I Only Do This For You Chapter 3
I got up after a few minutes and unrolled the sleeping bag I put the tattered grey and blue teddy inside it safe. I put the picture frames on the ground I sighed deeply as I looked at the one ofI need you more then anything now I thought but I’m never gonna meet you now I then looked at the one ofand I and I’ll miss the chats we shared every night in my room before we went to bed… __ The doorbell rang that evening just after school was out “Could you get that” my mum shouted from the shower room I got up from my seat and opened the door and saw ,’s best friend stood there “Heysmiled “Hi” I smiled back “wasn’t at school today I wondered how she was” said I looked down as a tear escaped my eye “Hey what’s the matter”said putting a hand on my shoulder “She told mum and dad she was pregnant dad threw her out! I said struggling to hold back tears “Oh no”said and pulled me into a hug “Do you know where she is?”asked I nodded “In the park living on a park bench the one covered with brambles and bushes” I replied “I’m going to go and see her”said and I nodded “I can’t go and see her at the moment” I saidunderstood and left I sighed as I went upstairs “Who was that?” mum asked coming out of the shower room “” I said quietly and walked off into my room “love you know I hate this but I can’t go against what your father says” Mum said coming into my room “Fine just letlive on the streets where she’ll probably die young just like Toby” I said in a nasty tone “” Mum said trying to hug me I pushed her away “Get away from me I hate you and I hate dad you pushed not only my sister but my best friend away too” I yelled pushing mum out of my room and slamming the door in her face… I went into’s room that night and sat on her bed where I usually would when we had out nightly chats I took hold of the tattered grey and pink bear I'd noticed she’d taken the blue one which was Toby’s but not her own I hugged it tightly and cried tonight I wouldn’t be able to have that chat with her about anything I’d talk about Ruben if he’d e-mailed or wrote me a letter that day or Linzi would talk endlessly aboutgod did she love that guy I laughed to myself as I though of her face a big smile on her face her eyes all lit up like a thousand candles in an empty dark room when she spoke of him and also the chats where she’d give me advice on anything I'd confide everything in her and she would with me I remember the night she told me she was pregnant it was the night before she told mum and dad… *** “Something on your mind?” I asked noticing she was being a bit quiet and reserved tonight “can I tell you something” she said as she hugged Toby’s bear “Of course you can tell me anything” I replied and she took a deep breathe “I’m pregnant” she came out with it shocked me “When? How?” I said not knowing what to ask “That house party I went to about a month ago I got drunk and slept with some guy thereit was awful I never wanted my first time to be like that and now because I was too drunk to fully take in everything I’m left with an un-wanted pregnancy” she cried as I hugged her “What you going to do?” I asked her carefully “I can’t get rid of it you know I’m against abortion” she replied I had the same views as her on abortion it was wrong killing something innocent “Mum and dad are gonna go mental” I said and she sighed knowing I was right “I’ll tell them tomorrow I just had to tell you first well second I toldfirst she was with me when I did the test”said “Good luck” I said wiping a few of her tears away*** I sighed and got up from her bed looking around it I felt a chill down my spine this wasn’t right she should be here in this room laughing away like she normally did and dancing and singing along to her music I left the room and went o my own climbing into my bed I still had hold of her Teddy bear I wasn’t going to let it go I closed my eyes and tried to sleep after a few hours of tossing and turning I eventually fell into dream land… To Be Continued...
