Teddy and DAAANCE!!!! 2.0 #8

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Cristi snorted. "You're so demanding, you know that?" she said, rolling her eyes. "No wonder I was drunk when I slept with you. Any sane person would have to be in order to get past that dictator attitude of yours." She waved her hand in the air as if shooing a fly, but sighed when Andrew asked for her number. Rambling it off in a bored tone, she glanced at the clock again. "Well, as fun as this was, I really should be going." she said sarcastically, already turning on her heels. "See you tomorrow, Mr. Dictator." And with that, she was gone, sashaying down the hallway, that attitude that she owned the building still in place.

(See, this is why I typically don't do female charas, because they always turn out like whiney b*tches, and I hate that. But with an rp like this, I can put that curse to work. XP)

Andrew

I said nothing as Cristi talked a bunch of crap that I didn't care about, only caring about her number as I put it into my phone. I saved it and watched as she walked away, glad that he was finally gone. Now, i had to get back in before anyone knew that I had talked to her. Looking around quickly, I headed back inside, tense.

(( Haha, it's okay xD When I play girls, they turn out either bada** or shy. ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Haha, at least your female charas turn out decent. Mine? Nope. > . > Annnd quick question: Should we skip to the end of the day, where Annie and Braiden are at their lockers, and Annie tries to get Braiden to talk to him. But then Braiden snaps at him, because he had seen Annie with Cristi? Ooor, should we skip to the next day, where Braiden sees the two talking after school, and he also remembered seeing them the day before?)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( Mhhhh...how about the next day? (: ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Alright. ^ ^ Should I start with Cristi walking up, then, and Braiden seeing her approach Annie?)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( Yup! ^^ ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(AHHHHHHH! I died again. . - .)

Braiden

The shrill scream of the bell sounded the end of the school day, and I sighed, picking up my stuff and heading to my locker. Before, I would have been spending my free time with...him. But now, I just either walked to the library or locked myself in my bedroom until my hateful brother demands I open it for him, so he could start right in with his insults. Today, I might consider sleeping in the library.
However, my thoughts were interrupted as a girl with a vaguely familiar face stalked in, brushing past me and nearly knocking me over as she stormed...
Right up to his locker.

"Annnndreeew." Cristi sighed theatrically, completely ignoring the boy's request about being subtle when walking into the school. "I'm here, though I can't remember why exactly I'm visiting this shit-hole of a school miles away."

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( You died again? Lol ))

Andrew

As the last bell rang, I was happy to have finally gotten out of the classroom. Classes now-a-days just felt so...claustrophobic to me, like I was chained in or something like that. I was the first one out the classroom door and I went to my locker, just getting it open when I heard Cristi's annoying voice.
" Would it kill you to be, oh, I don't know, less annoying when you come here? People already hate me and avoid me here, what will they start thinking now that I've got some annoying thing coming here day in and day out," I said to her, clearly annoyed as I glared at her. What part of being quiet when she came here did she not seem to understand?

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Haha, meaning I went 'poof' for a while yet again. Meh. :/)

Cristi pouted, crossing her arms over her chest. "Well, maybe people hate you because you're an ass." she retorted snobbishly, lifting her nose in the air in disdain. "Trust me, I wouldn't come here if I didn't have to. And if you find 'charismatic' to be annoying, then you've got some serious problems, bub."

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( It's okay (: I was gone for about a week as well. ))

Andrew

Looking over at Cristi, I raised an eyebrow at her, shaking my head after a moment and getting out the books I needed to take home.
" I must have been really f*cking drunk to screw something as annoying as you," I replied to her, shutting my locker door and putting the lock back on it before facing her once again.

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Yeeeaaah, but you don't disappear as often as I have this year. Meh. . _ .)

Cristi's eyes widened, and she huffed, tossing her hair over her shoulder in disdain. "Right back at ya, honey." she snipped. "I don't suppose you have any 'master plans' at the moment, do you, genius? I'd hate to have drove all the way here for nothing. Oh, wait. I did."

