Not That Simple - Chapter 1
Kay Bennett glanced at the building in front of her, taking in every detail. For a moment she just stood there in silence. This was it. Her senior year of high school. The year that some people said was supposed to be life changing. But she didn't believe a word of it. Just one look at the duo trailing along behind her told her otherwise.
Charity and Miguel, their sickly sweet smiles planted firmly on their faces, were hand and hand as they walked up beside Kay. "Come on Kay," Miguel said, an impatient tone to his voice. "We don't want to be late. We still have to find our classes and everything."
Kay shrugged. "You two go on ahead, I think I see Simone and I'm going to go catch up with her,"
Simone was standing by the entranceway when Kay approuched her. "You look down," she commented.
Kay shook her head; forcing a smile. Afterall, she didn't want to appear to be a weak person. Noone could know all the hurt she felt inside, not even her best friend. She was not used to keeping things from Simone, and it felt funny. However, over the summer the two had grown somewhat distant and she didn't want to burder Simone with her troubles.
"Is it Charity and Miguel?" Simone asked, raising an eyebrow. The two girls made their way into the building, and Kay was hit with the familar feeling of dread. She was an average student at best, and she knew this year she would have to strive extra hard to stay ahead.
Before Kay could spit out an anwser, Reese Durkee- her supposed boyfriend, came up behind her. Her wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered "My Sweet Kay," into her ear.
Kay pretended to have some sort of a coughing fit in order to escape from his embrace. Reese gave her a confused glance at first, but then shrugged. "Must be the dust," he muttered under his breath as he turned to walk towards his pals from the computer club, who were standing by their lockers looking at him in awe. They were so amazed that a nerd like him was able to score a pretty and popular girl like Kay.
Little did they know...
Kay groaned in frustration, slamming her fist against a locker. Jason, a jock with blond good looks strutted past, yelling over his shoulder "How's it going, Kay-Kay?"
"I think he likes you," Simone whispered when he had passed, excitement leaking into her voice.
Kay struggled with the combo for her locker. "I'm not interested in him," she said simply, and that was all there was to it.
Simone's eyes widened in shock. This was so unlike Kay! Her best friend was usually the type to snatch up any cute guy that she could, despite the fact that her heart would always reside with Miguel. Something was definitly up.
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" Kay demanded, as she gathered books into her arms; on her way to class.
There was an uncomfortable silence between them for a moment, then Simone spoke up. "Jason is one of the best looking guys in school. I guess it's just not like you to be so...unmotivated. What happened to all your crazy schemes? You seem changed, somehow. I just can't put my finger on it,"
"I guess I've just...grown up," Kay said with more emotion in her voice than she meant to come out. How true that statement was. If Simone only knew...
But she didn't know. Nobody did, and Kay planned to keep it that way. She would never reveal the hell that had been her life for the past month. She would never reveal all the hurt, and betrayel she felt. Most of all she was scared. It was the fear that haunted her dreams at night, making her wake up shivering and covered with sweat.
The worst part was that she had nobody to talk to about it. So the secret lay buried beneath long locks of raven black hair, and brown eyes with a sad tint that shouldn't be there. She knew she had to tell somebody eventually. In time it would start to show.
In time they would all know that Kay Bennett was pregnant.
