Maeve hadn't stopped thinking about her date with Otis. It was supposed to be tomorrow night and all she wanted was for today to come to an end just so tomorrow could start already. But of course, today was supposed to be one of the longest days ever. Her group for health class, along with Otis' group had to stay back after school because neither group had gotten any of their assignments done. Everything with Jean and general drama that seemed to envelope them wherever they went had started interfering with Maeve and Otis' schoolwork. Who would've thought, huh?

Maeve was getting things from her locker while she and Aimee waited for Otis.

"I still don't get why you have to stay back for health class." Aimee said.

"I told you, Aimes, we're the only two groups that are always behind on our assignments. Mr. Hendricks is punishing us." Maeve said, shoving books into her bag.

"What's the big deal with being behind on your assignments? You have bigger things to worry about right now." Aimee said.

Maeve smiled at Aimee being Aimee. Even though she wasn't supposed to, she'd told Aimee about Jean. If she was being honest, she needed someone to vent to about how overwhelming everything got sometimes. "Yeah but I don't think Mr. Hendricks cares about that." Maeve said.

"Why not though? Aren't teachers supposed to be interested in what's going on with us? They keep going on about how much they're here for us and how what we feel is valid. But somehow it isn't that important when it comes to assignments." Aimee said.

"I mean you kind of have a point but I don't think my boyfriend's mum is pregnant with his ex-girlfriend's dad's baby is a legitimate excuse for failing a class." Maeve said, shutting her locker.

"It would've been if we were on a teen drama. I've never seen a single character attend class, yet none of them ever get punished for it." Aimee said, she looked like she was honestly confused about why they weren't been treated like the characters of a teen drama on the CW.

"It's almost as if trashy TV with 26-year-olds playing teenagers isn't an accurate representation of real life." Maeve said, feigning surprise.

"Hey." Otis said, hugging Maeve from behind.

"Hey." Maeve said, turning around in Otis' arms and kissing him.

"You guys are really cute." Aimee said with a smile.

"I know." Maeve said with a huge smile, still looking at Otis.

Otis smiled back at Maeve, pulling her in for another quick kiss. "What were you guys talking about before I came?" He asked.

"About how your mum being pregnant with Ola's dad's child would've been an acceptable excuse for you failing health class, if this was a teen drama." Aimee said. She spoke with such an air of nonchalance that it took Maeve a second to realise what had just happened.

"You told her?" Otis asked, taking a step back from Maeve.

"Yes but it's only because she's my best friend and I needed someone to talk to." Maeve said.

Otis didn't say anything, he just stared at Maeve. He wasn't sure how he felt about this.

"For what it's worth, I haven't told anyone, except Steve. I kind of let it slip while I was rambling the other day but don't worry he won't tell anyone." Aimee said.

Maeve shot Aimee a look.

"I was trying to help!" Aimee said, raising her hands defensively.

"It's okay, Aimee. Please don't tell anyone else." Otis said with a sigh.

"I'm sorry baby." Maeve said, giving Otis a kiss on his cheek.

Otis didn't know what to say, he just stood there and blushed.

"So has your mum told Ola's dad about the baby?" Aimee asked.

"What?" Jakob asked.

Aimee, Otis and Maeve turned around completely in sync. Jakob was standing behind them with Ola.

"Jakob, what are you doing here?" Otis asked.

"What did she just say?" Jakob asked.

"Aimee was.." Otis tried to come up with something to cover up what had just happened but he was drawing a blank.

"Is Jean pregnant with my child?" Jakob asked.

"Yes." Otis said, finally.

"And all of you know about this but she didn't tell me?" Jakob asked.

"She wants to, she just didn't know how to." Otis said.

"Is this why you've been asking me about babies?" Jakob asked, angrily turning to Ola.

"Well, yeah." Ola said.

"You knew about this and thought it was a better idea to beat around the bush instead of telling me?" Jakob asked.

"I wanted to let Jean tell you, I just wanted to get a feel of how you would react." Ola said.

"I can't believe this." Jakob said, starting to walk away.

"Dad!" Ola called out after him.

"Go to class Ola, I need to go right now." Jakob said, the rage evident in his voice.

"Thanks a lot!" Ola screamed walking away from Otis.

"I'm sorry!" Aimee said.

"It's okay Aimes, you couldn't have known. We'll see you after class." Maeve said.

Maeve and Otis practically power walked after Ola. They didn't even notice that Jackson, Ruby and Isaac were already in class.

"Ola, listen.." Otis began.

"Hey everyone!" Mr. Hendricks said walking into class.

Everyone collectively sighed. Not a single person in that room wanted to be there.

"I know this isn't what you wanted but look at it as dedicated time for catching up. This will also teach you to take health class seriously. I'm going to head out, I'll be back to check in on you guys in a little bit." Mr. Hendricks said, walking out.

