Secrets in the Summer.

"Sleep? dad you heard Tessa! she's pregnant!" he covered his face with his hands, scared out of his mind. "I don't want no kid and I definitely don't want her in my life forever." he muttered, remembering when she'd moaned out Olivers name instead.

"Kaiden!" I called out, seeing Tessa's parents pull up in the drive way. "Can you come down here please."

"mm you men breed like rabbits." she winked at Kaiden "anyway, let's get down to business.. We're going to be family soon, what do you two have in mind to help our daughter cope with a child?"

I exchanged a look with Kaiden and tried keeping civil "I don't see what you mean, if in fact Cole is the father then he'll be responsible, but this isn't up to us to fix, we're here for support, and that'll be all we give." support my ass, I wanted to ring both their damn necks for being so stupid.

"what are you implying!!" the mother screeched, shocked "Iour daughter has done no such thing and you think you can say this to us.. I'm appalled!"

"Im appalled that your go happy for them to have a child. They're too young." as much as I hated it, I was only thinking of one option to end all of this. "kaiden is right, so you'll need to gather those boys to do a test too"

I smiled at Ollie as Kaiden walked them out "thankyou, now can you go check on your sisters, their meant to be cleaning up the toy room" and I doubted they were doing that. I picked up Finn and cuddled him, afraid and sick to my stomach with worry and guilt. "why do I get the feeling this mother is pleased her daughter is pregnant?" I asked looking at him when he entered the room again. "how did your talk with Cole go?"

"Wait, you actually called them?" I whispered, horrified. "I.. I dont know, he's really fucked up this time, and lying to us and hiding things.. He almost tore this family apart." I guess maybe military school was an option "or we pull him out of that school and.. Oh I don't know, this is too much to wrap my head around. I just cannot take this."

"Let's just see what happens.." I think sleeping on it would be best. I walked up behind him, and into Coles room. The door closed shut. "Cole.." I began, and went to open it. It was jammed. "Cole.. what's.." I caught glance of the mirror, reflecting on the wall with Cole hanging there and screamed "COLE!! Kaiden he's hanging there!!! get the door open!" I rushed to call 911

Ollie and the girls heard us and the door being broken down, "Ollie take the girls to the playroom please!" I said through tears, not wanting them to see this. I heard the ambulance nearing and looked back at Coles lifeless body "wake him up! Why isn't he moving!" I cried, shaking as I dropped down beside him "Cole! Please open your eyes!"

"hes not breathing.. Why are his lips purple.." I reached out touching him and sobbed harder "hes cold, he needs a blanket" I heard the paramedics rush it, taking over and my feet moved on their own accord to call Kirk and Lee. I couldn't get the words out. I just cried. They were on their way over as one of the paramedics gave us a sad look. The phone dropped "no.." she stepped closer "I'm sorry... We'll let you say your goodbyes."

I cried, holding his head in my hands and trying to lift him close to my chest and I didn't want to let go "hes not gone.." I refused to believe it. "he will wake up.. He has to wake up.." I sobbed, hearing Kirk and Lee trying to barge past.. "I've got the kids.." Lee said leaving quickly, while Kirk went to Kaiden. I refused to let Cole go when the offiers walked in. "No. I'm not leaving him.." I said kissing his cold cheek. "He'll wake up."

The officers arrived, and examined the room finding a note underneath his pillow addressed to Lucy and Kaiden. He tapped kaiden on the shoulder and handed it over after reading. "We found this. We need to transport his body, your wife.." he sadly said "she needs to let him go."

I'm sorry I'm such a screw up.. Dad. Thanks for saving me. Sorry I disappointed you in the end. Mum.. You were the mum I always wanted growing up. I love you. Tell Ollie I'm sorry and that he'll always be my brother. It's better I leave now. Ill only hurt you all even more. Don't feel bad. I'm finally happy. Cole

I felt a set of arms around my body, pulling me to him "no.." I needed my husband to hold me. Not his brother. Kirk let go, as I brushed my fingers through Coles hair and kissed his forehead one more "I love you so much.. Don't forget how much you are loved." I was pulled away by Kirk as the ambulance officers placed his body in a bag and I screamed crying into his chest, fighting him but gave him and slumped to the floor, him holding me as I cried while they took him away. "what if he wakes up.." I began to panicked. Kirk sighed "Lucy, he's not going to wake up.. He's gone."

"you didn't do this.." I threw my arms around him "you didn't do it.. He.." I buried my face in to the crook of his neck, realisation hitting me "we have to tell Ollie.. The girls.." oh god, how to even start that

"kaiden.." I pulled away, shaking my head "I need you to stay here, the kids will need you.." wiping my eyes. I need you. I looked at Kirk for help.

"Lucy's right, Coles not going to the hospital bro, he's on his way to the morgue and they won't let you in until arrangement have been made.. I'm sorry."
