I Can't Love You [12]

   Sienna rubbed her eyes and, after realizing this was real, smiled. "Boy." Braden started laughing.He picked her up, spinning her, but quickly putting her down to make sure the she was okay and that he had't hurt the baby.They hugged and kissed and pow-wowed like most couples after such a beautiful reunion.This is how it's supposed to be.Sienna thought.Braden pulled back and held her out with his arms looking at her. "God, you're beautiful."

   Sienna blushed. "Thank you."

   Braden picked her up and carried her back to her car.Sat her in, buckled her up, and on their way they went.He was headed to a beautiful hotel called, French Riviara.Sienna had always wanted to go there, but had never been able to afford it, but Braden can.As he pulled up he watched her expression go from puzzled to realizing to shocked then to ecstatic.She was positively glowing.He motioned to the hotel. "Shall we?"

   She only nodded, still in a state of numb shock.Her eyes were glowing, her mouth went from an O to a smirk and she kissed him.

   Ryland and Aira

 "Ryland!" Bethany yelled from upstairs.

   "What?" he yelled back.

  She walked to the banister. "Where is Aira?"

   "Outside.Why?" He asked.

   "I need to talk to her." He saw the skeptic lookon his face. "Girl issues Ry."

  He put his hands up. "By all means, go find Aira." He smiled.

  She walked outside and found Aira sitting in the grass drawing the mountains and skyline. "Wow, you're talented Aira.I never knew you could draw."

   She smiled. "Thanks Beth."

  "Uhm, can I.. talk to you?" She asked timidly.

  Aira smiled putting down the notepad. "Of course.What's wrong?"

  Bethany stared at her feet. "I did something terrible Aira."

  Aira frowned. "What is it?"

  Bethany started to cry and put her hands on her eyes.She sobbed quietly, knowing that this could possibly ruin her life. "When I went to my friend's house, we had some boys over, and..."

  "Beth, I don't like where this is going."

  "I think...I think I'm..."

  Aira nodded. "Pregnant." She said it so plainly that it shocked Bethany.

  Bethany looked up. "How.."

  "You're starting to show.I know what that looks like, and you have been getting sick, and not to mention you've been eating everything in the fridge.I decided you would tell me when you were ready.I'm glad you did."

   Bethany started crying again. "But I'm only 16!What am I going to do!?I just ruined my life, I'm going to have to drop out of school, I'm going to lose ALL of my friends, and I'm going to get FAT!" she said sobbing wildly.

   Aira wrapped her arms around her. "Sweety, I know you're scared, but maybe you could consider.."

   "NO ABORTIONS AIRA!" she whisper yelled.

    "NO!Not an abortion, but adoption." she suggested.

    A pained look crossed Bethany's face, and she shook her head. "No.No way.I promised myself that I wouldn't give this baby up."

    Aira smiled. "You really are growing up.Well, I have some news.I'm pregnant too."

    Bethany smiled. "That's wonderful!"

     Ryland walked outside. "What's going on?"

   Bethany looked up, her face still tear stained and red, and Aira had a worried look on her face. "Ry, we have some good and bad news."

   "What is it?"

    Aira spoke up. "Well... we're pregnant."

    Ryland smiled. "Oh my gosh Aira that's- Wiat.What do you mean, WE?"

    Braden and Sienna

  After they had gotten settled into their room and eaten something, Braden stood infront of Sienna and smiled. "You know Si, they have a wedding chapel here."

   Sienna smiled. "Is that a proposal?"

    "Yes ma'am it is."

    "And sir, it is gladly accepted!"

   A few hours later.

  Ryland's phone rings and it's Braden. "Hello?"

  "Ryland!"

  "Braden!"

  "Man, we made up, got married, and the baby is a boy!"

  Ryland smiled slightly. "That's wonderful and confusing all at once!But nothing would top my day in confusion."

  "Tell me!"

  "Aira is pregnant."

  "And?"

  Ryland took a deep breath. "So is Bethany."

 Braden went silent. "Are you... kidding?"

  "No."

  Ryland heard Braden whisper something, obviously to Sienna.He heard an excited squeal then a sudden gasp.He shook his head as she took the phone. "OH EM GEE!AIRA'S PREGNANT!I'm so sorry about Beth."

  "Oh, I know.It's fine, everything happens for a reason I guess.She was REALLY upset, and she couldn't even look at me.I felt bad for her but I was still so angry with her.Well, I better go, and congratulations!"

  They hung up and Aira came down the stairs. "Hey baby."

   "Hey." Ryland sighed.

    Aira smiled sympathetically. "Ryland, everything will work out.You know that.And hey, you'll have a new baby, and a new niece or nephew."

    Ryland frowned. "She's too young Aira."

   "I know Ry!But remember in college when we thought I was?"

    "You wer about 3 years older than her.You were 19." He said looking her in the eyes.

     Aira sighed. "Well, atleast go talk to her sweetheart.Please?She's torn up, she's afraid you hate her, and she was crying so hard when I left her room she was almost choking for air."

    Ryland turned away and took a deep breath. "I can't talk to her right now without breaking down and yelling or crying."

   Aira nodded and walked out of the room.Ryland had no clue what to do.Two babies were on their way, and who knew how much time they had?What did they need?Who was Bethany's baby's daddy, who would help her when Aira had her baby, and how could they handle two small infants?There was too much on his plate right now and he didn't know if he could handle all of it.
