Chapter One "Finding out "
Why...and how is all Clare Edwards could think about oh yeah because I found prince charming she thought bitterly as she wiped the tears rolling down her face with the back of her hand but then again she reminded herself it just wasn`t his (his being Dallas) doing in all of this she had given him the go ahead "Clare come on we`re going to be late for school if you don`t hurry the hell up!"Jake said pounding on the bathroom door.
Quickly standing up Clare tossed the test into the trash can making sure to cover it up before straighten out her black pencil skirt out in the front and back then heading to the door opening it to see Jake standing there "took you long enough don`t cha think?" Jake said with a smirk.
Pushing past him Clare headed down stairs grabbing her shoulder bag that was her backpack and out to the truck waiting for Jake to come "took you long enough don`t cha think?" Clare said mocking Jake to which he rolled his eyes and remarked back as she took a swig out of her "pink" water bottle "Funny little mama" Clare choked on her water "what?" "Sorry my cable box in my room got stuck on the bet network" she shaked her head "quote Jeff Dunham much?" she said in her head as they pulled up to Degrassi high school.
Clare`s point of view;
As I entered Degrassi I saw Katie who gave me a warm smile before skipping into Jake`s arms and giving him a kiss, I smiled at the exchange it was actually kind of sweet and not to mention nice to know at less one of us was going to have a great high school life considering mine was about to become short lived.
I sighed as I put in my combo "for you angel "I heard the voice of my boyfriend of five months said behind me as a fake red rose was placed in front of my face I smiled "that`s sweet mikey "I said using his nickname I used for him as I finally got my locker open, I turned around and placed a kiss on Dallas's lips before pulling away and taking the fake rose and placing it with the others.
The others coming from all the other times he brought them to school for me and telling me the only reason they were fake was because the rose won`t die and that`s how long his love for me would last while Bianca, Owen and Luke (whom I had became very good friends with) would just said it`s his way of being cheap seeing as he could just drive to the nearest dollar store to buy one, oh well it was the thought that counts right?.
"You alright babe that kiss was pretty short?"Dallas said as he took my first period`s books into his hands closing my locker door and wrapping his arm around my shoulder.
I sighed knowing sooner or later he`d have to know he had just as much as right as I did"can we go somewhere for lunch I`d kind of need to talk to you about something" he`s face soon became worried but he agreed to going somewhere else for our longest break the bell soon ringed and Dallas walked me to the class .
Giving him a kiss goodbye I then walked into my homeroom which I had with Ali ,Jenna and Adam I sighed I knew I`d have to tell them as well ...well maybe not Ali so soon seeing as she kind of has a thing for gossip and drama and she`s never ever had a child growing inside of her before but Jenna has I mean yes Jenna and I have had our ups and downs but she`s gone though this before she`d have an insight on this that no one else would have.
I sighed and walked over to a smiling Jenna and Ail while Adam sat in front of them "Hey Mrs. Dallas" Jenna said with a chuckle "what`s up lover girl" Ail then added "Guys leave her alone it`s not her fault she`s happy" Adam said smiling at me "oh shut up Mr. Baker" Jenna and Ail shouted at him I couldn`t help but laugh at that one as I sat down and other students came in.
Soon class ended and it was now lunch I throw my books in my locker as Dallas came up to me "you ready to go babe?" I nodded as he grabbed my hand and we lefted going to the dot "so what did you want to talk about?" I took a deep breath "remember how we?" I asked making him nod "well umm I think the condom must of came apart because umm..."I said as tears started to come down "I`m ,you`re" I stopped talking he must have got what I was trying to say because his face became hard before turning soft "we`re going to be parents?" he asked making me nod he then shocked me by turning around starting to walk out of the dot and right back to Degrassi I ran out after him "DALLAS!" I yelled out after him but he kept walking getting faster with each step.
"You`re going to be a mom "I turned around stunned that someone heard us but I was glad about who it was thankfully it was Jenna well maybe am not that lucky since Jenna could turn around and turn everyone who walk on by but one could never know.
I nodded as tears fell down my face "and now am going to have to make choices for this baby on my own" Jenna then did something that was shocking she grabbed me and hugged me tight whispering in my ear "it`s alright clarebear if Dallas won`t be there then you have me, Ail, Adam not to forget Jake and shockingly Bianca ,Owen and Luke people who love and care about you look "she said pulling away and holding my hands in hers "I know we`ve had our ups and downs but I'd like to get back to the friendship we had before I took K.C. from you "she said kind of smiling at me I smiled a little bit back taking my hand and wiping my tears away and nodded "I`d like that" I said before having my name called out by Luke and Owen who ran over to me hugging me as soon as they reached me "Clare what happen Dallas came back to the school and almost killed rookie`s ass when he asked what was wrong and all he said when we pulled him away was to come and get you" Owen said being the one who`d kick anyone`s ass if they messed with me or Dallas or anyone of our group of friends.
"oh my god she`s crying Clare what`s wrong?"Luke asked when I wasn`t answering back I guess he took notice to Jenna because he soon turned to her and started tossing questions towards her way "why is she crying? What happened? , what did you do to her?" Jenna who took no offense to any of this started answering the questions "Dallas, she told him something and he walked off and thirdly I overheard so I came and checked on her only to find her crying so I talked with her "Luke`s face was now filled with guilt "oh am sorry it`s just she`s became like a sister to us so am overprotive of her just like I am when it comes to Becky" he said smiling a little before turning back to me and Owen "Clare please tell us what you told Dallas what Jenna overheard we won`t tell anyone you know" Owen said I turned back to him only said six words "I'm going to be a mom".
"And Dallas just walked away "Owen and Luke both said making me nod "Luke stay here with Clare and Jenna "Owen said before getting up I grabbed his arm "No Owen don`t if he doesn`t want to stay no one can make him but he`s going to miss out on the amazing child that will be his child because am not giving this baby up nor will I get rid of it" I said realizing that Dallas is his own person as I am and I didn`t need him to bring up this baby yes sure it`d be hard at first but as long as I work at it no one would be able to say I didn't try.