"Ola!" Otis said, as soon as Mr. Hendricks had walked out of the room.

"How can you be this irresponsible!" Ola said, raising her voice.

Everyone in the room was now staring at Ola and Otis.

"I agree! How could you be so irresponsible?!" Isaac asked.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Maeve asked, turning to Isaac.

"You know what I'm talking about and the truth is, it's very irresponsible." Isaac said.

"I can't believe I'm saying this but I agree with Isaac, it is quite irresponsible and I don't think you guys are ready." Ruby said.

Otis, Ola,Maeve and Jackson stared at Isaac and Ruby with utter confusion ethed on their faces. Maeve thought of addressing this but decided against it because she honestly did not give a fuck about what Isaac and Ruby had to say at the moment.

"It wasn't Otis' fault, I told Aimee." Maeve said.

"It wasn't your place to do that. It's not your secret to tell." Ola said.

"What do you mean it's not Maeve's secret to tell?! If anyone doesn't have a right in this situation it's you." Isaac said, turning to Ola.

"Isaac, I don't really know you but from what I've heard, you have a thing for jumping into things that have nothing to do with you. I have zero patience for any of that shit right now, so I would suggest you back the fuck off." Ola said.

Isaac visibly shrunk a little. He didn't really know Ola but he was kind of scared of her right now.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told Aimee but at least now you don't have to be the one to tell your dad." Maeve said.

"Why would Ola tell her dad that Maeve is pregnant? Is this a throuple kind of thing? I thought you were dating that Lily girl?" Ruby asked.

"WHAT?!" Maeve asked, raising her voice.

"You don't have to hide it anymore Maeve. But I meant it when I said it was irresponsible. It's bad enough that you got pregnant but that too with Otis' baby? Why would you do that to yourself?" Isaac asked.

"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" Otis asked, beginning to walk toward Isaac.

Maeve hadn't ever seen Otis look this angry. If they weren't in such a shitty situation right now, she would've pointed out how cute she found it. But right now wasn't the time.

"It means that Maeve should not be having children with someone like you." Isaac said.

"So she should be having children with someone like you?" Otis asked.

"She shouldn't be having kids at all, she's like 10. Also this is very weird power struggle that's going on between you two, needs to stop it's freaking me out. Also, Isaac, I don't know you and beyond a point I don't care about this situation but you being creepily obsessed with Maeve needs to stop. I feel like I'm on an episode of YOU." Ruby said.

It was weird but Ruby's little rant had managed to quiet down the room, something no one else had managed.

"If Maeve isn't pregnant, who is?" Jackson asked, speaking up for the first time. Everyone had lowkey forgotten he was even in the room because of how silent he was.

"My mum is." Otis said.

"So what does this have to do with Ola?" Jackson asked.

"Her father is the father of mum's baby." Otis said.

"Wow. Didn't you Ola and you date?" Jackson asked.

"Yes." Otis said, cringing a little.

"I feel like I'm on an episode of Gossip Girl, I kind of like it." Ruby said.

"Anyway. I'm not pregnant and even if I were, it wouldn't be any of your business." Maeve said, shooting Isaac a look.

"Can you guys just not tell anyone about this? I don't want this to spread and for it be weird for my mum or for us." Otis said.

"Yeah of course." Jackson said.

"Yeah, I'm just glad it wasn't Maeve." Ruby said with a laugh which stopped the second Maeve shot her a look.

"Isaac?" Maeve asked.

"Yeah sure whatever." Isaac said.

"What was your dad even doing here?" Otis asked, turning to Ola.

"He wanted to take me out to lunch because of "weird" I'd been acting." Ola said.

Otis and Ola began laughing, defusing the tension in the room.

The rest of the day just went in everyone discussing the drama and everything that had happened. It felt like a weird version of the Breakfast Club where instead of discussing their insecurities, everyone was talking about how complicated their families were. It was kind of nice.

"It's been two hours. Hope you all got some work done. You're free to go." Mr. Hendricks said.

Everyone rushed out of the room, as much as they loved the bonding session, everyone hated being in school longer than they had to.

"So that was something." Otis said, as he walked out of the school with Maeve.

"Can you believe they thought I was pregnant?" Maeve asked.

" I mean a lot of their weird behavior now makes sense." Otis said.

"Yeah I guess it does." Maeve said.

"I'm kind of glad Jakob knows, it means we can actually go back to our normal lives." Otis said.

"Yeah I guess." Maeve said.

"The only thing getting me through this is knowing we're going on our date tomorrow." Otis said.

"I'm really excited." Maeve said, looking like she was glowing.

"Me too. I love you, thank you for staying through all this insanity." Otis said.

"Always." Maeve said, pulling Otis in for a kiss.
