!JAKE'S POV!
Things were bad after we told everyone about all the problems. There was yelling and crying. I was so confused. When my parents found out, I could see the disappointment in their eyes, but they tried to support me and Sarah the best they could. Alyssa and Audrey's Mom on the other hand, had a hard time handling it. Then Audrey told her about her cutting problem (which I didn't even know anything about) then she fainted. By this time, my mom and dad were "lecturing" me on the subject, Sarah and Kyle were pretty calm, Alyssa was crying harder then she ever has before, I was holding Alyssa telling her to calm down, and Audrey and Kevin were checking on Alyssa's mom. After I had looked around, I tuned back into Mom and Dad. "We are so disappointed in you Jake... You're going to be a teen parent!." "I'll be responsible for my actions." "You aren't acting responsible." "Because you're treating me like a kid!" "Don't yell, son!" I did like I would've done when I was younger. I turned around and ran up the stair into what had been my room. But when I got in there and slammed the door, all there was, was a bunch of junk in there. I couldn't help it, a few tears slipped down .A few minutes later, my dad walked in "Son, I know you're upset, but this is huge. It's going to change your life forever. You didn't even think of the consquences." "I know dad. I guess we were just caught up in the moment." "I know son, but I've been thinking of what your options are Alyssa could get an abortion, u could put the baby up for adoption, or you and Alyssa should get married." "We are definitely NOT going to put it up for adoption and Alyssa's not getting an abortion!" "So you're going to get married?" "I don't know I haven't thought about it" I thought about marrying Alyssa and a part of me wanted to and it sounded like a good option... but then the other part of me was scared. That was a huge commitment... I knew I was going to get married to Alyssa anyways, but now seemed a little bit soon. I mean, sure I love her more then anything; more then anyone could love a person and I would absolutely love to, but we were only 18. I mean that seemed a little young for that kind of commitment.
!SARAH'S POV!
After dinner, I started bawling and pretty soon everyone knew about mine and Alyssa's pregnancies and Audrey's cutting problem. I wasn't yelled at all because it wasn't my fault but Alyssa and Jake didn't get off so easy they were yelled at and as soon as Audrey told her mom about her cutting problem, Mrs. McCool fainted. I felt bad when I watched Mom, Dad, and Jake yell each other. I mean, sure he shouldn't have done it... but I think he's been pretty responsible. After Jake ran upstairs, and then Mom when up after him, Dad started asking me questions about the guy that raped me. It sounded as if he wanted to turn him in... This is the last thing I wanted to do. I just wanted to forget all about it. I answered the questions and after everyone had enough, we went back to the hotel... On the way out, I pulled Jake aside. "So...what did dad talk to you about when u ran up the stairs?" his eyes were red so I knew he had been crying. "Oh. Just what would happen with the baby. He wants me to marry Alyssa." My eyes grew wide. "Marry Alyssa? Are you going to?" He shrugged and went to go check up on Alyssa. Kyle then came out. He wrapped his arms around me. "Sarah, I am so glad we're back together. I was so stupid." He leaned down and kissed me. "Me too" I said after the kiss ended. "Listen, I just want u to know a few things before any ideas might pop their way out there" I started." I do not want to have an abortion and I don't really want to put it up for adoption but if it'll upset you, I will, I don't want u to feel weird around her/him just because your not the biological father. "Sarah, that idea never even crossed my mind. I don't believe in abortions... its murder. I won't feel weird around the kid either. I will act like its father... so I think I am technically his biological father." "That's sweet of you." "I know." "Where did this subject come from anyways?" he asked. "Oh nowhere just my dad had a conversation with Jake and it kind of got me thinking." "Oh, I was afraid that you thought I was acting weird or something."
!KEVIN'S POV!
Mrs. McCool fainting didn't really keep the noise down. About five minutes after she fainted, Jake got into another fight with his parents. He ran upstairs and I heard a door slam. Alyssa just sat there on the couch crying. It all seemed like a nightmare. After everyone calmed down a little, the 6 of us decided to leave. Jake and Kyle looked like they were in deep deep thought. Which I didn't know was possible. I decided to see what was up with them. After I said good night to Audrey and we were safely back in our hotel room, I asked Kyle and Jake what was up. Jake answered first. "Well, my dad said that I should marry Alyssa. I mean, I love her more than breathing... but it's scary. I don't know what I should do." I for one was kind of shocked I had never even thought about marriage...at all! "Wow...that's a pretty big step! What're you going to do?" Jake shrugged. "I don't know, man. I'm seriously considering it. I mean, I know that's the best thing to do... but it's so scary." "Well, I wouldn't be too scared if I were you, I HIGHLY doubt that u and Alyssa will break up and I highly doubt even more you'll find someone else to marry." "You've got a point there... should I ask her to marry me?" He paused. "That sounds so scary... but I do like the sound of Alyssa baker." he grinned. "Well, I think you should but that's just me. It's really up to you." I shrugged. "I really don't want to get involved. It's your business," "Well good luck, and make sure you make it really romantic because I bet Alyssa will only get proposed to once. , so what's up with you Kyle?" Kyle looked up. "I don't know... I'm just scared about having a... kid." I nodded. "I would be to." "And today Sarah asked me how I would feel around the baby since I wasn't the biological father. I hadn't really thought about it. I told her not to get an abortion and not to put it up for adoption but I just don't know how I feel. "That's a tough one, man." "Yeah... tell me about it."
