"K.C put your plate in the sink." His mother said as he was getting up to leave the dinner table.

"Sorry mom." K.C said. Maybe his mom nagged him a little, but he was still thankful that she was back and clean.

"So…" His mother began. K.C finished clearing his dishes and then turned to look at her.

"Yeah?" He asked.

"So you and Jenna are back together now." She continued.

K.C looked down at his hands. "Yeah we are. Mom, I know what you're gonna say-.." He began but his mother cut him off.

"Then what am I going to say?" She asked. He sighed.

"You were gonna say that this means I'm accepting the responsibility of being a dad, and I know that."

His mother nodded. "Yup, and I also wanted to say that it's gonna be just as hard on Jenna as it is you if not harder, so don't get upset with her when things get tough."

"I know mom, I learned my lesson. I won't leave Jenna again."

His mom smiled. "Good. I'm proud of you baby boy." She pulled her son into a hug and K.C grinned.

"Thanks mom."

"I need to run out to the store, you be good!" She said, and K.C waved goodbye.

Once she was gone he went to his bedroom and slumped onto his computer chair.

I'm gonna be a dad. He thought.

He was scared as fuck. He wanted to be a good dad, and he wanted to help Jenna, but he didn't want it to take over his life. He knew it would though, and he hated the feeling that gave him. After all, he was just a teenager.

This is all my fucking fault.

In his midst of rage he made that his facebook status, and then collapsed onto his bed, suddenly tired.

It was a few minutes later that he heard his phone beep.

He expected it to be Jenna, or maybe Drew, but he was shocked when he saw that he'd received a text message from Clare.

"Hey…you okay? I saw what you posted on facebook."

Clare was always so considerate, even after all K.C had done to her. He replied, grateful that she cared even though it was a little awkward talking to your ex girlfriend.

"Yeah…I'm just worried about the baby." He typed.

Clare responded a few minutes later.

"I bet you are. But you're doing the right thing to stick with Jenna."

"I know", K.C texted back.

Clare didn't respond and he began to feel lonely. He made a split decision and called her.

"Hello?" She answered, slightly confused.

"Hey Clare. Look, I need to tell you something."

"Um…okay, what?"

K.C took a deep breath. "It was wrong of me to break up with you for Jenna. I feel really bad about it. I mean, I love Jenna and I want to be with her, but it was still wrong what I did. I just wanted to apologize."

It was a few moments before Clare finally responded.

"Apology accepted K.C." She whispered. "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Oh and uh…Eli's a good guy." K.C stated kind of awkwardly.

Clare giggled. "I know. And I'm not sure, but I don't think he dislikes you either." She said.

K.C smirked at this. "Yeah well…I've gotta go finish some homework. See you around."

"See you K.C."

They hung up.

Clare put her phone down, slightly shocked that K.C had called her. And apologized of all things. That really wasn't like him at all.

Even so, Clare was happy he called. She signed onto twitter to check her DMs. There was one waiting from Jenna.

Jenna and Clare had started to become friends again, and Clare was thankful for that.

The day she'd invited Alli over to get ready for the dance she'd invited Jenna too because she didn't want to appear rude.

Jenna accepted her invitation and then pulled her aside.

"Listen Clare, thank you for inviting me. After stealing your boyfriend I in no way expected you to even wanna be around me."

"It's okay Jenna. I mean, that's past. And I have…someone else now." Clare had replied.

"Still. I'm sorry for all the crap I've caused you. I really am Clare Bear." She patted Clare on the arm and smiled.

Jenna could be so emotional that it was just too hard to watch her be contrite. Clare forgave her.

They'd talked a little since then, Jenna had confided in Clare about worries about the baby.

Clare had comforted her and said she would be available to help, and that her church had a nursery that Jenna could probably leave the baby at while she was in school.

Jenna really wasn't all that bad deep down, and Clare was glad they were friends again.

"Hey Clare Bear, what's up?" Was Jenna's DM.

"Nothing interesting lol. You?" She replied.

"Oh c'mon, with that boy friend of yours something interesting must be going on. ;)" Jenna said, and Clare could almost hear her mischievous tone in the message. Jenna loved to talk about boys.

"Well actually, Eli had a chat with K.C today." Clare replied, remembering what Eli had told her about how they met in detention. It was actually rather surprising to Clare that they'd gotten along so well; it amused her.

"Really? :O Was it a friendly chat or…" Jenna trailed off.

"It was friendly lol. They met in detention today and Eli told me that they actually sort of hit it off." Clare replied.

"Huh… hmm ;)" Was all Jenna said in response.

"Yes?" Clare asked, curious.

"Let's double date! :D"
