With A Little Help From My Friends(Konnie)

[Kyler Ethan Greyson]

Kyler was totally smitten with Lonnie, he was glad they had such a good thing going, and it kept his mind busy from going and thinking about his current situation with Riley, his ex. But he couldn't help but feel bad for not telling Lonnie what was going on, because there was no doubt that she would eventually find out. He wasn't sure if Riley knew about Lonnie or not, if she was mad that he moved on, maybe she would take revenge by going and telling his new girlfriend? Or anyone else could happen to tell her, and this worried him. He didn't want this to be ruined, not now. Things were finally looking up for him. He just had to tell her himself, and the sooner the better.

"Yeah, sure Baby. Go pick out a movie and I'll make us some grub." He said with a forced smile and kissed her cheek. He then went back over to his pantry and got out the food, pushing stuff off the counter to make room for his handful of stuff. He bit his lip as he started to prepare the spaghetti-O's, he knew he had to tell her today before things got even more serious then they already were. He put two cans of the O-shaped pasta in a huge microwavable bowl and put it in the microwave for five minuets, then started to make their hot chocolate. After the food was done, he took the bowl out and threw the two mugs in for a couple minuets, when they were done he dropped in two marshmallows each. He really enjoyed doing things for her, little things that told her he cared and he appreciated her. He brought the food to her, along with a bag of original lays, and set it on the coffee table in the living room quickly because he was burning his hands with all the hot things in his hands. "Ahhhh that was a bad idea but I didn't spill!" He said with a chuckle then sat on the couch. "Um, babe...before we start this movie, I kinda wanna talk first." He said as he bit his lip nervously, really afraid of how she would react to all this.

Lonnie knew that she had fallen for Kyler the moment they had met on the beach. There was just something about him that made her connect to him. Smiling, she couldn't help but feel wanted even more after their time in the bedroom. Her fingers raked through her hair as she watched him from the living room as he worked on making their food. Something was on his mind. She could tell by the way he kissed her cheek. Was it something that she had done? Biting on her lower lip, she moved to pick the movie deciding on something that she had never seen before. It would be nice to curl up against Ky and just forget about everything for a few moments. Yes, everything would be okay once Kyler came back with their food.

Sitting down on the couch, she watched as he brought the food over burning his hands. She took one in her's kissing his palm softly with a slight smile on her lips. The redhead then straightened up when he said they needed to talk. There was dread in her eyes as she wondered what they could possibly have to talk about. Her eyes met his before nodding her head. "Okay, right, let's talk then." Pulling her legs up underneath her, she turned towards him waiting for him to talk. It would be okay. Lonnie had never felt this nervous before as she tried to keep herself calm.

"What's up? You seem like something is bothering you...did I do something?" That was her first worry. If it wasn't her, she really couldn't think of what would be wrong.

The lanky brunette boy smiled a bit as she kissed the palm of his hand, when she was done he looked down at the faded apple symbol tattoo on his palm, rubbing it a little. He didn't know where to begin, how was he going to tell the girl he was now falling for that he might have an unborn child with his ex. But it just had to be done, he owed it to her. "No, no baby you're fine. Perfect even...it's just something I should really tell you before we get really serious and what not." He said as he bit his lip once more, looking down at his palms again.

He was terrified that he would scare her off and she would leave him. He didn't want this to end, not now and not anytime soon. He was smitten with Lonnie and could have cared less about Riley in this moment but even though things were over, she was still haunting him and his thoughts for the worst. "Well, uh remember that ex I kinda told you about?...Riley, well before you and I got together she told me...." He started as his hands started shaking, pausing for a moment because he could barely speak.

"Sh-she told me that she's pregnant, but she has no idea who the father is. It could be me or some other guy...or who knows who." He said, talking really fast. "I-I I'm telling you this because I don't want to keep anything from you. She doesn't mean anything to me anymore, I promise. " he told her as he looked into her eyes. "I have no idea what I'm gonna do about her, but I can promise you right now that I only want to be with you." He said as he reached for her hand, hoping to God. If there was one that Lonnie wouldn't freak out and run away from him.

Lonnie was getting more nervous the more he seemed to be reluctant to talk about what he wanted to. There were so many things running through her mind that he could possibly want to tell her. Her fingers ran through her hair wishing that she could just see what he was going to say before he was going to say it. Her eyes were slightly wide as her face paled the more he seemed to beat around the bush. It had been so nice being with Kyler that she hadn't even thought if he could possibly have any secrets that she didn't know about. It wasn't the secrets that made her scared it was the fact that he was telling them to her after she had already decided to be with him. Her heart was racing a bit more as she tried to think straight.

