Epilogue
December 5, 2036
*Joshua's POV*
I was lying on my bed after I had eaten lunch. It was about 4 weeks after graduation. I still wasn't sure where I was going to college. I had applied a few places but gotten accepted to all of them.. I just needed to choose which one I wanted to go to.
There was a slight knock on my bedroom door. Jessa opened it and came in with my phone in her hand.
"You left this in my room and it's going off like crazy. I think it's Bree.." Jessa explained. Bree is my girlfriend.
Once she handed me my phone, (A/N: I don't care if this is 21 years in the future and they don't use these things anymore, but you know..) I had six snapchats all from her, ten messages (nine from her), two DMs both from her, one missed call and three missed FaceTime calls from her. I had no idea what was going on. She was never like this. Sometimes she would message me and if I didn't get that right away, she'd snapchat me if it was something really important. This was unlike her.
I checked my messages first, they said, "hey come over" "baby I need u", "come quickly", "u need to come over", "please Joshy...", "babe, why aren't you responding..", "this is important!!", "Babe I really really need you.." "JOSHUA OLIVER GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE RN!!"
Quickly, I checked if she said anything more on the snapchats or DMs, but they were all the same thing, asking me to come over.
Once I texted her back, "be over in 5..", I shoved my phone in my pocket and grabbed my keys. I threw open my door, ran down the stairs and all throughout the house to the door to go to the garage.
Mum yelled, "where are you going Josh!?"
"It's Bree.." I yelled back, jumping into my car after opening the garage door. I sped out of our driveway and onto the road.
I got there in a record amount of time and rushed inside. I only stopped once after I yelled hello to Aunt Paige when Hayden came out of his room and stopped me.
"hey Hayden.." I said, trying to get past him.
"What happened with Bree?" He asked and looked at me like I had done something wrong.
"I don't know. She texted me a lot, begging me to come over here."
"I heard her in her room, crying. So you didn't hurt her?"
"I'd never," I stepped back when Hayden stood over me.
"You better not," he was protective over his sister who was three years younger than him, "she is two years younger than you.. I don't particularly like you two dating."
"It's only two years.."
"Still.."
"Can I go talk to her now?" I asked nicely.
"Fine.." He gave in, letting me through the hallway towards Bree's room.
I walked down to the end of the hallway and turned right to face Bree's door. I opened the door to see her on the bed, her head in the palms of her hands. I walked over to her to see what was wrong.
"Baby, what's wrong?" I began to rub her back, "Did I do something? Did you want me to come over here so you could confront me? Are you breaking up with me? Please don't be breaking up with me," I started to tear up.
"No.. I would never ever even think about breaking up with you," she smiled slightly at me.
"Good," I told her, "now, what is it?"
"It's about graduation night," her head hung while her body was upright.
"Yeah, what about it? Do your parents not like it that I graduated? Do they think I don't have plans?" I asked her.
"No! They love you. Hayden wasn't too fond of anyone I've dated in the past. We both know that London adores you. Did she stop you today?" She wondered.
"No.. Just Hayden."
"Oh," she paused for a minute before carrying on with our conversation from before, "well.. It is about graduation night. Not exactly graduation, but what happened afterwards," she looked at me, hoping I knew what she was talking about. I did.
"What about it?" I wondered.
"Here," she handed me a pregnancy test. Positive.
"Oh my god, babe.." I smiled, but my smile soon faded, "what about our parents? What about Hayden?"
"I don't know," she began crying again.
"Baby, don't cry.. We'll be alright. It'll be okay, baby.."
"Josh.. My mum won't like it at all," she looked at me teary-eyed.
"I don't care what your mum thinks. We love each other, and they approve of us. I'm not sure if they'll approve of the baby, though. I don't care if Hayden doesn't approve of it. He won't approve of anything, just because he's your older brother. No matter what happens, we'll get through it. Together."
"I know, baby, I know," she continued crying while scrunching herself into a ball and curling her head onto my lap as I sat beside her.
I ran my hand down her head, continuing the long trail of her hair. I hooked my arm around her waist, pulling her up beside me.
"We'll be okay.." I whispered to her.
"I hope," she sniffled.