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( It's okay, you were just more busy than I was I suppose. ))

Andrew

" Oh just shut up and come with me," I said to her, placing my hand on her lower back and gently nudging her forward, wanting her to walk in front of me. As I looked up, I noticed someone looking at us. Curiously, I got a better look and my eyes widened.
Braiden.
I quickly looked away however, not wanting to catch his eyes for too long. He already knew that I had seen him anyways.

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Ahhh...Yeah, there is that. But mostly it feels as though I've lost my mojo. :/ But I'm determined to get it back, damnit. o ^ o)

Cristi stuck out her lower lip in a pout. "You certainly know how to speak to a young lady, don't you?" she snarked, allowing Andrew to steer her towards the entrance of the school. "Where exactly are you taking me?" she demanded, oblivious to his diverted attention. In her head, everybody devoted 100% attention to her, 24/7, no matter who you were.

Braiden

I tried not to stay longer than I had to. I tried to just get my stuff and get the hell out of Dodge. But I felt myself trapped, frozen in place, staring at that chick and Andrew talking. I didn't hear what they were saying, I didn't notice how obviously annoyed he was. All I felt was icy pain stabbing me in the chest, over and over, making it hard to breathe. When Andrew placed his hand at the small of her back, such a seemingly intimate gesture, I bit my bottom lip, hard. He glanced over at me then, eyes widening briefly before looking away, and that was it. Shoving books into my locker and taking books out, I slammed the door, hurrying off in the opposite direction, all the while trying to fight back the burning at the backs of my eyes. Two weeks. It had only been two weeks since what happened between us, and he had already moved on to some...some...tramp! I couldn't decide if it hurt more how quickly he had moved on while it still felt as though a piece of my heart was still missing, or the fact that he was now with a girl. But then it hit me, so fast, so hard, that I stumbled slightly, leaning against the wall. The vague familiarity of the girl when she brushed past me, the way those two acted as though they had already known each other, how quickly he had moved on...
It was the girl from the picture. The girl he had slept with.
Placing a hand over my mouth to stiffle the sound of a sob, I hurried out of the school, not even paying attention to where I was going. I just wanted to get away from the pain, the betrayel, the heartbreak.
I just wanted to get away from him.

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( Haha, I've been gone for at least a week, that's for sure ^^; I'm trying to reply to EVERYONE now! And if I can get back into it, you can too! Lol ))

Andrew

" How about it's a surprise?" I asked the Cristi, taking my hand off her lower back, since she was walking now. Sighing softly, I was curious about something." Have you told your parents yet? About...you know..." I, for one, had not told my adoptive parents. I had no idea what they would do to me after that, probably send me back to the adoption home or something.

(( Aw...Braiden T.T I feel bad lol And also, sorry so short ^^; ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Haha, same here. I'm catching up, slowly but surely. XP And haha, I hope so! XD)

Cristi glanced back at Andrew, frowning and narrowing her eyes. "The last 'surprise' I received from you was when I found out I was expecting. So you can imagine my excitement right now." At his question about whether or not her parents knew, she snorted rolling her eyes. "Please. The minute my parents find out I'm preggers, they'll try to ship me off to a 'reforming' camp or something." she replied drily. Then thought about it for a few moments. "Okay, maybe not that extreme, but you get what I mean. So no. I have not told them, and I'm not planning to anytime soon."

(I know! Sad Braiden makes Dance sad. :( And it's not going to end there, rest assured. +Evil smirk and laughter+ And no problem. Mine's short as well, because I didn't really know what to make Braiden do at the moment except probably cry, so...I just kind of left his POV off for the time being. > . <')

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( You can do it! xD ))

Andrew

I rolled my eyes at what she first said, but when she spoke about her parents, I quieted down. It came to my realization last night that I had probably ruined this girls life, I hadn't meant to, sure, but I probably did. Her parents will be angry, all of he friends, if she had any, will probably start to think she's a whore, whatever school she goes to, she might start getting picked on. Sighing heavily, I looked over at her and ran my fingers through her hair.
" Yeah, I know what you mean about your parents...," I said to her in a soft voice, letting my hand fall back to my side.

