Chapter 7

Jay's POV

Me and Alex have - shockingly - arrived at a conclusion about the baby that is rather adult of us. I must say I am impressed even. I figure the next step is telling her mom she's pregnant. Alex, on the other hand, does not.

"Lex, it might not even be that bad. What's the worst that could happen, seriously?"

She shot me a look as I realized what I was saying. "One word: Chris."

"Lexi, maybe this could be a blessing in disguise. Come on, think about it. There are so many good things that could come out of this. If you move in with me, we can live together and be a proper little family. Me, you and little junior in there. You get to escape Chris and your mom's bullshit, we get to spend more time together and everyone wins."

"Bills? Groceries, baby stuff, sleepless nights…"

"OK, so we don't move in together." I couldn't help showing my disappointment. "You're still gonna have to tell her."

"She'll begin to notice soon…"

"And how the hell d'ya think they're gonna react when they find out you didn't tell them straight away?" I asked, and Alex backed down as she realized I'd just totally ruined her master plan.

"I could wait until I've had the baby, and then send it round there with a note and some chocolate. Or a bottle of vodka, may be more suited."

"Lex, I love you, but shut the fuck up!"

"Jay, this could be the answer to our problem. I mean come on, who can get mad at a baby?"

"Alex you have to tell her now." I ordered, ignoring the last part.

"Can't you tell her? I mean you are the one that did this to me. So technically, you should be telling her not me." Alex said smartly. It was like she was enjoying this.

"Alex, would you shut up?! I'm not going to tell her, the frickin' baby isn't going to tell her, you are. But I'll be by your side the whole time."

Another fifteen minutes of us arguing and I finally won. Alex is dawdling behind me, as I stride on ahead. I am not feeling in the least bit nervous. I don't know why though…

As we approached, the house looked empty. As we got closer, the front door opened with just a slight touch on the warped wood.

"Hmm, looks like my mom isn't home… lets go." Alex said as she walked in the door and turned right around to leave the way she'd just come.

"Alex." I grabbed her arm before she could cross the threshold.

"Alex..." Her mom greeted her coldly, with not so much as a smile. "Nice of you to show your face every once in a while round here. I see you have Jason with you." She added on giving me an evil look. Emily was sober for once. The thing is, when her mom is sober she absolutely hates me, but with drink she is happy to see me and completely loves me.

"Ummm, yeah he is my boyfriend, what of it?" I elbowed my girlfriend in the ribs to get her back on track. "Uh yeah… Well mom there is something that I…we need to tell you."

"Oh? And what would that be?"

"I.. we… um." Alex was stalling. She looked up at me and suddenly I lost all my nerve. I wasn't surprised in the slightest that she was dreading doing this. I was suddenly very aware of my manhood, and decided I was probably going to lose it.

"Me and Jay… we're having a baby." Alex whispered, dropping her gaze to the floor. Yep, I think I was just sick in my mouth a little bit.

"You're what?!" Emily exploded. To say she was angry would be the understatement of the year. If we were in a cartoon there would be steam flowing outta her ears, and her face would be bright red.

Alex's POV

"What the fuck?!" I flipped instantly. "You say my choice in men is bad? Take a look at yourself mom! You can't keep a guy for more than a few months tops, and the ones you do chose beat the shit outta you and wreck the house! You meet a guy and you think he's The One, then you get burned and there goes another one! Come on Jay lets go." I grabbed Jay's arm and we left my apartment. I stayed quiet until we got outta my apartment.

"Why the hell did you make me do that?" I yelled when we left the door that lead into the apartment building.

"Well for one thing she is your mother and just because that seemed painful, she had to know. Plus now you can stay at my house for a few days." Jay said, bumping my side and giving one of his signature smiles.

"Fine I will stay at your house for one night, but I don't wanna leave her home alone with him for longer than a day. I know I hate her and all but I don't want her to be with him without me being there."

"So... shall we go and share our good news with the guys? And Holly." Jay asked as we got into his car.

"Oh yeah we haven't told them yet have we. Yeah I guess we can go tell them." I said and Jay turned the car around and headed to the ravine where we were predictably guaranteed to find all of our friends.

Holly's POV

We are all hanging around the ravine, and this is how we have been for hours. No one is really saying anything. Actually we are waiting for Alex and Jay to come to the ravine. A few hours ago Jay told us that him and Alex were going to his house to discus things with the baby. That was hours ago, and I'm getting bored. Hopefully they will come soon, because if I have to sit in this silence for an hour longer I will die!

"Hey you guys." Jay's voice took me outta my thoughts.

"Hey. Did you guys finally decide it? Have you decided if you will keep the baby?" Luke asked over excited.

"Yeah we have and that's what we came here to tell you."

"We would have gotten here sooner if it wasn't for someone." Alex mumbled under her breathe. Jay hit her side with his elbow, and continued talking.

"We decided that we are going to keep the baby." After Jay said that everyone seemed happier and were congratulating them.

"So, Alex have you told your mom yet?" Marcus asked.

"Yeah that's actually were we came from." Alex said shooting Jay and evil glare.

"How did she take it?" Jessie was next to ask.

"Not so well." Jay informed us. "Words were harshly exchanged, put it that way." Jay added on.

Everyone had automatically grabbed a beer, and the smokers among the group had began lighting up cancer sticks. I saw Alex looking longingly at the drink in Jay's hand as we both realized and remembered it would be a while until she was allowed to have any fun again.

Luke's POV

Weirdly enough, us finding out Jay and Alex were keeping the baby put everyone in a good mood. Before they got here, we were all just sat around in awkward silence, but when Alex and Jay got here, it gave us something to talk about. I let the others sit down and got us all a beer, and I almost forgot that Alex couldn't drink now.

"Oh no!" Alex shouted out. Everyone that was standing in ear shoot of us turned to look at her. She gave them a look and they all turned back to whatever they were talking about.

"What?" Jay asked.

"I just realized something. I wont be able to have beer in like 9 months!" Alex yelled out. She has to really practice on not yelling so loud. That's how people find things out, and start rumors.

"Actually, Alex, it will be more than 9 month because you aren't supposed to drink after you have the baby." Jessie told her.

"Are you serious? I can't drink or smoke anything! So the next time that I can drink something wont be until next year!" She yelled even louder than the last time.
