Loving Lance (Loving Jaxton Spin-off)✔️

Chapter 10

Two weeks later

Izzy's POV

It's not until two weeks later that I come up with a three-step plan. A plan, with help of my counselor who has no idea, one that makes me feel like I'm making the best choice, for my mental health and for the health of my baby. And that starts when I drive from my mothers' house to my dad's and wait on his front step for him to open the door.

He's shocked, to say the least when he opens it. "I don't want anything from you. I came to get a few of Gary's things I left behind before leaving." I tell him immediately.

"Umm, okay," he tells me letting me in and upstairs to what used to be my room for years. It's sad I'm walking away from this place, but I have to for my mental health.

When I make it to my room I pack up Gary's things and try taking some of my favorite things as well. Thirty minutes later I've packed all I can and I make it back to my car when I realize my dad's standing behind it and opens the hatch for me. I don't tell him thank you, I just put my stuff in ready to leave.

"Izzy where are you going to stay?" He asks when I stop and turn.

"I found a hotel, off the highway, that's nice. I'll stay there for the next two months until I graduate since mom apparently found out and disowns me, and then I'm moving to California to have the baby and start college part-time while working. I'll have to take out loans but I've figured out what I'm doing. If anyone asks, and I mean anyone, you tell them I moved away and you don't know where I am. You want my baby dead and so does the father, that's not happening and I'm going as far away as I can to protect it and me." I tell him slamming the door shut before I drive off.

Step 1, Dad, complete.

I drive towards Maddie's house, and since she still hasn't spoken to me in two weeks other than making sure I'm still alive I know she's going to be shocked. I ring the doorbell and wait. Surprisingly Kurt opens the door and laughs when he sees me.

"Came for which one?" He asks as I sigh. "Maddie," I tell him as he nods. "Good choice, she's in her room." He tells me moving out the way as I nod and follow the stairs to her room. I knock and she doesn't answer, so I push the door open a little to see her sitting at the desk doing homework.

"Hi" I whisper opening the door as she turns around to my voice. "What are you doing here?" She spits out.

"To apologize. Maddie, I'm sorry okay. I just fell in love with Lance and I know I hurt you but I couldn't help it. I'm sorry. I just want my best friend back before I leave for college, and I want my sister back." I tell her as she sits crossing her arms.

"I've thought about it." She tells me as I nod and reach down holding my belly to protect my baby in a way I guess.

"My mom didn't have to tell me but I gathered enough to know what your dad told you." She tells me looking at my belly.

"Then you know how bad I need you right now," I whisper as she nods and wipes her eye.

"I don't care if you're with him. I just-, he's my brother. Izzy you could have told me you had feelings for him and I might not have been happy but it would have been so much better instead of just lying to me. That hurt me the worst, knowing you kept something so big from me." She tells me as I nod.

"I know Mads. Which is why I'm not anymore. I have a plan for this and I need your help." I tell her.

"What kind of plan?" She asks as I reach behind me and shut the door to her bedroom.

"You know Reed gave me a few hundred dollars to get an abortion right?" I ask her as she nods.

"And my dad wants me to kill my baby," I tell her as she nods again.
