"Bye sweetie, I'll miss you like crazy." Kendra said hugging me really tight. Mom and Dad were leaving for 3 months, and they were going to Europe for some business stuff.
I was used to it now. Ever since I turned 16 and could drive, they have been going on longer trips, and they were getting more frequent. I didn't mind though, I liked the house to myself and the quietness. Plus I could have friends over whenever I wanted.
"Bye daddy." I whispered to my father as I was hugging him goodbye. I was in my winter jacket, and we were outside the house. Isaac honked the horn, telling my parents that they need to get going.
"Have a good flight!" I yelled out to them when they were getting into the car. Once the car was going down the driveway, I turned and walked back into the house.
Once I was inside, I could smell Inez wonderful roast chicken. Then it hit me. I ran up the stairs, and into the bathroom that was closest, and puked my guts out. When I was done, I flushed the toilet and walked out. I went into my bathroom, and brushed my teeth.
I walked downstairs, and grabbed my jacket. In the kitchen Inez was bustling around.
"When will dinner be ready?" I asked.
"About 6:30 Miss. Block." She replied.
"Thanks, I'm going over to Claire's, she might come over." I walked out the back door and pulled my jacket on. It had snowed the night before, but our gardeners already shoveled all of the snow off the walkways.
I opened the door to the guesthouse. "Hello, anyone here?" I yelled.
"Up here Mass." Claire yelled up from her room. I walked past the kitchen where Mrs. Lyons was making dinner.
"Hey Mrs. Lyons." I said to her.
"Hey Mass, did your parents leave today?" She replied, wiping her hand on the dish towel.
"Yeah, is it okay if Claire comes eat dinner with me, that way I'm not alone. Inez made a feast, and I couldn't eat it alone."
"Sure sweetie, we were just having a casserole, so I think Claire would be happy not to eat it." She started laughing, and to not seem rude, I smiled, and told her I was going up to Claire's room.
I took the steps two at time, and walked down the hallway till I got to Claire's room. She was walking around her room, and Cam was sitting on the bed criss-cross smiling.
"Hey lovebirds, what's up?" I asked.
"Ugh trying to find my sock, it was somewhere around here, then Cam decided to tickle me and stole my sock!" Claire was running around her room by now. I looked over at Cam, and he pulled up her sock when she wasn't looking. I started laughing and Claire shot a look at me.
"What?" She said putting her hands on her hips.
"Kuh-laire, relax, it's a sock. I came over wondering if you wanted to come to dinner. Your mom said it was okay, and of course Cam, you could come. In fact, I'll call up the entire PC." I was starting to texting people, when Claire said, "Sure Mass, but can you invite some of the guys that way Cam isn't around a bunch of girls?"

"I'll leave you two to your business; I have to go tell Inez that we are having a dinner for 8 more. Oh, and bring your sleepover stuff." I waved goodbye to them and walked down the stairs where I said goodbye to the rest of the Lyons, and walked back over to the kitchen.
"Inez, make sure you set the table for 10, the girls are coming over with the dates." I told her.
"Okay, good thing I made a lot." Inez replied.
"I'm going to go out for an hour or two." I grabbed my car keys and walked to the garage. I actually had two cars, an Escalade and a BMW. Today since it was only me, I decided that I would use my BMW.
I got into the car, and started it. I plugged in my IPod and my music started to blare through the speakers. I drove down the driveway, and drove to the highway. I decided that I would go east.
I drove on the highway for about 20 minutes and then got off at the next exit. It didn't take me to long to find a gas station. I parked my car, and made sure that it was locked. I walked in as if I owned the place, and walked up the aisles till I found what I was looking for.
A pregnancy test. I grabbed 3 of them and walked up to the counter. It was some old guy who was giving me weird looks. He wrung me up, and I gave him $50 and told him to keep the change and quickly put the tests into my oversized bag.
I walked out of the gas station and into my car. I took a deep breath in and drove home.
When I got home, I called to Inez that I was home. It was almost 4 o'clock. People wouldn't show up till 6. I already called Brian and he said he wouldn't miss the dinner party.
I walked up to my room and looked at myself in the mirror. It's been about a month since I slept with Derrick. The only one who knew it was Claire and that was because she came up to my room, after it happened and I told her everything.
Thankfully she hadn't told Dylan, and Derrick made no attempt to break-up with her. She didn't know that he slept with me, and that I might be pregnant.
It's been hard not to talk to him. Since he's my best friend's boyfriend, wherever she went he went too. He sat with us at lunch, and when there was a party, he was there.
I went into my bathroom, and pulled out on pregnancy test. I pulled it out of the box and went to the toilet. Soon I put the cap on it, and waited for 3 minutes. While waiting I decided to take the other 2.
Right when I was finished peeing on the 2nd stick, it was time for me to look at the 1st test. I took a big breath and looked at the test. There was a little pink plus.
"Damn it. DAMN IT MASS!" I yelled at myself. I took the other test, and I was smart to make sure that they weren't the same brand test. They all told me I was pregnant.
I had no idea what to do next. I took out my phone and called Derrick.
"Hello?" Derrick said when he picked up the phone. I heard Dylan in the background asking him who it is, and was giggling.
