On the way to Eli's house it was really quiet; he kept his hand on mine the whole time reassuring me that everything would be fine. I looked at the time and noticed it was 4:30pm.

"It's going to be ok, Clare" I guess he noticed I was still nervous.

"I know, but I'm still worried about what they're going to say"

"Clare, you had to tell me you were pregnant alone, this time you'll have me with you as we tell my parents it's going to be ok." he said making me feel a lot better.

I changed the subject since I felt better telling his parents about the pregnancy.

"Eli, how are you feeling?" I asked hoping I wasn't the only one who was scared, nervous, excited rolled into one.

"I'm scared of what your parents are going to say, I'm scared you'll get hurt when you give birth, I'm also happy and excited that we're having a baby together even if it's early. Who cares if the timing is off, we're still doing what we were going to do right, only we thought we'd be older."

"That's true. You don't have worry about me getting hurt I'll be ok and that's not for a few more months, I'm also scared to tell my parents, and you're right we were going to do this when we're older so what a few years earlier?" I said gaining confidence

Just as I gained the confidence to tell Eli's parents we pulled into his driveway. He turned off the ignition, got out of Morty, opened my door, took my hand, and helped me out. We walked up the step to his house.

"Are you ready?" Eli asked as he put his hand on the door knob

"Ready as I'll ever be" he looked over and gave me a smirk, then looked straight ahead as he opened the door.

Both of his parents looked over at us and welcomed us in. Eli's mom was just putting dinner on the table as we walked in.

"Come have dinner with us Clare" said Mrs. Goldsworthy as she got an extra table setting for me

I sat next to Eli as we were eating. Luckily we were eating spaghetti and I only needed one hand because Eli was holding my left hand, which probably looked weird because he placed his left hand under the table so he can hold my hand and eat at the same time. Having Eli hold my hand made me feel more comfortable.

"So what's going on?" asked Mrs. Goldsworthy looking at Eli and I.

"Clare and I have something to tell you" he said hesitantly looking over at me

By then both Mr. and Mrs. Goldsworthy were looking at us in anticipation.

"Clare is pregnant"

"Well, I can't say I'm not happy I knew the time was coming that you'd tell me Clare was pregnant I just thought it would be years later." Mrs. Goldsworthy said

"Do your parents know, Clare?" asked Mr. Goldsworthy

"Actually Mr. and Mrs. Goldsworthy, Eli and I didn't tell them yet, well we're afraid to."

"Call me 'Olivia' and what's the worst that can happen?" said Mrs. Goldsworthy

"Call me Max" said Mr. Goldsworthy

"They can kick me out on the streets"

"If they do that you can move in here with us I'm sure Eli would like that" Olivia said

I looked over at Eli and noticed he was blushing; I giggled to myself.

We all talked after that and I helped clear the dinner dishes and Olivia insisted we'd tell my parents just in case they did something like kick me out. Eli and I said our goodbyes before heading off to my house. When we got to Morty, he opened my door, shut it, got in on his side, and started the ignition.

"Here we go" he said as we pulled out of the driveway.

We didn't talk on the way to my house; I guess we were both scared and nervous about what my parents would say and how they would react. I remember the day I took off my purity ring they were angry, but happy I wasn't pregnant, now I'm telling them that I am pregnant.

We've just reached my house and I'm too scared to move. Eli climbed out the car and opened my door and I jumped when he did, but my hands didn't move as I clenched my shirt looking at how wrinkled I was making it.

"Clare it's going to be ok, I'm scared too" he said comfortingly

He noticed I didn't move my head just kept balling up the hem of my shirt; he then bent down and kissed me so I'd look up at him and it worked. Eli took my hand and helped me out of Morty, as we walked to my house hand-in-hand I squeezed his hand as we got closer to the door. Once at the door Eli said "Here we go" as I walked through the door.

I guess my mom figured I was eating over at Eli's because I noticed the dish washer was running, dad was sitting on the couch reading the paper, and mom was sitting at the table looking through a magazine.

"Welcome back and hello Eli" my mom said as she looked at us in confusion because I didn't warn her he was coming over.

"Hi mom"

"Good evening Mrs. Edwards" Eli stated nervously still holding my hand in the doorway.

