A/N: I wanted to explore Aria's private thoughts. I hope you all enjoy it!


Chapter 10.5

Aria's POV

I sat on my bed rubbing my growing stomach. Ever since Dad and I got feelings of remorse and guilt have set in heavily. I ruined everyone's life and now I'm paying for it. Ezra is stuck going to a college because he has to be a parent.

My parents are at odds with each other because they both have two different viewpoints as what to do with me.

Mike got into a fight with one of the guys on his lacrosse team because they heard that I was pregnant.

Emily's mom has been giving her lectures about abstinence. Hanna's mom has been asking about hers and Sean's sex life. Spencer has been the only one who's parents haven't said anything.

Since I've started , the whispers and looks I've been getting have made me barely go outside. I should be happy, I have support and Ezra's willing to stay. But every time I face negativity, I feel like I want to break down and cry.

I wipe a stray tear from my cheek. I hated feeling this way. What makes it worse is that my child will probably come home crying because some mod made fun of them for being conceived out of wedlock.

I began to cry harder with that thought. I didn't want my child to have to suffer. I want them to have a life where they feel free to be themselves and not be judged. Hell, I wanted that too. I would think people would be happy that I was being responsible and taking care of my child. But I knew that wasn't going to happen. At least not now anyway.


A/N: I know this is short, but it was something that popped into my head last night. I hope you like it! :)
