[CLOSED] Life in the fast lane.

[zoey ashlyn martyn]

Zoey panicked as soon as she realized the doctor was a guy. Swallowing the knot in her throat, she took a step back. Tony held her hand tight to keep her from running.
"N-..no.. I don't want to do this...." She insisted, tears rolling down her cheeks.

Dakota barked and Rex straightened up. "Britton, right? Can I have a word with you?" He called.

[britton "britt" markus roberts]

"The officer asked us to be gentle. So we're going to use what we normally use on the littler kids who have to do this. It doesn't hurt at all, I promise. Would you rather a female doctor?" He asked, sitting the box down on the table.

Britt jumped at the bark, shaking his head. "Fucking Marmaduke.." He muttered. "Yeah. But I go by Britt because that makes me seem less like a planet." He said, walking a little closer. "Why?"

[zoey ashlyn martyn]

Zoey nodded, practically pressed up against the wall as far as she could get. Tony hugged her tightly and she buried her face in his chest, even her little brother taller than her.

Rex shifted his weight, sightless eyes looking in the direction of his voice as he moved and spoke. "Why not? Look, it's pretty obvious the way she tried refusing that you've slept with her, especially if she has nothing to worry about when it comes to whose kid it is. They're going to arrest you for sleeping with a minor. But..I know her family and how rough she has it, and I know she's a trouble child. So I might be able to work something out once they get results and I'll be able to get you out, okay? But just this once, and you didn't hear it from me."

[britton "britt" markus roberts]

The doctor walked out, and a little while later a female doctor and her nurse came in. The nurse smiled at Zoey. "Would you like to change first?" She asked.

Britt sighed, running his hands up and down his legs. "I know what they're going to do, okay? Everyone sees it as some creepy twenty-something having sex with a little kid." He moved out of the way as someone walked past. "They don't get that we aren't like everyone else.. You have eighty years to live. I'm lucky if I make it to tomorrow. I shouldn't have fallen in love with her, but I did. I'm not asking for a get-out-of-jail-free card. Having to be around her mother is prison enough. And now I have to watch her.. her baby grow and her stomach get big and know that it's not mine? I can handle jail time and a don't-let-him-around-your-teenagers stamp on my records.."

[zoey ashlyn martyn]

Zoey bit her lip. "Please.." She whispered, straightening up some. She waited, then changed and sat down, hanging on to Tony's hand tightly again as he stood beside her.

Rex let out a slow breath. "I know that's going to be rough.. I just lost a pregnancy with my girlfriend, an accident that I thought I would dread. I'd give anything for that chance again. That isn't the point, and believe me, her mother will get over it as long as you treat her right. If you want to be locked up, fine.. But I owe her my life for saving mine once upon a time, and getting somebody she loves out of prison is something I can do.. She needs you, Britton.. And not through bars and once a week calls."

[britton "britt" markus roberts]

The nurse left her a gown, then the two left her to get changed. They came back in a few minutes later, and the doctor washed her hands. The nurse eased the bed down so she was laying flat, and the doctor started to open packages. "Just lay down flat, okay? If you move up a little on the bed, you can get your knees up. It's not gonna hurt at all. And no, I'm not just saying that like they tell you when you get shots."

Britt just looked down at the ground, chewing on his lip. "I heard one time that when you just.. assume things are going to turn out bad, they always do. That's why I always just try to look at things like they're gonna be peachy. But if you try, you can have another kid.. I can't have any." He shrugged. "If you can get me out, do it. All I know is I need to take care of her and this baby.."

[zoey ashlyn martyn]

Zoey laid back, pulling her knees up slowly as Tony petted her hair. Her heart was racing, breaths quock as she worked her trembling jaw, squeezed her eyes closed. She didn't care what they said at this point.

Rex shrugged. "I doubt she even wants a kid.." He murmured, shifted his weight against the car. "As for you though, I'm pretty sure Zoey won't let anyone near her long enough for an abortion. She's going to have a kid with no rightful father. So by DNA or not, take that position.. Just because you can't create a kid doesn't mean you can't have one."

[britton "britt" markus roberts]

The doctor worked carefully so she didn't hurt Zoey, and once she was done, she put everything in a bag. "See? All done. You can go now." She said with a smile, leaving Zoey and Tony to go give the evidence to Blake.

"You mean the blonde cop inside? She spends like.. every Saturday at the park with the little kids. I know cause I always walk through the park to get to the coffee shop before work. I'm pretty sure she'd be one of those annoying mother who always have to show off their kid." He said, not bothering to comment on what he said next. He didn't like the idea of Jason's baby inside of his girlfriend. "My doctor has my DNA and records and everything, so you can just get all that from them.. They close at six."

[zoey ashlyn martyn]

Zoey drew in a breath, Tony helping her sit back up and change again. She ran a hand through her hair, following him outside and not bothering wait for Blake as she moved for the doors and towards Britton, threw her arms around him and hugged him tight.

Rex shrugged silently. This wasn't about him right now. He listened to the patter of footsteps, Zoey's broken sniffles, and waited for Blake to catch up.

[britton "britt" markus roberts]

Britt wrapped his arms tightly around her, kissing the top of her head gently as he held her close. "Shh, princess.. Everything's going to be alright.. It's all gonna be okay.." He breathed, slowly running his fingers through her hair. He didn't like it, but he thought he could get used to the idea of Zoey having a baby. "Can I at least go home with her until you get everything back? I don't wanna be sitting in a cell waiting for tests.."

Blake shrugged, leaning down to pat Dakota. "I don't see why not. But if you run, I will personally find you." She said, and he nodded. He had no intentions of going anywhere.
