Chapter 1

''Allie it's time to get up.'' Brooke called up the stairs to her 17 year old daughter before going back into the kitchen to continue breakfast.

''Where's dad.'' 9 year old Liam asked as he took a seat at the table.

''He went to work.'' Brooke told him. ''Can you go get Ethan and Dominic from the play room for me.'' Brooke asked him.

''Sure mom.'' Liam said getting up from his seat and going to do what Brooke asked.

''Hey mom.'' Skylar said as she came into kitchen and placed a kiss on Brooke's cheek. ''Where is everyone else.'' Skylar asked her.

''Your dad is at work, Liam is away to get Ethan and Dominic from the playroom, and I have called Allie but she is still in bed.'' Brooke told her. ''Watch the breakfast till I go see to your sister.'' Brooke told Skylar. Skylar got up and took over while Brooke headed upstairs.

''Allie it's time to get up or you're going to be late for school.'' Brooke said as she went into Allie's bedroom.

Allie was in her bathroom. ''I'm up, I'm in the bathroom.'' Allie said before she went back to being sick, Brooke was by her side in a minute.

''You're okay.'' Brooke told her as she rubbed her back. When she was finished throwing up Brooke got her a cloth to clean her face and got her a drink of water. ''Come on let's get you back to bed.'' Brooke told her as she helped her up.

''No I need to go to school. I have two projects to hand in.'' Allie told her. ''Really mom I feel fine.'' Allie reassured Brooke.

''You're not feeling well.'' Brooke told her. ''I can take your projects in for you.'' Brooke told her.

''Mom really it was probably just something I ate.'' Allie told her.

''If you begin to feel sick at all come see me in my classroom.'' Brooke told her. ''Breakfast will be ready by the time you come down.'' She added as she left the room.

5 minutes later and Allie met everyone downstairs. ''Hi baby.'' Allie said kissing Ethan on the top of his head.

''Mama.'' Ethan said with a smile.

Allie took a seat at the table beside Ethan. ''Have we got any pickles and mustard.'' Allie asked.

''With pancakes and eggs.'' Skylar asked her with a disgusted look.

''Are you okay Allie, that's some order.'' Brooke asked her,

''Yeah, I'm feeling fine.'' Allie told her as she got up and got the pickles and mustard.

''I'm trying to eat here Allie.'' Liam told her as Allie put the pickles and mustard on her pancakes.

''So am I.'' Allie told him.

Allie met Jamie and Aiden at their lockers. ''Hey guys.'' She said as she reached them.

''Hey Allie.'' Jamie said to her.

''Hey, you okay Allie, you don't look too good.'' Aiden asked her.

''I'm fine, god do they have to make out in the middle of the school hall.'' Allie asked as she nodded her head towards her ex-boyfriend and her ex best friend.

''Jealous are we.'' Aiden teased her.

''Of who Shannon and Andrew.'' Allie asked as all three of them began heading towards their first class. ''Please I have Tyler, who I must say is better in bed than Drew.'' Allie said as they passed the two.

''I bet there isn't even a Tyler.'' Shannon said as she and Andrew stopped kissing.

''That's none of your business. So you can believe what you want to believe.'' Allie told her as she began walking away again.

''Come on Allie, when is this going to end, when are you going to grow up.'' Shannon called out to her.

''Me grow up, I'm not the one who slept with someone else's boyfriend, and I've grown up, I have a son who is 16 months old and is ignored by that thing standing beside you.'' Allie told her as she walked up closer to her.

''That kid is not mine.'' Andrew told her.

''No who does he belong to then.'' Allie asked.

''I don't know how about that guy that hung about you while you discovered you were pregnant.'' Andrew asked her.

''Tyler Murray and I didn't get together until I was 8 months along, so don't try and deny that you are the father.'' Allie told him. ''But don't worry, he doesn't need you.'' She added as the warning bell rang.

''Come on Allie, we're going to be late, they're not worth it.'' Jamie said.

''I'm coming.'' Allie snapped at him.

''Mom, can I go home.'' Allie asked Brooke as she went into her classroom at lunchtime.

''Are you still feeling sick.'' Brooke asked her as she got up from her desk.

''Yeah, and Andrew is getting on my last nerves.'' Allie told her.

''Come on, I'll see if Principal Turner will let me drive you home.'' Brooke told her.

Later that day after Brooke had picked up Liam, Ethan, and Dominic from Karen's house, she went to check on Allie. She went into her room and saw she was fast asleep. ''Sky who brought you home.'' Brooke asked going into her daughter's room.

''Jamie gave me a lift home.'' Skylar told her.

''Was Allie awake when you came in.'' Brooke asked.

''I don't know she was in her room.'' Skylar told her.

''Okay well I'm going to go and start dinner, it is grilled chicken and potatoes with vegetables.'' Brooke told her as she left the room.

''Mom is Tyler joining us.'' Skylar asked before she left.

''I think he is, I'll make extra just encase.'' Brooke told her. ''Okay boys you can watch an hour of TV but please choose something you all like.'' Brooke said to the three boys.

