Chapter 6

Liz sat in her room for a long time contemplating exactly what to say to her parents. She knew that in the long run, things would work out but she couldn’t stand to see the looks on their faces when she told them. Could they really be mad at her considering the circumstances?
After what felt like forever, she threw her self onto her bed. Muffling her face with her pillow, she screamed out as loud as possible. She could not believe this situation.
“You know suffocating yourself isn’t going to make this any better.” Maria said laughing.
“Oh, hey.” Liz said sitting up. “You finally off?”
“Yea, just a few minutes ago. When did Max leave?”
“Awhile ago. I am going to call him later after I talk with my parents.”
“Oh…” Maria mumbled. “You’re going to tell them tonight?”
Liz just nodded her response. She felt like crying. No matter what the situation is, telling you’re parents your pregnant at this age is never going to be an easy task.
“Chica, don’t worry. Your parents love you and they know you would never do this intentionally, and I am sure they will support you. Especially after you tell them what Kim did.”
Liz looked at Maria, then quickly looked down. “How do I tell them about that? I mean what do I say? They are going to flip when they hear what she did. I really don’t care what happens to her after all is said and done but I really don’t want deal with all of it. I would rather just put it behind me and forget that dumb skank!”
“Well for starters, you will just tell them the truth! You were not even drinking that night Liz. You were the picture perfect daughter who was having a good time and got screwed over! Your parents aren’t dumb, they will understand” Maria stood up and hugged Liz. “I hate to leave you, but I promised my Mom I’d help her with some stuff at the store. Are you feeling any better?”
Liz wiped her eyes and smiled. “Much better. Thanks Maria. You are completely right. I just have to tell them everything. I guess I should get it over with soon huh?”
“Yeah, probably.” Maria said. “Tell you what, after you talk with them and call Max, why don’t you call me and you can tell me how it all went down over some ice cream and some major chick flicks. I think Alex is due for some chick flicks too. I’ll call him and tell him he has a date with his two gorgeous girls tonight. Alright?”
“That sounds really good Maria. After tonight I will probably need to wind down. Thanks hun, I love ya and I will call you right away.”
“Ok, well I will see you later!” Maria said as she left.
Liz stood up and prepared herself for an emotional rollercoaster as she walked towards the living room to find her parents.

~Max~
I walk into my kitchen to get a drink. I have a little while before my father gets home and I am completely terrified of what he is going to do. My mother will be less than thrilled to say the least, but she will not be nearly as horrible as my father. Why did this have to happen. I sit down at the table with a glass of juice and put my head down.
“Yo, what’s up man?” Michael walks in asking.
“Nothing much, just thinking about how screwed up my life is right now.”
“Wow, well that sucks.” Michael says sitting down next to him; then, changing the subject to get his friend’s mind off the current situation. “Are you going to watch the hockey game tonight?”
“No, I have to talk with my parents, then call Liz and then probably not too much more.” Max said sighing. “Who knows what will be happening after tonight.”
“Hey, it’s not going to be that bad. I mean how does Liz feel right now?” Michael asked.
“You know, she is being eerily calm about all this. She told me that its completely my choice whether or not I want to be apart of the baby’s life. I never expected to be offered the easy way out, but I can just waltz out like nothing ever happened if I choose to. Do you think that’s screwed up?”
“She honestly doesn’t care what you do? I don’t know, I mean Liz is a smart girl, but most women I know would never let you slide. What are you going to do?”
“I have no clue yet.” Just then the front door slams shut. “I guess that’s my dad. I might as well just go and get this all over with. The longer I postpone this the better chance I have of going insane.”
“Alright, I will be watching the game. Swing by if you want to. Later.” Michael stood up and walked out.
Max stood up and walked towards the den. He stood by the door and looked at his parents. He let out a deep breath and prepared for the worst.
**************************************
~Liz~
Oh my god… oh my god… oh my god… Why are those like the only words my brain can come up with right now. Is that what I am going to say to my parents? Ok breathe. Deep breaths in, and out. Oh my god, now I acting like I am in labor. Ok just go.
“Mom, Dad can I talk to you guys for a minute? It’s really important, and I just really need to do it now before I run out of this room hyperventilating.” I rushed out in one quick breathe.
“Sure honey. Are you alright? Are you sick or is there something wrong with school? What is it?” my mother asked me.
