Chapter 13:

*Ashley's POV*

That night was amazing. Kendall and I had an amazing time at the show and it couldn't have been a better night. But now, a month later, I was pacing in my apartment clutching my phone in my hands with a few tears falling down my face. Before I could think twice about it, I scrolled through my contacts and hit a name I knew I could trust without judgment. Tears started falling harder when I heard him answer.

"Hello?" I heard Logan answer, thank god.

"Logie…" I sob, sitting down on my couch, bringing my knees up to my chest.

"Ashley, what's wrong?" He asks, obvious concern lacing his voice.

"Logie, I need to talk to you, can you come to my apartment please, unless you're busy."

"No I'm just with Camille, do you want me to bring her too? And do you want me to get the guys?" I heard him get up off a couch.

"No only Camille, please don't bring the guys…"

"Okay, we'll be there in 2 minutes." We hung up and I just started crying into my knees again until I heard my door open then close with feet rushing into the living room. The spot me and quickly run to me "Ash, are you alright? Are you hurt? Did Kendall do something?" Logan starts asking frantically.

"No I'm fine and Kendall didn't do anything to hurt me…" I wipe my tears as Camille wraps an arm around my shoulders and Logan sat on the table in front of me. "Camille, you'll understand if you go look at my calendar." She gets up and walks over to the calendar looking it over. I heard her gasp and the run back into the living room, engulfing me into a huge hug.

"Oh my god…" She whispers into my ear.

"What's going on?" A confused Logan asked, moving to stand up from his spot on the coffee table.

Camille pulled away from the hug and let me sit back down on the couch as she led him into the kitchen, where my calendar sits. I hear her explaining to him what it meant and then he gasps as well. They both walk back in and then he hugs me too "Do you know for sure Ash?"

"No, I just realized I was late today, I didn't get it last month and I haven't gotten it this month. Then I remembered that after the party we went to a few weeks ago, when Kendall and I got back we…um…did that and we didn't use anything. We were too caught up in the moment to remember. I am so scared Logan. I can't do this to Kendall, or the band. It's not fair to you guys for me to ruin everything you have worked so hard for. You would all hate me" I start to heavily cry again and he and Camille rub my back in support.

"Ashley, you would never do that to us and we could never hate you. Now, I'll tell you what were going to do alright, Camille and I are going to go and pick one up for you. We will take the grief for it from the paparazzi and tell them it was us that needed it." Logan explained Camille nodded her head in agreement.

I shake my head and stand up in front of them "I am not letting you two take the fall for my mistake, I couldn't do that to you both."

The both stand up too and stand in front of me "But for us it will be obvious I'm not because I wouldn't be growing and it would take the attention off you if you are" Camille says "So you don't have a say in this, we will go and get it now and come back here with it alright?" She says as her and Logan pick up their coats and walks out the door, leaving me in my thoughts again.

They soon return "Well that will be on E, news tonight for sure. For some reason it was swarmed of paparazzi out there. We picked up 2 packs if you wanted to be extra sure and take 4." I take them out of the bag and head to the bathroom, but then I turn around and look at them.

"I can't do this without him here…" I say, tears threatening to fall.

"Okay, I'll call him." Logan says, walking out into the living room to call him. Camille came over and wiped my tears.

"Oh Ash, don't cry. It's all going to be okay. If you are all of us will be there for you from start to finish and you know that." She says, hugging me and rubbing my back with nothing but comfort.

"Thank you Camille" We pull away when we hear the door open and close again and Kendall and Logan whispering to each other. When Kendall sees me, he dashes over to me in a panic.

"Are you alright Ash, Logan said you needed me for an emergency." He says, kissing my forehead then looking down into my blue eyes. Tears once again fall and he tries to wrap his arms around me but I pull away and run into the bathroom.

*Logan's POV*

Camille and I watched as Ashley started to push Kendall away. We all knew that was her defense mechanism. When she felt she had made someone angry or she was scared she would upset them, she would push them away so they wouldn't hate her or hurt her. I saw Kendall turn to us in absolute confusion. "Camille, go after her please…" I ask my girlfriend, who nods her head and rushes into the bathroom after Ashley.

"What is going on Logan?" Kendall asked, wonder and worry flooding his face and eyes.

I shake my head, hoping I wouldn't have to do this "Kendall, Ashley-" I was cut off by my phone started ringing. I groan and answer it, seeing it was Gustavo. "Hello? Alright, we'll be there soon." I hang up and shove my phone in my pocket. "Gustavo wants BTR in the studio now…" I walk towards the bathroom and tell the girls we had to go and I didn't get the chance to tell him. I grab Kendall and we go to round up the other guys.

A few hours later, we head back to 2J with smiles. Gustavo told us that our albums sales and Ashley's album sales were doing amazing and we were on the iTunes top purchased list. When we walk into the apartment, we are greeted by Mama Knight and Katie sitting at the table. Katie was playing her DS and Mama Knight looked like she was waiting for us. "What's going on mom?" Kendall asks, slipping his shoes and coat off.

