A/N: I had a new idea for the Haven series. This will be a multiple chapter story. I will still continue to do oneshots for the series that will fit in the timeline between Forever In My Heart and this story, but I'm thinking of moving them all under the title 'Forever My Safe Haven' otherwise they'll be all over the place.
Thanks to HotchnerJareau for helping me flesh this idea out! Everyone should go and check out her stories, especially Time Will Tell! Super cute and super good story!
Also, I've been nominated in the 2014 Profiler's Choice Awards. It would mean the world to me if you went and cast a vote for me, especially for my story 'Stars Can't Shine Without Darkness'. If you haven't read that story, it's based on the true story of my friend Chloe, a brain cancer survivor.
Please consider having a look at the PCA's. All the rules and the ballot are on the forum!

This was not supposed to happen.
At least, not like this.
Staring at the white stick in her hand, Haven LaMontagne was already working hard to fight back her tears.
Of all the things that she wanted to happen in her junior year, getting pregnant was not one of them.
Wrapping the positive test up securely in toilet paper, she buried it at the bottom of the wastebasket, choking back a sob as she did so. Her parents were going to kill her.
Flushing the toilet, she moved over to the counter, leaning heavily against the sink as she fought to regain control of her emotions.
Pregnancy tests weren't entirely accurate. It could be an incorrect reading.
But deep down, she knew it wasn't. She'd slept with Connor Hamilton just over two months earlier, and she hadn't had a period since then.
"Haven?" came her mother's voice at the door. "Can you hurry up sweetie? Your dad's using our bathroom"
"Yeah," Haven called back, hastily wiping her eyes. "Just a sec"
Quickly splashing her face, she dried her hands on the nearest hand towel, dabbing away the remaining moisture on her face. She dumped the now damp towel beside the sink, turning and pulling the door open.
"You ok?" JJ asked gently, looking at her daughter with concern.
"Fine," Haven said quickly, slipping past her mom and heading straight for her room.
Watching her daughter's retreating back, JJ frowned.
That 'fine' had been uncomfortably familiar.
