Jordan was driving Angela home after school. She had been very quiet and was constantly chewing her nails.

"Ang, you're really quiet..Is everything like.. okay?" he asked her concerned.

Angela slowly shook her head and looked at Jordan with a worried expression. "I found out what was wrong with Rayanne.." she said quietly.

Jordan sighed "Well, what is it this time?" he said pulling over and switching off the engine.

"Jordan, she's pregnant..That's why she's been so odd lately..Thing is, It's Shanes"She said her voice slightly strained.

Jordan closed his eyes and lay his head back against his seat. "Aw shit..He won't cope with that news.."

Angela frowned and glared at him "Shane won't cope? What about Rayanne, she's the one who has to deal with it Jordan! I can't believe that you'd worry for him, if he had used a condom then this wouldn't have happened"

Jordan frowned back and scratched his head " Look, it took both of them to be irresponsible..And the way I see it, Rayanne is always putting herself in dumb situations like that, she's known Ang, you know this.." He leant forward and tried to put his arm around her but she quickly pushed him away.

"Jordan Catalano, you can be such a fucking jerk sometimes, Rayanne is like my best friend, do you really think I'm going to sit here and listen to you badmouth her?.Jesus!" She turned her head away from him and looked angrily out of the window.

Jordan rested his hands on the steering wheel , frown lines covering his beautiful face. "Yea and Shane's my best friend and he has a right to know about this"

Angela shook her head "You can't say anything, I promised Rayanne I wouldn't tell anybody" Jordan looked at her shocked

"You told me Angela, and I can't not say anything to Shane, I don't like lies..Never have"

Angela looked at him in dis-belief "Jordan I'm asking you not to tell Shane, please?"

Jordan looked back at her, his face softening a little "Look, this is one thing I can't and won't do for you..I'm sorry"

Angela scowled and got out of the car.

Jordan sighed and followed her. "Angela wait..Don't like, be like this.."

Angela turned round to face him, her eyes moist from angry tears "If you tell him Jordan, it'll end my friendship with Rayanne.."

Jordan shrugged "And if I don't tell Shane I'll lose him as well..It's a no win situation Angela ,for both of us. Rayanne should have told him herself.."

Angela looked to the floor and swallowed, the lump in her throat hurting. "I'm going indoors, I'll see you tomorrow.." she said coldly.

Jordan rubbed his neck awkwardly "I'm working for my dad tomorrow.."

Angela didn't look at his face "Well, I'll see you whenever then...Bye"

Jordan watched her walk away from him, his pride preventing him from running after her. He got back into his car and slammed his hands on the steering wheel "Dammit" he sneered under his breath.

Angela sat in her bedroom, hot angry tears fell from her eyes. This is the first major disagreement we've had since we got together. Why can't he understand that Shane musn't know? she thought.

She picked up the phone and dialled Rayannes number, relaying in her head how she was going to let her friend know that she'd betrayed her confidence.

The phone rang a few times until she heard Rayanne's shaky voice answer "Hello?"

Angela closed her eyes and swallowed "Rayanne it's me..I'm sorry.." she started crying.

Rayanne didn't say anything for a while and then asked "Angela? What have you done?"

She wiped her nose with her sleeve and cleared her throat "I've um..I told Jordan..Ray I didn't think he'd say anything but he said he's going to tell Shane..I'm so sorry, it's a mess, we had a huge fight and everything.."

Rayanne remained silent taking in what her friend had just told her.

"I don't care that you've had a fight with Jordan Angela, I trustedyou not to say anything not even to Jordan, God my own mother doesn't even know yet, I'm not sure what to do myself and now Shane's going to know..Thanks Angela, thanks for nothing!" she hung up the phone in anger.

Angela kept the reciever to her ear, guilt of her betrayal consumed her and she felt sick What have I done? she thought.

Jordan sat in his car outside Shanes house. He was having mixed feelings about telling him what he had just found out.

She's gonna be so pissed at me, but Shane deserves to know..Fuck, if it were my kid I'd wanna know he thought as if he were trying to reassure himself that he was doing the right thing.

His mind kept going back to Angela and the hurt on her face. I love her but she can't expect me to keep this to myself, Jesus I knew something would go wrong somewhere down the line, things can never be like, simple for me.

He rested his head on the steering wheel contemplating whether or not to get out of the car, just then he heard a tapping on the window and looked up to see Shane smiling down at him.

"Hey Catalano dude, what the fuck are you doing here man?" he said, pleased to see his friend. Jordan kept a sombre face.

"Hey Shane, you better get in here a sec, I need to tell you something" he leant over and opened the passenger door. Shane climbed in still smiling at him.

"So shoot bro, and quit looking so serious man, you're freaking me out.." he said shoving Jordans arm.

Jordan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he brushed the hair away from his eyes and looked at his friend "I think you need to hear this and you're not gonna like it dude"

Shane frowned at Jordans words and said in a low voice "So shoot man, I'm all ears"
