Chapter 3.

xxxx.

Exactly 3 months and 11 days later…

Adrian lee abruptly awoke to the sound of her louder the average alarm clock. She rubbed her eyes and jumped out of bed to only run to the bathroom holding her hand over her mouth with the hopes of making it to the bathroom in time. She bent over the toilet and did the exact same thing she had been doing for over a month now. After enduring that process, she slumped again the wall beside the toilet and laid down on the cold tiles remembering that day where she found out the stunning truth.

Flashback:

Adrian waited and waited holding her pregnancy test until her result showed up on the screen.

Positive.

Her heart sunk in her chest and for a moment well actually a few moments, she was in udder shock. She never thought in a million years she would ever become a teen mother and now that day had come. Reality hit her and she burst out into tears. She slumped down on the floor and laid down beside the toilet.

She stayed like that for almost two hours until her mom and dad came home. She jumped up from the floor and rushed to her room and shut the door, crawled into bed and hid under the covers to cry herself to sleep once again.

..

Remembering that day wasn't as hard as remembering the time where she finally told her parents.

Flashback: Two months ago.

Adrian had recently found out she was pregnant. Actually she found out exactly 27 days ago.

Adrian had the worst 27 days of her life.

Everything came crashing down and the worst part was trying to keep it a secret. Her mom questioned if she should get professional help or seek out someone for Adrian to talk to after each time her lectures failed to reach Adrian's mind. It was like it went in one ear and out the other. It was starting to get on Adrian's mothers nerves. She didn't understand how someone could be mad at themselves all this time and keep it bottled up, not to mention become depressed.

After the long lectures, Adrian gave up on keeping it a secret any longer. She couldn't keep something like from her mother this big and she knew a doctors appointment was in order. Adrian remembered the talk between her, her mother and her father clear as day.

"Mom and dad, I'm pregnant." Adrian saw her parents eyes widen and concern and unpleasant looks spread across their faces.

"Y-y-you're what!" Reuben couldn't help but raise his voice

"Adrian Lee, if this is a joke this is not funny and if this is for real we need to have a serious chat right now."

Adrian couldn't fight back the tears that started trickling from her eyes.

"I'm serious. It's Ben's mom.. It's Ben's baby!"

Adrian's mother finally understood the real reason why Adrian had been acting the way she was acting. She felt guilty, unimpressed and totally shocked about the situation.

Guilty because she should have been more careful about her daughter being sexually active with boys and put her foot down.

Unimpressed because Adrian shouldn't have been so foolish and shocked because she never thought she would ever hear those words out of her daughters mouth until she was graduated collage and have a stable job with a loving husband, not to mention her own house.

Adrian was now crying hysterically apologizing. Reuben got up off the couch and walked away while Cindy stayed frozen in her place. All Cindy could think of was..

"You didn't use protection Adrian! Are you kidding me! I thought you were on birth control!" Adrian got up off the chair.

"I was on brith control mom! I stopped taking them frequently because Ricky and I stopped having sex for a while! I have no clue why I didn't use protection! It was stupid but what's done is done and nothing can change that. I obviously was so mad I forgot about the obvious!" Adrian spat. She felt guilty after yelling at her mother like that but there was no turning back now.

Her life was taking a turn whether she liked it or not.

…..

Adrian got up off the bathroom floor to drag herself downstairs. She saw her parents in the kitchen making breakfast for the two of them. They still didn't get over the fact she was pregnant and quite frankly, Adrian felt hurt her parents weren't standing behind her.

Her parents usually let her now decide whether or not she is going to school because they didn't exactly want their daughter throwing up in the hallways, not to mention endure the rumours.

Adrian grabbed a glass from the counter and filled it up with water; she drank slowly and ran upstairs. For the rest of the day she slept on and off mainly because she felt so sick.

In the evening, Adrian finally decided it was time to go downstairs and watch television with her parents to make them remember it was their same little girl. She walked down the stairs and casually sat on the couch. She felt fidgety in the awkward kind of way so she decided to go sit at the kitchen table. She walked in the kitchen to only find open curtains with a bright light shining through and seeing Amy and Ricky playing with John in the living room of Amy's house. Adrian remembered the day Amy came back and she told him she was pregnant.

Flashback:

Adrian saw Ricky Underwood the first time since she told him she cheated on him. Seeing him stand their in the halls talking to Amy made me her feel bad, but she noticed she no longer had any desire to be with him at all. She didn't want to be with anybody and being away from Ricky for so long made her realize she didn't exactly need him by her side to continue on with life.

Life was going on whether or not he was around and she finally realized that after almost a month of worrying about him. He noticed her starring at him and she walked over to him without worry. She would tell him she will always love him but they could no longer be together and that she was pregnant.

Ricky's eyes widen watching her walk over to him wearing jeans and a baggy sweater. He had never seen her ever dress that way before and it was kind of a turn off. He had also realized his feelings for her weren't as deep as her feelings for him. He couldn't lead her on, it would hurt her too much. They walked to met each other half way when Ricky turned around and touched Amy on the shoulder to say good bye.

They finally reached each other and he couldn't help but noticed Adrian looked different.

Something about her had changed and he knew it was going to affect him in some way.

"Ricky, it's over. I'm so sorry but I just don't feel the same way after what happened. My life is changing and I want to tell you but somewhere more…private." Adrian's face was quite serious so he knew he couldn't joke around. He was also hurt their first words to each other were this.

"No Adrian, I'm ending it. YOU cheated on ME. So I can end it. I don't feel the same about YOU, especially after what happened. I realized I missed Amy a lot more then I should have so me and her worked things out and we are actually giving us a shot. She dated Jimmy for a bit and acted like she didn't care I was gone but she really did. It just hurt so she blocked it from her mind. So guess what Adrian, I'm not going to wait around for you to apologize and get back together just for you to cheat on me again. You never trusted me, so what is it Adrian that you want to talk about to me that is so private!" Adrian never felt so angry in her life. She made Ricky most likely hate her and she was so mad she regretfully yelled the words that changed everyone's perspective on her.

"I'M PREGNANT RICKY! WITH BEN'S CHILD!" After that sentence Adrian regretted everything about it.

Not because that was the way the whole school found out, or the way Ricky found out but because that was the way Ben found out.