“Well, I really don’t know how to say all this, so I guess lets just all sit down and I will come out and say it ok?”
My dad looked at me strangely. “Ok, you can tell us anything sweetie, we love you.”
They both stared at me expectantly. They looked so scared. “Ok, I know this is going to sound so strange… but… well… you see…Ok I will just start from the beginning. I went to a party at Kim’s house about two months ago. I really didn’t even want to go but since I just broke up with Kyle, Kim really wanted to cheer me up. So I went with Maria and Alex. We got there and Kim got me and Maria some drinks. She told me that they were safe and had no alcohol in them because I did not want to drink. Well, it turns out that she spiked my drink.”
“Well that’s not your fault honey. Is that what this is about? I’ve been wondering why I haven’t seen her around. Is that why you are so upset?” my dad asked.
“No, that’s not all dad. There is so much more… She didn’t just spike my drink with alcohol, she put ecstasy in my drink.” They both gasped and I dared not look up to see their faces. “Wait, please just let me finish. I ended up feeling really sick and Kim sent me up to a room to lie down and go to sleep, but she sent someone else up there too. I woke up in the morning and I was not alone.” Tears were rolling down my cheeks by now and I was lightly sobbing. I knew my parents were waiting for me to go on so I sucked it in and went on. “I had sex for the first time with someone I barely know. I left the room and went downstairs to find Kim. She told me that she tried to set me up with Kyle so that we would have a “good” time but that someone else drank the mix instead so she just went along with it anyway. She planned it all and when I found out I told her that I did not want to speak to her again. Things were fine for awhile. I didn’t talk to her or to the guy, I just minded my own business, but a couple days ago I realized something.” I finally looked up and saw the look of realization come over my moms face. She ran over and hugged me with tears rolling down her face. I pulled back. I had to just say it. “I found out I am a little over 2 months… pregnant.” I started sobbing. “I am so.. so… sorry. I never meant for it to happen.
By now both my parents were hugging me and rubbing my back.
“Shh.. it’s ok. We know you didn’t mean for it to happen. This is not your fault.”
I looked into my dad’s eyes, “please don’t be disappointed in me. Please don’t. I am so sorry.” I latched onto his shoulders, crying with all my might. He managed to ease me back down to a sitting position on the couch. “Sweetie, I am not disappointed in you. I am disappointed with Kim. Does her father know about this? About what kind of things go on in his own home?”
I shook my head no.
My mother jumped in. “Honey, we love you so much and we will work through this. I have to ask though, who is the father? Do we know him?”
My eyes went wide and then looked down. “I am sure you do. His name is Max Evans.”
My mom looks at me in shock. “Max Evans as in football star, Max Evans. Son of Phillip and Diane Evans?”
I nod my head yes.
“Well have you told him yet? What do his parents think? I think we need to get together and all contact Kim’s parents. You have done nothing wrong and neither has he. This is a horrible situation but we will take care of it.”
“I told him I would call him after I was done telling you. I just told him last night. He is supposed to be telling his parents this evening too. We planned on having a big meeting with all of you. Just… I really don’t want to deal with Kim anymore mom. I am so done with her crap. Please, can you just leave me out of that?”
“Sure honey, you don’t have to worry. However, I will deal with it. This will not just get left alone. That girl needs to be straightened out and I would like to do it as soon as possible.”
“I know mom.”
“Honey, what do you want to do? Have you considered all your options or decided anything yet. I hate to even ask you right now, but have you considered having an abortion? You are so young and this was not planned at all. Maybe that would be for the best.” My dad says.
I look up at him. “Yes dad, I have thought it through. I cannot have an abortion. I can’t kill an innocent baby. MY baby. It may not have been my fault or anything but the baby is mine and I cannot just get rid of something that is a part of me.”
My mom starts crying again. “I understand sweetie. What about adoption? You could give the baby to a really nice family and you can even check in and make sure everything is fine. You could still do everything you planned.”
“Mom, I’m sorry but no. I cannot just give my baby…or your grandchild… up. It would haunt me forever. I would always be wondering and worrying. I couldn’t do that. This baby deserves to know the truth, not just be tossed away because I need to do things. It’s my baby and there is no way I could just hand it over to some stranger. I’m sorry. This is the only way. I have to keep it.”
