When Kyle left, my mom called me over to her. "How you doing, kid? You look kinda pale," She said, feeling my forehead.
"I feel fine, mom. Just tired," I explained, backing away from her hand.
"Whoa! Have you been eating pickle and peanut butter sandwiches?"
"No..." I lied, knowing she was suspicious. "I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch and a pickle after..."
"Oh my god, you did, didn't you? And you've been having mood swings recently!"
"You haven't been around recently, so how would you know?" I yelled.
"Well, since I've been here you've cried, screamed, and you've been happy. Mood swings."
"What's your point, mom? I've been stressed lately," I explained, walking across the room towards Micheal.
My mom gasped. "Oh my god... Your pregnant aren't you?"
Stopped in midstep and turned. "Do you have some sort of radar or something? God!"
"You are... OH GOD! Say it! Tell me; I have to hear it from your mouth! SAY IT GOD DAMMIT!"
"Fine! I'm pregnant!" I said walking over to her.
"Whose baby is it? Who got you pregnant?"
"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" I screamed. " ARE YOU REALLY TRYING TO ACCUSE ME OF BEING A WHORE?"
"MARIA! Just answer me!"
MICHEAL! I am pregnant with MICHEAL'S child!" I screamed.
"Why didn't you at least use a condom, Maria? I thought you had more sense than that!"
"Oh didn't I tell you, they don't sell condoms that big!" I screamed and everyone was silent.
"Don't be a smart ass, Maria!"
"Who is being a smart ass? They really don't," I said, losing control of what I was saying.
"How long have you known?" She seemed as though she would blow at any second.
"I've known for less than a week. I wanted to tell you, but I didn't know how," I said and as angry as I was, I got all teary eyed.
"If you keep that baby-"
WHEN I keep this baby. I'm NOT giving it up," I interupted.
"Fine. You are out of my house as of immediately!"
"What a hypocryte! Sure go ahead and become your MOTHER!"
"What are you talking about?"
"You be your mother and kick me out and I'll be my mother and raise my child as best I can. Except I will be there for my child instead of hiding behind my age! And I'll have a father for my child before it's too late for it to know what a father is!" I screamed and stormed out of the resturant.
I started walking towards my mother's house to grab my things. I was furious. She never saw things my way; it was always 'do as I say, not as I do' with her! I stopped and sat on a bench at the park. I had to think.
I knew Micheal would be there for me and the baby for the rest of our lives; he was just that kind of person. But I was finally realising that I was going to be out on my own. I was without a mother and I was pregnant; with an alien baby, no less.
"Maria? Are you okay, baby?" I looked up, startled. Micheal was rubbing my back and I was crying.
"I'm so confused, Micheal!" I cried and he sat down and pulled me into his lap. "And scared," I mumbled into his neck.
"Shh. Shh. I'm here, baby, I'm here. Let it out, Ria," he whispered in my ear and kissed the crown of my head as I cried. He rocked me back and forth.
Once I stopped crying, I looked up at him. "We're really alone in this now, huh Micheal?"
"Not completely alone. We have Isabel, Liz, Kyle, Max. The Parker's love you like their own. Valenti will have our backs. Everything will work out fine, Maria. You'll see," He said and kissed me gently. I smiled at him, earning a smile in return. "Lets get your stuff before they decide to go home," He said and lifted me to my feet.
We pack a bunch of bags filled with everything in my room (I couldn't part with any of it) and headed for our home. Our new home together.
We brought all the bags in, but didn't unpack. I found the bag with my pj's, which were mostly shirts I stole from Micheal, and put one on, slipping into the bed where Micheal already was. I snuggled up close, my head in the crook of his neck, kissed his bare chest and fell asleep to him rubbing my back.
