"Spencer! What are you doing?" I said, startled. He stopped. "I'm sorry, Teddy. How can I be so stupid? What was I thinking? It's so confusing, all of this- with your pregnancy and Seth. I guess you want to be with him now, right?" I shook my head. "I have no idea either! Do you think it's not confusing for me? I'm the one that's pregnant! And besides that, two people are trying to hit on me with one of them being my ex-boyfriend who cheated on me and the other who was already in my pants and got me pregnant… I have no idea what to do! My feelings are so twisted around and a mess! And do you know the worst part? I'm regretting that I didn't let you kiss me."
"I'm not going to, Teddy. I'll wait until you sort out your feelings for me and Seth," Spencer said half-heartedly. "We should get out of the car now. I guess we can help each other with homework since we finished talking," he suggested. I said yes, and we went to his house to go study.
After the awkward time "studying" (I was way too preoccupied to care about the Pythagorean Theorem), I was ready to go home. I knew I had to tell my family about my pregnancy, but after today I was too tired.
I've been doing better with the crying spontaneously. I don't do it nearly as much as I did when I first learned I was pregnant. My mom now thinks I'm getting better, and I am. I have three people to support me and I'm not as scared as I was. That doesn't mean I was back to normal, though. None of PJ and Gabe's schemes made me mad, and I haven't been making my video diaries for a while now. I guess talking to my future teenage sister about being pregnant isn't really the best "this is what you should do to survive being a teen" type of thing.
Luckily, no one really bothered me at home today. Of course, that might be due to the fact that I barely saw them. I stayed in my room for most of the night, having the excuse of not feeling well (which was not entirely a lie). Ivy called me around eight o'clock and we talked for an hour. She kept on pestering me to tell my family. I kept telling her no. I finally went into a fitful sleep, waking up in cold sweat because of everything that happened these past few weeks.
The next day, at lunch, Ivy bombarded me. "Teddy, we need to talk."
"We've been talking for a long time now, Ivy," I told her.
"No, I mean with Seth and Spencer too," she corrected.
"What? How did you? Ivy!"
"Sorry Teddy. I decided we needed to talk to you about… Everything," she said.
Ivy led me to a lunch table where Spencer and Seth were waiting about a foot away from each other. They looked tense, and seemed like they were trying really hard not to kill each other. I sat right in between them, and they both smiled at me. Ivy sat across from me. "Okay. So now what?" I asked.
"Okay. So we all know that Seth knocked up Teddy. There was some drama but now Teddy has to do the hardest part of all this: she has to tell her parents," Ivy explained, "Okay so we should have one or two people go to help Teddy out. I, of course, am going because I'm her best friend. You two, on the other hand, are just making more problems. Which one of you is going?"
"I am!" Seth and Spencer said at the same time. "No! Not you! This is my baby!" said Seth. "I'm not the one who knocked her up! I'm going!" said Spencer. I threw my head in my hands. "Stop it!" I told both of them, "How about all of you go? It couldn't get any worse if another person goes. I'm going to get killed anyway." It was decided. I was going to tell my parents that I was pregnant. Today.