My dad sighs. “I am not saying I am happy, but I support you in whatever decision you make. Just think about it all thoroughly. Ok? It’s a big decision.”
“I will Dad, but… I can’t do anything else.”
“Sweetie, why don’t you go rest for a little while. I will get you something to drink. You need to stop crying and relax for a little bit. When you feel better, call… Max… and set up the meeting. Your father and I need to talk for a little while.” She hugged me and then I went to my father and hugged him once more too.
“I love you Lizzy. Just remember that. We are here for you so do not worry. Things will work out ok? I am so sorry that this happened to you baby.” He kissed my forehead and I followed my mom into the kitchen for some water. I dragged myself to my room and plopped on the bed. One talk was exhausting. How am I supposed to get through two more? God my head is pounding. I hate crying.
******************************
~Max~
I walk into the den and my mother is sitting on the couch.
“Where’s Dad?” I ask.
“Oh, he just ran to his study to get something. Why?”
“I just want to talk to you two. It’s kind of important.” I tell her.
“Oh, ok well he will be back down in just a second. Just sit down with me and we will wait.” She smiled.
A moment later my father walk in. “Hey son. What are you up to this evening? When does summer football practice start?”
“In about two weeks, but I have something I really need to tell you guys.” I watch as he sits down and both my parents wait for me to continue.
“I was at a party about 2 months ago. The girl who was running it was trying to set up this guy, Kyle, with her friend. She wanted to them to have fun together. She spiked two drinks with ecstasy and gave it both of them. However, Kyle gave me his drink not know knowing what was in it and got himself another one. I drank it instead of him. Afterwards….”
“Wait just one second! Has anyone found out about this? Do you realize that this could ruin you? What if your coach gave you a random drug test? What would you do then? I can’t even begin to understand what you were thinking Max!” my father yelled.
My mother shot him a death glare. “Phillip! Honestly. Max are you ok? You didn’t get hurt did you?”
“No, mom. I am fine, and no dad. No one but Isabel and a few friends know about it.”
“I’m sorry, I did not mean to yell like that but you have to be careful. If that got out, colleges could decide to not give you scholarships, or not even let you attend! It doesn’t matter whose fault it was, in the end, it would be your fault!” he explained.
“I know, believe me dad, I know. However, it gets worse. Please just let me get it out. The next morning I woke up in bed with a girl, Liz Parker. Neither of us fully remembered what happened, but… Oh God… Mom… Dad, I’m so sorry. Liz is pregnant and I am the father.”
“WHAT? You got her pregnant? I cannot believe you Maxwell! Are you stupid? What are you going to do?”
I knew this was how my father would react. I knew not to hope for the best so I do not know why I am staring at him dumbfounded.
“Phillip, calm down!”
“No Diane, I will not calm down!”
“Dad, I am so sorry. I didn’t even know what I was doing. I really didn’t mean for it to happen!”
“Hold on, just stop right now!” He put his head down for just a second. Then he looked up excitedly! “Hold on, you say you don’t even remember anything happening right? How do you know this isn’t just some scheme for her? This baby might not even be yours!”
I jump up then. “No dad, Liz is the smartest person I know. She doesn’t need me like that. Besides, she lost her virginity that night.”
“Honey, how do you know that?” my mother questioned.
“You can be so naive Max. How do you know that she wasn’t just telling you that. This is a small town. People will do anything to get out of it!” he pleaded with me.
“Damnit, she’s telling the truth! Her blood was all over the sheets…Hell…all over me! Do you want me to bring you them? You can even have them DNA tested to make sure that the blood wasn’t just a fake part of her scheme!”
“Sweetie, call down. You have to understand how much of shock this is.” my mother soothed. “Have you and this girl, Liz, discussed this yet? What does she plan to do? You have to consider the options. There is always abortion or adoption.”
“Your mother is right Max. She cannot have this baby. It will not only ruin her life, but yours also!”
“Liz doesn’t believe in getting an abortion and she says she doesn’t want to give it up. She’s going to keep it.”
“No, Max.” My father stood up and started pacing. “This is unacceptable. You cannot have this baby! I will not allow it! I don’t care what she wants, she will not ruin your future. You have worked to hard!”
“Liz is not making me do anything. She told me to discuss it with two first. To weigh my options before I make a decision.”
