Rory sat down on the floor in his room. His Dad was dead and he felt so empty, he was closest to his Dad. They had planned to spend the summer touring America and watching all the sporting matches. Thinking of this pained him and Rory didn't care that tears came to his eyes.
Some of his friends had avoided him ever since he returned to school. They acted as if they could catch death from him. Rory wiped tears away from his eyes. hemissed his dad, he needed his Dad and no-one, not even his Mum or CJ could replace him.
Rory heard his mum calling him but he ignored it. One by one the girls called his name and each time he ignored it. He loked up when the door opened it was CJ.
"Rory, your Mum wants you." Rory turned his body away from CJ and the door.
CJ sat down on the bed next to Rory "It still hurts doesn't it?" Rory nodded. "Listen Rory, I know I'm your geeky, unsuccesful older, loser of a cousin, but I want to help.
Rory rolled his head back against the bed, he sighed "I wish I had time to tell how much he meant to be. I wish that I could have stopped him from going and he could have spent his last hours with us. I wish, I just wish." Rory put his arms in the air in frustation "Its so hard to put what I feel into words. I'm not a writer like him. I hate this." he screwed his face up "Sometimes I feel so mad at him, just leaving us like this, making us fatherless, making Mum a widow. it's torn this family apart"
CJ slid down next to him
"Your Dad was a great man Rory. If he had the choice he never would have done this. He loves you too much to have intentionaly hurt you." CJ closed his eyes and two tears escaped from them "You know he was the only person to have faith in me. He always thought I had potential, to be something. That was one of the things that made him so great Rory." he looked at Rory "Now your Mum has some important news to tell you. She needs you as much as you need her" he got up and Rory stood up too and followed CJ out the room.
"CJ" he said, CJ turned around "Thanks" Rory said.
Bridget and Kerry were sitting in the lounge already, CJ and Rory joined them.
"Whats the news Mum?"
Kate ran a hand over her stomach "Remember ages ago I thought I was pregnant, and then the test came back negative?" Bridget nodded "Well it was wrong. I'm pregnant. And its Pau- Your Dads, I'm keeping it"
Tears poured down each of their faces as they slowly walked up to Kate and all hugged her. They all had to pull together to help her
Okay so she's keeping the baby. Now a challenge to all my reviewers shall the baby be a boy or a girl??????