"Derrick, it's Massie, I need you to come over her quick, without Dylan, it's…" Tears started to fall from my face.
Derrick must have known I was crying because he said he would be over there in a few minutes. I went into my bedroom, and lay down in my bed. I couldn't help the tears that were falling down my face. I had brought the 3 pregnancy tests over with me.
I heard the doorbell ring, and Inez saying hello to Derrick. Then 2 seconds later, Inez said "Miss. Block, Mr. Harrington is here to see you." she said through the intercom.
"Let him up to my room." I replied into the intercom. I heard Inez say something to Derrick, and then he was running up the stairs, and ran into my room.
"Mass, are…Mass what's wrong? Mass? Talk to me." He came over and bent down so he could see me in my face. I took my hand out of the covers and handed him the three pregnancy tests.
"What the…" Then he knew. He saw the pink signs. He got up and got under the covers with me. He wrapped his arms around me while I cried into his chest.
After maybe an hour of crying I had no more tears left to spill.
"Mass, I'm so sorry." Was what he said once I was done crying.
"Derrick, this is your baby." I said to him. I looked up and stared into his brown eyes.
"I know, come on, you should start to get ready, people will start to come in an hour." He slid out of the bed and brought me with him. His arms never once left me. He helped me stand up.
I was so weak from crying that I needed his support to even stand up.
"Will you help me?" I asked him.
"Of course, whatever you need me to do." He said. His hand came up to my face, and wiped away the last of my tears. He sat me on the bed, and walked into my bathroom. He came out with a wet washcloth, and wiped my face off. I felt like such a little kid.
"What are you wearing tonight? Do you know?" He asked, walking into my closet.
"It's laid out, do you see it?" I called out to him.
"Yeah, it looks really nice." He came out with his arms full of clothes. He laid them down on the bed, and helped me stand up. I was just going to change in front of him. I didn't care at this point; I slept with him after all.
I took off my jeans that I was wearing and pulled on the skinny jeans that I picked out earlier. Derrick helped me take off my sweatshirt that I was wearing and pulled my purple, silk, halter top on.
He took my hand and walked me to my bathroom, and I sat down on my stool. I started to put on make-up, while he just stood behind me, watching me the whole time. Once I was done with my make-up it didn't look as if I was crying for an hour straight.
I decided that I was just going to pin my hair up, and in the end it looked great. When I was done, I got back up and walked into my room and then into my closet where I picked out a pair of black stilettos.
When I stepped out of the closet Derrick said, "Wow Mass, you look amazing."
"Thanks come on, we better get downstairs, and people will be coming in about 15 minutes." I said. He walked over to me and grabbed my hand. We walked down the stairs and into the living room.
We had a 60' TV, but we didn't turn it on. He sat next to me, and looked at me.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to keep it, or give it up for adoption?" I asked him.
"Mass, I want what you want, if you want to keep it, I will pay child services, and if you decide to give it up, I will be right next to you handing my baby over to the couple that you choose." He said.
"I want you to be part of this decision; it is after all your baby too. I don't think that I could give it up. You?" I was just so confused by this whole thing.
"I want to keep it Mass, I want to be this baby's father, but that's my opinion, you don't have to listen to it." I knew that so much was going through his mind.
"What about Dylan?" It was a touchy subject, but I had to know.
"Mass, I don't know how you feel, but I love you. I need to break-up with her. One, because she will dump me when she find out, and then I want to be with you, and the baby." He kissed me on the cheek, and then the doorbell rang.
We got up and I walked to the front door. I opened it up, and there was Claire and Cam.
"Hey guys, come on in, Derrick's here." I said. Claire looked at me, I gave her a talk-to-you-about-it-later-and-you-better-not-bring-it-up-tonight look.
I walked with them into the living room, and Cam went to go talk to Derrick, and Claire turned to me.
"I will tell you later, just not now, and not here." I told her.
"Okay, but we have to tell Dylan that we came before Derrick, or she might get suspicious." She said.
Then the doorbell rang, and I went to go answer it, and there was Alicia with Josh, Kristen with Dempsey, and Brian. Alicia and Josh, and Kristen and Dempsey where holding hands, and they walked in and into the living room. Brian still stood outside, looking a bit nervous.
"Hey, come on in." I said to him. He walked in and looked around.
"Hey, you look really pretty tonight." He said to me smiling. I smiled back and closed the door.
"Thanks, come on, we are all in here." I said and walked towards the living room with Brian right on my heels. Everyone was standing around and chatting with people. Inez came up and took Brian's jacket. Since he was new here, I decided that I would introduce him to everyone.
Soon Dylan showed up, and we started dinner. Everything went planned, and Derrick kept looking at me and my stomach all night. When it was time for the guys to leave, Derrick asked Dylan if he could talk to her.
When they were walking out he gave me a smile, and the look in his eye said I-will-call-tomorrow-we need-to-talk-some-more.
When Dylan came back in, she had tears streaming down her face, and we all knew that Derrick broke up with her.
Derrick (9:58)- I had to do it, please make sure that shes going to be alright.
I looked at the text and turned off my phone. I had to go and take care of my friend who just got dumped by her boyfriend who was in love with me and was the father of my child.
