You're Kidding? (Greywolf)

Erik Night

Erik stumbled forwards to try and catch Anna as she fell, supporting her back and then liftin gher up off her feet, and cradling her in his arms. She was exausted, and that was not good. Erik smiled down at her lightly, liiking awefully handsome as he carried her into her house, walking upstairs easily, and placing her on the bed. Erik dissapeared momentarily, only to come back with an extra blanket, and some food. He then went ight to her dresser, opening up the second drawr on the right amd pullig out the first pair of pajama's. He placed it on her bed, and smiled a little, before stepping out and closing the door, waiting for her to change so he could finish tending to her. Yes, he was going to be there for her, whether she wanted it or not.

After Anna had changed, he helped her into bed, and gave her all the litttle snacks that she could possibly crave, and a bottle of water. Then, he grabbed the remote to her T.V, and gave it to her, sitting down in a chair near her bed. Yeah Erik was tired, and slightly cold. Hurt, angry, upset, depressed. Yeah, he was more complicated then he looked. After just a few moments, his head tiled to the side, and his breathe went slow. He fell alseep fast.

[Jisa]

Anna didn't like to have to rely on Erik, but she was so exhausted that she couldn't protest or care basically. Once Erik had done his job, way too well, and had fallen asleep quickly, she wondered why he was still here and wanting to care for her. She was still confused on the subject of why he had broken up with her and then pretended that it had never happened. Anna picked up one of his hands and put it on her stomach where she knew he could feel the heart beat of his kids and hers fainter since it was further up in her chest. Anna didn't know why she did it but she did, and left her hand on his, she did want to get back together with him but she didn't know why she was so hesitant about it. Finally she fell asleep with her hand on his.

Erik Night

Erik's eyes opened slowly, only seeing in the room in the light provided by the T.V. He looked over to see Anna holding her hand over his on her stomache, where he coudl feel theri kids heartbeat, slow and steady. He smilled to himself, enjoying the moment and listening to Annas every breathe. Then, as he realised he very possibly had to go to the washroom, he got up, carefully slipping his hand from hers so she wouldn't wake up. Then, tiredly, Erik stumbled into the hallway, running his hand along the wall to lead the way through the complete darkness. He tripped once, muttering a little, then, he walked straight into a wall. Wonderful. This is what he gets for looking after his love. Nice. Erik then stmbled one, yawning, and walking around aimlessly for the bathroom. Then, all within a few seconds, Erik took a step, and his foot fell down to nothing, causing him to stumble and be sent flailling down the stairs. He landed with a large thump at the bottom, leaning against the wall, holding his forehead with one hand. He growned a little, and sighed.

"This is comnpletely amazing. Couldn't get any better."

He said talking to himself, toatally forgetting Anna, and how completely loud he had just been. Erik tried to get up, but felt a little dizzy, so he sat back down.

"I should have just stayed asleep."

He muttered under his breathe, sitting on the floor, one hand on his forehead. It was funny, how he was always getting hurt, usually by other people. But, like he gets beat up enough, why does he have to contribute to that with his own clumyness?

[Jisa]

Anna woke with a start as slight bumping noises ran through her house, she almost had a heart attack with the sudden loud noises, which wasn't good for her ever, whether she was pregnant or not. She finally calmed herself enough to notice that Erik was no longer sitting beside her, and it must've been him who made all the noise. He was probably wandering around without the lights on, trying to find something, turns out that she was right. Anna walked out of her room and flicked on the landing lights, seeing Erik sprawled at the bottom of the stairs with his hand on his head and a dazed expression on his face. She fluttered to his side and kneeled down very close to him and reached over to look at his head, which looked like it would hurt in the morning, it was red and a little barely noticeable bump was forming on his forehead.

"I'm going to have to Erik proof this house, never mind the baby proofing."

Anna muttered with a slight laugh in her voice, the she realized that she was still leaning over him, she blushed and scooted away to sit next to him. She had her hands on her bulging stomach and had her head tilted back against the wall, it was completely silent in the house. Anna remembered her parents leaving her, Erik leaving her- even if he was sort of back now, Jasper leaving her so long ago when it all had started. She hadn't realized how many times she'd been left.