(( Lol xD You are going to put me through so many feels ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Haha. I'll just have to channel my inner Thomas and keep saying "I think I can! I think I can!" XD)

Cristi started a little in surprise when she felt a hand run itself gently through her hair, and she glanced up at Andrew with a raised brow. "Uh...Okay..." she mused, mainly to herself. Clearing her throat, she flipped her hair over her shoulder. "So, I take it you haven't told your parents you got some girl knocked up while drunk at a party?" she asked, though by the soft snort that followed her question, she already knew the answer.

(Ahaha, don't I always? ;P)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( Indeed you do! Just keep that in mind and you'll be fine xD ))

Andrew

I knew that I shouldn't have done that, but I couldn't help myself. At that moment, I felt bad for her. I hadn't meant for this.
" No, they don't have any idea. If they did, they'd probably put me back in the adoption house for someone else to deal with me," I replied to her, getting to the doors of the school. I held the door open for her before stepping out myself.

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Haha, alright, I'll try. XD)

Cristi gave Andrew a sideways look at his response, stepping out of the school building without so much as a 'thank you' when Andrew held the door. "Adoption house? So what, parents ditch you or something when you were a baby?" she asked, not even trying to be gentle with Andrew's feelings. "No wonder you don't want me to get rid of the little brat when it's born."

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

" Well, I suppose that you could say that. They were in a car crash a few weeks after I was born, they drowned," I replied to Cristi, not actually minding that she was being rude. I had no emotional connections to my parents, I don't remember one thing about them at all. They are strangers to me...

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Even Cristi had to look a little sheepish at that one. "Oh..." she murmured, blushing slightly at such the mistake she had made. "Um...I'm...sorry to hear that, I guess..."

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

" No, it's fine, I don't care. I don't have any emotional attachments to them, I don't even know me. They just gave birth to me, my adoptive parents and....someone else....were the ones to take care of me," I replied to her, thinking about Braiden right away. He was the one that made me who I was today, not my parents or my adoptive parents. Him. It was always him. But now he was out of my life forever.

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Cristi shot Andrew yet another sideways look, frowning. "That explains a lot." she muttered. Louder, she asked, "Who's this someone else? You were being kind of vague there, so do you like, hate them now or something?"

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

" I don't hate him...I love him....He's the one that hates me," I replied to her, sighing heavily and looking at the sky," He was my boyfriend for a few years, my best friend before that. He figured out that I slept with you and he broke up with me."

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Cristi's eyes widened slightly, and she sighed heavily. "Of course." she muttered under her breath. "I had to sleep with a guy who's also into other dudes. Swell." Glancing back at Andrew, she couldn't help but snicker meanly. "Well, it was only a matter of time, anyways. But look on the bright side: at least your little boyfriend-oops, sorry, exboyfriend-will probably find somebody else who will actually make them happy."


(I feel so mean right now. ; A ;)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

Okay. Her words pissed me off. I stopped walking and turned to look at her, his eyes glaring at her.
" And maybe someday, you'll find a guy that doesn;t think that your a whore once he found out that you had a kid at 16!" I snapped at her, turning and continued to walk, but this time I didn't walk with her. I didn't even care if she followed me, I wasn't sure that I wanted her to. Even though I knew her words were true...

(( Awww, Cristi...that was mean T.T lol ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Cristi's eyes widened at Andrew's remark before narrowing angrily. Balling up her fists, she stormed after him. "May I need to remind you that I still have the option to get rid of it?" she snapped, face getting slightly red. "The only reason I haven't yet is because a certain someone told me not to. So don't you get all high and mighty on me for just calling it as I see it, you pr*ck. It's not like I asked to get pregnant." Her voice shook and broke slightly at that, betraying a little at how scared she really was about the situation at hand. But, stubborn as she was, she crossed her arms over her chest, pouting in frustration and falling silent, not wanting to betray her emotions any more than she already had. Especially not to Andrew.

