Mom did say a word until we got home, and for some reason, she pulled Aaron from school, and he was grinning the entire time.

As soon as the front door closed, mom began.

"Three days, you got suspended for three days! Why were you even fighting with Christina? I thought you two were friends?"

"They aren't anymore," Aaron laughed, which passed mom off even more.

"Aaron, why don't you go to your room? Mia and I have things to talk about."

"Before you get mad at her, just know that Christina deserved what happened to her. She wasn't a good friend to Mia."

Mom turned to look at me, and I nodded.

''What happened?" Mom asked.

"Well, you know how I used to complain that I had no friends? Turned out that was all because of Christina."

"What do you mean?" Mom asked.

"She lied to me and everyone at school, telling them how I thought I was better than them, and that's why I never talked to them. While she was basically telling me the same thing."

"How do you know all this?"

"Well, Aaron kind of

    ''Mia, hmm. Aaron has to leave soon, his mother is sick and is asking for him.''Mom said coming into my room and breaking the news. This was just like when she told me dad died, she just threw it out there and I just took the blow. I pretened that this was the first time knowing about this, because they haven't noticed that we had been getting closer over the last few weeks. ''That's sad, I hope she feels better.'' Mom was silent for a while. And I became lost in thought.I couldn’t believe it. I starting to fall in love with Aaron but we both are being ripped from each other because of a few selfish choices and acts. Deep down I hated his mother for being a drug addict, if not for her overdose that Aaron wouldn’t have to leave. And if not for Johnathan’s cheating, she wouldn’t be a drug addict. But these things were what set us up to meet, those events turned the wheels in our destiny. Even though our meeting was short, it was sweet and in the end I experienced true bliss. I

    Later that day, my phone buzzed with a message. It was a text from Aaron, well, it was a long message which I didn’t want to read because I just didn’t have the courage to.I wanted to forget about Aaron and the way he made me feel.It took me a few hours before I had the balls to click on the message and read the long words. It was a story about when he just came here, here he felt about me and how I saw someone he couldn’t have. He also wrote that he wished we could relive the time we spent together and make it better from the start.I reread the message several times and cried until my eyes were burning, I hated that I felt like this and thought that maybe if I hadn’t fallen for him I wouldn’t be feeling this way now.A week later, I woke up one morning feeling sick. I threw up and felt weak afterwards and just decided to skip school. I made sure to send a message to Ellie, letting her know that I was home sick and would miss cheer practice.She sent back winky face.I spent the re

    After our crying session, mom held me at arm’s length. ‘’Who… I want to know who the possible father of this child might be so we can have a little sit down with him and the parents.’’I knew she would ask this, any considered parent would, but how could I tell her that Aaron was the father? He was the only person I have ever had sex with.‘’Umm, can I talk to the person first?’’ I asked.‘’Ok,’’ mom nodded then patted my head, got up and walked away.I had to wait for Aaron to come from school, I dread telling him that I am pregnant because I have no idea how he would react to all this. We are both teenagers and about to be parents.He is from a broke home, I’m sure he wouldn’t want anything to do with this child.I heard Aaron’s door slamming, and my heart pounded in my chest. I took phone my phone and put it back down several times before building up the nerve and going to his room and knocking on the door.‘’Hey,’’ Aaron opened the door and smiled.‘’I… we need to talk.’’‘’Sure,

    I was pissed at mom because she never pressed charges at Johnathan, he hit her and beat the shit out of Aaron because he was an old drunk.I sat there in station, listening to her recall what happened, she lied for Johnathan to save that man and I didn’t know why. She didn’t tell them he was drunk, and when I tried to say something, she made it seem as if I was a problem.She even lied on Aaron, which was much worse. She made Aaron out to be a problem child and that he started the fight.I guess the officers saw through the lies, because they said a child could only act like that when there are problems at home and from the look of things, Johnathan was the one to have provoked Aaron.When we got home, I didn’t even say a word to my mother, I only went upstairs and cried.There was a knock and mom came in.‘’What do you want?’’ I asked, not able to contain my anger.“I’m sorry about what happened, I don’t think you will understand it, but I was only trying to protect Johnathan. I didn

    I guess you could say my life flew by in a breeze, because I’m now at Stanford University. I still finished at the top of my class and was able to get into the school of my dreams to follow my path and become a biologist.I didn’t talk to my mother that much anymore, well, we didn’t talk how we used to. She was still with Johnathan, and he was now an old drunk, his art business failed miserably and instead of kicking the man to the curb, she is there supporting his nasty lifestyle.As for me and Aaron, we didn’t talk anymore mostly because he wanted me to keep the baby and I was just not ready yet to be a mother. I was a child, and I don’t believe a child should raise another child.My mother didn’t want me to keep the baby either and if I had, I wouldn’t have been able to finish high school or be where I am now three years after.Aaron had contacted me only once since the day we both left high school. I think he was drunk when he sent me that message at two am. I was shocked that he

