. "I don't know dad. I love her. I know I am 20, I don't know what love is but I do. I love her. I will spend the rest of my life making her happy." My father patted me on the back.
"God, you are another Cory." He shook his head groaning about needing a beer.
After 30 mins of continous puking till my stomach was completely empty, I was left with Mrs. Matthews. I was completely terrified.
"Maya?" She sat on the floor next to me. She hugged me. I didn't know it until later, I was crying.
I wasn't crying because of my situation, I was crying for my child. Would I be a good mother?
"Maya it's okay. Its okay." She rubbed my back.
"It isn't. I don't know if I can do this? I don't know if I will screw up or not? I am scared."
She chuckled,"Oh honey! Its okay to think that. I still think about but I did a good job or not. Its hard but it'll get easier. And you are not alone in this, Josh is here. He isn't going anywhere." I cried in her shoulders for a while. Thankful we would be spending the weekend here.
...
So I wanted to cut this short. My hands started hurting. So what do you think? Comment please!
