Max:
I didn't know what was happening, but one second I'm going back to bed with Kayla, the next second an angry Scooter Braun is calling me. I left a note for Kayla to tell her where I went since Scooter said it was urgent.
-
Stepping out of my cab, I noticed a lot of people with cameras. I guessed someone big was inside until one of them recognized me.
"There he is!"
I stumbled backwards not expecting them all to come up to me, firing away on questions. They were all talking about "the baby" so I figured they meant Kayla and forgot it was more than one child.
"Kayla is doing good. She's having twins not a single child." I said.
They looked at me annoyed. I answered their questions didn't I?
A pretty blue-eyed brunette woman pushed aside the reporters to stand next to my side. She plastered on a sickening smile for camera, shoving a microphone in my face.
"That's good to hear about Kayla, but I want to know is Nathan Sykes. Your bandmate from the Wanted. How is he doing with his child?" She asked.
I paused not knowing how to respond. Had Nathan exposed himself? Last I was with the band, he had been keeping his child a secret.
I looked around lost, confused what was happening. This couldn't be real. A hand pushed between the woman and I. The woman's smile dropped and the hand pushed me into the building.
-
The hand that had pushed me inside had been a security guard of Justin Bieber. The young sensation had seen me outside and sent a guard out to help me get inside.
"Is it true?" Justin asked.
I looked at him confused. Had Nathan exposed himself?
"What?" I asked.
"About Nathan being pregnant and a h-hermit-hermaphrodite." Justin said.
I grabbed his arm, squeezing it tightly. He grimaced at me and squirmed to get out of my hold. I pushed him against a wall, staring down at him darkly. I wasn't letting him go until I knew how everyone knew about Nathan and the baby.
"Where did you read about that?" I asked.
"Let go of him." Scooter said.
Scooter was next to us next putting his arm between Justin and I. His eyes glared at me, but I knew instantly it wasn't about the thing with Justin.
-
In Scooter's office, I read an entire report on Justin's phone that had come out only an hour ago. The report was all over social media. It was all there. Nathan's files, sonograms of our son, pictures of him recently to prove points, the names of his doctors and traveling doctor. Everything.
"I didn't know. I talked to his younger sister just this morning. Everything was fine." I said.
I looked at pictures of Nathan today. Tiredly leaning against Jay in the first picture, shocked by the camera, peeking out curtains and I recognized Tom's head in one picture. In the picture of Tom, there were several bodies huddling in a circle. My guess was Nathan was in the middle.
"His family had to be moved." Scooter said.
"Everything was fine earlier." I said.
I handed Justin his phone back and rubbed my eyes with my hands.
"Jay said that you were the father. He says you exposed him when you called Jess by gathering detail where the child was going to be raised and sending out Nathan's files to the media." Scooter said.
My own bandmates thought it was me? I had been kicked out. In the first place, I didn't want anyone to know about the baby. I still didn't want anyone to know about him.
"Does the media know I'm the father?" I asked.
"You're the father? So it really is true." Justin said.
"Don't go telling anyone that bit." I snapped.
"No. The media doesn't know that you're the other father, but why would you do something like this? I had to make arrangements to get his doctor in London to him, get a squad to help him and his family. Jay says he's been quiet and not talking at all since the whole thing happened." Scooter said.
"I didn't tell anyone. The only person I told was my girlfriend." I said.
It was quiet. After speaking, I think the same thought went through all of our heads. The only logical person who would have had the time and evidence to prove Nathan was in fact having a child.
"Your girlfriend is pregnant too right? An act of jealousy?" Justin asked.
I couldn't believe it. I wouldn't. Not even if she confessed. Kayla wouldn't. She was disgusted by Nathan. Which could have been the reason if it was her.
"I want this girlfriend of yours in here. Call her." Scooter snapped.
-
Nathan:
Nathan!
Nathan is it true?
Are you really pregnant?
Could we have a picture of your bump?
You're disgusting.
Males can't get pregnant.
Nathan!
Nathan!
Nathan!
I breathed out a bunch of air. Jay's hands worked themselves into my back. There was more. More words that people had shouted out. The guard team sent out to help my family, Jay and I couldn't keep the sound of hate from getting to me. I heard a lot.
That demon inside of you can go burn in hell.
Sometimes abortion is good.
Kill yourself. That way it dies and you never have to be this way. You can still go to heaven if you hurry.
The religious group of people threw holy water at us. The guards got it more on them than me, but I felt specks of it.
Once in the van, people pounded on windows, shouting at us. Asking how this happened. If it were true. What I was.
I had only sat in my seat. I couldn't look up to face anyone. My mother sat on one side of me and Jay sat on the other. She put a beanie over my head in attempt to block out the pounders, but they were still there and I still heard all of their words.
