Best Friends Forever:
Chapter: 10: "Kayleigh's Big Decision"
AN: Hey! So I have been just lazy to write. Lol, I never would just leave you guys hanging, though. I love your thoughts and reviews! Makes me smile.
Now, in this chapter, Kayleigh makes a big decision and tells her family and Jake.
Kayleigh was now awake after she fell asleep after fell asleep from finding out she's pregnant. Pregnant. She's pregnant. She didn't know what to do with the pregnancy. There was three options she had, there was keeping the baby, adoption, and or abortion. Abortion was totally out of the question though, she could never do that. Even though, Kayleigh was young, she could never kill her baby. Adoption seemed to be okay too. But, the thing is that she has to tell her family and Jake. She wasn't going to like telling everyone about her pregnancy. Life wouldn't be the same anymore though. Nothing. She sure that she would have a long nine months ahead of her.
Kayleigh decided it was time to tell her mother. Her mother knew how to deal with pregnancies. She didn't know how she was gonna take it. Kayleigh is the oldest, the oldest baby of Cody and Bailey. Gosh, the pregnancy will break their heart.
It would kill them. Cody, her father had just had a breakdown of yelling at her a few weeks ago, he will freak the fuck out even more now that he'll know that she's pregnant. Her parents raised her right, not to end up pregnant at 15 years old with a 19 year old's baby. That would be her boyfriend's baby, but still, really shocking.
Kayleigh took a deep breath before she knew it was time. She headed downstairs to the kitchen. She saw Bailey cleaning the kitchen. Kayleigh took a deep breath again.
"Mom? Can I talk to you?"
Bailey nodded. "Of course. What's wrong?"
Kayleigh tried not to cry, but tears came to her eyes. "Can we talk upstairs?"
Her mother nodded her head. "Of course…"
The mother and daughter headed upstairs, into Kayleigh's room and both sat down on her bed.
Bailey was getting nervous. Kayleigh hasn't said a word since they came up here.
"Kay? Are you alright?"
Kayleigh just looked up at her and sighed. Her tears filled up in her eyes. She didn't know how to break the news to her mother.
Bailey pulled her close and rubbed her back. "Kay...What's wrong?"
Kayleigh shook her head. "I'm not alright, Momma...I...I made a mistake…"
Bailey was confused, yet she wanted to know what her daughter meant. "What was that, sweetheart?"
Kayleigh began to cry slightly. "I…" She took another breath. "...I slept with Jake...and now…" She started crying harder and louder. "...and now, I'm...Mommy, I'm pregnant…"
Bailey didn't know what to say to that. Her baby was pregnant. Her baby girl, her first born baby is having a baby. And she wasn't ready for it, but it's coming. Really soon. Like in nine months. She looked at Kayleigh again, who was scared.
"Momma? Are you okay?"
Bailey slowly nodded her head. "Um...Yeah...I'm fine, I'm just, I just want to be sure I heard that right...Did you just say that you were pregnant?"
Kayleigh gulped slightly, more like really loud as she nodded. "Yeah…" Her tears streamed down her cheeks. "I'm so, so, so sorry! If you want me to get an abortion I will…"
Bailey shook her head. "Now, why would I say that you should get an abortion, Kayleigh Marie? I could never tell you what to do. This is your baby."
She was right. This was her baby. Her decision. Nobody else should tell her what to do with her baby.
"I guess you are right."
Bailey sighed, thinking of Cody. "Kay, you aren't out of the woods yet, you have to tell your father…"
Her father. Cody. The man that saw her as his baby girl, princess, first born baby and just she was just his world. She was pregnant. He freaked out when she came home late from Jake's, she was grounded too, she had no idea what he'd do with this.
The teenager nodded. "Okay…"
Bailey kissed her head. "You'll be alright. I'm gonna go set you up with an appointment."
Kayleigh nodded and sighed. "Thanks, Momma."
Bailey looked at her daughter as she got up from the bed. "You're welcome. Now, I'd go tell your father."
Kayleigh groaned. "But...He'll murder me!"
Bailey sighed. "Kay, stop being so dramatic. He'll tell and scream, but he would never murder you."
Kayleigh sighed. "Yes he will, Mom!"
Bailey sighed. "Kayleigh, please, go tell him…"
Kayleigh nodded as she headed downstairs, she walked into the living and saw Cody reading and she gulped.
"Daddy?"
Cody smiled as he looked up at her. "Hey baby girl."
Kayleigh hated when he called her that when she had to tell him something. It was really important and she wanted to just get this over.
She sat down next to him. "Daddy...I...I need to tell you something…"
Cody put his book down and looked at her. "What's wrong?"
Kayleigh teared up once again. She didn't know she could cry this much. She had no idea how to tell him. She took a deep breath. "Daddy...You're gonna be really mad or upset with me…"
Cody didn't know what she meant. "What are you talking about, baby?"
Kayleigh's tears had her makeup smeared all over her face. "I...I'm pregnant, Daddy…"
Cody's eyes went wide. He wasn't happy. He wanted to kill Jake, he did that to his baby girl. He wasn't disappointed in her that she would do that. Sleep with her boyfriend and then end up pregnant.
"You're what? Pregnant? Jake did that to you?!"
Kayleigh breathed deeply. "Yes…"
Cody stood up and ran to the door. He wanted to murder Jake. He had gotten his baby pregnant at 15.
"I'm gonna kill him!"
Kayleigh followed him and ran to the door before he could open it. "Daddy! No! I haven't told him yet! Please don't kill him! I want him around for me and the baby!"
