Hi again :) I don't know about anyone else but I love Heath and April together! I really hope something comes of their night together in the season finale. I usually only concentrate on one story at a time but I've got nearly fourty chapters of my other home and away fanfic Pure Shores written so I can afford to take some time for this. The idea just came to me and I had to write it! I really hope you enjoy. Please review! Love you all, Gleefulbabe

Chapter 1

April Scott was trying her very best to avoid Heath Braxton. After the first night they spent together, things were fun. Their relationship (If that's what you could call it) had to be kept a complete secret of course. No one would understand, especially Bianca and April's closest friends. She and Heath were two consenting adults just having fun. No strings attached fun. At least it was no strings attached until things started gettin complicated. Way too complicated. Hence the reason April found herself avoiding the man that took her virginity the night of the formal. And she had been successful; April knew that Heath would never approach her when she was with Bianca and anytime she wasn't, she carefully evaded him... until now.

April, Ruby and Casey were hanging out in the diner, relishing their new found freedom since the end of school and especially exams. April's head was all over the place as it often was recently and Ruby noticed. "April are you okay?" she wondered.

April nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine."

Ruby looked dubious. "It's not the OCD is it?" she wondered lowly.

"Oh, no. I'm just a bit distracted. I'm fine really." She assured her best friend and looked down for a moment. When she looked back up, Heath was just walking in the door. Panic was beginning to take over and April found her breathing becoming very shallow. She contemplated getting out of there like she usually did, but it was too late, Heath had seen her. Please don't talk to me, please don't talk to me. April thought, trying to convince herself that Heath wouldn't wouldn't talk to her in public, but she knew she was only fooling herself. It was Heath Braxton afterall. Nothing was off limits for him, something April both liked and disliked about the middle Braxton brother.

Heath put on his usual smug smile and made his way over to the table. "Well if it isn't the geek squad!" he greeted the three but April knew he was only putting on a show.

Casey chuckled. "Yeah 'cause I really got a lot of studying done in Juvie!"

Ruby kissed her boyfriend. "Have I told you lately how glad I am to have you back."

Casey smiled. "Only just every two minutes." he said and kissed her again.

Heath rolled his eyes. "Get a room would you. April, can I speak to you outside for a minute?" That was exactly what she had been dreading.

April nodded. "Sure." she had half-heartedly while getting up. She noticed the look of confusion that Ruby and Casey shared and didn't make eye contact as she followed Heath out the door and down to a bench by the sea side.

He leaned up against the bench. "What's up?"

April played dumb. "Nothing. Why?"

Heath gave her a knowing look. "Don't give me that. You've been avoiding me."

"I haven't been avoiding you." she told him as firmly as she could.

It didn't work. "I know you've been avoiding me Ap," Heath place his hand on her forearm but she quickly shook it off, "I just down know why. We were having fun."

April grimaced. "Well it's not fun for me anymore. We can't be seen together anymore Heath."

He looked confused. "Why, what's with the sudden change of heart?"

She pursed her lips. "I'm pretty sure you don't want to know." April said looking away.

Heath placed his hand on her jaw and gently brought her gaze back to his. "I do want to know. Tell me."

April removed his hand from her face. She couldn't believe that she was about to tell Heath Braxton this. "Fine. Don't say I didn't warn you." she told him and when he nodded briefly and April took a deep breath. Here goes everything. "I'm pregnant Heath."
