This is my first fanfiction in a while and my first on this site. Please give it a chance and review!
Disclaimer: I do not own the ABC show Switched at Birth, because if I did the show would have more then 10 episodes and Sean Berdy would be all mine.
Bay sat shocked in her garage with the 7 pregnancy tests in front of her. All positive. She was trying to ignoring the signs from the past 3 weeks. But her period hadn't come last week, and deep down she knew why. Her and her inexperienced boyfriend, Emmett must have put the condom on wrong or something. Her phone beeped a reply from said boyfriend. 'i'll be there in 15. what's wrong?' She couldn't tell him over a text! She had to do it in person. She looked up the sign for pregnant on her laptop a few minutes ago because she thought he should at least 'hear' it in his own language. It was a simple sign, she thought. Hands at her waist coming together to meet tensely intertwined.
What would he say? Would he wonder if it was his? Would he ask that? Bay would never cheat on Emmett, she loved him! She wanted to be with him for a very long time. Maybe forever. Then the bigger question. Would she keep it? Adoption? Abortion? She wasn't a super religious person, but she thought there might be a god. Would god be mad if she didn't keep the baby? Would Emmett be mad if she didn't want it? Some people though abortion is murder. But what about her life? Was that selfish? Well, not just her's, it would be Emmett's life too. She was 16. Having a baby would ruin her future, whatever that included. Not mention Emmett's. Speak of the devil, Emmett knocked on the slightly ajarred door and peaked his head in, removing Bay from her thoughts. Bay, in her garage, not painting? Emmett thought.
"What's wrong?" Emmett signed. Was she going to break up with him? Was learning sign language getting to hard? Was she giving up on him? I didn't think she would do that, but Bay was full of surprises. One of the things he loved about her. He told Bay, with his voice, that he loved her a month ago, not too many days later was followed by them having sex. Emmett hadn't had sex before and he was really scared that she might of already lost her virginity to someone else. Maybe Ty, or even Liam. But his thoughts were reassured by Bay when she told him it was her first time too. He thought back to that night as he looked at his girlfriend. For some reason she looked more nervous now then that night. She looked around, not meeting his eyes. They kept going to the table where a bunch of white plastic thi-Emmett's eyes quickly shot back just to his girlfriend's now teary brown ones.
"I'm pregnant." Bay signed, breaking into more tears. Emmett didn't say anything more, but quickly pulled his girlfriend closer to him. They hugged tightly for so long, Bay couldn't help but wanting to stay in his arms forever. When Emmett did release her from his grasp, he looked her in the eyes and the same words he did a close to a month ago.
"I love you." he spoke. Bay smiled through her tears. She loved the sound of his unpracticed voice.
"I will always love you." he spoke again. Bay hugged him tight again. When she broke the hug. Emmett opened his mouth to speak again for her, but she put a finger to his lips to stop him.
"You don't need to speak for me." She signed. Emmett smiled at girlfriend who had learned so much sign language from the day he meet her.
"We have to talk about what we want to do." Bay spoke and signed the words she knew, which were close to all of them. Emmett nodded as he pulled her to the love seat in Bay's makeshift art studio.
"Whatever you choose, I'll support you." He signed slowly, then he kissed her forehead. Bay smiled weakly.
"What if I want to..." Bay started.
"Keep it? I'll help you raise it. I promise." Emmett signed strongly to reassure her.
"No...what if I don't want to keep it?" Bay said with strained look on her face.
Does anyone think this story is worth continuing? Sound off in the reviews if you want me to continue. I know this is a different type of story, and I know a lot of people are against abortion, but this is just a different view. So many pregnant stories, but no one see the other side, the side that's hidden, I think. So please tell me if this sucks or if it's worth me writing more chapters! Any comments/criticism is welcome! Also tell me if see any typos! Thank you so much for reading!
