''I want you to get a abortion''. Drew said to Clare as they sat on the Degrassi steps looking out on every one around them, two Tenner having a big fight, Maya Matlin was yelling at her ex boyfriend it had something to do with Tristan and neither of them knew what it was about nor cared. Clare's mouth dropped open and she glared at him and walked away. Drew followed her still trying to talk to her as she walked home. ''Clare I don't want this baby, to ruin both our lives''.
''its not the baby's fault Drew!'' she snapped as she walked as fast as she could, she had to talk to Jenna, of coarse she'd tell Alli, but Jenna would understand more ''Its ours!'' Drew knew this but he din't want the blame for this one, he'd mad the biggest mistake of his life. ''And you need to own up to you're mistake!''
''Its you're mistake to!'' He yelled he could believe Clare was blaming him for this one! Clare turned on him tears running down her face.
''I KNOW! You know, Eli and I were finally starting to reconnect, and then this happens! I hope to God its not yours but lets be real, there's no way its Eli's Eli's going to hate me forever!'' She was worried about ELI? What the hell was wrong with her! ''How can you worry about ELI? Clare you're about to be a mother! How can you worry about ELI?''
''Because I love him, he doesn't know we had sex Drew, and when I tell him its going to KILL him and i've already hurt him enough''. She began to walk again and Drew turned her around to face him.
''So get an abortion''. he said it would solve both their problems, he wouldn't have to deal with a baby and Clare could forget about hurting Eli. ''Then Eli doesn't have to know''.
''I'm not going to lie to Eli Drew, he has to know, and i'm not killing our baby, Eli can help me find out what to do if he forgives me, then you can forget about owning up to you're mistake''. So she was going to throw Eli under the bus?
''So you're going to ruin Eli's life by telling both you're parents its his baby?''Clare shook her head and walked away, she just couldn't deal with this now, she walked to the Dot and sat down and cried, how could she have been so careless?
She wouldn't have Eli's help, he'd never forgive her! Not that she blamed him one little bit. She couldn't tell her friends or her parents right now, and Darcy was to far away. But she knew there was someone who'd come to her aid right away. She picked up her phone and dialed her brothers phone number. When it didn't pick up she began to cry even harder. ''Jake its Clare''. She said trying to swallow her tears but it wasn't working. ''Look can you call me when you have minute, everything's going wrong''. She wiped her nose and cried even harder and the thought of what her brother would think. ''You're the only one in the family who won't hate me, I need you''. The message cut off and Clare cried even harder feeling so alone in that moment.
''Clare?'' Jenna's voice was soothing, she'd obviously gotten her voice message Clare had been crying in that one too. ''Tell me whats wrong and why you can't tell Alli too.'' Clare sighed and tried to stop the tears. Jenna was the only one who'd really understand her right now. She thought Dallas would take her side. He'd tried to abort his son too, But now he loved Rocky like Crazy and would kill Drew for even suggesting it. As for Kc?
''He wants me to get an Abortion! '' She sobbed forgetting Jenna didn't know she was pregnant. ''Iv'e taken three tests and all of then are positives ''. Jenna's eyes widened.
''Oh Clare you have to see a doctor now! I know what happened when you don't you run out of options! I can call KC and ask him to talk to Drew, he's not going to be happy to hear about this, you know how much he loves Ty.'' Clare nodded, both Drew and Kc would kill Drew. ''I can take you to a Doctor, and help you tell you're parents and Eli, you're not going to be alone! I'm not going to let you go through this alone!'' Clare smiled for the first time, her and Jenna had a rough start, but Jenna was really supportive.
''Thanks Jenna, that means a lot''. Just then her phone rang and Clare looked at the ID, it was Jake, she knew he'd call the second he got the call. She felt her stomach turn with nerves, she looked at Jenna. ''Its Jake''. Jenna nodded.
''Talk to him, he called me, he worried about you''. Clare pressed talk and tried to speak clearly she knew she still sounded upset.
''Jake, you called back''.
''Of course I did Clare, whats wrong? Why are you so upset?''. Clare took a breath, she had to say these worlds now.
"I'm pregnent". She heard silence on the other line." Please , say something ".
I'm gonna kill Eli". Jake had given Eli a warning about what would happen if Clare got pregnant. Clare sobbed again, she had to tell him it was Drew's now. " I'm going to chop off his di_" Clare cut him off.
"Its not Elis". She sighed as Jenna looked at her with shock in her eyes, but she knew who else it had to be. " Its Drew's, he wants me to get a abortion.
"Oh Clare, I'm so sorry, I'll kill him if you want". Clare smirked and laughed for the first time.
" Not if Eli gets to him first". She sighed thinking about about how much Eli would hate almost started crying again. "Hes going to hate me Jake, he's not going to want to get back together after he finds out".
" Clare, if I know Eli , he won't care; he's crazy about you Clare what you two have is epic it won't just end, this is another chapter of you're love story". Clare sniffled smiling to herself, her and Eli were just friends right now any way.
"You're right, thanks Jake". She smiled telling Eli could wait, she's start with her mother. That would be hard enough. She hung up and looked at Jenna. " First step is telling my mother". She sighed looking over at Jenna.
"Okay, here's what you do, you sit her down, wait till she's in a good mood; then just blurt it out. Then, the worst is over". Clare shook her head.
" The worst will be how she responds to the news". Clare said as she glanced over at Jenna. "Wish me luck, I should get home, thanks Jenna its great to talk to someone who gets it." Clare drove home still crying, she wouldn't be surprised if her mother kicked her out. She pulled up to her house and sighed wishing she didn't have to do this. She walked into the house where her mother was making dinner. She sat down and tried to build up strength to speak.
"Hi Honey, how was school?" It was now or never, she'd have to say it now. "Clare?" Her mother turned around and watched her. She noticed the tears and sat down across from her daughter right away. "What's wrong now?" Her mother was used to her daughters school Drama. "Eli again?"
"Partly, its going to affect him". She shuttered a sigh and wiped her eyes. " Mom, you're going to hate me". Her mom looked concerned but not angry. "I've done something horrible".
" I couldn't hate you, no matter what you've done". She got up and hugged her daughter.
"Mom I'm pregnant". The worst was over, now to tell Eli .
