Dear, Mr. Costello. by Ariana Lomeli (e book reader .TXT) 📖

no car! Where are you gonna go?"He yelled after me. "Away from you, asshole."I said and when I got to the teachers parking lot, I threw his keys at his car and ran where my feet took me.

********

Evetually my feet took me to an old abandoned park. It was old, and I bet if I touched thee slide it would collapse. I finally remembered why my feet took me here. It was because this would be the place I went to when things got too tough at home. I sat on the only stable thing in this park. The floor. I brought my knees up to my chest and hugged them to myself. I was gonna drop out. It would save Blake fom losing his job and me from getting in trouble. I laid down on the floor and put my hands on my stomach. I looked up at the sky which was quickly turning dark. I cared about Blake still, even if he said he didn't want the baby or was even ready for it. I felt pain at the bottom of my back. I cried out in pain sitting up quickly which bought more pain. I laid back down vey carefully. If this kept happening then I wasn't gonna be able to drop out tomorrow. The pain suddenly stopped. I sighed in relief. I can just walk home. I stood up and walked in the direction of my house. I wasn't far away from home anyway, why waste gas and phone battery calling someone to pick me up? As I turned the corner I stumbled and fell on my knees because of a fucking pebble. I stood up again and saw my house. With at least two police cars with their lights on but sirens off. I gasped. I ran to the house careful to hide and make sure I could hear the conversation going on between my father and the male police officer. I noticed my father was also in handcuffs. I gasped loudly. No one noticed and so I listened closely. "- and we have evidence of child abuse. I believe you are now officially under arrest mr. Monroe."The police offce said. Were my ears defying me? Was the man whom had hated  me for many years and showed it finally going to jail? How? "How?"He asked the officer. "An anonymous email was sent to us and we don't take any of those emails a joke. Your daughter is Juliet Monre, Is she not?"He asked my father. My father spit. "That child is not mine, nor will she ever be. She deserved everything she got to her. I shoulda killed her the other day like I planned to."He said. "You're under arrest."He said and began to read him his rights. Father was placed into the back of the police car and taken away. As soon as both police cars left I went inside my house and locked the door. I ran up to the bathroom and took a quick shower and fell asleep on my bed.

I awoke with a start. I felt warm between my legs. I jumped out of bed and instantly crumbled to my feet as pain came throbbing in my core. I grabbed my phone as I looked at my bed. My bloody bed. I called Ashley. "What in the fu-" "Ashley, I think I'm having a miscarriage. I need help. I'm calling the ambulance! Come over quick!"I yelled and shut the phone. I called 911 and as I was telling them my situaltion I heard Ashley call my name. I finished telling thee peerson and told them my address and told them to come quick. "Jules? Where are y- oh my god. Get up. Blake she's in her room."She yelled as she came to me. I felt weak, drained of all my energy. I knew something had happened. I knew I lost my baby. I kept quiet and just stared at the bed. Blake came in and I heard sirens. "I'll carry her out there."Blake said as he took me from Ashley's arms. He ran downstairs and opened the front door where a doctor was about to knock on the door.  Blake saw the stretcher and gently put me on it. "What happened to her?"The guy asked Blake. "She thinks she had miscarriage. Tell her it's not true."Blake pleaded. "I have to do a test on her in the truck, you can stay by the door but you can't go in."He said to Blake. Blake was about to protest but I shook my head at him. "George, Lennie get her in the truck."The man said and the others followed. I smiled a bit. They had the same names as George and Lennie in the book Of Mice and Men. "Were going to hve see how dialated you are and see if you actually lost your child."George said. "Okay."I said. "Take off your pants. Do you need help? I'll get your booyfriend."He said. I shook my head and took off my pajama short and my underwear. He pulled down the windoow curtain and proceeded to take the test. After thirty minutes he was done his face saddened. "I'm sorry, were going to have to take you to the hospital to do further testing."He said. "Tell your boyfriend to bring you a pair of clothes."He said as an afterthought. "Do you have a blanket?"I asked him. He nodded nd gave me one. "Can you bring him in here?"I asked him too. He opened the door enough for Blake to see me. "Tell Ashley to give me a set of clothes and a pair of pajamas and I'll meet you guys at the hosptal."I said. Just as George was about to close the door. I bolted up and winced in pin as I did so. I looked at Blake. "I'm sorry for being an ass earlier and running. And I'm sorry for her."I said and pointed towards my stomach. Pain flashed on his face before going blank. George closed the door and hitting on the wall, letting the other two know it was time to go to the hospital.

