Craig sat in the living room looking at the T.V. but not watching he was busy thinking about what had happened after school not with Manny not to say he wasn't worried about her but Ashley had said something that worried him.

*Flashback*

Ashley's Room

Ashley:That was weird what happened to Manny today I hope she's ok

Craig:Yeah I hope she is too let's not talk about that right now

Ashley:What do you want to talk about

Craig:Well for starters when are we going to tell your parents about the you know

Craig said putting his head on her stomach

Ashley:I don't know just not now ok I've messed up a lot before you came here but this time I've really messed up and I've been trying to regain their trust and I know this isn't going to be the best way to do it

Craig:But we can do it

Ashley:NO WE CAN'T!!!

Craig:Ash Listen to me I love you and I will love this baby no matter what

Ashley:Craig did you know that teenage mothers die giving birth sometimes I think we should get an abor...

Craig:NO!!!!

Ashley:Why it would be easier and my dad could take me he lives fifthteen minutes from a clinic and he wouldn't tell my mom until I was ready

Craig:ASH NO OK WE CAN DO THIS!!!!

Ashley simply answered with an ok but something about that ok didn't sound to well like she didn't didn't care what he said she was going to go through with it anyway.

*End of Flashback*

Joey:CRAIG!!

Craig snapped out of his daze and saw that the T.V. was off and that Joey was standing in front of it.

Craig:Oh hey Joey what's up

Joey:I don't know You've been just staring at the T.V. and I called you like twenty times

Craig:Nothing I'm just distracted

Joey:Well Ash is here she's in your room waiting for you she doesn't look to good

Craig:Ok thanks

Craig jumped off the couch and ran upstairs to his room when Craig walked into his room he saw Ashley sitting on his bed crying holding a pillow.

Craig walked over to her and put his arm around her and when he did she was shaking.

Craig:What's the matter?

Ashley:Craig I'm so Sorry I don't know....

Craig:What Ash calm down what are you sorry about

Ashley:I...I...I got an....I got an Abortion

Craig:YOU DID WHAT!!!!

Ashley:I'm sorry...I'm sorry It's just I messed up so much and My dad was really upset and I knew My mom would be and when I told her she was REALLY upset now I'm moving in with my dad he lives in L.A.

Craig:HOW COULD YOU!!!

Ashley started crying harder Joey could hear crying but didn't want to interfer so decided to just chill for a while.

Ashley:Craig I'm really sor....

Craig:ASHLEY GET OUT GET NOW!!!!!

Ashley looked Craig and could see that he was mad and furious but she could see that he was hurt and she never wanted to hurt him like that tears started coming down his face as he kept shouting she felt more tears come down her face as she turned and ran down the stairs pasting Joey who stood there asking her what was wrong but she just contiued running not answering him.

Joey walked up to Craig's room and opened the door to Craig who was competely destroying the room in tears.Joey ran over him trying to grab him trying to get a hold him but after a few minutes of struggling Joey finally got a hold of him and calmed him down.

Craig:She got...got an abortion Ash got an abortion

Joey:Craig I'm really sorry...

A very sleepy Angie walked into the room rubbing her eyes.

Angie:Daddy what's going on what's wrong with Craig

Joey:Nothing Honey go back to bed I'll be there in a minute to tuck you in

Angie:But..

Joey:Just do what daddy saids

Angie:Ok

Angie turned and walked back into her room.
