Julie walked in the front door arms weighed down by numerous shopping bags, courtesy of Ben. For the past week he had been away on a mission so to make it up to her he had taken her shopping and now she was exhausted. Dropping her bags she headed to the kitchen, going into the fridge she fished out one of the many jars of pickles that now inhabited it. She used to really hate pickles (especially after the incident with Ben and his alien Big Chill) but over the past 3 weeks she had grown to have a craving for the pickled snack, she walked over to the mahogany cupboard by the small windows and grabbed a half eaten jar of peanut butter and proceeded to dunk her pickle in it and eat it, she continued to this until both the jar of pickles and peanut butter was empty, grunting to herself she whipped out her slim pink phone and fired a text off to Ben asking if he could pick up some more peanut butter on the way home from Mr Smoothy's. They had started living together in a two bedroom apartment after her parents had found out that she would spend most of her night at Ben's while getting Gwen to cover for her and so instead of keep lying to her parents they had allowed her to move in with Ben.

Walking into their large lounge she plopped herself on the large brown leather couch that was situated by the back wall, looking through the clothes that Ben had brought for he she mumbled to herself for today she had gone up a whole dress size and had had snapped at a store assistant who had snickered at her when she had to look through the bigger dresses, Ben was forced to drag her out of the shop before she had strangled the sales assistant with her own bare hands. Her tempter had been snapping a lot lately she had tore into Kevin when he had brought her some peanut butter Because Ben was busy, when she had realised that he had got the wrong one she had threatened to cut of his balls with a rusty knife and force them down his throat. He had been so scared he had tried to run out but instead he managed to knock himself out on the door frame. She had felt bad afterwards and offered to cook him a meal but he refused saying he had to be home, but she knew that he was afraid her. To be truthful she would be too if someone threatens to mutilate her and make her eat it.

Julie sighed as she turned on their 36" LCD screen TV, flicking through the channels she finally settled on watching Teen Mom. She always thought that these people were really stupid to get themselves in that situation. But she really wasn't paying attention. That was until she heard the symtoms that one of the girls were describing about their pregnancy, Weight gain, weird cravings, mood swings and for a couple of mornings she had thrown up but she put it down to all the weird stuff she was eating.

Julie's eyes widened as all the pieces clicked together in her brain, the symtoms they had started all after that night three weeks ago! how had she missed it? Grabbing her purse and her keys she sprinted out the front door and onto her scooter.

Her tyres squealed as she skidded to a stop out the town pharmacy, running inside she quickly made her way to the right isle, snatching up a pregnancy test and headed to the cashier who gave her a funny look as she shakily handed over a couple of crumpled notes, dashing out the store she got on her scooter and quickly made her way home.

The three minutes she had to wait to find the answer were agonisingly slow but when the timer she rushed back to the bathroom picking up the test she felt as through her heart had been torn out of her chest, she almost felt like that little pink plus sign was laughing at her. Suddenly her body couldn't support her anymore and she crumpled to her floor tears streaming from her hazel eyes, her body shaking as sobs racked her body. How had a night that had made her feel on top of the world and had brought her and Ben closer than they could ever imagine turn out so wrong. She tucked her knees tightly and wrapped her fragile arms around them tears still refusing to stop.

And that how Ben found her when he came home, curled up on the bathroom floor sobbing to herself. He slowly walked over to her crouching down by the side of her he brushed some strands of midnight black hair that had fallen across her face "Julie was wrong?" but instead of responding she thrust the pregnancy test into his hand and continuted sobbing. Lifting it p he realised what it was and his eyes widened the size of diner plates "you mean your" Julie looked up from the position she was in on the floor her face red and blotchy and her eyes puffy from all the crying "Yes Ben im pregnant"

