The last few hours had been the rollercoaster of a life time. Had he asked me just this morning I would have burst out into tears with joy. But then there was the accident.

There had been the call, all those things he said about me and Abby. Even if he tried to tell me now how could i believe a word he muttered?

He had his dreams and I knew that from the moment i met him, like i had had mine before Abby. He had gotten an opportunity to play again and who would turn that down? I understood what he wanted was more important than me ad Abby and he would only stay with me for the baby.

But i could raise it on my own, i did it once, i could do it again. I wouldn't settle to be anyone's eternal consolation price. I knew i was worth more than that now. He could follow his dream and didn't have to be held down by me or anyone else, even if it was our growing twins.

I had my mom to help and support us and i could stay in my job. It wasn't what i had dreamed, what i had pictured but safety was more important than happiness and i had to think of my children.

They didn't need a dad who'd always care more about his games than them, they didn't need someone who showed up only when the season allowed it. They were better off without this drama.

"T-Taylor please, I don't understand we were so happy" Travis voice broke and i could see the tears in his eyes. And obviously this didn't make me happy either but i had to think of the hearts beating within me that weren't in love with him, i had to think of my kids.

"No, I don't wanna hear it okay. I understand it, it's your dream, your one opportunity to make it big. It's what you always wanted in life. Youd get to step into Jason's footsteps and this little town can't compete with that."

Tears rolled over my cheeks and Abby tried to whip them with her little hands only making the sinking feeling in my stomach worse.

"I can't compete with that Travis. And I don't wanna have to."

Abby looked between the both of us and reached towards Travis again with her little hands. Travis had become somewhat of a father figure for her over the past months and damn in only 5 months id make him a real father but i wouldn't let her behind. If he couldn't love her like he loved her siblings, he didn't deserve to be in any of our lives, so i held her close and didn't let her go to him, even tho i knew it would upset her. It was for her own good after all.

Travis eyes looked so incredibly devastated all i wanted to do was wrap my arm around him and kiss him and tell him id marry him but this wasn't fair.

"I'm giving you an easy way out right now Travis. If you go now i won't look for you, i wont force child support for the kids. You won't have any obligations and you won't have to stay with me. You can go and live your dream, play ball like you always wanted.

It's not your responsibility that i got pregnant by a good for nothing guy that ran as soon as he saw the test. And i know you don't love Abby as much as you will love your own kids. We only had a few months together and this will mean a life time of obligation.

Not 18 years, not 21, but forever, even if you aren't with me the kids would be yours if you stayed. You can go right now and follow your dreams and when you retire find yourself a wife to marry and then have kids with, not the other way around.

Someone who fits into your lifestyle, with fashion sense and without an 18-month-old baby from someone else. Someone who can be your support without needing yours constantly.
