~*Cassidy’s POV*~
"What the hell was he doing here! At my school of all places after he had the nerve to have sex with me more than once, then never call me again. That jerk, that ass face jerk." Was all I could think about as I sat in my seat with my face getting hot with anger.
"What about you Cassidy, do you know the answer to X Times X?"
"Uhh um 2X?" I said obviously not paying attention.
"No Cassidy it’s---"
"X Squared." Xavier said finishing the teachers sentence. I turned around to see him looking at me so I gave him a your going to die, don’t ever talk to me again asshole stare then turned around.
"Correct Xavier, See class his first day and he know’s more answer’s than you all have answered in a day!"
"*Cough* Show off *cough*" One of the kids hollered from the back.
"Richie your about to get detention another outburst like that.”
“Sorry Mrs. Cope It won’t happen again … today!” The boy said.
“Okay. So when you guy’s come back on Wednsday were going to talk about the project that you need to graduate." Mrs. Copleman said as the bell rang. I rushed out the classroom and ran into the restroom just in time for me to throw up all of my breakfast and in class snack that I was dying to eat this morning, my emotions were all over the place I sat on the bathroom floor crying, and leaning my head back on the wall in the bathroom stall, when I looked down I noticed like a fool I had on Xavier's jacket, I started to laugh at the fact i still had feelings for this guy, then I got angry again and took it off, I had on a medium size shirt underneath so you couldn’t tell I was three weeks pregnant by that demon jerk of an ex boy friend. The one minuet bell rung so I gathered my things flushed the toilet again, washed my face then pulled a piece of gum out of my purse and walked slowly out of the bathroom looking left and right trying not to get caught by the hall monitor or any other lingering kids hanging out in the halls.
"Cassidy! Hey, Cassidy." Xavier said breathing hard as he ran to catch up with me.
"Leave me alone shit face, and here take your sweater back." I threw the sweater in his face and opened my locker.
"We need to talk what lunch do you have?"
"The lunch that your NOT in!!" I threw my books in my locker and walked into my second period class late again, closing the door behind me.
~*Xavier’s POV*~
My first day at my new school and to my surprise, my girlfriend or should I say ex girlfriend goes to the same school, I knew I could get away with being late cause I was new and all so I walked over to my second class and waited for lunch to find out more about Cassidy.
"Hey Xavier, over here!" Heather yelled across the lunch room.
"Hey you guys, what’s up?"
"Nothing much!" The two said in unison.
"How’s your first day Xavier?"
"It was good, Cassidy rejected me!"
"You talked to her! Your more than bold dude!" Heather said sounding shocked.
"Yeahhh. So?"
"So what did she say? I have to hear this!!"
"She said leave me alone shit face." I said with a half smile.
"Woah, and why the hell are you smiling? She dissed your ass! I told you not to talk to her but what did you do? Waltz your hard head ass up to her and talked to her anyway, I don’t know what up with her but not trying to gossip or anything but she use to be really cool and out going last year but when we came back she only talked to her two friends. She’s right you are a shit face!!" Heather said eating and laughing.
"Wow! But no, I’m smiling because I know by the end of this month I’m going to get Cassidy Ericson!" I said smiling and throwing my trash away.
"Is that a bet?" Heather said with one eyebrow raised, and leaning back in her seat with her arms crossed on her chest.
"I wouldn’t say bet, more of … I paused … more like a promise."
"Umm No I say bet so fine your on, but what do I get if you dont get Cassidy?"
"What do you want?"
"A date you and me any where and time I want!" She said with a serious face.
"Uhh, I don’t know---"
"Huh what cha say ... I didn’t hear you were you surrendering...Cause it sounds like you were surrendering Mr. Newsome."
"Okay fine if you win you get a date if I win, you have to ... Dress girly! For a month."
"What I dress girly girls wear skinny jean and ed hardy shirts!, And look I have on bracelets and earrings."
"Yeah they wear that stuff...if there trying out to be in the care bears on fire band. I’m talking straight or curly hair, dresses, heels, the whole nine." I joked as the bell rung.
“I think I would want to see that Heather!” Snooze said smiling as his head rested on his folded arms.
"Shut up snooze. But Whatever fine but really a whole month, I cant go a month without wearing my Chucks!" Heather pointed to her shoes, white chuck taylor all stars with peoples autographs all over them.
"Oh well you will have to figure out how to live without them." I shrugged as we walked to the Senior parking lot.
"Is that your car?"
"Yeah, you need a ride?"
