"You can do this Amy," trying to sound all brave and confident as they sat in the school parking lot. Amy looked into his eyes and saw concern in his eyes also. Of course, everyone knows him and Karma broke up, but they're not sure if she told anyone the reason why. "I'll be with you when you go in and when you leave."

"But what about during classes?" she asked. "I have at least two classes with Karma and I don't think I could be able being in the same room as her or anyone that might be on her side."

He took a moment to say something, "Ignore them, it's not that they can do anything to you in class except give you looks. Just do your usual stuff, you know don't give a fuck and just pay attention to the lesson."

She glared at him, "Nice, real nice."

He smiled and took her hand to his face and gently kissed it, "It's what I like about you, though," he said and Amy blushed. "The most we'll have to deal is at lunch and like before, just ignore everyone."

"I hope you're right," she said. "I mean, how bad it can be, right?" she tries to convince herself. "Teenage pregnancy is so normal, right? Especially with your best friend's boyfriend right?" she turns it into a sarcasm.

"Ex-boyfriend," he said. "You have me with you."

She lowered her head a little, wonder how long it would last between them. She didn't want to feel doubtful and start thinking of how he would realize how much work this was and how Amy was no 'Karma'.

She felt his hand go under her chin and lift her head up, "Hey, what's wrong?"

She shook her head and pushed her hair behind her ear, "Nothing, just tired. I've been having trouble sleeping lately." she lied.

"Okay," he said. He brought his wrist up and looked at his watch. "We should go in now, though. Class will be starting in five minutes."

She sigh and nodded. They got out of the car and she wrapped herself in her cardigan. People were confused as they say her walked out of the same car and they both walked together to the school entrance.

Amy feels uncomfortable with people watching her. The school probably see her bump over the green t-shirt she's wearing. It was the first time, she go out without wearing her hoodie or her oversized shirts.

It was no point trying to hide it now anyways and she was getting tired of wearing oversized clothes. Liam thought she looks nice with her green t-shirt, white cardigan and dark skinnies with her hair down.

When they got to the hallway, people around looked at them with either confusion, shaking their heads or snobby looks. Mostly people who are friends with Karma but Karma was nowhere to be found. People around already started the rumors as Amy went over to her locker and wanted to go in there and hide forever. She can hear people whispering 'pregnant', 'how could she?', 'fake', 'poor Karma'.

Liam leaned against the free locker next to her and leaned down to her, "See, you didn't faint or anything. That's a good sign."

She frowned at him, "Be more supportive, Liam." she said with sad eyes and she could hear people coughing 'slut' as they walked passed. She didn't care what people were saying but it hurt her a little.

"Right," he said. "I forgot to mention that Robin wants to ask you to stay for dinner, tonight. She was hoping that maybe my parents are home and we can break the news."

She groaned, "I can't I promise to help my mom clean the house and Lauren will be pissed if she had to do it alone with her. Besides, I'm not ready for another drama."

"Okay, I better get going to my locker now before I get late to class and get a detention."

She frowned, not wanting him to leave her alone here with everyone still watching her. But she nodded, "Okay."

He leaned down to kiss her and Amy wasn't a fan of public display. Before he knows it, Amy stopped him. Her cheeks blushed as she heard more whispers, "I'm sorry. I'll see you at lunch then," he said before leaving.

Damn Liam, she thought as people are still whispering.

She grabbed all the books she needs, she closed her locker and turns around. And as she just had an idea of hiding in her locker when everyone in the hallway was looking at her. A knot formed in her throat, but she kept her head high and walked to class.

Amy did not think that today would be as awkward as she thought. Not only the students looked at her but also did the teachers. Not one of them talked to her or any teachers pick on her. And luckily, Karma was nowhere to be seen, maybe she decided to skip school today.


At lunch, Amy and Liam sat together along with Shane. Shane tries so hard not to stare at her bump.

"So Amy, I did not ask you earlier but how long are you?" he asked

"She's around 18 weeks," Liam replied.

"Do you think it's a boy or a girl?" Shane asks.

Amy shrugged. "I don't know," she replied. "I never thought about it."

"I'm hoping it's a boy," Liam said.

She looked at him surprised, she thought maybe someone like Liam wanted a girl. He looked uncomfortable, "O- or a girl, it doesn't matter either." he said. Amy guessed he thought that she was mad, but she wasn't.

