    Toni had broken up with Nydia just two weeks ago, and he had miserable everyday since. He beat himself up over it constantly, he hated himself for leaving the best woman he ever had, but he had done it to protect her. Her family had been threatening to take away everything she had and would receive in wills and trust funds. He was also actively involved in gang activity which could endanger her. Toni told himself he wasn't going to go by her house again, he knew that was a lie. As he headed out to the car he tried to convince himself otherwise, but the moment the car was started there was no way to stop himself. He drove from his small apartment, to her decent-sized, nice, house in the rich part of town. Her parents had bought it for her and hated whenever he had stayed over there, but he preferred her house to his apartment. Toni knew he wasn't welcome in this part of town. His car was well known, it had a Vipers symbol painted into it and was the stereotypical mustang of a gang boy. He pulled up across the set from Nydia's house, taking a few deep breaths. Toni didn't want to go and ask how she was, he was just getting himself mentally prepared to leave. He didn't want her hurt or to ruin her life. Toni let out a heavy sigh as he slipped from the car and headed to her door. I shouldn't be doing this. He thought to himself. Standing in front of Nydia's door he wasn't sure what his next move would, or should, be

    Nydia | The "Juliet"

    Image

    Things hadn't meant to turn out this way. Broken, and alone now that Toni had left her; which had been the worst of all this. The man who swore he'd be there for her, not matter what, was gone like dust in the wind. Her parents and his choices of affiliation had driven their union to a bitter end. She had been miserable since he left. The kind of miserable where she didn't get out of bed for a week. The kind of miserable where just seeing some forlorn reminder of him, like the shirts he'd left at her place or the stupid movies he'd always brought over filled with action and women still in her movie shelf, those little reminders would send her into bouts of tears and a need for some Ben & Jerry's. And she was alone in her grief. Nydia's parents were just ecstatic that he'd left her. Had been quick to slip over to her place and prattle on about how she was too good for that low life crook, hell the last time they'd been over her mother had tried to hook her up with a friend's son. And she thought that would be the worse of it all. Dealing with Toni leaving her.

    But for the past month she'd been feeling... Off. The svelte blonde had recently been throwing up a couple times a day; and she had just chalked it up to the stress of breaking up with Toni. That day however, as she was bent over the toilet for the fourth day in a row around the same time; she began to panic. It wasn't like she and Toni had been celibate by any means... But she was on the pill. They usually wore protection. And that's how her day had been spent, a trip down to her doctors revealed her worst fear. She was indeed pregnant. And that's how she felt currently; sitting in her car in the parking lot with her head in her hands. God she was so fucked. Her parents would either want her to abort the baby, or disown her. Perhaps if she was so willing they'd push her to put the baby up for adoption... But she very much doubted they'd be thrilled to become grandparents. Especially since she was so young. Outside the world flew by, and on her seat next to her Nydia had far too many pamphlets about what to expect.

    For a long while she just sat in her car, fighting back tears. Even if Toni hadn't left her, they couldn't really raise a kid. Not with what he did. No, Nydia wasn't blind to her ex's faults namely the gang he ran with. The thought of having to tell Toni snaked through her mind, and Nydia groaned into the suffocating silence of her car. Finally when she felt a little calmer, at least enough to go home and dump all her anxiety medication as she couldn't take them while pregnant, the one thing her doctor had told her to do, she turned her car on and headed home. The way home she felt numb, in disbelief. It almost hurt to pull into her driveway, just before noon to find it completely empty. "Toni's not coming back." Her mind whispered making Nydia's heart sink. Instead of lingering in her car the blonde killed engine, grabbing her pamphlets and heading indoors. How was she going to tell her parents? Hey mom and dad, remember that guy you threatened to send a hit-man after? Well I am pregnant with his bastard kid. Surprise! That wouldn't go over very well.

    Nydia decided to just keep herself busy. First and foremost was dumping out her medication, down the disposal. She'd hardly finished when she heard a car outside her home, and curiously she jogged towards the window to find a rather familiar muscle car; one who belonged to a face she didn't think would come 'round again. For a few minutes she watched from her window as he slowly made his way up to the door, pausing as if not sure if to knock or just leave. She didn't want to give him the chance to leave so Nydia all but bolted to the door throwing it open to reveal Toni. He didn't look so good for wear. Tired and hesitant. Not at all the cocky and confident man she'd met all those months ago. For a moment neither said anything, Nydia was too frozen with shock and anxiety at the thought of telling him where she'd been earlier. "Do... Do you want to come in? Please?" She murmured, large Aegean depths flickering with a sort of silent plea as she stepped aside to let him in. They had a lot to talk about after all.

    As Toni stood outside of Nydia's house a million thoughts ran through his mind. Many of he thoughts about Nydia. But a great deal were also about her parents. They always seemed to know when he was over, as if they had a constant surveillance of her house. Many times he would come over just to hang out with her, and they would show up within twenty minutes, her mother berating Nydia, her father threatening Toni. Toni had realized the pattern of their actions and knew when they could and couldn't get caught in the midst of things her parents would disapprove of. The quick thought of their sex life made Toni grin like a teenager. Their sex life was anything but boring. He imagined each and every room of the house where they had had sex, a few times narrowly avadinng her parents catching them, but Toni loved the thrill.

    When Nydia opened the door it surprised Toni, he wasn't expect that, his hand had been raised to knock but he didn't believe she was going to answer. His mind stumbled over what words to say, but luckily she was the one who had done the talking. That was how it always had been for them. Toni didn't talk he was just the physical intimidation. It didn't take him long to agree and follow her inside, shutting and locking the door behind him in habit. Toni followed Nydia to her living room, sitting in the large recliner he always did, unless of course they were on the couch having a bit of fun. When he sat down Toni looked across at Nydia and gave a small smile.

