Sorry it's taken so long to update, I had to finish Sweet Dreams. Now that that one is done I can finally work on this one... Martin and Ruthie aren't in this one very much, but I will write one about them for all of Marthie fans out there!
Chapter 2: Our Secret Is Out
The next day, Simon saw Cecilia pull into the school parking lot in her 2002 Grand Prix. He noticed that she was starting to rest her hand on her stomach more. He waved to her and she came over to the picnic table he was sitting at. He leaned up to kiss her and she sat down next to him.
For the next half an hour before school would start, they discussed ways they could tell their parents. It was very difficult because they couldn't just come out and say it and they also couldn't make it too complicated for anyone. They finally came to a conclusion: There was no good way to do it; they were just going to have to say it no matter what.
"How about we just... casually tell them that we, you know, and that we understand the consequences because we are living with one?" Cecilia suggested.
"Too vague. They might not get it. We need to make it so they understand and don't get really mad."
"Okay, how about..." she paused, realizing that she didn't know how to finish.
They both sighed and she leaned in on his shoulder. He kissed the top of her head. "I love you so much, Cecilia," Simon said quietly.
A tear rolled down her cheek as she dug her head into his chest. "I love you, too, Simon. No matter what happens tonight. How about we just tell over dinner, you know, like Lucy did with Sevannah?"
"Okay, but they might not take it the same way, considering the fact that number one, we are still teenagers and number two, we aren't married yet. Are you okay with that?"
"I just want to tell them and get it over with, Si," Cecilia replied.
"Me, too, Baby. Me, too."
(A/N: I just read it over and yes, to make my story turn out how it needs to, Lucy and Kevin are already married and have Sevannah. Thanks!)
Just then, the bell rang, signaling that school was about to start. They kissed and went off their separate ways to class, promising to see each other at lunch.

That evening, George and Cecilia's mom came over for dinner and sat at the kitchen table with everyone. Simon looked over at Cecilia, who nodded. "Um... Cecilia and I... well, we kind of disobeyed you guys and had..." Simon began. Before he could say sex, he changed it because the twins and Sevannah were all in the room. "...adult relations," he finished quickly, a lump rising in his throat.
George obviously didn't care that there were little kids in the room. "You had sex with my daughter?!" he screamed at Simon. Cecilia dug her head into Simon's chest again.
"Please don't yell, Daddy. You'll scare the baby."
"What baby? She ain't scared," he said gruffly, looking over at Sevannah.
"Not Sevannah, Daddy... our baby," Cecilia finally said.
"WHAT?!" Now he was really angry. "So first you screw my daughter and then you go and get her PREGNANT?!"
"Sir, I..." Simon started.
"Don't you call me Sir!"
"Mr. Smith, I... I'm sorry. I don't know what else to say."
"You will when you never get to see her or the little brat," George said, grabbing his wife and his daughter. "Because we're moving out of this stupid town full of little..."
"George!" Cecilia's mother finally said. "Can't you tell how sorry he is?"
"I don't care how sorry he is! He got my baby pregnant and we're moving. That's final!" He began to drag them both out of the house.
Cecilia looked back at Simon. "I love you," she mouthed. She had tear-stained cheeks as she mouthed that she would call him. Then she was gone. Simon ran upstairs before anyone could say anything. He knew he had made a mistake, but that was no reason for her father to separate them from each other. He cried, and when it finally reached midnight with no call from his girlfriend, cried himself to sleep, something he had not done since he was little...

At school the next morning, he sat on the picnic table, waiting for her. The bell rang, signaling the start of the school day. That's when he realized that she really was gone.
