Chapter 2: Goodbye to You
It is now Thursday. Everyone just arrived in Loudonville at the new house. The first thing Summer did when they got there was run into the bathroom. Seth leaned up against the door and heard her vomiting.
"Sum, are you okay? You have been throwing up half of the trip and before we left," Seth said as she walked out of the bathroom.
"Yeah I'm fine," she replied.
"You don't sound fine. You should find a doctor. I heard this street you live on is full of rich doctors."
"I heard that too. I'll find a doctor tomorrow."
"No, find one today, it's still early. You can probably get an appointment today."
"Okay, I can go find a doctor today. Will you come with me?"
"Of course. I want to spend every minute I can with you before I go back to Newport," he said as he enveloped her in a hug.
"I love you so much," she said into his chest.
"I love you too. Let's go look for a doctor." They walked out the door and got in the car. They found a doctor quickly, and Summer got right in. Seth sat in the waiting room for twenty minutes before Summer came back out.
"We can go now," she said as she grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the chair he was in.
"Okay, did they know what was wrong?"
"She said she would call me with the results of my tests."
"Okay, lets go get something to eat. I saw a cute little deli a few minutes away from here," he said wrapping his arm around her waist and walking out to the car.
"That sounds good." They were eating in the deli for a few minutes when Summer's cell phone started to ring. "Hello? ... this is Summer...okay, thank you." She hung up the phone.
"Was that the doctor?" Seth asked.
"Yeah, she got back my tests."
"Okay, what is wrong?" Seth asked grabbing her hand from across the table. He could tell it was something bad, she looked like she was in shock.
"I'm two months pregnant," she said as she started to cry. They were done eating, so Seth started to walk her outside. He pulled her into a hug and she began to sob.
"It's okay, baby," he said stroking her hair.
"I'm not supposed to be pregnant for a few more years. What am I going to do?" she asked through tears.
"It's okay. You can go back to Newport?"
"No, I don't want to face all those gossiping people. I want to stay here, but you need to go back to Newport. Don't tell anyone except your family and I'll tell Marissa."
"But I need to stay here and help you."
"No, my mom can help me. I don't want you to ruin your last year of high school. You can visit, and I'll call you everyday, and you can come stay with me for a while after the baby is born. We can make it work."
"I know we can. I just want to be with you and help you. I love you," he said sadly.
"I love you too. Let's go back to my house. We can tell my mom then move stuff into my new room."
"Okay, let's go," he said as he walked her over to the car. He got in the driver side of the car and drove to Summer's new house.
"Summer, there you are. Mom's been looking for you," Caroline said as they walked in the house.
"Okay, where is she? I need to talk to her," Summer replied.
"Hey, there you are, I was looking for you. Where did you go?" Elizabeth asked as she saw Summer.
"Mom, I need to talk to you," Summer said to her mother.
"Okay, what is it?"
"I'm pregnant," Summer replied and started to cry again. Seth pulled her into a hug again. Elizabeth walked over and took Summer out of Seth's arms and into her own.
"It's okay sweetheart. How did this happen. I mean I know how it happens, but I thought you would have been careful," she said trying to comfort Summer.
"We were careful, we always used protection. I guess it just didn't work."
"It's okay, I'll help you through this. You aren't considering abortion, are you?" she asked worriedly. "I know a lot of people your age get abortions."
"No, I want to keep it."
"Good, I don't like the thought of you getting an abortion."
"I know." Summer and Seth explained how Seth was going home, but would visit and help take care of the baby when it is born.
They unpacked Summer's stuff and went for a walk. Soon someone was walking up behind them. They both turned around to see a girl coming up to them. She looked seventeen. She had blonde hair that was down just past her shoulders. She had blue eyes and was wearing jean shorts and a pink t- shirt.
"Hi, I'm Stephanie. You must be the new neighbors," she said.
"I'm Summer and this is my boyfriend Seth," Summer said as she held out her hand to Stephanie. "I just moved into number 9, Seth is going back home in a few days."
"I live in number 8. Where are you from?" Stephanie asked.
"Newport Beach in California," Seth replied.
"Cool, are you going to Shaker?" Stephanie asked.
"Yeah, twelfth grade. How about you?" Summer replied.
"Same."
"Cool," Summer said as she looked at her watch, "Oh, we have to get back for dinner. Bye, Stephanie, it was nice meeting you. Hopefully we'll see you again tomorrow."
"Okay, see ya. Bye, Seth."
"Bye," Seth replied and they walked in different directions. "She was nice."
"Yeah, she was. I'll probably like hanging out with her. She seemed pretty nice," Summer said back.
A few days had passed and Summer had met a few of Stephanie's friends. They were all doing a play at the local college. Katelyn was Stephanie's best friend. She was a tiny girl. She was really skinny like Marissa. Summer hadn't talked to Marissa since before she left. The other people she met were Caitlin, Kristen, Lara, Taylor, Divia, Jessica and Chris (PC). They were all really nice. They were also really supportive of Summer when they found out she was pregnant.
Today was Sunday, and that meant Seth was leaving. His flight was in twenty minutes. Seth and Summer were standing at the gate, Summer wrapped in Seth's arms crying a little. They had been standing like that for fifteen minutes. Seth's flight had just begun boarding, and his row was called.
"I'm gonna miss you so much," Seth said.
"I'm gonna miss you too," Summer said.
"I'll call you everyday, and I'll come back to visit in a few weeks. I love you."
"I love you too," Summer said back. Seth leaned down and kissed her passionately. When he broke away he rubbed her stomach, which was not getting any bigger yet, but she was only eight weeks pregnant. They called his row again. He kissed her one more time. "Bye, baby," he said to Summer.
"Bye, I love you. Call me when you get home or after you tell your parents. I'm gonna call Marissa when I get home."
"Okay, I love you too." He walked onto the plane and Summer stood there looking out the window and crying until his plane left.
Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by
I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing
are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where
I am blinded by the light
But it's not right
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours
and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star