"What's wrong?" Asked my mom as my dad looked at us putting the paper away

"We need to talk to you about something" he said looking back and forth at my mom and I

"It can't be that bad, it's not like you're pregnant" laughed my mom

Eli and I then looked at each other worriedly and our grip tightened as we were more nervous than before and tears started to come down my face.

"OH MY GOD CLARE YOU'RE PREGNANT! HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN? WAIT I KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED, HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN CLARE? YOU'RE IN HIGH SCHOOL YOU-"

"IT'S NOT LIKE WE PLANNED THIS!" Eli yelled back at my mom

I looked around the room hoping to see my dad that he would say something in my defense or just say something, but he wasn't around. I was unable to move unable to say or do anything all I could do was cry.

"OH THANK GOD YOU DIDN'T PLAN THIS, LIKE THAT MAKES THE SITUATION BETTER!" yelled my mom sarcastically

"MOM! It's going to be ok things are going to work out" I said as I was working up the courage to talk

"Clare how is everything going to be ok when you're having a baby?"

I looked up at the stairs as I heard footsteps coming down and seen my dad with bags in his hand and my laptop case on his arm.

"Here take these for now you can come back for everything later…" he said sounding upset. "It's time for you to go now." Eli took everything and threw my book bag over his shoulder and we walked out of the house.

The ride back to Eli's was also quiet. I didn't like the quiet, but my thoughts were all wrapped around each other: How could they just throw me out? They're my parents. What about school next tomorrow? Then I noticed that Eli shut the engine off and we were at his house.

"We're home." Eli said rubbing my knee.

I looked up and looked over at Eli.

"Everything's going to be ok" he said sweetly with that smirk on his face and kissed me reassuringly

We got out of Morty and Eli got my stuff from the back as we walked up the steps to what is now my new home. We walked inside and Eli closed the door putting down my book bag next to it.

"We're home!" yelled Eli

Right away Olivia stopped what she was doing and looked up at us. She must have known I was upset because as soon as she seen me she ran over and hugged me.

"It's going to be ok Clare we'll take care of you and tomorrow we'll talk about the rules" she said rubbing my shoulders

Eli and I walked to his um... our room; he put down my clothes and kissed me gently.

"What now?" I said sitting on the bed

"What do you mean?" he said with a smirk sitting next to me

"I mean we have school tomorrow what do we do then, Ali said she was stopping by my house later on tonight what will my parents tell her?"

"What time is she supposed to be over?"

"9:30"

"Ok it's only 9 now why don't you text her and tell her what's going on and I'll tell Adam that way we won't have to tell anyone later on?"

"Ok that sounds good" I started texting Ali

Buzz buzz

You're pregnant and your parents kicked you out; you're also living with Eli!

Yes his parents welcomed me with open arms. We don't care if you tell anyone, just not yet.

Ok I won't. So I guess Eli's taking the news well?

Yes very well he's happy and has been helping me a lot today

That's good well I have to ingest the news I'll talk to you tomorrow at school. Oh I heard K.C's back from football camp or where ever he went.

Ok thank you for letting me know I'll talk to you tomorrow. Eli's telling Adam. Good night Ali

Good night Clare

"I told Ali and she took the news really well she said she'll talk to me tomorrow while she ingests everything." I said calmly to Eli with a half smile

"Adam's good too he's excited about seeing us tomorrow" he said while getting off the bed

"Oh Ali said that K.C. is back from football camp or where ever he went" I mumbled

"Oh it's been half a year and as I recall he didn't like the fact that we're dating what will happen now" Eli said curiously

I followed Eli with my eyes as he picked up my bag with my clothes in it and he started to put them away as he made room in his black dresser.

"Need help?"

"No Clare, just relax you had a rough day" he said sweetly

"Ok" I said as he handed me a pair of my pajamas

I went in to the bathroom and changed into my pajamas and rubbed my belly thinking that there was a baby in me. I went back to the room and noticed Eli was sitting on the bed already in his pajamas which just consists of boxers. I noticed that he had half of the red blanket turned down for me to lie in as he sat and watched TV. I joined him in bed and he wrapped his arm around my neck not saying a word we watched TV for half an hour before going to bed.
