Chapter 25
Your joking right?
I swear they are so stupid!
I thought police officers go through a lot of training. Yeah, apparently not.
Austin is even blind to it.
I can't blame him much though he's never been around drunk people, besides me of course.
I pull Austin slightly into me. He turns around and faces me so our faces our inches apart. His voice soft and soothing, he whispers to me, "I love you so much."
I study his face and watch as tear begins seeping out of his eyes and roll down his cheeks. Austin doesn't cry that much, I think he's only ever cried one of two other times in front of me.
I lean into him and kiss away all his tears. His skin is soft and smooth beneath my lips. He smiles at me and for the millionth time squeezes my hand.
"Tell Chance I love him for me and Austin I love you too," I whisper back to him before releasing his hand and walking towards the couple.
I watch as more tears escape Austin's eyes and I have to bite my cheek to stop myself from tearing up.
The moment I walk outside I can feel the sun's rays beaming on me. I feel like my body is on fire. It is a really hot day outside. It's also really beautiful. There are a few clouds high up in the sky and a nice breeze to take away some of the heat.
The couple leads me to a black truck. It's a little old Ford truck. Opening the door to the backseat behind the passenger side, I see a new born baby. It's absolutely adorable. It's has a tiny nose, crystal blue eyes, brownish hair and good size lips.
The man, I think his name was Justin, started the engine to the truck.
"Wait! Stop please," I said already hoping out of the car.
I never told Austin!
I run as fast I can back to the police department. Thankfully Austin is still there talking to an officer. The moment he saw me a huge smile appeared on his face. A gave a half smile back. I stand there with my hands on my knees trying to breathe. That little bit of running wore me out.
"Austin, I need to talk to you for a second," I said stand in up straight.
I walk towards him and hold out my hand for him to take. He laces his fingers with mine and we walk out of the department.
What am I supposed to say?! "I'm pregnant with my father's baby but I'm keeping it, so sorry."
I can't just say that.
"Adilynne are you okay?" Austin asks me after a minute of silence.
"Yeah, I'm fine I just need to tell you something but I don't want you to be mad at me, okay? "
"I promise," he says holding out his pinky finger and placing his other hand over his heart.
I look him in the eye and wrap my pinkie finger around his.
"So um, I know this is going to be hard to hear and I know your going to be upset. I'm so sorry I didn't tell you sooner, I just didn't know what to do. But uh, Austin," He reaches out and cups my face in his hands, using his thump he wipes away my tears.
"What is it baby girl?" He asks.
His voice and his touch calms me down.
"Austin I'm uh, pregnant with my father's baby, he- he raped me."
Something inside of me felt like it just burst. I couldn't contain it. It was too strong. I fell into Austin arms and began sobbing. I couldn't catch my breath and my chest kept tightening. I could feel my throat start to close off.
Underneath me I feel the hot concrete. I try to focus on Austin's arms wrapped around me. He's rocking me back and forth in his arms. I can tell he's trying to say something but I can't hear him.
1,2,3,4,5,6,7 I count over and over again in my head. Memories all flood back to me. My whole life is on repeat in my head.
It won't shut off.
AUSTIN'S POV
He's so lucky I didn't kill him. I wonder if she wants to keep the baby. I low key want to. I just wish it wasn't his. I wish it was mine. No fuck that. That baby is mine. Not his. That's my child. And it will always be my child.
I stare at Adilynne as I wait for her to wake up. She went unconscious so the police decided she should get checked at the hospital. So here we are now at the hospital.
I wonder how things would be If I never met Adilynne. I don't even want to begin to imagine that.
I let go of Adilynne's hand and slowly place it beside her. O kiss her forehead before leaving the room. I walk to elevators and go down to the lobby where the gift shop is.
"Hey, how's it going? " the employee from behind the counter asked.
The gift shop is pretty small and mostly covered in balloons saying get well soon. I'm not in here for a balloon though.
"hey, so do you happen to have any baby rattles for sale?" I asked heading towards the counter.
"Yeah if you turn around and take the next aisle," he said pointing to the aisle with the baby stuff.
I turn around and make my way towards the aisle.
I used to have two sister's. They would be 7 right now. My parents never took care of them, it was all up to me from the very moment they were born. Sometimes I would even have to steal good so we wouldn't go hungry. Now that I look back at it we were pretty lucky. At least we didn't get abused like Adilynne did.
They were twins. Anne and Anna. They looked a lot like Adilynne to be honest. They were my family, all I had. I raised them. But their gone. They died in a car crash with my parents. I was there but I wish I was. Anne and Anna were not buckled they were just put in the backseat. So when the car crashes they flew. After that my parents were never around. Not like they were in the first place anyways.
I shouldn't have let them go. I'll never forgive myself for that.
I walk to one of the shelves and picked out a baby rattle, a blue and pink pacifier and then a stuffed animal. The stuffed animal was a reindeer. It's like a bear but it has white and brown fuzzy, soft fur, a green scarf, antlers and on the bottom of the right foot it says, in red 'Jesus loves me.'
I pay for the things and carry it out in a bag.
"Hey Adilynne, can we talk, " I say sitting the bag beside her bed.
Just in case she doesn't want the baby, I shouldn't give her the stuff yet.
She gives me a big smile and pays the door next to her. Outside of her room is the foster parents.
"Who is this little girl?" I say making a funny voice.
In Adilynne's arms is a new born baby, all I can picture is us having a family together. One day, if we're lucky, everything will be okay.