"Well I was watching E News and I heard this." The story of Camille and I buying pregnancy test earlier played and I closed my eyes knowing I would have to come clean now about Ashley, even though I didn't want to be the one to do it. I was met my glances from all the people in the room, but before I could comment the door swung open and it was Camille and Ashley.

"Uh oh," Camille said, looking at the TV then at everyone else. "Look it's not what you think."

"Oh well then what is it?" Mama Knight says calmly, but we all know she is angry.

I open my mouth to speak but I was cut off my Ashley "They were buying them for me."

Everyone's glance goes from Camille and me to the innocent, petite girl behind Camille.

*Ashley's POV*

I step out from behind Camille with my arms crossed and my lips in a straight line. Mama Knight looked at me with a shocked look "What Ashley?"

"They were buying the pregnancy tests for me." I say one last time, looking her right in the eyes.

"Oh Ashley, are you?" She rushes over to me and hugs me. I effortlessly put my arms around her back and shake my head.

"No, I'm not. Now excuse me." I turned around and walked out of the apartment heading to mine to go to bed early. This had been one hell of a stressful day for me.

*Kendall's POV*

When Ashley walks out of the room and runs to hers, I am stuck in my spot, unable to move in shock. Everyone turns to me and before they can say anything, I bolt out of the room with no certain destination set in my mind.

As I am walking out of the lobby I slide my hood on and walk to the beach that Ashley and I usually go too late at night. It was almost 10pm when I get there so it is deserted. I put my hands in my hoodie pockets and keep the hood on as I walk along the water's edge, close enough to the water, but not close enough so it touches me. My thoughts continued to cloud my mind. My girlfriend thought she was pregnant and didn't tell me… That must have been what Logan was about to tell me earlier before Gustavo called because Ashley must have been too afraid too. I sit down in the sand and just stare out into the horizon.

"I'm not mad you know" I turn around and see James walking towards me with a little smile. I shake my head at him

"How are you not, I almost got your 17 year old sister pregnant" I say looking back at the horizon instead of James. He comes and sits down next to me

"Kendall, you are my best friend and you are the only guy I would ever trust my sister to be with for the rest of her life because I know you are a good guy with a good heart. If it came down to the fact that my sister was pregnant at 17 with your baby, I would have been excited." I turn my head and stare at him confused as he continues to speak "Before you ask 'why would you have been excited' the only answer I have is because you wouldn't have done it on purpose and you wouldn't have left her."

"But then BTR would be over. Gustavo wouldn't have let us continue it and our reps would be ruined. How could you be okay with that? This is all you have ever wanted." Neither of us are looking at each other, just staring out at the horizon, until he turns his head and looks at me.

"If anyone can be a teen parent and be a rock star at the same time, it's you man" James smiles at me "Now come on, let's get back to the apartment, your mom was freaking out when you left like that."

I get up and follow him until I realize something and stop "Wait" James stops and turns to me "How did you know I was here?"

"My sister talks to me you know? When you guys have dates, she tells me about it and how amazing it was. She mentions this place all the time and how you both come here after you have dates just for alone time" I smile and we both continue our walk back to the Palm Woods.

*Ashley's POV*

I woke up the next morning with a huge headache. I slowly get up, reminiscing everything that happened yesterday, and we had school today so I would have to face the others at some point. I walk into my bathroom and strip from my clothes, but before I climb into the shower I glance in the mirror, wondering how it would look if my stomach would begin to bulge. I smile at the thought of carrying Kendall's baby, but I know it would be impossible with their crazy busy schedules, but a girl can dream I guess. I shower and get dressed in (http: /www. polyvore. com/ cgi/ set? id= 43738454). I slide my phone into my back pocket and was putting my shoes on when I heard a knock on my door. I finish tying my shoe and open the door seeing my wonderful boyfriend standing there…well I hope he still wants to be with me after I didn't tell him I thought I was pregnant. I slightly smile at him and move over for him to enter.

"Look Kendall-" I start to say before I am cut off by him.

"Before you start apologizing, you have to know I am not mad at you and neither is anyone else. Yes I was shocked when you said that they were buying the tests for you, but then I remembered and got scared. I just wish you would have called me instead of Logan, even though I am glad him and Camille helped you like that. But I still love you and am willing to move on from this with you. I want to be with you forever…" I was shocked by his speech, but I managed to grow a wider smile and run over to him. I jumped into him, throwing my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist. I start giggling as he hugs me back and laughs. I don't get down but I pull back and attach my lips against his. He tries to deepen the kiss, but I pull back and get down, grabbing my bag and turning back to him, who now has a look of sadness on his face.

"We have to get to school then the studio after, so there is no time for that" He opens his mouth to speak, but I cut him off "That doesn't mean you can't stay here tonight though, unless your mom wouldn't like that anymore"

"She doesn't have a say for me anymore, I'm a man!" He jokingly says, making us both laugh. We interlock our fingers together and walk down to school, seeing everyone waiting for us in the lobby.

"You guys good now?" James asks us smiling hopefully. I hold our hands up and smile, saying we were without words. They cheer and we all head to school for a normal day, well normal for us at least.