"Naw, its cool snooze usually give’s me a ride home, see yah tomorrow X squared."
"Ha ha, nice nickname. I hope he’s not going to be sleep on the road, see you later." I said starting my car and pulling out of the school parking lot, I came to a screeching halt when I almost hit Cassidy who was clearly not paying attention to where she was going.
"Holy shit, Cassidy, I could have hit you." I said driving slowly next to her as she walked down the street holding a folder and her purse.
"Why didn’t you just hit me then?"
"Why wern’t you paying attention?"
"Go away!"
"Cassidy, get in the car!!"
"You don’t tell me what to do bastard, you virginity stealing bastard go to hell!!"
"Yeah well I'll meet you there, Cass!!"
"Excuse you?" She said stopping.
"You heard me ..." I said stopping on the side of her and staring her in the eyes, as she walked over to the window.
"You just don’t understand how much I want to kill you right now. If i could I would hit you with this book throw you in the back of this car and burry you in another person grave sight, to never see you again!!" She said with anger in her eyes and sadness also.
"So are you gonna get in the car Cassidy?"
"I want to go straight home, this is the only time you will take me home got it?!"
"Sure it is just get in the car Cassidy!!" I said unlocking the door ignoring the car horns behind me.
"Your feet are swollen, Are you okay?"
"Yeah, just drive okay!!"
"So, first off I’m sorry we haven’t talked in---"
"Three weeks."
"Yeah Three weeks, but I have a reason for that!!"
"Ohh I cant wait to here this, what? what is it Xavier, your dog ate your cell phone? NO, you droped it in the tub ... Ohh Ohh or did you get it cut off because the phone bill was wearing your pay check down?"
"Uhh well, I said sweating a little kind of nervous, Well no, but I did get it cut off but it was only because my sister broke the screen on my phone."
"You know what, I’m finding that hard to believe!!"
"Cassidy I would never lie to you" I said looking at her.
"XAVIER WATCH THE DAMN ROAD!!" Cassidy screamed, as the car swerved left and right.
"God you could have killed us, do you want me to die huh do you?"
"NO, Cassidy I would never--"
"That’s what you want you want me to die, that’s all you would love to see." She said in a whiney tone with tears running down her face.
"Cass." I said touching her shoulder.
"GET OFF OF ME ASSHOLE!" She yelled
"What in the hell, are you posessed or some thing?" I said not meaning to say it out loud.
"No, I’M PREGNANT you dumb ass." I put my foot hard on the breaks and turned to Cassidy, who was crying again.
"What did you just say?"
"That white stuff, the liquid stuff that was all over us after we had sex, yeah I looked it up, It was seman, your seman or sperm that mixed with my egg to make this baby thats growing inside of me. God why didn’t we wear a condom, we we’re so mixed up in our thoughts that’s one this we didn’t think about.." I looked down at her stomach and touched it.
"You mean, I’m going to be a father? At 18! " I said smiling a little.
"I’m getting an abortion, so you don’t have to worry about that mister, I’m not messing up my life because I’m a teen mom. No way!" Cassidy shook her head and waved her hands in dissmissal.
"No your not, your not killing my baby. Do you know what they do to you at those abortion clinics?" I Yelled as she threw my hand off her stomach.
"Oh tone it down, you didn’t even know what your own seman was when we had sex. So how will you tell me what they do there! So will you stop yelling at me?" She said angry and crying at the same time.
“No Cassidy, You just can’t!”
"I already made the appointment Xavier, so whatever!!"
"What day is the appointment?"
"Why do you want to know?"
"Because your going to kill my baby that’s inside of you and I’m going to make sure that’s not going to happen."
"I’m not telling you." She said not making eye contact and looking out the window.
"Look at me Cassidy, LOOK AT ME, I will find out, you’re not going to kill my baby." I said pulling up to her house.
"The funny thing is Xavier, Even if you didn’t call those three and a half weeks I bet you never even thought about just driving over to see me...Did you? … She said with the door half open as I sat in the car silent … Yep, I thought so!" Cassidy slammed the door and walked up to the steps to her front door not even looking back.
"Damn it ... I yelled as I drove off and slowly parked the car banging my hand on the steering wheel … She going to kill my baby, my mother fucking baby!" I said between sobbs, As hot tears rolled down my face … I have to stop this, I won’t let her go through with that, I wont!" I finally said as I drove off in the direction of my sisters school thinking of ways to keep Cassidy from going through with the abortion.
