Sometimes the Hardest Thing and the Right Thing are the Same ; for <user site="livejournal.com" user

One encounter.

One decision to go out, a few drinks, and a very attractive, very flirty guy wearing down her defenses led to his apartment. His bed. And a night full of things Maddie thought she'd never be doing. And now, months later, it's obvious that one of those decisions hadn't been the right one.

She sits in his office, having told the receptionist that it was urgent to see him, and she waits. She fidgets with her fingers, looks around nervously, and considers bolting. But after months of searching with no luck whatsoever, she caught a news story one morning, getting ready for class. And there he was: Tyler Green. The father of her soon to be born baby.

Yeah, it's probably a good idea to at least let him know. Even if she's scared to death of his reaction. This was the right thing to do, right?

...

Right?

It's a little nerve-wracking, to be honest, but Maddie has been going to doctor's appointments almost just like this for months at this point, so this should be no big deal. It's just that usually, she's alone. Or her roommate Jamie is with her. This was strange and unusual, and a little bit uncomfortable. She supposes, though, that when Tyler is proven to be the father, if he decides to stick around, he might come to more.

She manages a short little chuckle, and nods. "I'm twenty-one. Nothing to worry about there." She's never been a liar, and she's not really the type to actually go out a lot and drink. That night had been a change of pace, a mutual friend's birthday. Guess it turned out quite differently than she'd expected.
