I am really loving all of the nice reviews that i am getting, and it is really encouraging to me and makes me want to write more. I just haven't had much chance to write lately because my mom wants to get a head start on homeschooling.

Chapter 16

Miley's POV

Jake and I walked into his house hand in hand, but we were both still very worried about the possible results.

He led me to the nearest bathroom in the house, and asked, "Do you want me to some in there with you?"

"No, I can do it on my own," I replied, and took the bag with the test inside it from him. "It would be a little awkward for me if you were watching me." I

"Okay," he said, and headed back to the kitchen to wait. I closed the bathroom door, and read the instructions on the back of the box very carefully.

After I did what the instructions said to do, I walked out of the bathroom with the test in hand. I saw Jake impatiently tapping his fingers on the kitchen counter. When he saw me, his eyes grew huge.

"So, are you pregnant or not?" he asked me with both of his eyebrows raised. "Am I going to be a father?"

"I don't know. It says that you have to wait a minimum of three minutes for results," I stated, holding up the box so he could see where it said that.

"Oh," he said, staring at the clock, counting off the seconds.

One Mississippi

Two Mississippi

Three Mississippi

This is getting so frustrating, having to wait so long for only a little bit of information, I thought to myself.

My thoughts were interrupted my Jake talking.

"Miley, it's been three minutes," Jake shouted hurriedly at me and motioned for me to look at the test.

I looked down at the pregnancy test I was holding in my hands.

Positive!

How would I tell my dad? I used to be my daddy's little girl that could tell him anything, but now? Now what will he think of me? He will probably think that his own daughter is a whore that sleeps around any chance she gets. Wait a second. My dad would never think those kinds of things about me... Or would he? He wouldn't think of me that way, right?

I seriously need help!

Jake interrupted my thoughts yet again.

"Positive or negative?" he wanted to know.

My hands began to tremble, and I dropped the test to the ground in order to cover my face with my hands and cry my eyes out. "I'm pregnant," I said through my sobs. "I am a pregnant whore."

My crying continued, but it gradually got harder and harder.

Jake came up next to me an wrapped his arms around me. "You are not a whore, and never call yourself that ever again," he told me. That made me feel ten times better.

Right now, I am an emotion wreck. Strike that. I am a pregnant emotion wreck. Great. Even worse.

I forced myself to stop crying so we could walk back to my house and tell my dad, as much as I didn't want to.

The quickest way back to my house involved walking past Rico's Surf Shop, so I kind of figured that Jackson would ask me about it, so I knew that I would have to tell him.

When we got to Rico's, Jackson must have noticed my tear stained cheeks, because he said, "Pregnant, huh?"

"Yup," I responded flatly.

"You going to tell dad?"

"Yes."

"When?"

"I was just on my way back to the house to tell him," I answered. "Now stop asking me so many questions!

"Sheesh! I can tell that you're pregnant by your temper and mood swings. You usually aren't that bad," Jackson said, and stuck out his tongue childishly.

"Oh my gosh, Miley! You're pregnant?" I heard a voice from behind me scream. It was the the one and the only.

"Lilly?" Jake and I asked at the exact same time, and turned to face my very visibly pregnant best friend.

"Not so loud," I said in a hushed tone. "I don't want people to hear you."

Oh right," Lilly said apologetically. "I was just so excited."

"It's okay. I don't think that anyone I know heard you, anyway, so it's not a big deal." I looked around the beach just to make sure there was no one I knew. Good, no one I know is hear this early in the morning.

"I heard you, and I can tell everyone," a devilish voice said. I looked around to see where it was coming from, but I didn't see who the voice was coming from. I looked down, and saw the devil himself: Rico.

"What would you do for me not to tell," Rico asked, and winked at me. Ew! That is the second grossest thing that I have ever seen; the first being Uncle Earl floss with the single hair on his head. Bad mental picture!

"Only a complete idiot would make a deal with the devil," I said in a tone tone that was more snobbish than usual. "Anyway, you wouldn't dare."

"You're right, but only because I am a big fan of both you and Jake here." he winked at me once more, and then walked off.

"We better get going and tell my dad before I chicken out," I said to Jake, and laced me fingers in his.

"Yeah, I think you're right," Jake said, and pecked me on the lips.

Author's note!!!!

Thanks for all of the great reviews in the last chapter!

I am wondering about something. This story is on 37 alert lists, yet I usually get less than 10 reviews per chapter now. If people like my story enough to put it on their alert list, they should like it enough to take time and review.

If you want to give me suggestions on how Miley and Jake should tell Miley's dad, please geve some to me!

I would love it if some of you took the time to read one or two of me other stories!

If you want me to read one of your stories, please tell me in a review!

Anyway, I hope you review, because the more reviews I get, the more likely I am to update quickly!

Just so you know, I have written a new story, I just have not posted it yet, so when I do, please check it out!

Luv 'ya!