His hands were shaking as she stared down at her's feeling like her world was starting to fall apart. This time with Kyler had been amazing. Never in her life had she felt this great before. Taking a deep breath, she waited for the horrible thing he was going to tell her. She should have known that there was going to be something that would ruin this for her. Of course, she had been expecting him to tell her about another girl he was seeing. That was definitely not close to what she was hearing though.

Lonnie was pretty sure that she stopped breathing for a minute as her heart jumped into her throat as she tried to comprehend what was being said. Kyler might have a child with another girl. In her entire life, she had never thought that this was what it could be. She wanted to be understanding and tell him that it was okay and she didn't care. A part of her did care though because he might be a father. It scared her a little and when he reached for her, she had to pull back unsure of what to say. Her eyes weren't focusing and she was feeling lightheaded.

She wasn't sure if she could remember it being hard to breathe, but she was shaking as she stood up from the couch looking at him a bit shocked and pale. "A kid? You might have a kid?" She didn't know what else to say before she was running to the bathroom locking herself in sliding against the door until she was on the floor resting her head against the door trying to catch her breath. It was getting harder and harder to breathe. The redhead hadn't had a panic attack since the day she had found out Donnie was cheating on her. Now, she didn't know if she was going to be coming out of the bathroom. Everything had been so perfect...she wasn't sure what to do now. Lonnie definitely was falling for Kyler, but she was afraid he would want to be a part of the baby's life if it was his. She had never been good with kids besides her own siblings. What if he didn't want to be with her because of that?

All she could do was simply try to breathe as she got up running her fingers through her hair staring at herself in the mirror. When had she started crying? Her eyes were watering but she couldn't be sure as she was pretty sure if she didn't get her breathing under control that she was going to pass out.

[Kyler Ethan Greyson]

Kyler's face fell as Lonnie pulled away from him, but he really couldn't blame her. This was probably the last thing she wanted to hear. He then put his face in his hands, on the edge of panicking himself. "Yeah, I might..." He said as he chewed on his bottom lip pretty hard. His heart felt like it had shattered into a million pieces when he watched her face fall and then when she ran off to his bathroom. "Lonnie..." He said as he watched her walk away.

He got up and followed her, not really sure what he was supposed to do or say, he had been in some odd situations with women but nothing like this. He tried to open the door but it was obviously locked. "Lonnie...I'm sorry." He said as he pressed up against the door, his forehead touching it. "You know, no matter what happens...nothing is gonna change between us..." He told her as he slid down and sat down, his back up against the door. "I have no fucking idea what's gonna happen, and I'm scared. I really need you to be here with me. Because I dunno what I'd do without you..." He said loud enough for her to hear as he pulled his knees up to his chest.

"I promise, I'll always be here for you, Lon. You're perfect, I can't lose you now." He said sadly, as he tried his best not to start crying. He just couldn't lose her, not yet. She had been the best thing to have entered his life in a long time and he didn't want it to end, to go back to destroying himself slowly. "Baby girl, just please come out and talk to me...please." He begged her, looking towards the door again.

[Lonnie Astor]

Lonnie went to the door at the sound of Kyler's voice. She closed her eyes leaning her forehead against it wishing that she could just put all of her fears away. Until then, she didn't know if she would ever come out of the bathroom. Would he be worried if she didn't surface soon? Raking her fingers through her hair, she let him speak not saying one word that would even hint to what she was thinking about at that moment. How could she even think when he had just told her that he might be a father, but he wasn't a hundred percent sure...that was a plus, right? She bit her lower lip sliding down to her knees knowing Kyler was on the other side. Her hand reached up as she wiped her tears away. This boy had risked everything telling her that he was going to be a father. The least she could do was be a grown up about the entire thing and give him a chance even if she once again ended up heart broken.

Getting up from the floor, she unlocked the door slowly opening it. Lonnie rubbed at her arm clearing her throat a little bit. "I guess I may have been overreacting...I mean we haven't been together that long. I just I'm falling hard, Ky...and I don't know if I'm going to hit pavement or fly yet." She blushed waiting for him to say something. If she ever lost him, well, it could possibly have been the end of her. Not that she would ever say anything so dramatic, but this was the most romance she had in a long time.

This was the most honest she had been with anyone in her life. Even her grandmother hadn't seen this side of her. Lonnie just hoped that she didn't scare off Kyler talking like she was. Wow, she really needed a hit of something because that conversation had brought her to a dangerous low. Maybe she should just not even care if he had a kid. If he did, then she would be there to be the super awesome girlfriend...and if he didn't. well, she would still be the super awesome girlfriend. Either way, he was going to be stuck with her until the bitter end. Lonnie tilted her head to the side with a smile. "Now stand up and give me a kiss, dammit."
