Bleeding Hearts, chapter 18
A week later Rose left the doctor's room with a worried look on her face and the doctor followed her.
"Are you Mr. May...Rose's Father?" He asked.
I looked down at her. "Um... yeah. Brian May." I held out my hand then realised what I had called my self.
As he shook my hand I screwed my face up with embarrassment and cursed silently. Rose was just standing there laughing her head off. I gave her an evil stare then looked at the doctor with a face as strait as possible.
"Nice Name. I am a big Queen fan my self. You are very lucky to share the name of the best guitar player in the world."
I stood there trying not to burst into tears from laughter. I always knew how to fuck it up for myself. I nodded slightly. "So...um. What is the news about Rose here?"
The doctor sighed. "Well it seems that she is pregnant. She in fact missed her period today so it is quite easy to tell and all the tests proved positive."
I sighed. "Rose. Come here honey." I pulled her into a hug. "Are you okay?" She nodded. "Grace is gunna be a grandma at 34. Weird," I said quietly into her ear.
She laughed and hugged tighter.
"Thank you doctor," I said as I stood up. "We'll go home and tell her mother now I think." With that we left.
We walked into the parking lot and I kissed her passionately. As I pushed her up against the side of the car and moved my hands onto her ass the doctor that had been with Rose walked out the hospital and gave us a truly disgusted look. He was about to object when I broke away from Rose for a moment. "Oh, Go fuck a pigeon!" I yelled at him and he ran off to throw up in a bush then kept on running.
I looked down at Rose who was smiling widely. "4 kids. Wow 'Brian'. You're doing well for yourself."
I looked taken aback. "Hey. Your mum is a whole other generation ahead of me now. She is gunna be a grandmother. I wonder how she'll take it."
Suddenly the look of joy disappeared from her eyes. "Do you want this baby I mean...we met about a week ago and you got me pregnant already. Are you ready for it?"
I hugged her kindly. "Rose. If I didn't honestly think this I wouldn't say this but I am totally ready. It is you who has the excuse not to be ready. All of my other kids were...well not mistakes. I am so happy I had them...and lost one of them. But they were unexpected and I still love them more than you can imagine. I am ready with every ounce of my body. No matter what everyone thinks of you or me. I will keep you safe for as long as I live. I promise."
She smiled. "Tre...you're so...I dunno...caring I suppose. You know what to say to make me happy." She kissed me kindly. Not like she had kissed before. A proper kiss that really meant something. It was only about 5 seconds long but it was the perfect kiss.
*Grace's POV *
I was sitting in the motel waiting for a pizza I had ordered for tea when I heard the door click open and Tre walked in with Rose at his heel. We had got into a regular routine now that we had been here for a week. Well sort of... we would basically do what ever the hell we felt like as long as Tre didn't get seen. No one had heard a thing from Billie Joe or Mike but we had seen things in papers and on the TV about Tre being missing. It was sort of scaring me that I was caught up in the middle of it but I could deal with it at the moment. As long as nothing else happened it should be fine. I was choosing not to look into the future and think about what might happen.
"Hey mum," Rose said as she sat down on the sofa and Tre placed himself on the other side of her to me.
Rose whispered something to Tre quietly then turned to me. "Um...there is something we need to tell you."
I didn't really pay much attention I just stared at the TV. "Okay. What is that?"
She took a deep breath. "Well... "
*Ten minutes later *
*Rose's POV *
I was sitting out side crying. Mum hadn't taken it so well and had chucked me out the room. A few minuets later Tre followed me and sat down besides me. I took a long drag of the Joint I was smoking and looked into his eyes. "Your mum says you can come back inside now," He said calmly.
I shrugged. "Okay...I won't strait away but thanks." I kissed him on the lips and gave him a hug. "I love you Tre," I whispered.
He smiled and hugged back. "I love you too."
Thoughts swirled around my mind but I couldn't pick any particular ones out. They were mostly questions about my future. If Tre and me would work out? There was nearly 20 years between us and some people wouldn't approve of that. I was underage and the police would be even angrier with Tre than they already where.
I breathed in the cold night air before standing up and walking inside to face my mum. I walked in and she welcomed me with open arms.
"Sorry," We whispered in unison and both laughed slightly.
I looked at her in the face and she had tears in her eyes. She was so much taller than me and I had to look up to her. "I'm gunna be a grandma." She laughed. "I'm only 34 for god's sake."
I smiled. "35 by the time the baby's due." She smiled back and hugged me.
*In Berkeley *
*Mike's POV *
*4 months later *
No one had heard anything from Tre. There had been a few reports of him being sighted but they had all been false alarms. Of course we had to stop doing shows and everything like that but record sales had sky rocketed from all the publicity we had been getting from the news but this just encouraged people to call us sell outs even more which was really starting to piss Billie Joe off. Frankie and Ramona were getting really worried about it all now. Frankie didn't really understand what was going on but knew it wasn't just a tour because Billie Joe and me were still there. Claudia had been questioned so many times it was driving her insane but I suppose it was the same for me.
I knocked on Billie Joe's door and Joey answered it. I had been giving him counselling for 3 months now. He had been seriously screwed up but he was starting to look on the positive side of things now. "Hey Joey. You ok mate?"
He shrugged and let me in. "I suppose I am at the moment. Are you here to see dad?"
I nodded and walked in.
"DAD! IT'S MIKE!"
Billie Joe appeared at the top of the stairs. His hair was messed up, his tie was really loose and his fly was undone. I heard Adrienne giggle from down the corridor. I rolled my eyes and he did up his trousers. Billie Joe had no idea I had been talking to Joey about his problems... to be honest I don't think he knew he had any problems. He was a good dad and all but his observational powers were not very impressive.
"Hi Mike," He said as he ran down the stairs. He did up his tie and ran his fingers through his hair a few times. "What's up?"
I shrugged. "Dunno. I'm just bored. Nothing to do around here since Tre left."
He nodded. "I know what you mean." He wandered into the lounge and sat on one of the chairs and I sat on the sofa next to it. For the next few minutes we barely said anything.
Billie Looked up at me. "We really need Tre back."
"Are you Mr. May...Rose's Father?" He asked.
I looked down at her. "Um... yeah. Brian May." I held out my hand then realised what I had called my self.
