24

I was downstairs cooking breakfast for Mel and Jason who were upstairs laying in our bed. I had just flipped the pancake when Derek walked into the room.

"Hello" he says grabbing a cup of coffee.

"Morning" I say putting the pancake on the plate then putting a smaller, Mickey Mouse shaped pancake on for Mel.

"Can I make you anything?" I ask Derek. It is weird from going to no brothers or sisters in-laws, to having three alive and two dead.

"No I'm going to grab some Timmy's with Maegan." he says. I stop and turn around looking at him. I look him up and down, its so weird how much him and Jason look alike.

"So you to are friends now?" I ask turning back to the pancake so it doesn't burn.

"Ehh, she's cool. But I mostly just want to get in her pants" he say. I stop what I'm doing and turn around and look at him.

"What?" I question him. He steps closer and looks at me.

"Look, if you hurt her in any way I will kill you and I don't care if you are family. That girl has been through enough shit from dickheads only trying to get in her pants and I'm tired of watching her get hurt! She needs a real man that will step up and be there for her, not just say what she wants to hear just so they can fuck her then leave! Got it!" I say stepping closer till we are inches apart.

He looks me up and down the nods and walks away. I turn back to the almost burn pancake and put it on a smaller plastic plate for Mel. I put butter and syrup and grab a real fork and a plastic fork and walk up the stairs to my room.

I open the door to see Mel holding onto Jason's fingers while jumping up and down on the bed. They both stop when they see me. I walk over to them and hand Jason his plate and sit down on the bed, pulling Mel onto my lap so I can feed her.

"So Mel's birthday is coming up soon" I say putting a piece into her mouth.

"I know my baby is going to be one" Jason sighs. I smile and continue feeding Mel.

"So what should we do?" I ask. Jason takes a bite then shrugs.

"I guess just throw a party, invite the gang, your parents, my mom" he says. I nod, smiling that he wants Pattie to be in our life's after years of lying and hiding.

"Maybe we can invite your dad and his kids" I say looking down at Mel who is playing with the syrup. I roll my eyes at how messy and sticky she is getting.

"Why?" he asks in a tone. I look at him with a questing look.

"What do you mean why? He is your dad and Mel's grandfather. He should be here for her first birthday" I say. I stand up and grab some wipes and wipes the sticky off of Mel's fingers.

"He hasn't been there for me and went off and married someone else. Why would he want me when he is happy with them" he say pushing the syrup around with his fork.

"Because you are his son. And he hid for the same reason your mom did and you forgave her so why can't you forgive your dad?" I ask him. He sighs then stands up and walks over to his closet, getting dressed.

"Where are you going?" I ask him while sitting Mel on the floor.

"Out" he says before walking out the door, down the stairs and out the front door.

"Oh yea because its not like I just got kidnaped and beaten" i say more to myself then anyone. I pick up the plates in one hand and Mel in the other and walk down the stairs. I sat Mel down by her toys and walk into the kitchen and wash the dishes.

I was laying in bed, all alone. Jason hasn't came back, Mel is asleep in her room, Maegan is out with Derek. I sigh and sit up and look around the room, I see all of Jason's dirty clothes all over the floor so I stand up and walk over to them, picking them up and putting them in the basket.

When I pick up a pair of jeans, a pack of cigarets fall out of the pocket. Thats weird, he stopped the day Mel was born. I picked up the pack and looked inside it, there was no cigarets, but a few joints and some smalls bag with white pills and powders in them.

"You have got to be fucking kidding me" I say. I know that he is a drug dealer, and so am I, but we don't do drugs, at least I don't. It makes it worse that Mel is right in the next room and he doesn't care.

"What are you doing?" I hear Jason's voice from behind me. I turn to he him with messed up hair, and clothes.

"Your doing drugs again?! You told me you would stop because of Mel" I say throwing the pants to the ground but keeping the box in my hand. He rolls his eyes and walks closer to me and snaps the box out of my hand.

"Your the one going through my shit" he says before walking over to the nightstand and putting the box in the drawer. His breath stunk of weed and alcohol, his eyes and all around his nose was red. He had a mark on his neck and smelled of perfume.

"Are you cheating on me again?" I ask him. He stands there looking at me, not knowing really what to say. I nod my head with tears in my eyes and walk out of the room, down the stairs and out of the house. I run across the road to the gang house and up to Maegans room. She wasn't here, she was with Derek so that means I can be alone.

I sit on the bed and sigh, he told me he was never going to do that to me again, I shouldn't have trusted him. Now I'm the dumb shit and the fool. Just then I feel a sharp pain go through my stomach. I groan and stand up, hoping it will help but it doesn't.

I haven't had a pain like this since I was pregnant wit- wait no, I can't be pregnant can i? I would love to have another kid but not with that lying piece of shit. Another pain goes through me and I walk into the bathroom and grad a cup of water. After drinking it I throw the cup in the trash and thats when I see a pregnancy test.

I look under the cabinet to see the box, I look inside and there are still some left. I take one out and look at it, it won't hurt right?
