Chapter 35

The rest of the trip was pretty fun. But the next day we flew home due to Adrian's grandmother being sick.

I didn't wanna be the person who stopped him from seeing his grandmother. What if she died and I made him stay in Georgia with me?

I couldn't be that selfish. So as his friend, and now his girlfriend. I allowed him to go back home. And of course, as the supporting and loving girlfriend, I am, even though I don't want to go home at all. I still will follow him.

He has helped me so much these last few weeks, and I don't even think I will ever be able to repay him.

"Seems like we are here," Adrian said as he pulled up to his house in his car.

"So what now?" I asked him. We haven't really discussed what was going to happen. I needed a place to stay. But I knew Adrian didn't have any room in his house due to his parents taking in his grandmother to take care of her.

"I have no idea. I can get you a hotel room." Adrian offered but I politely declined.

"You have done enough. I don't even know how to thank you." I said.

"I would do anything for you, Melissa. I told you this. Here." Adrian said handing me his credit card.

"I can't take this Adrian. Don't worry about me, I'll probably go stay with some friends." I said.

"You're my girlfriend, I'm supposed to worry about you," Adrian mentioned. He was right, but it isn't his job to take care of me.

I smiled and kissed his cheek.

"For the last time. Don't worry about me. My cousin lives about 20 minutes from here. Her name is Millie. She probably wouldn't mind if I crashed at her place." I said.

"Fine. But if something doesn't work out. Don't hesitate to call me." Adrian said and I nodded.

"Do you need a ride? I don't mind." Adrian said.

"No, I need to go home first. I still need to get some stuff from there. But I also think I should try and talk to my parents. See if they will come around. But when I say my parents, I really mean my mom. But I still am mad at my dad." I said.

"Don't be mad at your parents Melissa. They are probably just scared. I know you lost the baby. But they still lost a grandchild even if they knew about it or not. Remember a few years ago my mother had a miscarriage? We only knew about the poor baby for about 2 weeks then my mother lost the baby. Even though we only knew about it for 2 weeks, it still took a huge part out of all of us. I lost a baby brother or sister. My parents lost a child. And my grandparents lost a grandchild. Which they so desperately waned. But your parents are probably also worried and concerned why the hell you had sex at 19. Even though it's really not a huge deal to us." Adrian said.

He's right.

"Thanks, Adrian," I said getting out of the car.

"Keep me updated." Adrian called out as I started to walk home.

As soon as I arrived at my house, I saw that both of my parent's cars were here.

I walked into the house and heard talking from the kitchen.

"Did you hear the door open?" my mother said.

"No. You are probably just hearing things." My father said.

"No, you aren't," I said walking into the kitchen. My mother turned to me and in shock she dropped the plate that she was holding. The contents of the plate dropped to the floor. The plate was shattered.

Good job mom...

"You're back." She said.

"Yeah. I went away with Adrian for a bit." I said.

"Not surprising." my father said.

"And what is that suppose to mean?" I asked him.

"Well in a month don't come to me when you are pregnant. I don't want you around him anymore." My father said.

"HOney don't say that. Adrian really likes her. They are best friends. It was a simple mistake." my mother said.

"A SIMPLE MISTAKE! He had sex with our daughter! Got her pregnant! And then she ended up losing it! That is not a simple mistake!" my father yelled.

"Dad please calm down," I said.

"Look, please just stay away from him." my father said.

"I can't," I said.

"And why is that?" My father asked.

"Cause he is my boyfriend," I said.

"Great. Just great. Don't come crying to me when you get pregnant again and he leaves you."My father said getting up and leaving.

"Don't listen to him. And I would like to apologize for everything I said. I didn't mean it. I really love you, Melissa. And I just want what is best for you." My mom said and I hugged her.

"I love you," I said.

"I love you too." She said back.

2 HOURS LATER

As I laid on my bed, I texted Adrian.

Melissa - I decided to stay home. My mom is happy I am back but my father is being an ass

Adrian - sorry about your dad, but that's good that you and your mother made up. why is your dad mad?

Melissa - he thinks that I am going to get pregnant again

Adrian - did you tell him we are dating?

Melissa - yeah and that probably didn't help the situation

Adrian - true.

Melissa - wanna come over?

Adrian - yeah, I'll be over in a few. xoxo :)

Melissa - xoxo see you soon
