"Pregnant?" JT asked.
"It happened that night, remember, the party. We got drunk and.." Manny started.
"but didn't I use a condom?" JT said confused.
"they aren't 100% effective, baby."
"don't say that word." he said.
"I can't believe we were so stupid." She added.
"was this your only time?" he asked her.
"yes JT, you took my virginity, what about you, was that your first time?"
"yes, I remember that's when I started to like you." JT said sadly.
"I know that night was so perfect, so magical,"
"and stupid" he added.
"yeah we were, but honey, we can raise the baby together." Manny started.
"Manny we are in 9th grade, I cant take care of myself let alone a kid." JT started to cry. Manny reached over and hugged him, he was going through the same thing she was that morning.
"we'll get through this." Manny said to comfort JT.
"how Manny are parents," JT started.
"they wont have anything to do with us when they find out."
"we are going to have to tell them sometime." Manny added.
"I know I'll get a job." Said JT happily.
"baby you're only 14 no one will hire you."
"yeah, fuck, what are we going to do." JT screamed as he trashed the closet. He needed to get his anger out.
They stayed in that closet for a few hours before finally going home. They told Manny's parents first, then told JT's, they were right they didn't want anything to do with them. JT's parents at least let JT and Manny stay in the basement, and JT's dad offered JT a job at his work. JT would receive full pay for only part-time, only because he was his son, kind of. The parents decided that the basement and job would be good for them they would learn their lesson. Manny's parents finally cooled down and took her to appointments. It was really hard on Manny being 14, pregnant, and still going to school. Poor JT, had it much harder, School, Work, and taking care of Manny. Their lives changed all because of one night.
