Who: Melinda and OPEN Where: The Beach When: Thursday evening What: She needed to get away and think.... Status/Rating: Incomplete/PG-13ish Warnings: None
Melinda was still reeling from the news of finding out that she was expecting. How the hell was she supposed to tell Dax this? Should she just avoid him at all costs? What was she going to do? She was only 19 years old, she was still practically a kid herself. She always imagined that she would someday get married and start a family and live happily. Was this good news or bad news to her? She didn't know, all she knew was that she had to get away for a while, get some fresh air.
Grabbing a light sweater, she put her hair up in a messy bun and exited her place and just went for a stroll down the beach. Wyatt so far was the only person that she actually told, she needed some time to tell the others. Finding a nice spot in the sand, she decided to sit and listen to the waves. It was what relaxed her and allowed her to do most of her thinking. Looking up at the moon and the stars, she began to think about her future. Touching her stomach, she had tears that fell down her face. Now, she was starting to feel some type of emotion instead of just being blank. Wiping her tears, she began to think of what she could do. She wasn't going to give up this baby, in fact, she did have a great support system. She just didn't want her worst fear happening which was that she would be left to raise the baby alone.
Lightly touching her stomach again, she began talking. "Everything is going to be okay. I promise." She said in a light whisper. Smiling as some more tears were running down her face.