    When I entered the house, I saw a male and female in the living room sitting close to each other and having a hush conversation.They didn't seem to notice me, so I moved to the kitchen and saw mom sitting around the counter with a mug of tea before her.She was staring blankly at it and didn't realize me coming in."Mom?" I called, and she looked up.Her eyes were red and swollen from all the crying, she got up and I pulled he le into an embrace."Oh Mia, I'm so glad you are here.""Who are those people in the living room?" I asked.Mom scoffed. "Johnathan's kids.""What?""Yeah, he told me about them a year ago, I think. It was sudden, and I hated him for a while for not sharing this with me.""He had other kids?" I was still I shocked."He does. Apparently, in his wallet, there was a letter to say if anything should happen to him while he was out. They should call me and his kids. Our numbers and addresses were written. While I was identifying his body, they showed up."My hate for

    "I was engaged," I began, but Christina rudly cut me off."What do you mean was engaged?" She asked with a laugh.I ignored her. "Was name was Kirk, I met him when I just started college. He was older than me, just about to graduate, and I guess you can call it love at first sight. That's how I felt, and he felt the same because after six months of dating, he proposed to me."I sighed. "Sadly, he passed away a few weeks later." My voice cracked. "He was killed in a car accident. It was the day after Thanksgiving, and some drunk driver in an eighteen wheeler ran the stoplight. He and his friend died on the spot.""Then I met Henry the researcher a year after and thought that I could get back out there! But Henry never believed in my dreams. He put himself and his needs over me all the time!""We broke up because he got a job offer in England to do some sort of excavation. He accepted without me in mind and wanted me to drop out of school. When I refused to do that and make such a big m

    ‘’How did it go?’’ Jolie asked when I got back inside but I brushed past her.‘’Mia,’’ she grabbed at my hand, and I pushed her away.‘’Why don’t you go talk to Aaron yourself, and if you can’t get through to him, then maybe he just doesn’t want to open up to you.’’‘’What happened out there?’’I sighed, ‘’just leave me out of this. Please don’t get me involved in your life. That’s all I have to say.’’‘’Guys, we leave in a few minutes,’’ Cameron poked her head around the corner and spoke.I left Jolie standing there, I knew I shouldn’t be taking this out on her. Fuck it, if she hadn’t asked me to see if Aaron was ok, now of this would have happened. We could have avoided each other until it was time to leave, but she had to be the concerned girlfriend who couldn’t brave up and talk to her man herself.‘’Mia, can I have a word with you for a minute?’’ Jace called me over.I went into the kitchen with him, and he wasted no time.‘’I was talking to Sharon.

    Aaron's P.O.VI ran up to the receptionist, panicking because I never thought Mia would have gone into labor so early.We had at least week more weeks before the birth of our child, and I felt like a horrible person for not finishing with the room for my son.I was at work when I got several calls, all with mixed feelings over the birth of our child."Hey, Mia Armstrong-Boyd," I said to the lady sitting around the desk."Your relationship to Mrs. Boyd?""Your husband," I said.After hearing that, she quickly typed on her keyboard while I tapped impatiently on the desk."On the fifth floor, room 105. If you take the first elevator on your left, it will take you directly there."I rode the elevator up, and when the door opened. I was expecting to see the room right before me, but it was the nursery for new borns. "Excuse me, can you tell me where room 105 is?"The doctor looked up from his clipboard."All the way down the hall, second door on the right." He pointed with his pen."Thank

    Seven years later...***"I'm home!" I yelled.I walked to the living room with Aaron in tow, and now I saw why mom wasn't answering.She was busy setting up Christmas decorations. Hey mom," I said."Hey, sweetheart." She grunted out.Aaron placed his bag on the ground."Let me get that for you.""Such a sweet one," mom smiled, and the wrinkled around her eyes got more profound.I watched Aaron as he easily stapled the Christmas lights to the skirting of the ceiling.I still couldn't believe that after all these years, Aaron and I were still together.I did just like in my dream and moved to California and went to Stanford University, Aaron came with me and studied law.He was now a tax lawyer who hadn't failed any of his clients thus far.I was working at a food testing lab, which was an interesting field, and I didn't want to give up on that."Where's dad?" I asked."Out back, he's trying to chop wood.""Oh no," I said."I thought the same thing when he picked up the axe. Maybe you

    The party was going great for the most part, and I didn't know if it was history repeating itself, but a kid by the name of Tyler approached me, he didn't go to our school, else I would have remembered him.He tried to dance with me, when I refused, he called me a bitch and I walked away from him because I wasn't going to let someone I didn't know disrespect me.He followed behind me, and Stacy started to argue with him."What is your problem?"That got him to back off for a bit.I looked around, trying to find Aaron, I spotted him still playing dart with his friends.I placed my cup on the table and talked to my friends.By the time I could talk up my cup and put it to my lips, there Aaron is, slapping it out of my hand."Aaron!" I said.He didn't respond. Instead, he was fighting with Tyler. Punching him in the face and when he fell on the ground, Aaron kicked him in the stomach.I grabbed a hold of Aaron, and he stopped."What are you doing?""I had to teach this little pussy a les

