S e v e n t y - S e v e n

Start from the beginning
                                    

I cringed, "What does that have to do with anything?"

Kendall threw her hands in the air, "You have no idea what you're doing!" 

I tried to look taken aback, "Uh, yeah, I do, I'm trying to get you to the damn hospital!" I turned back to the road in frustration, but quietly sulked in my mind.

She didn't deserve to be yelled at like that, and I had said so myself. 

I took a deep breath and glanced at her.

You are literally so unbelievable. You wanna start getting suitable for being in a relationship? Start damn apologizing, you idiot, you're not gonna get anywhere, and you'll probably be drifted away from her if you keep being like this.

Yeah, I get it, but again, it's not me to apologize.

Yeah, keep being you and might as well die alone.

I'm not letting Kendall die with me, and when you put it like that, it's starting to sound like if I get in a relationship, I'm gonna kill people if I die.

What—!? OK, no, you're gonna be really single when you grow older, and every kid is gonna hate you for having you as a next-door neighbor because you'll be that "Creepy guy next door". 

"Nick, there's a gas turn, are you not gonna get gas?"

I nearly floored the break.

"What?" I said, as the car skidding to a stop.

"I said, aren't you gonna get gas?" Kendall said naturally, pointing at the dashboard. I looked at it.

"Uhh, yeah, of course." This was not meant to be awkward.

We stopped and I grabbed one of the containers to fill up with gasoline. Kendall hopped out of the trunk with a clunk, making me frown as I looked up. "What're you getting out for?" 

"What? I need to stretch my legs," she reasoned making her way to me.

It was fully filled up so I reached into my pocket for a 20 dollar bill. Kendall had her hand outstretched, making me squint.

"Why're you doing that?" I said, referring to her outstretched hand.

"Give it to me," she said. "I'll give it to the guy."

I frowned, "I thought you were in pain?"

Kendall looked taken aback, "I'm not in pain, we're only heading to the hospital to get away from the monkeys and to check on her," she said, rubbing her belly, which was slightly a bump.

Realization dawned on me as my gaze traveled from her bump to her face.

"What? Why're you staring at me like that?"

I put down the container and folded my arms, "Did you get a sonogram with Zayn to find out the gender of our baby?"

Kendall was quiet before nodding, "I... didn't have a choice. Please, I can explain, but before that, you need to promise me you won't speak unless I tell you to."

I sighed and nodded.

"OK, so it was Zayn's idea because he was like, I will bring you to the hospital, and on the way, he was kind of like 'I'm doing this because I don't really think it's necessary for Nick to be co-parenting this baby.' I know, don't fight me on this, I know he was wrong, but I kind of had to agree with him on that one—"

"What, I wanted to co-parent, but you wouldn't let me," I couldn't help but interrupt, making her lift up a finger at me.

"I know, back then—"

"How long has it been since you've found out the gender!?" I couldn't help but exclaim.

Kendall bit her lip, "It hasn't been long, just a few days—"

"A few days!?" I rubbed my face in disbelief, "Oh my God, Kendall... can we just get in the car and—"

"Yeah, I'll give the bill to the guy," Kendall, unexceptionally too sweet. She took the 20 dollar bill from me and quickly walked up to the cashier.

I was really crazed out by the news of me having a kid all over again, but when Kendall had said she knew the gender of the baby but had no thoughts of even trying to tell me, it angered me.

I know I might have been in the position to be storming at her, forcing her to tell me the gender, and she might not have even found out, so I couldn't have had been able to just go up to her and tell her to get a sonogram, either.

I climbed up the Jeep to find Joe, calling me.

"Hey."

The audio was cracking really bad.

"Hey, Nick, you reached the hospital yet?" I made out.

"No, we stopped to get gas. Kendall seems fine, so she said we're not in any rush. We're gonna just check on the baby, which I just found out was a girl. She didn't tell me," I added exasperatedly. 

Joe chuckled on the other end, "That's really sad."

I nodded, "I know, but besides that, how're you guys, are you still stuck? Or did you find a way to jumpstart—?"

"Oh, we're already at Palms Springs."

"WHAT!?" I couldn't help but exclaim. 

"Hah, yeah, the car started the minute you sped off. Zayn wanted us to drive back, but Gi wanted us to just get to Palm Springs to explain to Kim and the others..."

I nodded, "That's smart. By the way, what did she say? Did you tell her what happened, or—?"

"She kind of blamed herself and Kris was pretty mad at herself for falling asleep the whole ride and not noticing that we were missing from the trail and stuff... Are you guys not moving?"

"No, we're not," I said, turning to find Kendall walking towards us. "But yeah, she's coming and... yeah, we'll be leaving soon. Is Gigi next to you?"

"No, she's with... Zayn."

I nodded, smiling to myself, "And should I be concerned about why you have that tone of voice on?"

"I don't know, I just feel slightly threatened in some way..."

I nodded, "I feel you, dude. Hey, Kendall, are we ready?" I said to Kendall who had climbed into her seat with a slight grunt.

"Yep. Who're you talking with?"

"Joe. Alright, Joe, man, I'll talk to you when we get back... OK?"

"Yeah, say hi to Kendall for me!" 

I nodded and hung up, turning to Kendall, "Joe said hi."

Kendall nodded, "Yeah... are you still mad at me?" 

I cringed, "No, why would I still be mad at you? I'm not mad."

I couldn't help but lean into peck her lips, hoping she would back away or flinch. 

She didn't.

I hope you all are havin' fun, I'm having a great time here at my house, doing nothing... But yeah, updating is fun for me, and especially writing, which happens when I update, so... yeah.

Don't forget to vote, my Wattpad is being suddenly very weird, it's changing the font! To Helvetica, in which I LOVE. 

VOTE and COMMENT, I swear it'll get more interesting than this.

P.s told you I wouldn't kill the baby!