“Well, that’s an easy decision Max. Tell her that you will not claim this child. If she wants money, fine, we will give it but you will not claim that baby!” My dad looked at me. “I have work to do. I can’t talk about this anymore. My answer is final Maxwell. You are to have nothing to do with this baby. I will handle everything! Understood?” Without waiting for an answer he stormed off to his study.
I looked up at my mother. She had tear streaks on her face. “ I am really sorry Mom. I don’t know what else to do now.”
“Sweetie, don’t worry. Things will work out. Your father will calm down and then we will figure out how we are going to handle everything.”
“Mom, do you agree with him about not claiming the baby as mine?”
“I hate to say it, but yes. You need to take care of yourself first. How can you take care of a baby Max? Your too young and you have so much ahead of you. You need to do those things first!”
“I know.” I put my head in my hands. “We have to arrange a meeting with Liz’s parents so we can discuss all the options together. This does not just involve us and I think we need to do it right away. Can you and Dad meet with them tomorrow evening?”
“Sure sweetie. Just find out a definite time and place. I will talk to your father. You better just go to sleep and stay out of his way tonight. I love you honey.”
“I love you too Mom. Thanks for not yelling and being reasonable enough to talk to me. I will tell you the plans in the morning. I walk over and give her a kiss on the cheek then head up to my room. Liz should be calling anytime soon.
*******************************
~Liz~
I slowly open my eyes. My head is still throbbing from everything that happened tonight. I should probably call Max. Shit. I jump out of bed. Its already 9:30, he is probably wondering what I am doing.
I pick up the phone and dial his home number.
“Hello?” a female voice answers.
“Hi, is Max home?” I ask. Please do not let this be his mother. Please, oh please.
“Sure. Is this Liz?” she asks.
“Yes.”
“Oh hey, this is his sister Isabel. Let me go get him for you ok.” I hear her footsteps walking and then her yell out something.
A moment later he picks up. “Liz?”
“Hey Max. How are you?” I ask tiredly.
“I am ok. You sound pretty tired.”
“Yeah, I laid down to take a quick nap and I just woke up. My head is pounding. Sorry it took so long for me to call.”
“That’s ok Liz. So…”
“How did things go with your parents?” I ask nervously.
“Well, both of them are pretty upset. Well my dad is actually quite pissed. He just keeps telling me how stupid I am and how this will ruin my entire future. You know, exactly what I expected to hear.”
“Oh Max, I’m sorry. Look I told you, I do not want this to be a big deal. If it is going to be a problem then you don’t have to do anything. I am not going to force you into something.” I say.
“I know Liz….. SHIT!… sorry. I just don’t know what to do. I have not made any official decisions yet. I want to all get together first.”
“That’s fine Max. Take your time. I understand.”
“So how did your parent‘s take it?”
“They were shocked to say the least. But after I told them what my decision was, they understood. They are actually being pretty great. At first they wanted me to have an abortion but I explained that I couldn’t do that. So they have agreed to support me in any way they can.”
“That’s good. Should I come prepared for a near death experience tomorrow? I mean, is your dad going to try to kill me?”
I laugh. “No, he was more worried about Kim than you. My mom is mad and says she’s going to call Kim’s parents. She wants your parents to be there also when she does it.”
“I don’t know. My dad is all scared that it will get out that I had ecstasy. He will freak out if there is any extra attention brought to it.”
“Well, my mom is set on doing it. They will have to discuss that. It’s out of my hands.” I stifle a yawn.
“You’re tired and you really need rest. You shouldn’t be too stressed. What do your parents think about getting together? My mom said tomorrow could work. Maybe in the evening?”
“Yeah, maybe we could meet around 6 o’clock. Maria and Alex wanted to come too. Do you think that would be a problem. They are my best friends and I really want them there.”
“Yeah, that’s fine. Maybe I should have Michael and Isabel over too. They are all going to be affected in someway by our decision. If you want we can meet over at my house then. There is plenty of room here.”
“Ok, that sounds great.
“Ok, well get to sleep Liz and take care of yourself. You really need to take it easy ok?”
I smile “Ok, Max, I will. Goodnight.”
“Goodnight” he says.
I lay back down on my bed. How sweet. He is worried about me being too stressed. I guess I should call Maria. I pick up and dial her.
After I hang up I get into my pajamas. Maria and Alex will be here soon. Maybe they can take my mind off tomorrow. I wonder what Max is going to decide.