    By the end of the school week, rumors had spread around that Aaron and I were a thing. Mostly because they saw us hanging out all the time, but honestly, we never discussed that.I stood at Tasha's locker, laughing at her antics."Hey," Aaron said as he came up to see.Tasha waved at him, but the skeleton she had been hiding in her locker fell out, and that got me laughing all over again.Aaron was in full football gear, ready for practice and the big game tomorrow. "So, there is this romor that we are dating.''I froze up."I want to make those rumors true. That's if you are cool with that.""I... ye... we...""What she means is yes," Tasha cut in as I babbled on."Awesome," Aaron bent down and gave me a kiss on the cheek.When he walked away, Tasha and I squealed and jumped up and down."Oh my God, this is so amazing," she said.It was, I felt so happy, and maybe, just maybe Aaron and I could get engaged and have that happy life I saw in my dream."Are you going to the game tomorro

    Saturday, I was at the mall with Tasha in a comic book store looking for new mangas. Then I suddenly remembered when Aaron had said , 'we have a lot in common.'I wondered if he felt that way even now.And as if on cue, the doorbell rang, and in he walked.I tried my best not to follow him, but as faith would have it, we bumped into each other."Sorry," I said, and he walked on without a word.I should really accept reality. We will never be together.I doubled back for a comic I saw, and when I got there, Aaron came up at the same time.Our hands touched, and I swore I felt a spark, but I guess it was just me because he didn't seem to have the same reaction I did."Sorry," I said, and again, no response.But what did I expect? After paying, I hurried out the shop and left Tasha there so I could catch my breath.While standing there, a thought came to me.When Tasha came out, I grabbed her hand."Let's go to Madison Park."She frowned. "That's a three hour drive, and we are supposed

    By lunchtime, there was a protest around the school to stop animal dissecting at our school."They were only frogs!" Mr. White yelled while walking down the hall.But the protest was put to an end quickly, as soon as the principal threatened to suspend everyone involved, they all scrambled."Well, that was exciting," Tasha said."Beth kind a does have a point," I said. "As much as I am into all this, cutting open an animal was still... disturbing."On our walk to the cafeteria, we walked by Aaron, and I looked back at him to see him staring at me.Was he smiling at me?At that moment, I wondered if he had the same dream as me.He slammed his locker shut, and that dragged me out of my reverie.Tasha and I sat with our other friends, and we talked about the latest anime episodes we had seen over the weekend.Yes, this was what I was used to. Not me just sitting by myself in a room full of people and not able to express myself because people found animes weird.I felt eyes on me, when I

    Olivia pulled me to the side."Can you help me get the salad?" She asked.I know that it didn't take two people to get the salad, but I knew something like this was coming. Call me inside just to tell me to stay away from her son.Better yet, she would cusre me out and tell me that I was just like my mother.Mom stole Johnathan from her, and I stole Aaron from Jolie."Mia, thank you for doing this." She pulled me into a hug.Ok, that wasn't expected."Uh, doing what?""Helping my little Aaron.""You're welcome..." I was confused. "I know he might not tell you this, and it shouldn't be my place to say. But you saved him.""I did?"She smiled. "Aaron had a rude childhood, and I'm to be blamed for that, before coming to live in Seattle, he was on suicide watch and I had beg Johnathan to take him so he could have better upbringing, but I guess it was too late."Olivia shuffled a few things around in the fridge before taking out the potato salad."Then one day he called me and said that

    "Jolie, you told me you understand, so why are you doing this now?" I could hear Aaron saying.I stayed hidden behind the wall so I could hear what they had to say to each other."I do, I did. But seeing you now with her, I just can't. And you are being engaged now. It's too much, Aaron.""Why did you even come? Sharon must have told you what she was planning.""She did, I came because I wanted to prove to myself that we are really done. I thought I could handle it."Aaron made a sound."Aaron, you have to see how fucked up this is, you can't possibly go through with marrying her."Aaron gave a laugh. "And I should marry you?""We love each other, and she is your stepsister."There was a pause, and I feared Aaron was contemplating her words."Jolie, honestly. Even if I were to leave Mia, I would never come back to you. We were never meant for each other."I wished I could see the look on her face as he said that."What are you saying?""With Mia, I can be myself. With you, I had to ki

    "Mom is asking if we could spend Christmas we her," I said, walking out to the balcony where Aaron was sipping coffee and looking out at the ocean."Sure, that would be nice."I wrapped my arms around his waist and kissed his back.This might just be the happiest I have ever been.After graduating from university, Aaron and I moved into a place close to the sea, which blessed us with beautiful sunsets and sunrises.And occasionally, whales.I could see that he was happy as well. He did a lot more smiling and opened up more to me about things that bothered him.I didn't want to say that he was following in Johnathan’s footsteps, but he was thinking of starting his own art gallery, and I would support him all the way."How is your mom doing?" I asked."Still not talking to me."I leaned my head on his shoulder, still blaming myself for the now shitty relationship he now had with his mom."Stop doing that," Aaron said."Do what?""You are blaming yourself again."How could he possibly kno
