He pulled it of the trash, and, to his surprise, found a pregnancy test in the paper, reading it, it said POSITIVE.
He knew it couldn't be Miley; sure, she was going out with Oliver before her death, but she would never do this. Miley's newfound friend Ashley didn't have a boyfriend but humungo crush on Dandruff Danny, and he didn't know it. Luanne was out, too, as she had moved into the Stewart residence to be taught a lesson. It had to be…LILLY.
He heard her walk in the house and close the door behind her. "Lilly, get me some toilet paper!" She blushed slightly and walked in, her left hand stretched out, her right in front of her eyes. "Don't leave, Lil." He said, flushing the toilet. "I need to talk to you."
She was wondering what to do when he said, "What happened two weeks ago?" Lilly said calmly, "Miley's funeral was planned and the date set for two days from now." "After that, bonehead." She giggled and Jackson said, "This is no laughing matter, Lilly." He held up the test.
She burst into tears and said, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" "Who is the father? I'm gonna beat him up the next time he gets his hands on my girl." "Jackson! Please! It's um, it's…you." The words slipped out of her mouth quietly, as she thought of what would happen to her.
Jackson half smiled and said, "Three things. One: are we going to keep this secret from anyone?" Lilly nodded. "Two: How long have you known?" "Six days." "Three: I've always wanted to be a father at seventeen, and I will be." His birthday, he figured, was in a few days. What a present!
Lilly started speaking. "I know exactly how to keep this secret from our parents: she told me to move closer to you, like out of the house, because you're my boyfriend and you need it after Miley. Your dad told you to move out, too, to be closer to me after Miley. We could tell our parents that we're getting married so we can feel better. Then, we move in together, but don't tell them. This all needs to be done in three weeks, when I'll get morning sickness. You get a better job, and then we can have the baby and afford the hospital room."
"I love the way you think." Said Jackson with a smile. "But what about school and our friends?" "We'll tell them. You think I could keep a secret from Oliver?" Laughing, Jackson replied something simple: No.
They had it all planned and they bought their dream home (with help from Mrs. Truscott and Mr. Stewart, and they agreed marrying could relieve their pain from Miley's death.) and they chose the names Ruby for a girl and Dylan for a boy.
Okay, here's chapter two, Ruby Baby! (If you read the names, you'll see why it's called Ruby Baby.) And by the way, for a girl the middle name will be Miley to remember her and for a boy Oliver to remember Oliver who might die too, from cancer. I update every weekday for y'all! Bye!
