He's Yours

Brian and I were sitting in the ultrasound place as I got cold jelly shit squirted on my stomach.
“Listen do you hear the heart beat?” The tech asked
“Yeah.” I smiled at Brian
“So Brian are you the dad?” She asked
“God father.” He said
“Where’s the father?” She asked
“At home.” I said
I was still going with Zack was the dad for now.
“Well Brice you’re having a very healthy boy.” She said
I smiled and knew what his name was going to be.
“Here’s your pictures. You two have a nice day.” She said giving Brian the pictures and me something to clean my tummy off with.
“Let’s go to the grave.” He said I nodded.
We drove to the grave site and found Jimmy’s. I sat down and looked down at the marble headstone.
“Hey Jimmy it’s Brice and Brian is here too. I needed to tell you something very important. I’m pregnant, and he’s yours. It didn’t hit me that he was yours until last night but we thought that I should tell you before I tell Zacky. I know what I’m going to name our son Jimmy and I hope you’re okay with it. His name is going to be James Own Sullivan Junior. I was going name him that if he was Zacky’s either way he was going to be named after you. I love you Jimmy, I’ll come back and visit a lot.” I said I placed one of the ultrasound pictures and stood up Brian pulled me into a hug.
“Time to tell Zacky.” He said I nodded and got into his car.
We drove back to Zacky’s, when we got there his mom’s car was in the driveway. “FUCK MY LIFE!” I screamed
“What?” Brian asked
“His mom hates me, and now I’m pregnant and Zacky thinks it’s his. Now Zacky’s going to hate me.” I said getting out of the car.
I walked in and Zacky was laying on the couch asleep.
“Hi Brice.” His mom said
“Hi Miss Baker.” I said
“You’re pregnant?” She asked
I just nodded. I walked over to Zacky. I shook him slightly to wake him.
“Hey you’re home.” He said with his sexy sleepy voice
“I need to talk to you in your room.” I said
He looked confused and got up a followed me into his room. “
Oh by the way you’re allowed to stay here. I explained to my mom what happened.” He said
“Okay. I really need to tell you something and it might break your heart.” I said “What is it?” He asked sounding worried
“This baby isn’t yours. Zacky I’m sorry but it hit me last night, I had a dream slash flashback thingy and it hit me like a rock.” I said
“Who is the dad?” He asked I turned towards the mirror and watched him sit there looking like he was going to break up with me.
“He’s Jimmy’s baby Zacky. Hear me out, it was a month or two before you said anything to me and it was just us in his living room. I swear things just happened.” I said
“I’m so glad you said Jimmy. I thought you were going to say it was some guy at school. Brice I’ll take care of it like it’s mine.” He said crying
“It’s a boy and he has a name.” I smiled
“What is it? And we’re having a son.” He smiled
“James Owen Sullivan Junior.” I said
He pulled my arm and sat me on his lap.
“I should have realized that I was too pregnant for this baby to be yours. Zacky I’m sorry.” I said
“Calm down Brice. I’m not mad.” He said
I slid off his lap and laid down. He looked at me and placed his hand on my stomach.
“I’m going to be the best god dammed father to Jimmy’s baby.” He said
“Zacky I love you. I’m going to stay at Brian’s for a few okay? He needs me.” I said “Okay, and he needs someone with him. I don’t want him to drink himself till he needs his stomach pumped again.” He said
“Thanks. I’m going to drive over there.” I said He smiled and got up off of his bed, he pulled me into a standing position.
“Graduation is soon.” He said
“I know.” I said
“I love you Brice, this isn’t goodbye.” He said
I wrapped my arms around his neck and nuzzled my nose into the crook of it.
“I’m going to be there for him, don’t ever think that you are going to be alone. You have me forever, and the guys. I know Jimmy was a big part but you are the glue Brice, we need you to stay together. I’ll be over at Brian’s around noon tomorrow.” He said kissing me
I kissed back and pulled away. I walked out of his room and into the living room, his mom was standing there.
“I’ll see you around Miss. Baker.” I said I walked out to my car that has been sitting in his driveway for like a month, I got it and started it. I drove to my mom’s house; I wasn’t going to Brian’s yet. On the drive I called Brian and told him to meet me at my mom’s, he said he’d be there in thirty minutes. I pulled into my mom’s driveway and walked up to the front door and knocked.