(I knoooow! DX I swear it's like my life's mission to make my female characters the worst people ever. Even I'm sitting here like, "Annie makes Braiden happy, you b*tch! He's just angry. F*ck you!" And I'm the one who made her say it in the first place. > . <' It's clear I just have issues. o . o)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

When I heard Cristi's voice break, even though it was only slightly, I stopped walking, breathing heavily. I just wanted to cry, man how I just wanted to cry. Already feeling the tears begin to well up in my eyes, I did not turn to face her.
" And I'm glad that your keeping it, because like we've destroyed each others, you'd only be destroying his or her life. You need to think about that, do you want to kill another human being, before it even gets to see the outside world?" I replied to her, taking a shuddering breath," I'm sorry for what I said...How about this, I won't ever say what I just said again, as long as you don't say anything like that about my ex aga-." And folks, there were the waterworks. Tears fell down my cheeks and I put my hand over my mouth, covering any sob that would have leaked it's way out. This was so humiliating. Not only in public, but to Cristi?

(( I have to say things like that too, and it's sucks. And I always disagree with my characters words after i type them! T.T xD ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Cristi's eyes widened at Andrew's speech, and she opened her mouth to make yet another catty comment when the boy in front of her finally broke. Okay, Cristi could be a major b with an itch 99% of the time, but she did feel bad whenever somebody started crying, especially if it was mainly her fault. Running a hand through her hair awkwardly and casting looks around them, she let out a soft sigh, gently taking ahold of one of Andrew's wrists. "Come on." she murmured, tugging the boy near the back of the school, where there were a lot less people around to see Andrew's breakdown. Letting go of his wrist, she crossed her arms over her chest and averted her gaze. "Fine." she said after several long moments. "Fine. You win. I'm sorry for mentioning your ex, and I promise I won't mention him again, or get rid of the baby. I'm not entirely thrilled about it, but you're right when you say I don't really want to snuff out a life before it's even begun. So...You're right." She suddenly puffed out her cheeks. "But don't expect me to say that ever again!" she said, trying to recover some of her earlier snarkiness, though her tone was definitely softer than earlier. What? Cristi wasn't completely heartless.

(Haha, glad I'm not the only one. XD)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

Even though the last thing that I wanted to be doing right now was cry, especially in front of this horrible girl, I couldn't stop it. Practically all I've been doing since Braiden and I broke up was crying, just not in front of anyone. When Cristi lead me somewhere, I allowed her to do so, hoping and praying that no one was staring at us. I started wiping at my cheeks as she spoke, not really expecting o hear those words come out of her mouth. Though it still did have a sort of nasty to it, making me chuckle softly and then sniffle.
"Don't worry, I won't make you say it ever again. I thought I was suddenly with another person, kind of worried me for a minute," I teased her slightly, using my shirt to wipe at the rest of my tears on my face.

(( Oh and I redid Andrew if you wanted to go take a look at him ^^ I think he's a lot better now :D ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Christi hmmed, puffing up almost defiantly and tossing her hair over her shoulder. "You better not even try it, because it will end poorly for you." she warned, crossing her arms over her chest. "And no, honey. I'm still the same gorgeous me." She grinned smugly, then remembered that that was probably going to change here very soon, and she dropped the smile. Weariness, uncertainty, and even fear began crowding in, clamoring for attention, and she dropped her hands to her side, wiping her palms nervously against the sides of her jeans. "So, uh...If you're done with your little meltdown, what exactly are we supposed to do?" she asked, shifting her weight from foot to foot. "I don't exactly have any experience with being a mother. Or...with babies in general. So, what? Do we go to church to confess our sins and try to become born agains? Because I don't know about you, but I have enough crazy in my life to not want to deal with anymore."

(Haha, in all honesty, I don't really remember how he was before. ^^" But I still like him. XD)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

"Yeah, sure. You're so gorgeous," I teased Christi, reaching over and tossing the other side of her hair over in a playful matter. I honestly had no idea why girls had to flip their hair every five seconds. It was just a mystery to me. Listening to her words, I stuck my hands n my front pockets, shrugging my shoulders."I don't have any experience being a father either. The closest I've gotten is taking care of a kitten at home. But I guess we'll figure it all out."