''Okay mom, we can watch Space Jam.'' Liam said to her,

''Mom, can I talk to you.'' Allie asked as she came into the kitchen 20 minutes later to find Brooke sat at the table grading papers.

''What's wrong Al.'' Brooke asked setting her pen down.

''I'm late.'' Allie said.

''Late as in late late.'' Brooke asked her. ''How long.'' She added when Allie nodded yes.

''3 weeks, mom I don't know how it happen, we always used something.'' Allie told her as she took a seat beside Brooke at the table.

''Honey, you should know by now that condoms aren't always safe.'' Brooke told her.

''But I'm on the pill too. And I got pregnant with Ethan because I was stupid and I didn't use anything.'' Allie told her.

''If you keep an eye on the dinner and the kids, I will run to the drug store and get you a test.'' Brooke asked her.

''Okay.'' Allie answered. ''Mom what do I tell Tyler.'' Allie asked her.

''We'll cross that bridge when it comes to it.'' Brooke told her as she picked her keys up.

Brooke was sitting on Allie's bed. ''It will be done in a few minutes the timer will go off.'' Allie said coming out of the bathroom. ''Is daddy going to be mad.'' Allie asked Brooke in a voice that reminded her of a child.

''No sweetheart.'' Brooke told her as Allie rested her head on Brooke's lap.

''I don't want him to get mad at Tyler.'' Allie told her as her tears began to fall.

''He might be at the start but he will get over it.'' Brooke told her. A few minutes later and the timer went off. ''Go on.'' Brooke told her.

Allie walked into the bathroom and picked up the pregnancy stick. ''It's positive.'' Allie told her mom as she walked into her bedroom after seeing the two pink lines.

''It's okay, come here.'' Brooke told her standing up from the bed and taking Allie into her arms.

''I'm sorry.'' Allie said as she hugged Brooke.

''Brooke.'' Lucas called out from the bottom of the stairs.

''You freshen up, and we'll meet you downstairs for dinner.'' Brooke told her. ''Hi baby, is Tyler coming for dinner.'' Brooke asked Lucas as she met him downstairs.

''Yeah, Ethan saw him and pulled him into the living room.'' Lucas told her. ''Where are the girls.'' Lucas asked her.

''Sky is in her room doing her homework and Allie will be down in a minute.'' Brooke told him as she headed into the kitchen. ''Hi Tyler.'' Brooke said as she passed the living room and saw her daughter's 19 year old boyfriend sitting on the couch with her grandson.

''Hi.'' Tyler answered back. ''Where's Allie.'' Tyler asked.

''Upstairs in her room, why don't you take Ethan up to see her.'' Brooke told him.

-X-

''Hey baby.'' Tyler said as he walked into Allie's bedroom and saw her sitting on her bed.

''Hey.'' Allie said looking at him with a faint smile. ''Hi baby.'' Allie said as she lifted Ethan up on to her lap. ''Can we talk real quick before we're called for dinner.'' Allie asked him.

''Yeah, is everything okay.'' Tyler asked as he sat down beside her on the bed.

''Yeah.'' Allie said holding his hand and holding onto Ethan tighter. ''Here.'' Allie said handing Tyler the pregnancy test.

''Your dad is going to kill me.'' Tyler said when he looked down at what Allie had handed him.

''Are you mad.'' Allie asked him.

''No, it takes two.'' Tyler told her.

''I was so scared to tell you.'' Allie told him just as he stopped her there.

''If you were scared of me leaving you then you were being stupid. I'm here and you have Ethan, and I love Ethan and I'm not his dad, which means I will love our baby too. I'm not going anywhere.'' Tyler told her. ''Unless your dad kills me.'' Tyler told her making her laugh.

After dinner and after the younger ones had been put to bed, Skylar had went up to her room to finish her homework and Liam was in his room playing a video game before bed.

''Daddy, can I tell you something.'' Allie asked Lucas as she and Tyler walked into the living room.

''What's wrong princess.'' Lucas asked her.

''Promise me you won't kill Tyler or be mad at him.'' Allie asked him pulling Tyler behind him.

''Promise.'' Lucas told her.

''I was feeling sick this morning and when mom came home for work I realized I was late so mom got me a home pregnancy test and it was positive.'' Allie told him.

Lucas looked at Brooke before putting his head on the back of the couch and sighed. ''Ok, you know your mom and I will support any decisions you make.'' Lucas told her.

''I'm going to keep the baby.'' Allie told Lucas.

''Okay, me and you out on the porch now.'' Lucas told Tyler.

''You promised not to hurt him.'' Allie reminded Lucas.

''I know I did, I just want to talk to him.'' Lucas said kissing Allie on the side of the head and heading out the front door with Tyler behind him.

''I didn't mean for it to happen, Allie always made sure something was used and she is on the pill.'' Tyler told him.

''I'm not mad about the pregnancy.'' Lucas told him. ''I just want to talk to you about what you asked me last week.'' Lucas told him. ''I just want to make sure you are not going to ask her now because of the baby.'' He asked.

''I love your daughter and I love your grandson. I want her to be my wife.'' Tyler told him.