“Brice!” She yelled pulling me into a hug
“Hi mom.” I said hoping she didn’t feel my four month baby bump.
“Are you moving back in? Wait are you pregnant?” She asked feeling my tummy. “No I’m not moving back in and yes I am. I came here to see if you still had that car seat.” I said
“Yeah it’s in your room.” She said
I walked in there and grabbed a few things and made a few trips out to my car. Just clothes, notebooks, shoes and my electronics. I grabbed the car seat and also put it in my car. My mom looked at me.
“Who’s the dad?” She asked
“Jimmy.” I said
“Isn’t he dead?” She asked
“Yeah. Zack’s going to take care of him.” I said
“Good. I love you Brice, if you need anything come to me.” She said
I nodded and drove my car next door. I sat in it waiting on Brian to knock on the window.
“What are we doing here?” He asked
“I need to go in.” I said pushing the key into the dead bolt
“We haven’t been in here in months.” He said walking in.
“I changed my mind, I can’t do it.” I said
He rolled his eyes and pulled me into the house.
“Whoa smells like rank food in here.” Brian said walking into the kitchen.
“This place needs cleaned.” I said
“Lets clean out the kitchen and make it smell nice.” He said
“I don’t want it to change. Is it bad if I want to live here?” I asked
“You really miss him don’t you?” Brian asked
“Yeah and I’m having his baby. I feel like I want to live here but then I’d feel bad for living here because Zack would have to be with me.” I said
“Jimmy would want it. I hope you know that, he loved you Brice, he’d want you to be happy.” Brian said
“Lets get to your house. Zack will be at your house at noon tomorrow.” I said
“Okay, leave your car. we’ll all come over and clean out the smelly things out.” Brian said
“I’ll clean his room, like the bottles and other shit.” I said
We left Jimmy’s house and drove to Brian’s mom’s apartment.
“Mom we’re here.” He called out
“Where’s our little preggers?” She asked coming into the room
“Hi Miss. Haner.” I smiled walking towards here.
“How long are you here for hun?” She asked
“I don’t know, I think Zacky’s mad at me so maybe a while.” I said
“Well you know you’re welcome here whenever. You can stay in Brian’s old room or McKenna’s room.” She said
Brian has one biological brother named Brent, one step brother named Johnny and one half-sister named McKenna. McKenna and I are pretty good friends for her being a year younger than me.
“Is McKenna here?” I asked
“She will be soon, her boyfriend is driving her home.” She said
“When did she get a boyfriend?” I asked
“The day before James died. She didn’t want to tell you because you had so much on your mind.” She said I nodded understanding.
“So you told Zachary I’m guessing.” She said
“Brian do you tell your mom everything?” I asked
“Yes I do.” He smiled
“Well that’s good, I’ve never had that kind of relationship with my mom.” I said “Well Brice I’m always here.” She said
“Thank you Miss. Haner.” I said as Brian pulled me to his room. I walked in and sat on my bed and I couldn’t hold it in anymore, I just started to bawl my eyes out.
“Don’t cry.” Brian said coming over to me
“I remember when I meet all of you guys.” I said “Ten years ago, we all took to you but with Jimmy it was like instant for him.” He said
“I admit that when I first met you guys I hated Jimmy, his voice annoyed me. But now I miss his funny voice and his lisp, even the tattoo of the naked girl on his back that I hated so much. I miss his ‘Sullivan’ tattoo and I’m reminded of that every time Zack takes his shirt off. I miss his beautiful blue eyes and the way they shined when everyone was together, I miss his smell he always smelled like... like… like vanilla and Christmas or something like that. I miss all of our fun times when you guys would drink I miss it when Jimmy always tried to get me drunk when he was, and I miss his laugh, his smile. I miss him.” I cried
“Brice I miss him too. I can’t list things like that off but I miss my best friend.” He said “You guys also have four albums recorded with him and I was just there.” I said “You were there and that’s the only thing any of us could have asked for. Even if the band wasn’t going anywhere we’d be happy because you’d be there.” He said
“Just like Jimmy always used to say; Like most bands we're a family, family before band. If we broke up tomorrow, we'd still be friends.” I said
“Exactly like that.” He said
“What’s on the agenda for tomorrow?” I asked
“Well we have an interview and then cleaning time.” He said smiling
