Danielle "Danny" McKnight
'How is that even possible? We used protection. We were careful' His words rang through her ears and she knew his questions were valid. She didn't know how they had become so unlucky but she knew at this point it didn't matter. His next words stung her "Your parents already hate me, and now I knocked up their youngest daughter?' his words made her feel inhuman. She could feel him pulling away from her and she was bracing herself for the words that came next. 'I love you, you know how much I love you' she winced as he spoke. Before he even spoke another word she felt broken. 'But I can't do it. I.. I'm not ready.' Danny sniffled and wiped her eyes. She had to stop herself from crying. People were staring and she hated crying in front of others. She finally nodded weakly. 'I mean, I couldn't afford it anyways. You know that.' She wanted to tell him that she couldn't either, and that her parents would definitely kick her out when they found out, but she wasn't going to add to his guilt.
'I'm so sorry Danny'
She barely heard his last words as he walked out the door. She felt completely broken. It was as though everyone in her life walked out on her at the same time. She watched him walk away and after a few minutes she got up and left as well. Instead of jumping back into her car she chose to walk. The car was only a painful reminder of the love she shared with Jonathan. She had no idea where she was going or where she was going to end up but she knew she had to get away from there. It became hard for her to breathe so she began to run, feeling the need to flee. When she was entirely out of breath she stopped and gasped for air. 'This isn't something you can run away from.' she thought. 'You're stuck with it...even if you have to do it alone' When she looked around, she had no idea where she was but she knew it was a part of town she had never been in before. Her pace slowed to a walk and she was very hesitant. She heard many wolf whistles in her direction but she paid no attention. She had an eerie feeling that someone was following her so she quickened her pace, only to find that there actually WAS someone following her...Out of instinct she pulled out her cell phone and began to text Jonathan, but she stopped and put it back into her pocket. 'Keep walking...' she thought.
