Soon she heard the sound of her front door opening and his steps on the stairs. She heard her bedroom door open but she didn't turn to greet him. He walked over to her quietly and wrapped his arms around her flat stomach, not knowing that the thing she was about to tell him would change his world forever. He spun her around and kissed her so fast that he didn't notice the tears that streaked her face until he tasted them in her kiss. He pulled back and noticed the tears that glistened in her eyes. He used the pad o his thumb to wipe them away and then he asked her the question that he dreaded the answer to.

"What's wrong Bella?" He never wanted to know that she was hurting so badly that she was reduced to tears, it broke his heart and the look on her face as she began to talk broke his heart even more,

"Wildcat I need to tell you something," she whispered against his mouth.

"You're not breaking up with me, are you Bella," he replied feeling the tears well up in his own eyes.

"No I think it's going to be the other way around," Gabriella sobbed.

"Gabriella there is nothing you could say or do to make me break up with you," Troy said, taking her hand in his own.

"I'm pregnant," she stated and he stared at her, the shock written all over his face.

"Could you repeat that please?" he asked and then he fainted, right there on her bedroom floor.

"Okay that went well," she mumbled o herself as she went to get a damp cloth for his head. Troy awoke a few minutes later to Gabriella dabbing his forehead with a flannel. "Hey," she whispered.

"Pregnant with a baby?" he asked and she nodded looking ashamed. Pregnant at seventeen was not how she had planned her life.

"What are we going to do?" she asked scared.

"I guess were going to have a baby," Troy replied and before she could utter a response he kissed her.