    Toni tried to think of what to say. He was never good at words. And in the sense Toni was not intelligent, ask any of his teachers and they would tell you he's an idiot. But that was untrue, academically he was not prevalent, but with what he did he was a genius. Academically he had dyslexia, which many teachers believed, he just was never formally diagnosed. Whenever Nydia's parents tried to use that against him it would frustrate him and he would storm out as he had throughout years of schooling. In his gang though he was smart. He knew how to handle fights, drugs, hide evidence. He was the go to man. It made him proud. Sure his intelligence and talents weren't what one would respect. But he was good at what he did, and it made him money.

    Toni finally strung together a few words to begin the conversation. "Nydia, I love you." He mumbled and rubbed the back of his neck, his nervous tick. "I can't stand life without you. I know I'm not a rich man. But I truly love you. And I want you back." He said and leaned back into the reclined rubbing his neck again. "Please take me back. I know your parents hate me. But I would do anything for you." He said and trailed off his sentence. Toni didn't know just how much her parents were about to hate him.

    Nydia | The "Juliet"

    Image

    Nydia nearly sagged with relief when Toni followed her indoors, shutting and locking the door behind them like he always did. For a moment she could even delude herself that nothing had changed between them. That he was still her Toni and no matter what it'd always be them at the end of the day. But then her gaze drifted towards her kitchen, where her pamphlets from the doctor lay on her counter. "This is too much." She thought, biting her lip as led the way to her living room. Did she tell Toni about the pregnancy? Or just... Just visit a clinic? Hell every instinct she had told Nydia to just go curl up against him; draw any comfort from him she could. That in his arms everything would be okay. But it was a juvenile thought. As he took his spot in her recliner, Nydia sat on the loveseat next to it, tucking her legs beneath her as she watched him behind weary eyes. What was the right thing to do in this situation? She hardly had to worry about why he was there, as Toni began his speech- if one could call it that.

    That he loved her, that even though he wasn't rich he loved her. Normally she would of melted. Nydia would of flung herself into his arms and kissed him so soundly that he'd not have to question her love for him. But unbeknownst to him this situation had just gotten very sticky with the little life that was growing in her. It almost broke her heart to hear Toni asking her to take him back. That he'd do anything for her. Around her the faint floral scent of her home felt hot and stiff. And her mouth was frozen shut. The blonde knew he was looking for an answer. That she needed to say something; but she just couldn't. If Nydia decided to keep and raise this baby, she didn't want it to be involved in Toni's gang affiliations. She didn't want any harm to come to this child because of what it's father did. But she couldn't go without Toni either. As much as he loved her, Nydia loved him just as fierce. She often joked about being Romeo and Juliet, though hopefully without either dying.

    So instead of speaking Nydia got up. Almost in a trance she shuffled to her kitchen, grabbing the pamphlets off the counter and shuffling back. It was at least the right thing to let him know that she was pregnant. With ragged breathing, feeling like she may fall into a panic attack Nydia brought the pamphlets to the living room and pretty much just dropped them in his lap. Every helpless feeling that she had experienced at the doctor's office flooded back to her; thickening her throat with panic. "I- went to the doctors today." She started, looking away from the brunette male in her chair. Her voice was a soft whispering quaver of hurt and fear of what was going on. "Toni, I'm pregnant." She finally blurted out, feeling as though she may vomit on her wooden floors. "I love you, Toni I do." She added quietly, hoping to mitigate some of the shock of the tactless bomb she'd dropped on him.

    Her lips pressed downwards into a thin line as Nydia tried to retain her composure. "I love you but I don't know what to do. God when my parents find out they... I can only imagine what they're going to do. And you. You know it hasn't bothered me that... That you're affiliated with the gang. But now I have someone else to think about. What would happen if they went after you by going after our kid? Toni... I don't know what to do." Nydia's concerns burst from her like a balloon holding too much air. "I... I don't even know if I'm going to keep it. I- I just thought you should know." Even as she spoke Nydia could feel something stirring in her heart that clenched at the thought of not keeping the life which was growing within her. But all options had to be considered; especially given how this pregnancy would be received by most people. Hell she wasn't even sure how Toni would react to it.

    Toni was surprised about the news to say the least. He knew she was on birth control, as well as he almost always had a condom on himself. Sure there were a few times when they had unprotected sex, but he never thought that it would lead to this. Her parents are going to kill me. He thought to himself, a million more new though at ran through his mind rampantly. Toni wasn't sure of what to say or how to react, but he knew he has to. Nydia was waiting there in front of him, rambling on as she usually did when she was nervous.

    "Your parents will surely want to kill me." He mumbled and put the pamphlets for, his lap onto the chair, standing up himself. Toni pulled Nydia into a tight embrace. "Not only their reputation is on the line so is yours. But as I always tell you, fuck your parents." He said and let a deep breath out, holding her close to him, as if she would run away. "We can figure this out together." He said trying to console her in the least bit.

    Toni was a bit upset when she brought up his gang affiliation, sure he didn't do anything to hide it. But the fact she wouldn't take him back over it? Or allow him to see his kid, it did anger him. "Nydia, I am in a gang, I also am very good at what I do. You have never been threatened or harmed, and that child wouldn't be either." He said over protectively.

    (Sorry it isn't longer I have to leave)
