AN-Just so everyone knows this story has nothing to do with me. I just thought this was a cool story because it's never been done before. My name is not Angela and I don't have I kid. I'm only 16. My best friends name is Trisha but that's because I couldn't think of another name. I am Mexican like Angela but there is a reason Angela is Mexican and that will come up later in the story. Now back to the story.

1 month had gone buy since the article. It definitely wasn't the last article. There were articles about Zac going for Angela because she looks like Vanessa but sluttier and soon kids Angela knew in high school were telling magazines over dramatized stories about her party life. Before Angela told her story to the world she made sure Zac knew all of it first. She had already told him a lot of it but wanted him to fully understand everything. She felt like Zac deserved to know everything that happened before the rest of the world. Angela told Corbin everything about 2 weeks after she told Zac. He definitely was mad when he heard what happened to one of his new good friends.

Angela decided that she was going to do an interview with People magazine and then she would do an interview with Diane Sawyer from Good Morning America. She got a lot of money from them because everyone wanted an interview with her.

People magazine interview-

Zac, Trisha, and Corbin, all went to Angela's interview. It was really hard to get there without the paparazzi but they went from house to house so they could lose them. They new this would be hard for her but they also new that she had to do this.

"Are you sure you don't want us to go in with you?" Trisha said looking at her friend sadly. She didn't want her best friend to have to go through this alone.

"I have to do this alone."

Trisha nodded and hugged her friend tightly. "I love you."

"I love you too."

"You'll do great." Corbin smiled at Angela and gave her a hug.

Zac came up to Angela and Trisha and Corbin walked away so they could give them some privacy. "If you don't want to go threw with this its ok. We will all understand."

"I have to do this Zac."

Zac smiled at her and hugged her tightly. "Have I told you how proud I am of you?"

"Once or twice." Angela said smiling. Zac kissed her and hugged her one last time before Angela walked into the building.

A girl about 30 came up to Angela as soon as she walked threw the elevator. "Hi I'm Christina, you must be Angela"

"Hi Christina, nice to meet you." Angela said shaking her hand nervously.

"I know you're nervous but it'll be fine. So first we are going to shoot some pictures of you for the cover and then we will do the interview. Does that sound good?"

"Sure." Angela took a deep breath and went into hair and make-up.

During the interview-

"There are some things I wanted to set straight about me. There have been some lies recently about who I am and I'm not happy about them at all." Angela took a deep breath and told her story. "I partied a lot during high school. My parents never really knew about it because I would lie to them to get out of the house. During the spring break of my sophomore year I went to a party with my boyfriend at the time, Jason. I had a couple of drinks but not enough to be drunk. I met this really nice guy named Jake. We talked for a while and I found out that he was gay. I have know problems with that so I hung out with him hoping to find another friend.He offered to get me another drink and I said yes, not knowing he was going to drug it. I passed out a little after I took the drink. The next thing I remember is waking up in a room I didn't know and Jake had his arm around me. I freaked out and told him he raped me but he said I wanted it the whole time. So I went home disgusted with myself thinking I was a slut. I never told anyone what happened because I didn't want my parents or my best friends hating me. A month later I found out I was pregnant so I finally told my parents and my best friends everything, even the part about me passing out as soon as I took the drink. My parents told me it wasn't my fault and that he raped me. We tried to press charges on Jake but he was long gone. The worst part about the whole thing was that the whole time Jake made me feel like I did something wrong, like it was my fault I slept with him. He took away my virginity and my pride. I have never felt so disgusting and violated before. I became depressed but my parents took me to a counselor and I got through it. I got my GED and now I'm trying to move forward and forget about all the bad things in my life."

"After all this you still decided to keep Carly?"

"I really felt like there was a reason I was suppose to have Carly. I'm not a fan of abortion so I new the whole time I was at least going to give birth to her but I decided to keep her. My parents really thought I should give her up for adoption but they new I was going to keep Carly know matter what so they helped me with everything."

"Where are your parents now?"

Angela looked down sadly. She really didn't want to cry in front of Christina. "They died 2 years ago in a plane crash. They really loved Carly though. I wish Carly could've gotten to know them."

"I'm so sorry. That must be so hard. How do you manage to pay for everything? I know you danced in a couple of music videos and in some musicals but I'm sure that's not enough for you and Carly."