Some of them were actually nice which surprised me. These people that were nice pushed away the cruel people away from our van so we could drive away. I heard their words too.
Don't listen to them.
Your child will be beautiful and unique.
I still love you.
I smiled a little hearing the words of the nice people, but the cruel ones easily overpowered them in voices. The hate couldn't stop.
-
We ended up in an apartment. I was placed on a bed. I knew who was inside the apartment with us. Tom, Siva, their girlfriends, Mom, Jess, Kev, Jeffrey, Dr. Sutton and of course Jay.
I had been checked over by Dr. Sutton who said the reason I was quiet was because I had become overwhelmed and extremely stressed out. He talked about me more with my mom, but I didn't hear. I think I was moved to the bed purposely so I wouldn't hear him say anything else.
Tom's new girlfriend was in the bedroom with Jay and I too. She was nice. I liked her. She gave me some orange juice and a bowl of carrots. I didn't touch them. I couldn't bring myself to eat or drink anything. I wanted answers.
Why would Max tell everyone?

Max:
When Kayla came in Scooter's office, she sent me a glare and sat in the chair Justin offered her.
Was everyone mad at me?
"Kayla?" Scooter asked.
"That's me. Scooter Braun and Justin Bieber. Aren't I a lucky girl to be in here with you two handsome gentlemen." Kayla said.
I glared at her. She was trying to make me jealous of them, but why? Kayla never tries to make me jealous.
"Flattered. Now, do you know Nathan Sykes?" Scooter asked.
Kayla's face screwed up in disgust. Because of what he was, what he carried, she hated him. I did too once. Now I wasn't so sure I hated him anymore. I couldn't hate him. He was, is my brother. My brother was going through a tough time right now and I'm not there. My brother is having my child soon. That sounded strange, but it was true.
It was all confusing to me.
I loved Kayla. At the moment I was sure she didn't feel the same about me right now because she kept glaring at me from the corner of her eyes. Nathan was only a bandmate. I didn't love him and I knew I never would. Besides he had Jay now. As much as I loved Kayla and would do anything for her, I couldn't let my little brother get exposed. I wouldn't allow anymore to hurt him when he was getting hurt. Scooter said he was quiet right now.
"What about him?" Kayla asked.
"Max here has told us that you know about him being a hermaphrodite. A male that can reproduce." Scooter said.
"Yes he has. I think it's wrong." Kayla said.
"Why? I think it's cool." Justin said.
Kayla threw him a dirty look.
"Men aren't supposed to reproduce." Kayla said speaking to Justin.
"Kayla, did you tell anyone about what Mr. Sykes is or anything about Max being the father of his child?" Scooter asked.
"I did." Kayla said.
She said it so simply. She answered the question like it wasn't a big deal. It was my fault. I never told her not to tell anyone. She didn't know.
"I told my friend. She's the lovely brunette reporter outside." Kayla said.
The pretty blue-eyed brunette woman already knew?
"What about me being the father?" I asked.
"Nothing yet. I thought you should tell me and Nathan about the third person you're having a child with first before I tell." Kayla said.
Third person? I thought back to anyone drunken nights.
"Third person?" Scooter asked.
"I heard him on the phone this morning with some bitch. Getting baby supplies for her and her baby. What about me? He hasn't got anything for our children yet and I'm the one he's public with." Kayla spat.
On the phone? Oh shit.
"Kayla that was Nathan's sister. She's 15. I haven't even touched her." I said.
Kayla looked embarrassed. Her face was red already, but she didn't look apologetic.
"Why were you calling her?" Kayla asked.
"I wanted to do something nice for Nathan. I have two girls whose lives I can be apart of, but my son's father hates me. I wanted to be apart of his life a little by buying his things for him." I said.
Scooter's face soften a bit.
"You said just last night you didn't care about him." Kayla snapped.
"I helped make him. I don't even know him. I've never been there for Nathan or felt my son kick, but I love him. Change of heart you could say. He's mine too." I said.
"That's disgusting. Like hell you're coming near my daughters." Kayla said.

Nathan:
I sat up after hearing Max's words. Scooter had texted Jay, telling Jay to put him on speaker phone when he called.
When Scooter called, Kelsey, Jay and I heard Max talking. We heard what he said. We heard what Kayla said. We heard Scooter and Justin's added comments.
Max hadn't done it.
It was Kayla.
The key words that I held on hard to were Max's words that he cared about Shocker. He loved Shocker.
Jay hung up after Kayla started to curse, but I didn't care about her. I turned towards Kelsey and Jay and opened my mouth.
"I want Max here."