Erik Night

Erik head her comign down the stairs, his paln to not wake her up shad failed. Epicly. As Anna leaned over him to look at his head, then blushed lightly and sat back, he smiled a littl eat her, rubbing his head a little. His smile grew with her little muttered comment. Maybe he wasn't suppossed to hear it, but he did. But wait.. She said she was going to Erik proof the house... Does that mean that she wanted to get back together? Possibly? Quite frankly, he hadn't even broken up with ehr, but he betted that Tiffany had done somethign to say that he had. Sitting up in the silence, Erik looked over at Anna, his smile back into that little boy smile that he had whenever he was close to burst out laughing. He then went a little quiet, and reajusted, a sad look settling over his face as he dug into his pocet. He pulled out a little box, crushed a flat, and gave it to Anna. He looked down a little, and let out a laugh.

"I was going to leave it for you, once you fell asleep, but I guess I was kinda tired. And now. it might not exactly be in tact, but you can throw it away if you want to..."

He said, smilling a little. He had gotten her a little case with three charms, for the bracelet he had gotten her so long ago. All of them where little representations of love and caring, little hearts of differnt sizes, each with a little insription.

[Jisa]

Anna closed her eyes and listened to the silence around the house, she was still thinking about what had happened between them to make it so awkward to be around each other. It was sad, but Anna didn't know what to do about it, she wondered what he was taking out of his pocket but she'd find out soon enough anyways. Anna took the little box gently and opened it softly and saw the three charms inside of it, they weren't ruined... silver was strong. Anna had failed to take the lovely little bracelet off it broke her heart too much, but it was hidden under her sleeve and not noticeable. She blushed deeply before slipping it down to her wrist where it was seen and attached the three charms to it and stared at it for a second.

"I'm sorry Erik."

Anna apologized, her voice caught with sadness, she almost cried but she just breathed deeply again and calmed herself down. She'd learnt how to control her wild mood swings and raging emotions, a little bit at least.

[GREYtheFLAILER]

Erik Night

Erik smiled a little as she pulled the little brcelt into view, she had been wearing it? Then, as she put the little chamrs on, Anna spoke, her voice catching with sadness. He just smiled lightly at her, and then looked down a little.

"Anna, you have nothing to apologise for. Please, just tell me what I did wrong.."

He said looking up at he timidly once more. Yes, it took everything he had not to hug her nd tell ehr everythign woudl be okay. To hold her close and escape in the world where it was just them, alone. No problems. No Tiffany. No nothing. Erik touched his head a little, and winced, but was glad to find out he wasn't bleeding. Well, at least that was good. But, Erik knew, that there was lots of stress... For Anna, for the kids... Fort him.. It was just a very hard time for the two.

[Jisa]

Anna looked up at him, her mouth confused as whether to smile or to frown so it stayed neutral where it looked natural. She honestly didn't know what she was going to answer him with, because he hadn't done anything wrong particularly but Anna just felt hesitant.

"Not anyting that you did wrong, particularly if you thought it was right..."

Anna slipped a note out of her pocket, it was the one Tiffany had read to her claiming that Erik had been leaving her, and then everything had gone sour, it was hard remembering that moment. She held onto the note for a second longer than she needed to before handing it to Erik.

[GREYtheFLAILER]

Erik Night

Erikknew emmediately what the note said once she pulled it out. He shook his head, holding it up and reading it, a slightly angry, yet upset and confused look on his face. Erik simply folded it back up, ripped it in half, and put it into his pocket. He faced Anna, sitting so he wasn't leaning against the wall, his blu eyes looking towards her eagerly.

"Anna I wrote that, but I wrote it two years ago to Tiffany."

He said, his face clamer than it was most of the time, waiting for a responce. Either she would be happy for it, or turn him away anyways. Erik didn't know if he could deal with that. But he would. For him, for her, for their kids. It was still so weird, thinking about being a father, but Erik had his mind set on being a good one. Finally, Erik coudln't hold it in anymore, and he leaned forwards and hugged her. He hadn't done that in almost three weeks, and it felt completely natural. Not only did he want Anna, but he needed her.

