Book 2: Growing Up

Deanna’s P.O.V.
I got to Jimmy’s home and came inside. None of the cars were here so his father and mother was probably out.
“Jimmy?” I called for him and heard nothing. I never hear nothing in this house. The thought of Jimmy not even being not never crossed my mind. I came up the stairs, scared out of my life. Thoughts of Jimmy being dead or bleeding on the floor was scaring the life out of me. Slowly, I came to his bedroom, opening the door and saw my baby on the bed looking like he was asleep. My mind couldn’t compute it though. I came to his bed, sitting beside him and shook him gently.
“Jimmy?” I asked lightly. Usually he would get up when I did this. I came and kissed his cheek, trying to be as sweet as I could to him. He wasn’t waking up.
“Jimmy!” I said louder and shook him harder. He wasn’t moving! I started to panic. I rolled him onto his back seeing the blood stain on his sheets and screamed. His eyes were closed and my body was shaking. Tears were already streaming down my face. I fumbled for my phone which fell, I quickly grabbed it and called 9-1-1 and stared down at him. Telling the operator everything. She of course put me on hold. I let out a line of curse words and tried to wake Jimmy up again. I got off of the phone and tried the mouth to mouth thing with him, crying out his name. I held his hand and tried everything I could to wake him up but I couldn’t.
My baby wasn’t waking up.
Matt’s P.O.V.
Getting the call from the doctors saying that the child wasn’t Jimmy’s but was mine was a real freaking shocker. Then the other shocker was Zacky trying to bribe the doctor and say that it was his, which he actually got in a lot of trouble for. There was just something off there. Then also finding out that my best friend committed suicide by his girlfriend who was crying uncontrollably, Jimmy’s mom and dad splitting up, there was just so much drama in this life.
I came out of my car, telling Katie I would call her back soon with her friend on the line and rushed inside the hospital. I asked for Jimmy and they gave me his room number. This guy better be up so I could smack him for pulling something like this. Of course, he was and Deanna was holding onto him, kissing him to pieces and telling him to never do something like that again.
I cleared my throat and Deanna pulled away. I gave a small smile.
“Go call Katie honey,” I smiled. She nodded giving Jimmy a long kiss and left out of the room pulling out her phone. I came inside, shutting the door behind me and came and sat down beside him.
‘Hey man,” I smiled lightly.
“Hi,” He whispered looking down to his hands. I sighed and held his.
“Who told you man?” I asked, I know why he did this. Someone told him that Sam wasn’t his kid. To be honest, he deserved to be more of a father to the baby then anyone else.
“Zacky,” He whispered, “H-he talked me down again,” Jimmy whispered. I rolled my eyes.
“Jimmy-”
“Matt,” He took his hand away from mine and glared at me.
“You slept with Deanna, you know how … sour I feel about that? Do you even get how much pain I am? Man I am scared about this, having Sam not being my kid? That’s me and Deanna’s baby…we talked about her ever since we found out Deanna was pregnant. I feel like dying,”
“Yeah but you know what?” I said kind of mad about this, “You just tried to shove Deanna away, your baby, even us Jimmy. We know your going through a hard time-”
“Your not there!” Jimmy cried, “No one is there for me!” He screamed, “No one in school helps me! Deanna was there when you guys weren’t! Brian was to stuck up on girls, Johnny was to busy being brother to Deanna, you were high and mighty on us being in a band and no one even saw how much Zacky was hurting me! So get out of my face Sanders,” He said, I saw the tears streaming down his face. I felt my heart break knowing how much my friend was right.
“Fine,” I whispered, “I…I’ll pick you up later,” I whispered and left out the door.
