Teddy's POV
How do I tell him? When do I tell him? All these questions were buzzing around my mind. I look at it again. There's two lines. I'm going to have a baby.
I can't have a baby. I'm only seventeen, a senior in high school. I don't know if I should be happy or not. I've always wanted to be a mother since I was two years old. But now is not the time to have a baby. I'm too young.
I start to think about what I can do. I can't have an abortion. It just doesn't seem right to murder my unborn child, and look at Charlie or Toby.
Adoption isn't an option either. I know I'm too young but still. And besides, giving my child away to a stranger doesn't seem right to me.
I put the positive pregnancy test down and sit on my bed, putting my head into my hands. Then I think about how I'm going to tell Spencer. Today is Saturday and I have nothing to do. Should I tell him today? Or should I wait until I have my first ultrasound and show Spencer the pictures? I decided that I would text Spencer if he was available to hang out today.
T: Are you free to hang out today? I have to tell you something.
S: Sure. What do you have to tell me? Are you breaking up with me?
T: No, I just have to tell you something that I can't tell you over the phone or text.
S: Okay, do you want me to pick you up and we can eat at the café in an hour or two?
T: Sure. See you then.
While I was waiting, I decided to make a doctor's appointment.
"Hi, how may I help you?" The receptionist asked me.
"Hi... um I would like to make an appointment because I'm pregnant and want to see if the baby's healthy or not."
"Okay Miss, please tell me your name and what time is good for an appointment."
"My name is Teddy Duncan, and I would prefer any day after three."
"Would Monday at 3:15 work for you?"
"Yes, thank you. Bye."
I had a couple of hours before Spencer would pick me up and I would tell him that I was pregnant with his child. I was a nervous wreck about it. Would Spencer leave me? Or would he stay and help me through all this? Either way, I was nervous. I'm 17 and pregnant. I would have never guessed that this would happen.
A couple hours later, Spencer came and picked me up. I was really nervous to tell him. But, a small part of me was exited.
"Hey Teddy. Are you ready to go?" Spencer asked me.
"Yeah... let's go."
I hope you liked this chapter. Review if you did.
