Chapter 25
Saturday finally came and for Jason and Kelsi it came to soon. Today would be the day they shared their news with the others. Kelsi and Jason had told everyone to meet at the girl's apartment at 3pm knowing Chad wouldn't be up till at least 2pm sometimes.
"Ok what is up with you two because you have been very secretive and now its freaky the fact you say you need to tell us something?" Sharpay said as everyone sat around the room.
"What we are going to tell you first might make you a bit mad but please be happy for us." Kelsi told them nervously.
"During the summer me and Kelsi got married." Everyone's jaw dropped.
"You got married without your best friends?" Troy said in an offended manner as Gabriella whacked him.
"Shut up. Congratulations guys." Gabriella got up and hugged the two.
"Thanks Gabi but we also have something else to tell you." Jason squeezed Kelsi's hand as she continued. "I'm pregnant." Everyone had just started to recover from the first announcement and were now trying to deal with another one.
"Anything else?" Chad asked as everyone looked at him.
"No." Kelsi started to tear up thinking all her friends hated her. She couldn't stand the silence in the room and just ran into her room crying.
"Can I go?" Gabriella asked as Jason nodded. No one else had said anything.
"You going to say anything?" Jason asked the others who looked at him.
"You got married without telling us and now we find out Kelsi's pregnant? What do you want us to say? We are in a bit of a state of shock." Sharpay told Jason.
"How long since you guys got married?" Ryan asked.
"3 weeks. We just had our family there no one else." Taylor looked up.
"Did you know Kelsi was pregnant before you got married?" Jason shook his head no. "Kelsi must think she did something wrong the fact we didn't say anything." Sharpay and Annabelle nodded in agreement.
"What are you guys going to do?" Troy asked.
"We don't really know. We needed help with that and we thought you guys should be involved." Sharpay stood up pulling Annabelle up to. Taylor followed the two to Kelsi's room.
With Gabriella and Kelsi
"Kelsi, it's Gabi can I come in?" Gabriella asked softly as Kelsi unlocked her door. "Thanks." Gabriella walked in and closed the door behind her.
"I'm sorry I never told any of you." Gabriella walked over to Kelsi who was sitting on the edge if her bed and hugged her.
"I'm not mad. I think we were all just in shock out there. It's a lot for us to take in so I have no idea how you must be doing." Kelsi wiped away her tears.
"Jason has been so good to me since I told him. That's the only thing that helps. Do you think the others hate me?" Gabriella looked at her in surprise.
"Of course they don't hate you. We're going to be here for you through this pregnancy and after. Just to let you know this baby better be a girl because otherwise this kid will no nothing but basketball." Kelsi laughed as her door squeaked open.
"Three very surprised best friends allowed in?" Taylor asked as Kelsi smiled. "Sorry about that out there. OMG your pregnant." The girls laughed at Taylor as she walked over to Kelsi and touched her still flat stomach.
"Do you guys hate me?" Kelsi asked them.
"We could never hate you. And I think its cool that you and Jason went ahead and got married the way you wanted to do." Annabelle reassured her.
"If you need me to kick Jason's ass because he got you pregnant just tell me and I'll be more than happy to help." Sharpay told her as they all laughed.
"Thanks." The girls carried on chatting to Kelsi about the baby and the wedding.
With the boys
"how are you doing man?" Zeke asked once the girls left.
"Too be honest, I don't know. I mean I'm happy that we're pregnant and married but worried about what might happen now." Jason explained to them.
"Well I just want to make sure you know that we will support you whatever happens." Troy told Jason as the others nodded in agreement.
"Thanks guys." Jason felt a little better knowing that his friends were there for him.
"Oh god." Ryan said as the others looked at him. "Think about this. Five girls who love shopping for anything so with Kelsi being pregnant they are going to kill us with their shopping and also they are never going to leave you alone Jason because knowing Sharpay she will be making sure you do everything for Kelsi." Troy smiled as Zeke and Chad groaned. Jason just stood there thinking.
"We have to limit there shopping habits." Zeke said thinking of how much money Sharpay usually spent on things when she got excited about something.
"Definitely but we will all have to stick together on this." Troy, Ryan, Jason and Zeke all looked at Chad.
"What?" Troy rolled his eyes.
"You always give in to Taylor when she asks for something." Zeke pointed out.
"Yeah well I can cope with that but shopping I can't so I will stick to this." Chad told them. A few minutes later the girls rejoined them and they all talked about the baby and wedding till the boys went home.