(( Lol, it's a good thing you don't remember, he was pretty bad before xD But I'm glad you like him! ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Christi puffed out her cheeks at his teasing, though her features smoothed out again with a soft sigh at his words. "I have no experience with children, but I'm pretty sure that taking care of a baby isn't the same as taking care of a mangy animal." she pointed out, crinkling her nose in distaste. No. Christi didn't do animals. She didn't do babies, either, but she didn't really have a choice now, did she?
Shaking her head and sighing again, she began twisting the ends of her hair together nervously, biting her bottom lip in thought. "So...Should we just go ahead and start buying baby stuff, then?" she asked, sounding uncertain. "Because I don't exactly have a crib lying around."

(Haha, I doubt it. XD)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

I couldn't help but roll my eyes at Cristi. Was there anything that this girl actually did do? Besides be annoying and whine about everything anyways.
"Buying baby stuff now it's the best idea. Besides, we don't even know the gender of the baby yet. For now, I think buying some simple baby magazines and working on a way to tell our parents would be the best way to go," I replied, scratching the back of my head. Telling my adoptive parents was the scariest thing to me. They had taken me in after my parents were killed after all, dealt with me. How was I suppose to tell them I got some girl pregnant? That would put even more of a burden on their life.

(( Chriti's parents aren't gonna kick her out, are they? Or would they? I know that Andrew's parents are gonna tell him that he needs to find someplace else to live. ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Christi let out an annoyed huff at that, but decided to comply, giving a slight nod of her head and puffing out her cheeks again. "Alright. Baby magazines it is." she grudgingly agreed, wincing when he mentioned telling their parents. Christ. That was going to be a discussion she did not want to have. "Can't we just, uh, wait on that?" she asked nervously, tugging on her hair. "I don't know, maybe until I actually start showing? That way we know for sure this is happening?" Plus, who knew, maybe she'd be one of the lucky ones and have a miscarriage. That would solve all their problems. Letting out another hum, she suddenly straightened, shaking her head. "Never mind. Let's just got get some stupid magazines." she grumbled, turning on her heels and storming off before Andrew could say anything. This day would just keep on getting better and better.

(Probably. Hm...Christi's going to dump the baby with Annie and leave, right? So maybe her parents tell her that she has until the baby's born before she gets booted out, but maybe they tell her that if she gets rid of it-adoption or something like that-she can stay, and she's not ready to be a mother yet, and that's pretty much why she just abandons Annie with their baby? And then Braiden comes in to save the day and their relationship slowly reestablishes and happiness. \(^^)/ Christi is such a she-devil. This is why I don't play female characters often, because I always manage to make them horrible. DX)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

"Well, yeah, if you wanna wait a little bit. But try to at least start gaining the courage to tell them. Hell, if you can't physically say it, write it on a piece of paper and give it to them. Either way, they're gonna need to figure it out eventually," I replied to her with a shrug of my shoulder. I didn't care how she told her parents, only that she gets it done. I was scared too, terrified even. When she started walking, I followed close behind her, glancing all around me for that one person that I didn't want to catch me with some girl. The one that I slept with at that.

(( Oh my god, she's so mean lol But yeah, that can work. Andrew is gonna get kicked out in like....a month or so when they figure out what the gender is *nods* That's when he tells them and then he has to find an apartment. ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Christi glanced over her shoulder and rolled her eyes at Andrew's comment. "Seriously? Right it on a piece of paper? Like that's going to help, Einstein." she snipped, sniffing in disdain and crossing her arms with a huff. She knew she'd have to tell them eventually, just...not now. Not when it was still so new to her.
She made her way over to her car, pausing before glancing back at the boy, raising a brow in question to his obvious glancing around. "What are you doing?" she asked in exasperation. "There's no one else around who cares what we're up to. Let's go."

