Chapter 12: Baby? Who's Having A Baby?
"Well…most people like this, but since you're only sixteen, I don't think you will be too thrilled about it."
"Oh my god! Just tell me!" Casey screamed.
"Okay, Casey, you're having twins!"
"WHAT? How do you know?"
"Your sonogram."
"Oh, my life sucks! Well thanks Doctor Parker, bye!"
"Bye, Casey."
Casey started crying hysterically. Nora walked over and hugged her.
"Casey, what's wrong?"
"I'm h-h-having t-t-twins!" Casey screamed.
"Oh Casey, I'm so sorry!"
"Twins? You're having twins?" Lizzie asked.
"Y-yes!"
"Wow." Lizzie said that was the only thing she could say.
"I-I'm going to go tell D-De-Derek."
"Okay Casey, do you want me to come with you?" Nora asked.
"N-no, I can d-do this my-myself." She stuttered.
Casey walked out of her room and across the hall to Derek's and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Derek yelled and Casey walked into his room still crying. Derek was lying on his bed and got up when he saw Casey crying.
"Casey, what's wrong?" He asked going over to hug her.
"I-I just got a call from Doctor P-Parker."
"Oh, what did she say?"
"We-we are having twins!" She cried.
"Twins? Whoa! I can't believe it! Oh my god! Are lives are SO fucked up!"
"I KNOW!" Casey screamed between sobs.
"Like I said we'll, get through this." Derek comforted.
"That's easy for you to say, you're not the one having this baby!" Casey yelled running out of the room. She ran into Marti as she was running, not paying attention to where she was going because she was crying hysterically.
"Baby? Who's having a baby?" Marti asked curiously. This made Casey cry even harder and she ran into her room ignoring Marti's question, and happy to see Nora and Lizzie had left. She lay on her bed and cried into her pillows while thinking about her life.
My life sucks! What's the point of living? My life is ruined, I'm having a baby at sixteen, and all my classmates will be having fun hanging out, going to college in a couple of years and I'll be stuck at home taking care of a baby! I don't want to put it up for adoption! Kids that are put up for adoption feel unwanted, and it's my fault that this baby will exist. I will NOT put it up for adoption, that wouldn't be fair! Casey, the point of living is, you are only sixteen you have your whole life ahead of you, whether it includes a baby or not! You have to live or the baby won't live! Casey get a grip! You're just having a moment of weakness! Okay, Casey be STRONG!
"CASEY!" Nora screamed knocking on her door.
"What?" Casey asked
"Dinners ready I've been calling you for at least ten minutes. Didn't you hear me?"
"N-no." Casey said.
"Casey, I know your upset, but you have to go on with your life to keep it a secret from everyone who doesn't know! Now please Casey, come down to dinner."
"Fine!" Casey said getting up and walking out of her room behind Nora.
When they got into the dining room and sat down, Marti decided to ask Casey her question again, since she didn't answer earlier.
"Casey, what baby were you talking about earlier, you never answered my question?" Marti asked even more curious now since she didn't answer earlier.
"Oh nothing Marti, nothing."
"But I want to know!" Marti whined.
"It was nothing Marti!" Casey said trying not to sound irritated.
"Why are you keeping it a secret Casey?" Edwin asked.
"Keeping WHAT a secret?" Marti yelled.
"That she's…" Lizzie put her hand over Edwin's mouth before he could finish his sentence. Edwin pushed Lizzie's hand down and screamed, "PREGNANT!"
"What? Casey's having a baby?" Marti exclaimed.
"Edwin your SUCH a jerk!" Lizzie screamed, starting to cry for some reason and running up the stairs. They heard a door open and then slam shut.
"What's her problem?" Edwin asked.
"You know what Edwin, you ARE a jerk!" Casey yelled starting to cry too and got up from the table and went up to Lizzie's room.
"Um, what are their problems?" Edwin asked really confused.
George was shaking his head disappointed in Edwin. "Edwin, how could you do that, Casey is upset enough, but you just had to bring it up again? You are so insensitive! Wow I can't believe I just said insensitive!"
Marti was just sitting there confused at what just happened. "So wait…Casey's gonna have a baby?"
"Yes Smarti, but don't say it again, especially in front of Casey, okay?"
"Okay Smerek." Marti agreed.
"Um…I'm going to go see what's up with Casey and Lizzie." Nora said getting up from the table and walked upstairs.
Meanwhile in Lizzie's Room
"Hey Liz!" Casey said still crying a little.
"You c-could k-knock!" She cried.
"Liz what's wrong?"
"N-nothing, I just thought Edwin was a little nicer than that!"
"Why do you care?"
"I don't k-know!"
"Oh, you like him don't you Liz?"
"NO!" Lizzie screamed defensively.
"Yeah, you do!"
"Maybe a little, but he's my step brother so I can't like him!"
"I like Derek and he's my step brother, but look where that got me!" Casey said sitting down next to Lizzie on her bed.
"Exactly."
"Look Liz, do what you think is right. I wasn't thinking when I did what I did! Just…always think! Okay?"
"Okay." Lizzie agreed.
Nora knocked and opened the door.
"Hey, is everything alright?"
"Yeah, we worked it out." Casey told her.
"Are you sure?" Nora asked.
"Absolutely! Nothings wrong, really Mom" Casey assured her.
"Okay, but Liz why were you crying?"
"I don't even know." Lizzie explained to her mother. She didn't want to tell her why she was really crying.
"Okaaay. Do you guys want to come back down to dinner now?"
"No I lost my appetite." Casey said.
"Me too."
"Okay, well I'm going to go back down."
"Okay, bye Mom!"
"Yeah, bye Mom!" Lizzie yelled as Nora walked out of the room.
"So are you going to tell Edwin you like him?" Casey asked.
"No, are you crazy?"
"I think you should, I told Derek how I feel, but I knew he liked me already."
"You knew, how?"
"Sam told me. So I told Derek how I feel, and now I'm pregnant!"
"Yeah…I don't think I want to tell Edwin, if I ever get the courage to tell him, I will, but you BETTER not to tell him, okay?"
"Okay, of course! I won't tell him!"
"Pinky swear?"
"Pinky swear." Casey agrees holding out her pinky. Lizzie wrapped her pinky around Casey's.
"So are you going to put the babies up for adoption?" Lizzie asked.
"No! I think that's really mean!"
"You think that's mean but you want to get them aborted?"
"I guess that's a little weird, but yeah!"
"So you and Derek are going to take care of two babies? How are you going to do that?" Lizzie asked.
"I don't know Liz, I really don't know!" Casey confessed.
A/N Okay, if it's too early to know she's having twins, sorry in advance! I hope you enjoyed R&R!