[Jisa]

Anna felt great relief when Erik told her that the note had been to Tiffany two years ago, inside she'd known it wasn't for her but it had been so real right there and then. She still felt hesitant toward her relationship with Erik though, it'd be a while until she felt completely comfortable with him.

"Oh,"

That was Anna's only answer, for there was nothing else she could say about it, then he hugged her. It caught her off guard, she relaxed into his arms as a reflex and waited the hug out she couldn't push Erik away, never. But she didn't realize that two people had just opened the door, her parents still had the key and they had come back to apologize.

[GREYtheFLAILER]

Erik Night

Erik's face went inot a sad smile, as he pulled away from her. He understood, so many mistakes piling up onto her shoulders, she should be hesistant. He pulled back, once again leaning against the wall, but turned to notice the front door opening, Anna's parents. He sat against the wall, his head pains where not as bad, but it still hurt. He gave Anna a worried glance, before waching as the adults walked in. Their suprsied looks. It made him angry, how adults always looked down at him. Well, that had come from his father really. Erik reajusted, waiting for the parents to gawk at why the heck he was still here, or why it could very well have looked like he had either been punched, or if they looked at the area, fell down the stairs. His sigh was defeated, as he looked up at Anna's parents, he tried to stand, his had pounded slightly, but he managed to get a grip and sand with slight trouble.

"I kinda fell down the stairs."

He siad a little quietly, but he realised how completely hilarious the situation was. Maybe he had hit his head to hard, but he couldn't help sending a timid smile to the parents, before he stumbled again, muttering something about not havinng any sense to simply turn on the lights. It might have bee awkward though, as Erik thought about it, seeing as it was the middle of the night, and clearly he had come down from her room. He swallowed, and steadied himself once again, before speaking.

"Anna was just upset, I was just looking after her."

He said slowly, looking donw a little. He felt like a child being scolded, and it felt horrible, but he needed to give the parents their time. And, Anna woudl get no blame what so ever. Erik was responsable for everything, and he was prepared to speak with Anna's parents about it. He would tell them how in love he was with her, how many things have happened. Tiffany, the accident, everything. They would either send him away, or feel slightly compasonate for him. Erik was slightly scared of parent figurs in general, fathers. This was really only because of his home life, his abusive father, but he needed to get over that. He needed to face Anna's father like a man, or he would be treated like a child.

[Jisa]

Anna's eyes were cast down as she lifted herself to her feet and stood slightly behind Erik but still in plain view to her parents. She wasn't sure how this would play out but she hoped it would be okay for Erik and her, but she had a bad feeling about this particular moment. Anna stifled a groan, her 'feelings' were always true so far and that was a tad bit worrying. Looking on at Erik who stumbled and swayed she felt the urge to laugh, she didn't act upon it of course but Erik who had gotten both of them through everything was defeated by the stairs and a wall. A small smile flickered across her face at the same time that Erik timidly smiled toward her parents. Erik stated the obvious to her parents whom had already guessed what had happened and their faces had not changed, keeping neautral was safest I suppose. But they did have something to say while Anna did not. You might've guessed what they were thinking before they asked this question though, why was he still at Anna's house at this time of night? It was sort of... perculiar.

"Um... Anna... don't tell us that this boy lives with you?"

Have a question, half a pleading statement. Well what would you think in this situation, if you were a parent that had to deal with this? I'd be pretty darn shocked too, and probably a bit... hysterical I guess if I found out that a young man that was barely legal was living under the care of your daughter who seemed just as irresponsible as she had been almost six years ago. That would be if I didn't understand the circumstances and the actual situation like Anna's parents here, but of course I do so I'm completely cool with it... sort of. Anna shook her head quickly, her mouth was too dry to form the words that she wanted to put across to her parents, in scary situations like this, Anna would rather stick herself to Erik's side and shrink like a little kid while he dealt with it, but that would not and could not happen. She had to help him on this one, seeing as they weren't 'together' and the fact that these were her parents, and not his. Which made Anna wonder if he had told his parents about him going to be a... father.