***

Braiden

I thought ice cream would have helped. It didn't.
After seeing Anni-Andrew with that...that...girl I had fled from the school, not knowing where I was supposed to go. I hated going home to a sick mother, an absent father, and a cruel brother. I didn't want to be alone in the library because the silence would just make me cry. I obviously couldn't go to my...former favorite place in the whole world. So I thought ice cream would help mend a broken heart. It just left my hands sticky with melted ice cream I couldn't eat, and tears staining my cheeks because ice cream reminded me too much of the times Ann...Andrew and I had shared the cold treat.
I missed Andrew.
I missed Annie.

(She's a vicious b*tch and I don't like her. Meh. :/ Aww, that's so cruel, kicking him out when he needs them the most. :( EVERYBODY IS ABANDONING ANNIE, WHAT THE HELL? DX
What should the gender of the baby be? Did we ever decide?)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

"It's not a bad idea if you can't physically say it," I muttered to her, sighing heavily as I scanned the area for him. Hearing Christi's words, I sighed heavily and walked with her, head down, over to her car. I just wanted to leave before more rumors about hm started then there already was.

(( She is o.o I like it better when you play guys Dance haha The girls are mean. Yeah, everyone is. But he shall remain strong! *nods* And...we have not o.o Do you think....maybe twins? (: ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

Christi rolled her eyes at Andrew's comment, deciding to ignore it as she unlocked the car, glancing over at him once before slipping behind the driver's side. Then she sighed, puffing out her breath in frustration as she tried to figure out where to go. Deciding on the simple bookstore, she turned the key, the engine roaring to life as she pulled the car out of the parking lot, pointing her wheels in that direction.

***

Braiden

After the disaster that had been the ice cream, I lingered for as long as I could, trudging back an hour later back home, holding my breath and dreading what was waiting. But when I got there, Aiden wasn't there, Mom was asleep, and Dad was typically absent. Letting out a heavy sigh, I made my way up to my bedroom, closing the door and flopping face down on the bed, completely miserable. At this time I would have been at his house, in his arms by now. I would be cuddling with him and his kitten. I would be...happy, and not so lonely. But no. He had gone off with some random girl, had left me behind. He'd...left me behind, even though he had promised not to.
He'd promised.

(Ahaha, I like it better when I play guys too. XD Haha, I hope so. XD Oh my god, I was seriously going to suggest twins, but I wasn't sure you would go for that. XD)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

Andrew

I got into the passenger's seat of Christi's car, looking around the interior of it. As I buckled myself in, I glanced at her.
"Um, how long have you had your license?" I asked, nervous about getting into a car with another teenager. I certainly had never done it before. Though it seemed that when I was dealing with Christi, I was doing a lot of things I have never done before...

(( Just stuck to guys from now on Dance lol And it fixes the debate of whether they have a boy or girl and it's just one more bundle of joy for Andrew to have to try and deal with on his own haha ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Haha, you don't have to tell me twice. XD Haha, yes. And I could also see Braiden trying to dress them up in matchy matchy clothes. XD Also, should we just skip somewhere? I feel like we're both struggling for stuff to say and do. .-.)

[TeddyBear {HarpyAshe} **Well You Built Up A World Of Magic, Cause Your Real Life Is Tragic**]

(( Oh I can see that too haha And yes we can ^^ Any particular spot you wanna go to? Any events you think should happen? ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Hm...I'm not sure. Should we roleplay Christi being pregnant and Braiden seeing the two hanging out together more and more, or should we go ahead and skip to when Christi abandons their kids? Or...Something?
And I have ideas that you'll probably hate me for, but you'll find out later. >;])

(( Damn you Dance, keeping stuff from me lol And maybe we can RP the day that they figure out what they're gonna have, Christi comes to pick Andrew up, looking somewhat preggo. Then I can write out a small thing of Annie telling his adoptive parents. Maybe then skip to them about to go do some shopping and Christi figures out that Annie got booted out of the house. Possible run into Braiden at the store? After that...go to Cristi's water breaking and baby time? Lol She stays in the hospital for like 2 days to recover, but when Annie comes one day, they tell him she bounced the hell out of there and left the kids xD ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Mwuahaha. XD Hm...But wouldn't Christi look a lot more than just a little preggo if they're able to tell the sex and if they're twins? I don't really know how that works, in all honesty. ^^? But just so I know we're on the same page, we write where Christi picks Annie up to figure out what the baby(ies) are, Annie tells his parents and is kicked out, then they shop for their babies and run into Braiden while Annie tells Christi about his situation, Christi goes into labor, and then ditches Annie and the babies at the hospital. Basically?)