"How about we tell them now?" I suggested, and she just nodded.
We walked downstairs, hand-in-hand, and made our way to the living room where Aunt Paige, Uncle Ash, Hayden, and London were all sitting.
"Joshy!!" London yelled, springing up from her chair and throwing herself into my arms. She was pretty light for a ten year old..
"Hey London!" I exclaimed, catching her in my arms. Bree just watched me, smiling the whole time. She loves how London adores me. I think I'd be a pretty good father, I mean, little kids love me.
"Hey Josh, how are ya?" Uncle Ash asked.
"Pretty good," I responded, looking down at Bree standing beside me. I put London down and she sat back on her chair.
"Bree, honey, what's wrong? It looks like you've been crying," Aunt Paige was concerned.
"Well," Bree looked at me, wondering if we should say it now. I nodded at her, and she continued, "I-I'm pregnant.."
Her mum just stared at us, her jaw dropped to the floor. Hayden jumped out of his seat, slamming his fist into my face. I fell over, hurt.
"ASSHOLE!! YOU GOT MY SIXTEEN YEAR OLD SISTER PREGNANT!" He screeched.
"I'm sorry," I apologized, feeling my lip that was now bleeding. Bree fell to my side, holding my head up and asking me if I was okay.
"Get away from him now, Bree.." Hayden ordered.
"Hayden, calm down," Uncle Ashton scolded.
"You can't control me, Hayden. You've hated every guy I've dated. It's my choice. And I love Josh.." Bree spat at him, crying again.
"Bree.. I don't know what to tell you. I'm so disappointed in you! Ugh! Why would you even want to get pregnant at sixteen? So you can be on those fucking shows!? You know what.. Just get out!!" Aunt Paige released her anger.
"Paigey, babe, it's okay.." Uncle Ashton tried to calm her down.
"No, it's not! She needs to get out RIGHT NOW!" Aunt Paige yelled at us again.
Uncle Ash was almost crying. He didn't want to see his oldest daughter suffer just because her mum was mad at her. I could see him mouthing, 'I'm sorry..' to us as we ran up to Bree's room to get some of her things.
------
She placed her bags in the backseat of my car before we drove off to my house. When we were in the driveway, I saw Uncle Ash and London crying while Hayden and Aunt Paige were just mad. I would take Bree to live with me, that's all.
We approached my house, then got Bree's bags out of the back. We walked up to the front porch and rang the doorbell since I had forgotten a key.
As mum opened the door, she saw Bree crying with three bags in her hands. She looked over at me to see me crying with a bruised and swelling lip.
"Oh my god, guys, come on in.." She was worried about what had happened.
""What happened? Is everything alright? Are you both okay?" She fired questions at us.
"We're fine, mum. Aunt Paige got mad at Bree and me, so she kicked Bree out. Hayden got mad at me and punched me in the face," I explained.
"Why were they mad at you?" She wondered, motioning us into the living room where dad and Jessa were.
"Well, I'm pregnant.." Bree smiled a crooked smile.
"Really?" Jessa asked excitedly.
"Yeah," I confirmed.
"How far along are you?" Mum was surprised. Dad was just watching us, shocked.
"I'm six weeks," she lifted her shirt to show her small bump at had already started forming.
"Guys-" dad stood up, but sighed, "I remember when your mum and I had gotten pregnant with Jillian.. We were scared to tell our parents, so we didn't. I'm glad you guys told us. First of all, I am mad at you guys, of course I am, but I understand that Bree doesn't have anywhere else to go, and you guys will need support when the baby comes.."
"Yeah," I agreed with him.
"Just, next time, remember protection," my mum warned.
"We will..." I laughed at her comment, "and thank you guys so much," I hugged them before Bree did too.
Bree and I ran up to my room after that, placing her things in the corner to be unpacked some other time. We sat on my bed, just talking about names and everything else about the baby. We were so excited.
*Skylar's POV*
"I can't believe we're becoming grandparents.." Calum was thinking out loud.
"I know," I agreed.
"I'm becoming an aunt!" Jessa was becoming an aunt at thirteen, and she was excited. I was excited about becoming a grandma also. I couldn't believe this was happening, though. I was sort of glad it was..
THE END!!!
