Hey Readers! So, at the time I am writing this, I have had one review, and, I would like to thank 21Peach for reviewing! It may be my only review so far, but it was a positive one that made me feel awesome! So, here is another installment of Avalon High- A New Chapter!
I do not own Avalon High
The Next Day- Will POV
The last few hours this past night have been rough. All Allie and I did was sit and cry, then we would sit in silence. Finally, around eleven, we decided that I was going to stay so that neither of us had to be alone.
Carrying Allie up to her room, I couldn't help but think that this is all my fault. I ruined her life, I took away all the possibilities that she could have had in life. It is completely and utterly all my fault.
"It's not your fault you know, so stop thinking that,"
Allie's voice chirped into my ears. A small, minescule smile appeared across my lips. How she always knew what I was thinking amazed me. Everytime.
"But Allie, if I had used a condom, this wouldn't have,"
"It would have happened no matter what saw the profecy. This was set in stone along time before we were even thought of. Even if we did use protection, it wouldn't have mattered, the baby was coming no matter what," Allile seemed to be calming down, how, I don't know.
"I know, but I just can't help it," My heart hurt a little less after hearing her say what she said, but, I did this to her. I helped crate the human growing inside of her. I helped her become and unwed, teenage mother. Who wouldn't feel guilty.
Sighing, I kicked open the door to her room and placed her down on the bed.
"Aren't you going to join me?" The hurt and confusion on why I was still standing was evident in Allie's voice.
"In a second, I'm just putting on a t-shirt and different boxers before bed,"
It was safe to say Allie and I haven't had many sleepovers, and,well, we're still etting used to sleeping in the same room.
Hopping into bed, I snuggled down next to Allie, who was content staying wrapped up in my arms.
"Will," Allie broke the silence.
Turning to face her, I slid down in bed so that we were eye to eye.
"Yeah,"
"I'm scared.I mean, what are we going to do? We're seventeen, still in high school, people are after us all the time because of the order,plus, we dont have anyhting we need to be able to support a baby. I mean, babies take up space, Sure, there's an extra room at your house, but, we can't burden your dad and Jean like that. Plus Lia and Marco are at home and the baby would wake them at all hours of the night, and," I cut Allie off.
"Allie, believe me, I am scared too. Being seventeen and still in high school,well, we can't do anything about that except wait to graduate,but the whole not having what we need to support the baby and not having space, I think I have a solution to that,"
Allie looked at me oddly.
"A plan, , what is this 'plan'?"
I smiled at her sarcasm. Its one of the many things that I love about her.
"Well, when my mother died, she left me all the money she had inherrited from her family in a trust. I am only allowed to retrieve it upon either when I turn thirty, or, upon the conception of my first child,"
Allie looked at me with blank eyes. Just like most times, I couldn't tell what she was thinking.
"So,what you are saying is that everything is taken care of?" Tears threatened to flow out of Allie's beautiful green eyes.
"Allie, never, will I ever, and I mean never, let you go un taken care of. You,and now this baby, are my world. I love you both too much to ever let anything happen,"
I pulled Allie close and put her head under my chin, my hands finding their way to her stomach. While this baby had not been planned, that doesnt mean that it will go unloved.
"I just,I had just made my plan, go to Maryland State in next fall with you and everybody else,get married,then maybe a baby or two. A baby at seventeen,I just, I don't know how I can do it Will! I'm Arthur,but, how am I supposed to do both jobs well? I can't just decide not to be King Arthur anymore, I just,how am I going to be a good mom?"
Tears just swam down Allie's face as she started to sob,and, the only thing I could do was hold her tight and tell her that everything will be okay.
"No, everything will not be okay! This baby, I can't focus on everything and raise him or her right,I just, I can't, I don't, what are we going to do?"
I felt Allie's body rake with sobs and I could feel my shirt getting damp with her tears, and, soo, my own.
"We're going to do the best job that we can do with our baby Allie. We're going to love our baby more than anybody has ever loved any baby ever,"
"Will,"
Allie interrupted me.
"Will,what, what if we can't protect the baby? I mean, there are more bad people out there besides Mordrid, what if somebody comes for the baby? Will, we can't let anything happen, I just, what if we can't protect the baby? I couldn't live with myself if anything happened, I just couldn't,"
Allie's tears resumed and I cried along with her, fear overcomming me and worry following as I thought about how I would keep Allie and my baby safe, no matter it that meant me dying or not.
As the tears continued leaking out of our eyes, Aliie and I both could feel sleep overcomming us, our eyelids closed, comming together and stying shut until morning.
The Next Morning
I snuck out of Allie's house ealier, she was still sound asleep. I left a note on her pillow,letting her know where I am,but, I didn't expect her for a few more hours.
Looking into the sky from my spot on the dock, I couldn't imagine anything being more beautiful,more calm. The irony, everything being calm out here, in my surroundings,when, my inner thoughts were nothing but chaos and confusion.
"You never came home,"
Marco's voice pulled my eyes from the skyline. Standing and turning to face him, I burst into tears,feeling like such a belittled man.
"Woah, bro, what's going on?"
I was a pile of sobs and nothing more as I took everything horrible anout my situation,every worry and fear comming to the surface.
"Allie...therer was a prediction...she...there was nothing either of us could do to prevent is...I'm going to be...she's...Allie's pregnant,and, the baby, people are going to want it, Marco,I'm so scared,"
I felt Marco's arms bring me in for a hug only brothers coudl share, and, in that moment, I felt that if some way, I will be okay, and Allie, and, even our baby.