Once at the hospital, I was rushed to a room and put on a different bed. I laid on th bed and looked at the ceiling. This is all my fault. If I hadn't ran from Blake I would've been okay and going home? I fell. Stupid move. I blamed myself entirely. The door opened but I kept my stare on the ceiling. Those thoughts I had of Blake holding our baby girl was gone. Now, I just felt empty. I felt cold. I didn't want to be here anymore. I wanted this baby so bad. I was gonna love her so much. And now I couldn't. My heart sunk at the thought. I had no baby anymore. "It's okay."A voice said. I looked to see Ashley coming from the couch and sitting on the bed with me. Blake got up coming on the other side of the Ashley wasn't on. "I'm okay."I lied. The door opened and in came an elder doctor. Her hair was gray and she looked older than 59. "Hello Juliet. I have the results of your tests. You still have a child and you have a miracle child. If you take these precautions since it is your first time being pregnant then there should be no more problems and if you take the medicine listed on the paper all should be well."She said as she handed me two pieces of paper stapled together. "Do you have any questions?"She asked me. "Why did I lose that much blood? I was sure I lost my child."I said. "These kind of things happen in some pregnancies. And just a precaution. These things do not happen twice."She answered, nodded and left. "Oh, that's wonderful news!"Ashley screamed throwing her arms around me. "Not so loud. You'll wake the others."I said to her and hugged her back. "oH. oK."She whispered and I giggled. I turned to Blake. He was staring at the wall intently. I put a hand on his shoulder. "Can you give us a couple of minutes?"I asked Ashley. "Sure. In fact I'll give you the whole night. I have to go tell Jeff. I kind of left him and ran out without explanation."She said sheepishly. I gave her a look that said we'd talk later. She smiled innocently and ran out. I followed her and saw a bag on the floor. Must be my clothes. I pushed Blake more into the middle of the bed and got on top of him. A surprised look was on his face. "I got the magic in me Every time I touch that track It turns into gold Everybody knows I've got the magic in me When I hit the flow the girls come Snappin' at me Now everybody wants some presto Magic, magic, magic Magic, magic, magic Magic, magic, magic I got the magic in me."I sang to him. He chuckled. "Only you would suddenly brust into song."He said. I looked at him smiling. We both looked into each other's eyes. "I'm sorry."We both said. "I'm sorry for waking you up in false alarm at night for me."I said. "I'm sorry for being a dick and not being there when you needed me."He said. "I have something to say."I said. "What is it?"He asked. I looked away from him and looked at the blank T.V. "I'm dropping out of school."I said and looked at him finally. "This is what you want?"His voice high. "Yes. I can't hndle it and I don't want the stress of being caught coming onto this baby and me actually having a miscarriage. I'll go back right after she's out. I promise you that."I said. "You're gonna drop out. And I'm gonna force you to go back."He said determinedly. I nodded my head. "Exactly."I said. "When?"He asked me. "Tomorrow."I said. I laid my head on his chest and wrapped my legs round his legs. "But you know what?"I asked seriously. He tilted his head looking at me curiously. I went up to his ear. "I'm gonna want you more."I said gently nipping his ear before pulling away. His breath caught in his throat. He lifted my head so I could look at him. He suddenly smiled evilly. "Oh, I know."He said and just as he was about to kiss me the door opened and I quickly climed on the side and pushed him off. I smirked at him on the floor. "Smooth."I commented. "Oh shut up."He said. The doctor looked like she was about holding herself back from laughing. It was a different doctor. She looked about Blake's age. And she was pretty cute She looked at Blake and checked him out. I felt like punching her. Wasn't she here for something else besides checking out my boyfriend? I cleared my throat whilst glaring at her. She glared at me right back before she looked down at the bottle of pills in her hand. She shook her head and sighed. She came over to me and gave me the bottle of pills and sniffed. She stiffened and looked like she thinking hard about something. She suddenly bowed while Blake was getting up. "Luna. Alpha. I'll be taking my leave now."She said and left quickly. I looked at Blake. "Well, I don't think I've ever been called Luna before by some random stranger."I said and laughed. He flicked my nose. I stared at him in confusion and shock. "That's what you geet for pushing me off the bed."He said. "Oh wait! I forgot to ask her when I could leave!"I yelled. "Go ask her, Blake?"I said more than asked. "What makes you think I'm gonna ask her when I just sat down?"He said. "Because you love me?"I asked. "Two more reasons."He said. "You're obsessed with me?"I said. "The other one."He said. I stared at him a new light. "I'm kidding. That wasn't a valid enough reason."He said. "Because I'm in love with you and
