:( Janet, Johnny and Frankie were on thin ice. I love Johnny and Janet so I want them to stay but if they were the last three, I'd pick Frankie and Johnny to go. Sobs! O why did Johnny and Janet have to be the worse?
Sorry I hadn't uploaded in so long, a lots been happening but, smile :D I'm back!
"So where exactly do you live?" I asked Ashley while we walked to school.
"Oh em...around 64 lane." Smiled Ashley as we approached my school. (Got the idea from 64 Zoo Lane. God! How I miss my childhood)
"Why do you walk me to school when you're home schooled?" I asked, curiously.
"Oh! I...I just like to take a morning walk and get some muffins."
"You mean steal!" I mocked, laughing.
Ashley gave me a face ready to punch me one.
"HEY!" She yelled ready to bust a move.
"Hey, chill, was just kidding." I laughed it off.
Ashley folded her arms ready to huff with me.
"Okay, okay," I smiled. "I'm going now so...don't hurt me."
I slowly backed away smiling a I'm not guilty smile. When I was far enough I sprinted to the school in sight.
…
I leaned on my locker waiting for the others. Suddenly, Gretchen came running, tears leaking from her eyes.
"Gretchen!" I gasped.
'It can't be true! It just can't...'
"Gretchen, what's wrong?" I asked panic in my voice.
"It's...it's...it's a positive. This time I took three tests and it all said the same." She sobbed.
"You're gonna have to tell him." I hushed her.
She looked up at me with pleading eyes.
'No!' She mouthed.
I nodded.
Gretchen sobbed harder.
"I...I...I just can't!"
"You have to! He deserves to know there's a baby on the way!"
Gretchen fell to the ground.
I held her and slowly took her down.
"What's he...he gonna say! I can't tell him!"
"Well, you'll find the words when it comes to it and soon he'll start to notice."I tried to make her face the facts.
"Oh God,"
"Come on, smile. He's gonna be here soon. Tell him when you're alone."
…
"So..." I began. "Do you normally do that?"
We were walking down the street and Ashley was walking across an inch thick fence which was about the size of the ground to my chest.
She held out her arms for balance and walked across it with no bother.
"Of course!" I heard a slight irritation in her voice.
I nodded accepting the fact that a fifteen year old girl walks on a fence everyday.
"Do you not fall?"
"I never fall. Ever." she replied biting her lip trying to concentrate.
"Not even if ice is on it?"
"Can you please shut-up!" She shouted before continuing on.
"Just wondering," I mumbled under my breathe.
"Oh that's it!" Ashley yelled jumping down. "If you've got a problem say it!"
"I'm fine!" I backed away.
"Well then SHUT-UP!" Ashley screamed before hoping back on the fence and walked on.
"Fine, whatever." I rolled my eyes.
"So, is she?"
"Is she what?" I asked in a confused tonne.
"Pregnant!" Ashley started to raise her voice.
"Yeah, apparently so." I sighed.
Ashley jumped down. "Really?"
I nodded and rolled my eyes.
"Jez!" Ashley gasped. "Has she told Vince?"
"She's going too. I pushed her to it." I admitted.
"I see, well, she has to tell him some time."
"Yeah, I know."
"Well, see ya TJ!" Ashley ran off.
"Hey!" I yelled back at her. "Where you going?"
"Bye TJ!" She yelled again.
I sighed.
'That girl!'
Vince's POV
I jogged to Gretchen's house. With a knock on the door I heard and a snip of the door, came Gretchen standing mighty and tall.
"Heya." I smiled giving her a quick peck on the face.
I walked to the kitchen and got out a glass of water after all the running I did.
"How was practice?" Gretchen asked.
"It was great! Coach said I can get a place in the sports college if I keep up." I smiled at her. I saw her face fall.
"Gretchen don't worry, you'll be in another, better college and you'll be doing a good life and me and you can have a long distance relationship." I smiled, encouraging her for the future.
"Yes..." Gretchen drowned.
"What?" I asked curiously.
Something wasn't right but what?
I walked over to her, after washing my cup.
"Gretchen, please answer?" I asked again after I gave her a tender kiss. "Please."
Gretchen started to breathe uneasy.
"Maybe we should go into the living room." Gretchen began a little shaky in her voice.
We went in and sat down on the cream couch.
"What's wrong? You still sick?" I asked, concerned for her.
I leaned over the gap separating our sofas and I held her hand.
"I don't want to." Gretchen began to cry.
"Hey," I smiled. "Whatever it is, I'm sure it's not that bad."
"But it is, it is." She sobbed.
"Tell me and I'll decide. I'll show you we can work our way around it." I smiled, encouraging her.
She sniffled a little and looked up at me.
"Vince," She began. She took a big deep breathe. "Vince, I'm pregnant."
'I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant, pregnant, pregnant...pregnant...pregnant...'
These were the words that haunted me.
I suddenly gasped!
And with the closing chapter...
we sleep once more!