!AUDREY'S POV!
Kevin was nursing me back to health. I forgot about how amazing he was. I absolutely love him. We went with Jake, Sarah, Alyssa, and Kyle over to Chicago to go see out parents and tell them how everything is going ((the obvious)) I was planning on telling Mom about my cutting problem because I felt she needed to know. After dinner, everything came out. Everyone found everything and when Mom found out about me cutting, she fainted. I felt horrible. She came too after awhile and said that we would talk about it later. I was really proud of Alyssa, though because she told Mom and it wasn't too awful. After much chaos, we all finally went back to the hotel. I was glad to get into a room with just my sister and my best friend. "Wow guys, that was rough." The two were quiet and just nodded. "How are you guys doing?" They both mumbled and kind of nodded. "Do ya'll want to talk about anything?" Sarah spoke up first. "I'm scared that Kyle isn't going to like this baby because he's not the biological father." "Where did you get that theory from?" "I don't know... he's just been acting kind of weird." "Sarah, don't think that way. He'll love the baby because he loves you." Sarah half smiled and nodded and Alyssa and I hugged her. "What about you Alyssa?" She sighed. "Well, I heard Jake and his dad talking and she gave him three choices. I can get an abortion, put the baby up for adoption, or me and Jake need to get married." "I'm assuming he chose marriage." "Yeah, but... I don't know. Marriage sounds really scary... But I wouldn't mind getting married to Jake." She smiled and sighed again. "Aw, Alyssa. You and Jake are meant for each other. You're going to get married no matter what... at least I think so. Just think about it this way, the sooner you get married the closer you'll be to your 50th anniversary." Alyssa grinned now. "You do have a point there."
!ALYSSA'S POV!
After all the chaos at the Baker's house, and finding out that Jake and I were probably going to get married, I was glad to be back at the hotel. We all went to our rooms; we were too tired to do anything else. When Audrey, Sarah, and I got back to the room, we talked for a while. Sarah was scare that Kyle wouldn't love the baby as much since he wasn't the biological father, but I had a huge decision to make! I overheard Jake and his mom talking and she wants Jake and me to get married. I have no clue what to do. I tried to seem like it was no big deal and that I was so ready to marry Jake, but in reality I was so scared! I mean, I'm only 18 and marriage is a HUGE commitment. I asked Audrey and Sarah "do you think I should marry Jake?" "I think you should." "Really? I mean it's a big commitment! And I'm only 18!" "Alyssa, who else are you planning on getting married to?" "True..." I sighed . I was so confused and I couldn't talk to Jake about it, he didn't know I knew. "Will you do me a favor you guys? Will you talk to your boyfriends and see if Jake has told them anything?" "Sure!" "Thanks, wow guys I'm so scared right now its not even funny." Around midnight, we got a call from the boys, they wanted to tell us goodnight. When Jake asked to talk to me, I was too scared to speak. "Goodnight honey I love you!" Jake said sweetly "goodnight I love you too." I stuttered "I love you." "I love you too, see you in the morning." I had a lot of thinking to do!
!KYLE'S POV!
I was so glad to get out of the Bakers house after so much drama. The guys and I talked for awhile about Jake getting married, and I really think he was going to go through it. But I was thinking about Sarah and the baby. We were going to be such young parents. I was pretty scared too. I mean wed be 19 year old parents. Imagine that, it's pretty scary I don't know hardly anything about kids. This was just sprung on me I mean I barely know how to change a diaper. Well... I DIDN'T know how to change a diaper. I never had to do that. Would I be a good Dad? I was starting to doubt myself... What if I was such a horrible dad, Sarah and my kid turned out to be some drug dealer or something. I hated to think these things. I decided to call Sarah. "Hello?" "Hey baby. I'm sorry to wake you up, but I was just thinking about things and stuff... and what if I turn out to be a horrible Dad... and the kid becomes a drug dealer or something." Sarah let out a small laugh "honey, its late you're probably just tired, why don't you get a good nights rest and talk about it in the morning, I bet you're going to be a great dad anyways." I smiled at the sound of her voice. "All right... you're probably right. I should probably go to bed. I'll see you in the morning. Good night... I love you." "I love you too." "I think Jake and Kevin want to talk to Alyssa and Audrey too, so u can hand the phone to one of them." After we all said our goodnights, we all climbed in bed but I highly doubt any of us fell asleep fast, I was thinking about being a dad and poor Jake, he had marriage on his mind! Uh I needed sleep.
