Living with my Fate

Summary: Girls like me didn't keep secrets like this. I could never keep a secret longer than a day so everyone might be a little more than surprised that I kept a secret like this for more than nine years.

Chapter Four: Why Not?

I don't ever remember crying so hard in my life. I'd cried for at least three hours straight. I think I cried for a little of two hours straight after my abortion but then I guess I cried myself to sleep. But this time I couldn't sleep and I couldn't stop crying. Spinner had called me at least twelve times and ignored him I was getting somewhat annoyed with him. I closed my eyes tight hoping I'll open them and everything will be just a dream that I had just dreamt this whole day. I re-opened my eyes and I still in my bed and my pillow was soaked.

"Manuela can we talk" My mother said knocking on the door

"Can we please tomorrow I'm really tired" I said

"Manuela please I think…."

"I DON'T WANT TO TALK OKAY!" I yelled turning over on my bed

"Alright but we'll have to talk about this sooner or later" She said and as I heard her footsteps leave I ran to my closet and changed into one of my grade nine outfits when I was labeled as the "The School Slut" and grabbed my coat and climbed out my window I didn't know exactly where I was going but I had to get out of this house.

I was now wearing a tiny tight leather mini skirt and a red strapless shirt and red heels. I walked around for a while thinking of where to go I started to walk farther and farther away from Degrassi and Closer into the city. As I was walking I saw Jimmy and Marco in a store across the street. I quickly tried to hide running behind a tree I peeked around and Jimmy and Marco were coming out the Store. I Started across the street trying to catch the bus that just stopped then I looked back and Jimmy was looking straight at me as soon as I saw his mouth open I jumped on the bus.

When I finally found a seat in the back I was getting stares from men stares I hadn't gotten since grade nine stares I hadn't wanted since grade nine. I quietly sat in the back when a great looking guy walk towards me. He had dirty-blonde hair, broad shoulders, really tall, blue amazing eyes and he sat right next to me.

"Is this seat taking" He asked looking down

"N…O… Um No have a seat" I said stumbling a bit

"So what's a little girl like you doing out here so late dressed like that" The cute Stranger turned and asked

"I'm far from a little girl" I said raising my eye-brow

"Is that so" He said

"Yes very so" I said

"Well How old are you um….sorry didn't catch your name" H asked

"Mann….Um Manuela and I'm 16 I'm practically all grown" I said becoming a little my sexy in my tone

"Oh well Manuela who's practically grown I'm Nick and where are you off to so late" He asked with a smirk on his face that was adorable

"Wherever" I said

"And where exactly is wherever" He asked

"Why so many questions are you an undercover cop or something" I said a little angrily

"No of course not and you wouldn't be doing anything to get yourself in any trouble now would you" He asked

"No just going out to have a good time" I said with a little smile

"Well Good time is my middle name where you headed" He asked with a wicked smile

"Somewhere into town to find like a party or something know any good ones" I asked

"Yeah but it's an eighteen or older party so I'll have to sneak you in" He said

"Great"

"Here's our stop" He said getting up and pulling down the string to stop the bus

"Let's go" I exclaimed with a smile

When we got off the bus we walked a block down the street when we stopped in front of this club it just looked bad from the outside and I could just hear people fighting over the loud music inside.

"You coming Manuela" Nick asked a little ahead of her

"Um…Yeah Let's Party" I said a little unsure