After Ben had managed to pry Julie away from the bathroom and onto the couch they sat in silence neither of them wanting to break it. They were waiting for Kevin and Gwen to arrive after Ben had called them earlier telling them that it was important. The silence was soon broken by the loud sound of the doorbell Ben got up and let them in and they walked into the livingroom worry etched on their features. Ben sat back down next to Julie and grasped her hand and gave her a ressuring smile. Kevin was the first to break the akward silence that one again filled the room "So what is it you wanted to tell us Tennyson we dont have all day" Ben swallowed the hard lump that had formed in his throat "Julies pregnant" Julie looked between the two teens infront of her gauging the reactions. Kevin just stood there his eyes wide with shock and his mouth slowly agape, Gwen's was almost the same but within in second it turned into full out rage directed towards them "What the hell were you two thinking!" she screamed her green eyes glaring daggers at the two "How could you be so stupid your 18 for christ sakes! how are you going to look after a child when you still act like one yourself! especially you Ben!" she poked him hard in the chest and then turned her narrowed gaze towards Julie "and you i thought you were better than this but your no better than those girls you find on the TV!"

Julie couldn't take the verbal abuse from Gwen anymore and rushed out the room hazel eyes once again leaking tears, she ran upstairs and hid herself in the master bedroom, she leant againt the door tears refusing to stop, she wondered why Gwen was acting like this, Gwen always said she be there for her no matter what, so why was ahe changing her mind now?

Meanwhile downstairs that had been the last straw for Ben. He stood up to his full height and towered over Gwen his normally calm emerald eyes now burning with anger, his blood boiling under his skin "Gwen! What the hell do you think your playing at upseting Julie like that?" if the phrase 'looks could kill' was true Gwe would have burst into flames right there and then "Do you think either of us wanted this? to have to raise a child at the age of 18? We never wanted this to happen but now it has you are going to have to live with it! You should apologize to Julie for what you said because no way is she like those bimbo's on TV! she is strong sensitive and smart beyond her years! she shouldn't be judged by the one mistake she has made, especially not by you of all people!"

Kevin who had been quietly stood in shock now left the room and headed upstairs to make sure Julie was ok. stopping outside the master bedroom he heard muffled sobs coming from the otherside of the door, gently opening it he poked his head through and found a distressed Julie sobbing on the bed, he hated to see her so upset when she was normally so strong and within a blink of an eye was beside he pulling her into a brotherly hug "shh Jules its OK everythings going to be fine" she looked up her normally bright eyes were dull and red from all the crying "B-but what a-a-bout Gwen?" Her voice cracking along with her emotions, he rubbed soothing shapes on her back to try and calm her down "ignore her Jules she doesn't know what she is talking about you nothing like those Idiotic girls on TV your smart, funny sensitive. You and Ben are going to be awesome parents. And we are going to help you through this okay and Gwen will come around evetually when she realises what a bitch she has been" she nuzzled her head into his warm chest and he faintly heard a muffled "thank you" come from her. After about 5 mintutes she had fallen asleep, gently laying her down on the bed he kissed her forehead and mumbled "sleep well Jules" before heading back down stairs.

Kevin stormed into the lounge anger pulsing through his veins, he found the two cousins glaring at each other, angry green boaring into angry green, he was shocked at how angry Ben looked at Gwen, the only other time he had ever seen him this angry was when Dorkstar had decided to kidnapp Julie and then had the gal to as he put it 'smack some sense into her'. He really couldn't blame Ben for being angry at her, he too was miffed at the redhead. "Gwen why on earth did you snap at Julie like that?" at the mention of her name the redhead snapped her head round in the direction of Kevin, green eyes still smoldering with anger "You're supposed to be her best friend Gwen! Do you know how much you have upset her? she bacically just cried herself to sleep in my arms! How would you like it if she turned her back on you when you really needed her to comfot you and tell you that everything is going to be ok!" He saw a flash of guilt in her eyes but they were soon back to angry she opened her mouth to reply but instead of saying anything she just stormed out the house slamming the door as she left.

Kevin let out the breath he didn't know he was holding in, he shot Ben a sypathetic look before shuffling out the door after the angry girl. Ben walked to the master bedroom and lent againt the door frame, he loved watching her sleep she was so beautiful. He relished the time he could spend with her, He just hoped when the time comes that he can be there for her and their child.