(( Mh, that is true...Okay, she can look much preggo! Lol. Just more reason for Braiden to be suspicious and for people to start rumors that Andrew is a daddy (; And yup, basically ^^ ))

[(╯`▭´）╯︵ ǝɔnɒꓷ]

(Ahaha, alright. So...Maybe six monthsish? Or four? I can't remember when you're able to tell what the baby is. > . > And cool. Nailed it. XD So...Should we start with Christi approaching Annie and dragging him off?)

(( About 5 months before you know what the gender of the baby is :D So by this point, Christi should look very pregnant because at 12-16 weeks for a single baby, you start getting that hard belly and a bump. So she very much so looks it now. She probably already told her parents or they at least asked about it cause she's getting fat lol And yush we shall! I shall begin! >:D ))

Andrew

Five month...It's been five months since everything happened and school was nearing it's end. Thank God. Next year I will be a senior and after that...Well, I had plans for college, but...Sighing heavily, I looked at my phone to my text messages, the one that Christi sent me last night of her belly. It was getting big, very big. And with her hanging around me...I already heard the whispers when I pass by people. It's very obvious that Christi is pregnant and since she's hanging around me. Well I'm the #1 candidate for the daddy. Pocketing my phone, I put everything I needed for the weekend into my backpack before exiting the school, waiting for Christi to show herself. We were going to figure out the gender of the baby today, and I was very nervous. What if the baby wasn't healthy? What if something was wrong with it? Or what if it wasn't a baby? What if it was two? Or three? Four? Was that even physically possible? Okay, I needed to stop cause I was just freaking myself out.

(Haha, alright. Sounds good. XD And yeah, they probably already know. XP And okay, danke. ^^)

Braiden

Five months is a long time to be lonely. Five months is a long time without him. My mother has been getting sicker, my father less scarce, and Aiden more cruel. And let's not forget the countless assholes at school. Without Ann...Andrew, I became an easy target. Pushed, shoved, mocked, it all came back full force, sometimes resulting in horrible fights that resulted me bleeding on the floor or locked in the girl's bathroom. I was completely alone, and it hurt. And sometimes people do things they shouldn't when hurting.
I let out a weary sigh as I opened my locker, opening it quickly and glancing over my shoulder warily. I'd tried to get my locker changed months ago, to a more secluded area, but unfortunately, I was stuck. I quickly gathered my books, ducking my head down as he passed by, slipping out of the school, causing a lump to lodge in my throat. We never even glanced each other's way anymore, at least, not when we were paying attention. Despite being heartbroken, I still...No. No, I didn't even want to finish that thought. Slamming the locker door shut, I turned and headed in the opposite direction, wanting to be anywhere but here or at home.
Being lonely sucks.

Pregnancy was not fun. Being fat was not fun. Morning sickness was not fun. Hanging out with Andrew all the time was not fun. Her parents had found out months ago about her pregnancy, and such a nasty fight had ensued that Christi had no other choice but to keep herself out of her house. Today, her and King Dork were going to see what the sex of the baby was, though Christi had a feeling it might be a boy. That whole, "Girls are close to the heart, and boys are close to the other part" saying. And the baby was definitely being a little pain in the ass.
Letting out a heavy sigh, Christi pulled in front of the school, honking her horn obnoxiously, the way she always did when she was waiting for Andrew and wanted him to hurry the hell up.

Andrew

I stood there as I waited for the girl to come pick me up, probably going to be as annoying as ever. And as I figured, I heard a loud car horn and looked over. Sure enough, it was her, sending me a glare as she sat there in wait. Sighing, I glanced around before going to the car, opening the door and getting into the passenger's seat.
"Must you honk the horn? There's such thing as texting to tell me you're here," I asked her, buckling myself in as I looked at her.
