Impossible Series - Volume One

DISCLAIMER • I do not own Good Charlotte. I don't even know them; have never met them before, and have no contact with them in any way. Though I wish I did. XD This is all purely fiction; meaning made up from my twisted little mind. I only own the Original Characters. Mwaha!

NOTES • This is a re-write of a story I wrote ages ago with an AIM friend of mind. We've since lost touch and well, I really liked this story and think it has lots of potential, so I'm re-writing it, fixing it, making it better.

SUMMARY • This Series focusses mainly on Benji and Joel Madden. They're dating, boyfriends, lovers... you get my drift. ^_^ The entire series follows them through their good and bad times, and focusses on them and their kids [who are soon to come].

RATING • This Series is rated R. There is mature content, some of which people may not be comfortable reading. Read at your own risk!

EXTRAS • Also, I do tend to make people seem out of character at times. XD Trust me, I don't know how Benji and Joel act towards each other off the camera and out of the public eye, so I'm making it up as I go along.

Now, onto the Series!

• Benji •

Oh my GODS. I need something to eat, I thought to myself, as I looked in the fridge. Leftovers, Domino's... Cheez Wiz; that could work.

I pulled out the jar of Cheez Wiz and set it on the counter, before setting to work looking for some nachos. SUCCESS! I smirked slightly to myself, pulling out a plate and sticking some nachos on it, before pouring the Cheez Wiz ontop. Hmmm... needs something else...

After adding a couple mushrooms, Kool Whip, Mustard, Ketchup and Chocolate Sauce, I stuck the plate in the microwave and put the time on 2 minutes, watching it cook. When it beeped, I pulled it out, and sat down at the table, just as Joel came in.

He sniffed and made a face, "Benji... do I dare ask what the FUCK died in here?"

I pouted, "What? My nachos smell fine!" I defended. "And you needed... ALL THAT," he paused, gesturing to the ingredients on the countertop, "To make NACHOS?"

"I was... experimenting," I pouted more, eating another one. "...I can see that," Joel blinked.

"Want some?" I asked, holding the plate out to him.

"NO! No no no... No thanks. I'm not hungry," he said, putting his hands up and backing away, as though surrendering. "Well fine, more for me," I huffed, crossing my arms. Some people don't appreciate good foods....

"Y'know, you've been eating weirder and weirder foods lately," Joel said slowly, leaning back against the counter. "So?" I asked, frowning. Thats what tended to happen when you're pregnant... odd cravings. Joel didn't know that yet. I was in my fourth month, and still haven't told him. It was totally unplanned, and I was scared of how he'd react to the news.

I didn't even know how to go about telling him. I could just come out and say it. Or I could tell him seriously. Either way, I still don't know how he'd react to it... What if he didn't want a baby? What if he dumped me on the spot? Then what? What if he eventually wanted to have a baby, but not with his brother?

I sighed and pushed my plate away from me, my appetite totally disappearing. I was really scared of Joel's reaction... he'd probably flip out and make me get an abortion or something. But... he can't now, can he? I thought abortion was only possible in the first three months of pregnancy... but I could be wrong. So then he'd dump me instead, leave me alone with the kid and only pay child support.

I sighed in frustration this time. My thoughts were all jumbled with 'What-Ifs' and questions. What I'm sure Joel would really flip out about, was how I'd kept this secret from him for four months so far. I didn't even know about it myself until the second month.

"Benj? You okay?" Joel asked me, his voice laced with concern as he sat down beside me.

I nodded, staring intently at my lap. "You sure?" Joel asked, wrapping an arm around my shoulders and hugging me.

I nodded again, stuffing my hands into the pocket of my hoodie. "I'm still trying to figure out why you're wearing a hoodie in the middle of Summer..." Joel smiled teasingly.

"So?" I pouted, "I'm cold."

"Sorry, sorry," Joel appologised, "But you've been really emotional lately. Are you sure everything's okay?"

"Everything's fine," I mumbled, not sure how much longer I'd be able to keep this a secret. I knew I'd have to tell him eventually... it is his child afterall.

"So, are these things really that good?" Joel grinned, trying to lighten the mood and eating a nacho. He grimaced and swallowed it, "Ugh, gross!"

"Well, that was an attractive face," I sighed, smiling a little, "I like them." I took another bite, before getting up and putting the rest into the fridge.

"Alright... but Benji, I know something's up. You're hiding something from me," Joel said softly, a hint of sadness in his voice, "I never hide anything from you. I don't think I've ever kept a secret from you."

"Kindergarten."

"What?"

"Kindergarten. You broke one of my toys and hid it, and pretened it wasn't you. See, you keep secrets too!" I frowned.

"So, you are hiding something!"

"Joel, this is so stupid. We're too old for keeping secrets!" I said angrily.

"Fine, but I know something's up!" Joel said, visibly upset, "When you decide to tell me, I'll be in our room!" he said, storming off. I almost screamed out, 'I'M PREGNANT!', but something made me stop. I wished I had said it. Because then it'd be out and said, and I could stop thinking about it.

I sighed and sat down on the sofa, not knowing if I should tell Joel or not. Something told me I should. I mean, he does have a right to know, afterall...

I ran my hands over my face, before getting up slowly. I didn't want to think about his reaction, but I knew I had to tell him. I hated keeping anything secret from him. And I hated having him mad at me even more.

I knocked on our door, not wanting to interrupt anything or annoy him.

"What?" Joel spat, and I could practically hear him pacing back and forth.

"Can I come in?" I asked softly.

"Nothing's stopping you."

I went into the room; spotting him sitting on the bed, leaning against the wall. I sighed and sat down beside him.

"Joel, I'm so sorry," I said softly, chosing my words carefully, "I gotta tell you something that I should've told you a while ago."

"What is it?" Joel asked softly, his mood changing to one of concern as he noticed the seriousness of my voice.

"I..." I began, feeling unable to get to words out, "I'm... I'm pregnant, Joel."