"Well shouldn't you be at home with your parents then?"

Anna's mom and dad completely dismissed Erik's other statements which were just... just let's not go there basically. That was what Anna's parents were thinking, roughly, it's hard to know what such complex people are thinking, even if their thoughts are my own, I still wouldn't be able to decipher them. Anna couldn't answer this question, she knew from experience that Erik could handle himself and she certainly didn't want to get in trouble with her parents for speaking for a perfectly well person. She knew her parents and what they were most likely to do so she kept her mouth shut and watched, now Anna had changed quite a bit since before all the problems started arriving, usually she would have just done whatever she thought was right and made her parents made, not intentionally but it would've happened. But I guess you learn to avoid things when you've been involved in so many mistakes, accidents and purposeful murderous schemes by a certain blonde. So Anna played good little girl and stood there silently waiting for Erik's reply to her parents' question. Hopefully they wouldn't overreact on what he tells them.

[GREYtheFLAILER]

Erik Night

Erik's teeth ground together in irritation at the parents clear annoyance. Why coudl no one give him a break? He coudl feel the anger building, but he kept still, standing there, head clearing. He was no longer dizzy, and he inhaled depply, his blue eyes searching Anna's parents for some sort of emotion. Anything. He came up empty handed, but then they spoke. Emmediately, every single muscle in his body tenced, and his jaw clentched. They would ba able to tell they had hit a nerve, but he would pull himself together. He couldn't be weak. No, that would be a bad thinkg to do. So, Erik exhaled a ragged breathed, and spoke.

"I don't live with them anymore. They chased me out. I'm alone."

Was all he said in short, clipped words. He was straining right now, and it was hard, to hold himself back. He snuck a little glance at Anna, and calmed down slightly. She would have known how hard this was for him. His parent had ruined his life. They had ruined him. And now he was here, beside the girl that meant everything to him, facing her parents who where clearly annoyed. He would loose it all again. He felt it building once more, the anger. He had been an agry boy, all his life. It was hard for him, but Anna was helping him, he was gaining control. And now, her parents where tryign to take that all away from him. She was all he had left. They couldn't d that to him. They didn't understand! Erik's eyes shut momentarily, as he inhaled another ragged breath. Breath in, breath out, repeat. He did this a few times, before facing her parents once again.

"To be honest, right now I wish I still had them. How they where when I was little. Before my father started beating me, and my mother lost herself and said nothing about it. But, that can't happen, ao I am here. I don't mean to be rude, but I don't like being discrimanated."

He said, a little firmly, through clentched teeth and a completely risgid body. He swallowed quickly, and looked up at the two adults, curiousity breaking through his slight trance. Why did this always have to happen? He coudln't loose her, he wouldn't.

[Jisa]

Okay, ouch. Anna flinched as she knew that the question that her parents had just pushed at him was completely uncalled for and over his limit but he seemed to keep the anger that she knew was boiling inside of him. She was overwhelmed with relief that he didn't go balistic on her parents, she knew he full well could have, just because they didn't approve of her choices didn't mean that she could love them any less. Right now she was sort of just... afraid of them and afraid for Erik, she didn't want her parents to ask questions that would push him over the edge, that wouldn't be fair on him. The guy couldn't seem to catch a break lately, that was definitely an understatement. Anna couldn't help but instantly feel bad for not letting him catch a break with her being so difficult toward him, why couldn't she just trust him completely? It would make everything so much easier, right?. But she couldn't change how she felt, until someone did something to change it for her. Anna reached out unnoticeably for his hand, to reassure him, nothing more.

"Oh."

