Chapter Eleven

Jessica didn't know it was going to be as hectic as it was. She stood in line on the stage and looked out at all the people watching. She was in the middle of the line, since her last name was B and CeeCee wasn't far behind her. She had put on her gown before she had walked through the people. Mainly to hide her baby bump.

"Nervous?" Casey asked her coming and standing behind her.

"A little. I keep making sure no one can see the bump. I don't want questions and all you know."

"I skipped line to stand with you. Just until they get close to us." CeeCee laughed.

"Thanks CeeCee." Jesse smiled.

"So, is your family here?" Casey asked.

Jesse nodded. "Yeah, mom and siblings are here. Minus Dave though."

"Aww, Jess, I know he'd want to be here if he could."

"I know. I understand and all." Jessica said.

Casey wasn't paying attention though she was looking out into the crowd and smiling.

"Are you listening to me?" Jesse asked.

"Oh yeah. Hey Jess, guess what."

"What?"

"Look over there, by your mom."

Jessica frowned but looked anyway. She smiled.

"Oh my gosh. Dave did come. Eddie too.."

"See, told ya everything would be alright." Casey smiled.

"I can't believe he brought Randy with him." She said. "God."

"Wow..Randy's hot Jess why are you complaining?"

"Because..we're kinda not on good terms. I don't know."

"You're having his baby. Stop being so stubborn."

"I'm a Bautista I can't help it." Jesse laughed.

Dave came over and smiled at his sister.

"Hey babe. Good luck. I'll see you after."

"Alright. I love you."

"Love you too babe."

Casey smiled. "I wish my brother loved me."

The girls stood chatting for a while and then the ceremony started. Casey went back to her place and Jessica got nervous again. But everything went great and Jessica was just relieved when it was over. She left the stage with Casey and talked to some of her friends as she made her way through the crowd and over to her family.

"Oh my god Jessica! Where have you been?" Jessica turned to see Stacie a girl that was in her english class standing smiling at her. Jessica smiled back.

"I heard she was out getting herself pregnant." Came the reply before Jessica could say anything to Stacie.

Jessica looked and glared at Michelle. A stuck up blonde girl who she had never gotten along with. Stacie looked and smiled. She felt very out of place.

"I've been staying with my brother in Washington Stacie." Jesse smiled trying to pretend Michelle hadn't spoken.

"Well, is it true. The famous Miss Jessica got herself pregnant. Before she's married no doubt."

"Who told you Michelle?" Jessica spat back."

Michelle laughed. "So it's true?"

"I'm asking who told you?"

"Dean told me." Michelle said with a smirk.

"How does..." Jessica stopped and looked at Casey.

"How could you Case, you know I didn't tell you because I wanted everyone to know. I trusted you."

Jessica turned and pushed her way through everyone. As she saw her family come into view she started crying. She could hear Casey calling her but she didn't stop. She saw Dave and went straight for him. Instead she walked into someone else. That someone being Randy.

"Hey why are you crying?"

Jesse wiped her tears away. "I'm fine. Can we just go?"

"Sure." Randy said putting his arm around her. He nodded at the others and they all went back to the car.

When they got home, Jessica threw down her things and sat down. Her mom made everyone but Katie scatter and then made drinks for Eddie, Dave and Randy.

"So, what happened?" Randy asked sitting next to her and putting his arm around her. He thought she'd pull away but instead and leaned into him.

"I made the stupid mistake of telling my so called best friend I was pregnant. She told her brother and now Michelle knows."

"Who's Michelle?" Randy and Dave asked together.

"Michelle's some blonde bitch who hates me. I don't know why she found out from Dean."

"Dean told her?" Katie asked. "I'll fucking kill them both."

Eddie laughed.

"Katie, calm down. I only know that she knows and now my life here is basically over."

She leaned closer into Randy.

"Why don't you come back with us?" Dave said.

Jessica looked at him. "Really?"

"Of course. You know Angela and I didn't want you to go in the first place."

"But what about the baby and my doctors appointments and everything? What about mom?"

"Mom's fine with it." Donna said smiling.

"And Randy and I will sort out the doctors appointments and stuff. Right Randy?"

"I'll do everything I have to."

Jessica smiled. "You'd do that after me being such a stubborn bitch?"

"Yeah, I mean I made the baby too right."

"Ok, so I guess I'm coming back." She smiled kissing Randy. "Thanks for being there today."

Dave and Eddie looked at each other and nodded. It seemed their plan had worked after all.