Cody shook his head. "You can tell him but I don't want him around you ever again, Kayleigh Marie!"
Kayleigh's tears fell more. She was heartbroken. "Daddy! I can't raise this baby myself! I have school to finish!"
Cody yelled at her. "You got me and your mother! You can still graduate!"
Kayleigh wiped her eyes and cheeks. "But, Daddy! Jake deserves to know and see his baby!" She sighed.
Cody shook his head still. "I still don't care, Kayleigh! You go tell him but you have to tell him that you can't see him ever again!"
Kayleigh got mad and ran her hands through her hair. "I hate you! Why?! I love him, Daddy!"
Cody crossed his arms. "Go tell him. Now."
Kayleigh groaned loudly. "Ugh! Fine, but I'm never talking to you ever again!"
And with that, she ran out the door and ran to Jake's apartment as she cried harder. She was already really emotional and scared and now this. Her own father doesn't want her to see her boyfriend and he didn't know him to know his own baby. That killed her. She didn't want to raise the baby on her own. She made it to his apartment. She didn't know how to tell him. It killed her soul that she would never get to see the man she loved ever again. She knocked on the door.
Jake, 19, her boyfriend opened the door. He smiled at first, but then frowned. "Baby, what's wrong?"
Kayleigh ran into his arms as she broke down into tears. She held him tightly. She didn't want to let him go.
Jake kissed her head and led her into the apartment. He led her to the couch and held her close as she continued to cry. "Kay?"
Kayleigh looked up at him and wiped her eyes again. Three times that day. "Jake...I….I'm pregnant…"
Jake's eyes went wide, but still held her in his arms. "Oh, baby...This is my fault! I'm so sorry!"
Kayleigh nodded, but sighed. "I know...but there's nothing you can do, Jake. My Dad doesn't want you to see me or the baby…"
Jake's eyes went wide. "What? But, Kay, this is my baby too!"
She sighed. She knew that. But, there was nothing she could do. "I know...I know...I can't stop him from this, Jake. I don't like it either, but I have to do this…" She kissed him. "I love you. I'm sorry." She got up and walked out of the apartment.
Jake just sat there. He was tough but this teared himself apart. He loved Kayleigh so much. Cody didn't want him to see her and he was heartbroken. Jake wouldn't hurt her ever. Now, that was real. Cody had them break up.
Meanwhile, at Cailey's house, Bailey was yelling at Cody.
"Cody Martin, you what?! Why?! Why would you tell her that?"
Cody ran his hands through his hair. "Yes, I told her to tell him and I told her to have Jake away from her and the baby."
Bailey groaned. "But why? He has the right to see the baby and our daughter, Cody! That's his child too!"
Cody groaned too. "But, he got my baby pregnant, Bailey!"
Bailey sighed. "I know...but isn't this Kayleigh's decision?"
Cody sighed as he nodded. "It is...Okay, if Jake helps, I'll let him around, but I still don't trust him…"
Bailey took a deep breath and nodded. "Thank you."
Soon, Kayleigh came home, she opened the door and saw her parents there. She sighed.
"Hi."
Cody and Bailey both looked at her. Bailey spoke up.
"I think we need to talk. It's time to talk about this. Together, as a family."
Cody, Bailey and Kayleigh all sat down on the couch. Bailey looked at her daughter. "Kay, your father needs to tell you something."
Cody nodded as he took a breath. After yelling at his daughter earlier, he felt like he needed to tell her something. She did need to make a decision herself, not him, and not Bailey. No one, but her. Not even Jake. It was her own decision.
"Kay, I'm sorry that I yelled at you earlier." He took her hand. "I'm sorry I made you tell Jake and then tell him to stay away from you. He has the right to stay with you and help. But, I still don't like him."
Kayleigh gave a small smile. "Really?"
Bailey nodded her head. "Kay, this is really your decision. You are carrying the baby after all."
Kayleigh nodded and smiled. "Okay." She looked at her parents. "I...I think I'm gonna keep the baby. I want to keep the baby."
Both nodded.
Cody kissed her forehead. "Alright, you go tell Jake your decision and tell him that he can see you and the baby."
Kayleigh nodded as she headed upstairs.
Once upstairs, the 15 years old called her boyfriend to tell him her decision. She's keeping her baby.
Jake nodded. "Okay, we can do this together. I'm not going anywhere."
Kayleigh gave a small smile. "Really?"
He smiled. "I'm not leaving you and my baby. We're going to work together."
She smiled. "Okay. Good."
He then asked her a question. "When is your appointment?"
She smiled. "Tomorrow at 12."
Jake nodded again. "Alright, I'll be there. I love you."
Kayleigh smiled. "I love you too."
She hung up her phone and sighed out of relief.
This wouldn't be so bad. Maybe. She is still fifteen. Still in school and now is going to be a mother. But with her parents and Jake by her side, it wouldn't be so hard. But it could be harder soon. Right now, Kayleigh needed to take a break about everything.
After all, the longest nine months of her life is starting. No hanging with her friends, partying, sleepovers, staying out late, going to the gym, or just doing nothing when you're tired. All of that changed, because now Kayleigh is pregnant. Now the next nine months will be the longest nine months of Kayleigh Martin's life, along with her family, friends and Jake's family.
To be continued…
AN: Okay chapter 10 is done! Kayleigh's first doctors appointment is the next chapter. Both Jake and Kayleigh have a shock of their lives.
Okay, that's all, bye!