"Well, my parents were really smart. They always had a plan if anything happened to them. They were only children and I'm an only child so I don't have any aunts or uncles or siblings and they lost touch with my grandparents, my grandparents weren't really good people anyway. So my parents wrote in their will that I would get all the money, house and car, things like that. Everything was already paid off so I didn't have to deal with that. I don't want to sound snobby or anything, but we were wealthier then most families. My mom was a heart surgeon and my dad was a successful lawyer. They didn't want the life my grandparents had so they worked hard all the time and tried to make names for themselves. After my parents died I was going to sell the house and move into an apartment but I couldn't leave the house I grew up in. I'm not saying I get by easily because I don't. I choreograph music videos and musicals and I teach dance lessons every now and then. I even had to sell stuff do get some extra money. We only have a TV so Calry can watch movies and I am only on my cell phone when I really need to be. I do have a lab top but I need that so I can find jobs to do."

"After all this you still stand so strong. How do manage all of this and now you have paparazzi fallowing you everywhere."

"It is really hard. I only want to be the best mom I can be but now I have people fallowing me everywhere and my kid is scared half to death asking me 'why is this happening?' or 'mommy make them go away.' It really hurts me to know my child is so scared and I can't do anything about it. If they really want a picture then they can stand far away and zoom. I'm pretty sure cameras now-a-days have zoom. I don't think they realize they are really hurting my little girl."

"Well Zac seemed pretty mad about how close they got to Carly too."

"Yeah, he's been really great, he loves Carly."

"So are you two together?"

"I don't really want to comment on that because it is one of the things in my personal life that I would like to keep private but I can say Zac is a really nice guy and he's been a good friend."

"So the rumors aren't true about Zac cheating on Vanessa?"

"I don't want to speak for him but no he didn't. Zac would never do that kind of thing. He is a very strong believer that women should be treated with respect"

"How do you feel about everyone making you out to be the villain? They have said some really rude things about you."

"I'm not going to say it didn't hurt because it did, a lot. They made me seem like a bad mom when really, I am trying so hard to be the kind of mom my mom was. I had great parents and I want Carly to grow up with that. But I knew I had to get through it and I had to keep telling myself that they were just lies and soon everyone was going to learn the truth. What I was really scared about was my daughter reading it someday and thinking bad about me or not being proud of me. I know I've done some bad things in my life and I know I'm not the perfect role model but I've learned from every single one of my mistakes. I just want my daughter to be proud of me. I don't know what I would do if she thought I was a bad mom." Silent tears started running down Angela's face when she said this. This was her worst fear and now the world was going to know. "But I've had a lot of help from my friends."

"Was Trisha a big help?"

"Oh yeah. She helped me threw everything. So did my other best friend Josh. They both love Carly, she's like their niece."

"Did Trisha and Josh party a lot with you in high school?"

"Know not really. They never approved of my partying but I wouldn't listen to them. They finally told my parents because they got worried about me. My parents were upset that I betrayed their trust but if it weren't for them something worse could've happened to me. I am so grateful for them."

"What about Trisha and Corbin, what's happening with them?"

"That's something that if they want to talk about they can but I'm not going to. I can say that Corbin has become one of my good friends. Zac, Corbin, Trisha, and I all get along great."

"If you could say one thing to the world what would you say?"

"I would like to say stop judging me. I know what I did while I was young was wrong but I learned from my mistakes. I went through high school having people judge me or calling me a slut and I don't need it now. I have gone through so much and with people trying to push me down every single step of the way. And for all the girls that are going threw what I went threw I want to tell them to Stand Strong. One of the main reasons I am telling my stories is because I want other teens to see that you can get through it and become a better person. That's why I am starting a website called StandStrong (doesnt exist) This website is for every girl who has been raped and any pregnant teens or teen mothers. I hate that these girls are being put down while they're going threw one of the toughest things they will ever go threw in life and they don't have any where to go. So this website will have counseling and group help programs. They can read stories about other girls who have gone threw what they are going threw and maybe learn. They will also be able to e-mail me whenever. All I want to do is help these girls in any way possible."

"I think you are so strong even though you have been through so much so I want to say I definitely look up to you." Christina shook Angela's hand.

"Thank you so much."

After Angela got all her stuff she headed outside. The paparazzi already found out where she was. Zac came up to her and helped her get to the car. Trisha and Corbin were in the backseat waiting for her. They drove away and went to Angela's house. She looked outside the window as they drove home. She didn't know how it was going to be now that every one was going to know her secret but knowing she could help other girls made the troubling thought more bearable. A tear ran down her face. She wished her parents could be here but she knew they were looking after her all the time.