"A boy would be great, though, and I wouldn't be disappointed if it's a girl. Just hope she won't be like her auntie Lauren." Shane said and he hit Liam's arm. "You'll be a great father Liam."

Liam smiled, "Thanks, man."


After school, Liam took Amy to his house before sending her home. Amy and Liam laid on his bed, just listen to music. Amy did not want to go home just yet, wanting to spend time with Liam. Their hands entwined together as they just took in each other warmth's as they laid down.

"I don't want to go home," she said, sighing.

"Then stay," he said.

"I can't. Lauren will kill me. I hate cleaning," they both chuckled. "I guess I should get used to it since I'll always have to clean up once the baby here," she said.

"I'll help," he said and Amy rolled her eyes. "Hey, I can help clean a few things here and there."

She chuckled, "you better not just say things and not actually doing it."

Liam surprised her by being on top of her and keep both of her hands on the bed. "You think, I can't do it?" he smirked.

Amy chuckled "Of course not," she said and she started giggling when Liam started to lean his face to her, "Liam stop."

"Not until you beg." he said.

"Never," she giggled.

Liam then started kissing her neck and she feels ticklish and she couldn't stop laughing. "Okay Liam stop, stop, I beg you," she said and he stopped and she took a few deep breaths before propping herself up on her elbows, "you're evil."

"Well, I'm sure the baby thinks I'm awesome," he said.

"You know that baby can hear your voice right?" she said and he looked surprised.

"Really?" he asked.

"Well yeah, at least, my voice for sure but my mom did mention that the baby can hear music if I play them," she said. "That's why she likes to move when I play music in the shower."

"Hmmm, shower," he said almost purring like and she watches as his eyes fell to her chest where her boobs are getting a little bigger and she hits his chest and he chuckled, "I'm playing! It's not that you can have sex when you're pregnant."

"Who says pregnant women can't have sex?" Amy accidentally slipped the question.

"So you can?" he asks and she blushed.

"Yeah," she said awkwardly since they never brought up about sex again before.

"Well, whenever you're comfortable and ready, we can if you want." he said.

She couldn't help wonder if she wants to have sex again. It sucks to be pregnant when you only had sex once. And being pregnant really did not help her hormones where she feels horny a lot more often.

She couldn't stop thinking when is the last time Liam and Karma had sex. It made her frown thinking how much he could have enjoyed it with her and Amy isn't even close to being experience as Karma.

"What's wrong? Is it something that I said?" he asked and she shooked her head, looking down at her stomach. "Then tell me, and don't say its nothing, I know there's something."

She hesitated before taking a deep breath, "When is the last time you and Karma had sex?"

"What?" he questioned and her face reddens, not wanting to ask again. "The day before you took the tests," he said and she looked at him confused. "Yeah right after I found out you were pregnant. We did try to - But I couldn't get it up. I was freaked out. I was freaking out about getting her pregnant too then since I thought if it could happen to you, it could happen to her."

She raised an eyebrow at him, "Are you for real?" she asked.

"Ask her if you want," he said. "And do you know how hard it is to not have sex for almost three months? For a guy at least."

She then laid back down. She hesitated, before asking, "Well... Do you want to soon?"

He looked confused for a moment before realizing she was asking and his eyes widen, "Um, well like I said, whenever you're ready again."

Wow, this is awkward, she thought.

"And I really hope we're sober this time," he said, making them both chuckled.

"Yeah, I barely even remember my first time," she said.

He leaned down and kiss her, his stomach pressed against her bump.

Suddenly something vibrated and he jumped off her, "Was that the baby?"

She chuckled, "Of course not, that was my phone." she said, reaching into her pocket and took her phone out, getting a text from Lauren asking when she is coming home, she doesn't want to stick with her mom alone.

"I need to get back home," Amy said. "Lauren is already pissed."

"Okay sure, let me get the keys," he said.


"Thanks for sending me back," she said.

"No biggie," he said. "I think it's like my job to take care of you now that you're with my kid," he said awkwardly.

"Oh okay," Amy replied awkwardly as well.

They both was about to kiss when Lauren knock on the car's window. "Hello, I hate to break your moment there. But you need to get out and help me!"

Amy sigh and give a quick peck on his lips and got out, "Bye."


Well, what do you want the baby to be? A boy or a girl?
