Chapter One

My name is Allison Argent and I'm seventeen. Last week I found out I was pregnant and haven't told my boyfriend or my dad yet. Last night I was up all night throwing up, not fun yet all. My dad thought I had a really bad flu.

This morning, I woke up and got dressed for school. Today was a Monday morning. I walked downstairs and into the kitchen where I found my Aunt Kate, and dad, Chris.

"Allison, do you want to stay home today?" My dad asked me as I grabbed the orange juice out of the fridge, "You were really sick last night." He added.

Believe me I wanted to stay home, but I couldn't.

"No, I'm fine." I lied to him, "I think I just ate something bad." He nodded to me, and then looked at Kate who glanced back at him, "Well, I gotta go." I said to them as I headed for the door, "I'm meeting Lydia before school. I'll see you guys later."

"You hanging out with Scott again tonight?" Aunt Kate asked, being nosy as I got to the front door.

"Ya." I lied again. Good thing I was a good liar. Otherwise, they would have figured out I was pregnant without me telling them, and that would be bad, "I'll see you guys night." I added before leaving.

I drove to Lydia's house so we could go to school together. I didn't feel well enough to drive myself, but Lydia's house was just down the street, so she could drive us. Plus I couldn't just leave my car home that would seem suspicious to my dad for his strange unknown reasons.

When I got to Lydia's house, I pulled into her garage after she moved her car.

"Thanks for letting me leave my car in here." I thanked Lydia closing her garage as she put our bags into her own car.

"No problem." She replied as I walked over to her car and we both got in, "My mom said it was fine, but she is wondering why?" Lydia added. I looked at her as she started her car.

"You didn't tell her, did you?" I asked worried as Lydia pulled out of her driveway and headed to our school.

"Of course not." She said, "If I tell her, then she will tell your dad, and I know you want to be the one to tell him."

"I'm gonna tell Scott before my dad and Kate." I admitted to Lydia as we drove down the street

"I know you're worried about how they're going to react." Lydia said to me, " If they kick you out, you can always stay with me" She offered smiling glancing at me before shifting her eyes back into the road.

"Thanks, Lydia." I smiled sighing.. There was a few minutes of silence before Lydia asked.

"So how far are you?"

"About 5 weeks" I answered, then my eyes dropped onto my lap as I whispered loud enough for my best friend to her, "I don't know what I'm going to do"

"Allison, you don't have to decide what you're going to do with it right now." She reminded me, and then put one of her hands on my knee.

"What I'm going to do with them." I corrected her. Lydia whipped her head over at me and quickly pulled over to the side of the road.

"Them?" She questioned staring at me. My eyes flickered up to her as I said shrugging.

"I'm having twins." Lydia continued staring at me after a long time. I sighed lying back in the passenger seat, "Can we just get to school?" I finally asked Lydia, "I don't want to talk about this right now." Lydia didn't say anything, just nodded, and then fixed herself in the driver's seat before pulling back onto the main road.

When we finally got to school and parked, I got right out and walked into school without waiting for Lydia.
