CLARE POV
"Is she pregnant?" Cece and Bullfrog said at the same time. "No! Well, not anymore..." Eli slid his arm around me and rubbed my shoulder. My eyes watered a little; my hands were all of a sudden really interesting.
They looked confused, I spoke up, "A couple of months ago, Eli and I got...intimate. The condom apparently broke with out our knowing. About 2 or 3 weeks later I kept getting really sick and throwing up and Eli got worried so he took me to the doctor." I looked up and smiled at Eli, "The doctor confirmed I was pregnant.

"The same thing happened to the Bullfrog and I, when we were about your age too..." She pulled away. I stared at her with wide eyes and she shook her head. "Yep, it is devastating, but I learned to move on from it, to forgive and forget, you should to." I nodded knowing exactly what I was going to say to Jenna when I found her...