Surprise flashed in Anna's mother's eyes, that certainly caught them both off guard, so they had yet another question to ask him that might be a little too much. Anna had a certain feeling that she knew this, no she didn't know what the statement was but she had a feeling that it might be a bit too much for poor Erik. She squeezed his hand gently, keeping her hand in his firmly, she might not be ready to pick their relationship back up but he hadn't left her side, she couldn't abandon him like this. It just wasn't right. Anna held her breath when she felt Erik tensing up again, anger bubbling back to the surface of his skin, he started to breath- raggedly, but her breathed to calm himself down. Anna wasn't sure of what was going to happen next but she kept her worried eyes on his face as he went on. She felt like crying when he talked about how his dad had physically abused him, but of course she didn't, she was proud that he had explained it and stated the fact that he did not like being discriminated against.

"Well that explains why they didn't know that you are going to be a father."

Anna's mom pondered out loud, nodding her head as if the world had been righted again. Ugh, she was so narrow minded, there were better things to be wondering about than the fact that Erik's parents didn't know that he had gotten some woman pregnant... unintentionally. Anna's father didn't look fazed at all by Erik's speech which angered Anna, the poor boy had just told them the secrets of his world and they didn't even care? There should be some law against it really, that was how Anna felt but she kept herself silent, for fear of what would happen if she did speak out. Nothing really, but Anna didn't want to sound stupid, and right now she was speechless and breathless anyway, so she held on to Erik's hand as if it were her life line and decided to wait it out. She felt a faint kick in her stomch and smiled slightly, as if she had forgotten the two tiny lives inside her before that small gesture they had made, as if to remind their mommy that they were there and not to forget to feed them.

Erik Night

Erik looked back to Anna a little briefly as she held onto his hand the entire time. He could tell that it wasn’t meant to be an intimate action in any way, but it still made him happier, that she cared. At Anna’s parent’s comment, Erik tensed once more, and looked down. Why was this happening to him? Erik went over their statement a few times in their head, and as soon as he got it, his head snapped up, face going pale. "Well that explains why they didn't know that you are going to be a father.” They had talked to them, his parents. Oh god. How did they even know his old number? How could they have contacted his parents? Oh god. No, no, no. NO! Erik’s faced drained of all remaining color as it set in, and his blue eyes hardened. Why would they do that? How could they? They didn’t know him, they didn’t understand! They didn’t get how he felt about Anna, and now, he was going to have to face his father and mother about it. Erik backed up against the wall, his breathing quickening once more. Oh. My. God. He sent a glance to Anna, a slight warning, and worry, but it was clear he was overwhelmed with emotions, feelings, and thoughts. Just then, the door opened again, this time slamming against the back f the wall with unnecessary force. This was followed with hasty loud footsteps towards the room they were in. Oh god. No. Heels followed the louder footsteps slowly, timidly, and Erik lets go of Anna’s hand as soon as he saw that large figure of his father standing in the hall, staring at him. His fists tightened and he stayed pale, his breathing almost stopped, in fact, it did momentarily. Then, soon the frame of his mother was seen, shadowing his overpowering father. Anna would now see where Erik got his older looks and bulk from. Spitting image of his father, and he hated himself for it.

“Thanks for calling us.”

Erik’s dad said hoarsely, stepping forwards, his eyes trained on Erik and Erik only. In his eyes, Erik was an underachiever, nothing but a splat of dirt on his windshield of life. His smile was forced, even as he glared down at Erik, though his eyes where clouded. His mother didn’t dare to look at him. Erik’s father held out a hand to Anna’s father, and Erik’s mother did the same. Great, at least he was being polite before he made the freaking place blow up. Then, they stood before Erik and Anna, who’s fists where still balled up, as his ridged from leaned against the wall heavily. He was so tired.

“Erik, seems as if your just creating a wake of disappointment.”

His father said sternly, looking down at his son. Now, Erik was a tall guy, built well, you know in good shape. He was puny compared to his father, who was now standing over him like a predator stalking its prey. That’s how Erik’s father thought of him, as prey. Someone that would simply carry on his family name. Proudly or not. Erik scowled at his father, but his fists unclenched. He couldn’t hurt him here. He wouldn’t. Not in front of other people. That could ruin status. Ugh, his father disgusted him.

“Since when did you care? You sent me away last time I checked.”

Erik said back, though with not as much attitude. It was clear that even then, Erik’s father got annoyed. He was practically fuming already. And Erik thought he had issues.
