Pregnant.
A small eight-lettered word that will change a person's life forever. It's bad enough that I'm having the child, but the fact that the father is my best friends boyfriend. That sure makes me feel good. It's not as though we didn't use protection… it just didn't protect us as well as it should of.
It was an accident; I'm going to admit it. My grandma had died after six-month in hospital with cancer and we had been pretty close, so I went to Martha's because her apartment is the closest to mine but my dumb car broke down so I went to Jason's and he saw I had been crying and asked me what was wrong…
Flashback (No P.O.V)"Dumb car." Kelsi Nielson scowled as she hurriedly use the last of the gas to park on the side of the road. She blinked up at the sky and sighed, it was such a beautiful day but it had been the worst day for her, ever. She glanced over at the two apartment blocks staring opposite her. With a sigh, she made her way up the elevator and knocked lightly on Jason's room.
It was early, about eight in the morning so it looked like Jason had just gotten up. His hair was rumpled and he was wearing nothing but a T-Shirt and boxers. He blushed from his temple to his toes. He shut the door and reappeared a moment letter, wearing pants. "Kels! Hey! What are you doing here?"
"Um, my car broke down…" Kelsi laughed nervously, feeling herself blush along with him. "I was wondering if I could use your phone since I left my cell at my mom's…" Her voice trailer off, she bit her lip and looked away.
"Yeah, of course you can use it." He took a step backwards to let her in; he then noticed her puffy eyes. "Kels!" He sounded alarmed. "What's wrong? What's happened?" He gently put an arm around her and guided her to the sofa.
"Um, well you know my grandma?" Kelsi asked, of course he did, they all knew Kelsi's grandma, she was the sweet old lady who had dished out thousands of cakes, brownies and cookies to them in the past, she was the sort of grandma who knitted clothes for you and smelt of shortbread and played Bingo. "She died…"
Jason's eyes widened in shock. "Oh… oh!" He exclaimed. "God, Kels, I am so sorry… well I know I've got nothing to be sorry for… but… you know what I mean, right?" He suddenly looked worried.
Kelsi had to laugh then. "Yeah Jase, I know what you meant!" She smiled and he sighed in relief and gently squeezed her hands. She tried not to notice how good it felt, she couldn't be in love with her best friends boyfriend. No way.
"It'll be okay, it might not feel it now, but it will!" Jason insisted. "You have to look forward." He jumped up and returned a moment later with a coffee; Kelsi couldn't help notice that he was a little bit closer.
"Thanks." She sighed, wiping her forehead. "I guess I knew she was going to die but it's still a little bit of a shock!" She shrugged and smiled up at Jason. "Thanks, for it all." She looked right into his eyes.
He looked right back and then Kelsi couldn't help it but the tears started to fall. He didn't look alarmed; he just put an arm around and held her close, literally being the shoulder to cry on. "Don't worry." He looked down at her at the moment she looked up.
Their lips accidentally brushed but instead of pulling away, they held on, forcing the kiss to be deeper. "We cant… we cant do this…"
"No we cant." But they continued to kiss even so. Jason knew it was wrong, he was cheating on his girlfriend and he had never cheated on a girlfriend before but even though it was wrong, it felt right.
"Martha…" Kelsi hated herself right then and knew she should push him away but she knew, deep down, she didn't want to and was glad he didn't either. She was going to feel so guilty later on in the day.
Kelsi gently put her arms around his neck and lightly cupped his cheek in one hand. His hands ran through her hair, smooth and gentle.
You can guess what happened next.
End Of Flashback (Kelsi's P.O.V)The next time I saw Jason, we couldn't look at each other. That was a month ago. Martha needn't have found out, it was a simple mistake, he just felt sorry for me, it wouldn't have mattered at all, but then this happened.
I stared down at the pregnancy test, the green plus to show that I was pregnant. I needed to talk to someone. Someone who wouldn't judge me. I rang the first person I thought of. Gabriella, she promised to be over in ten minutes.
"So, what's up Kels?" She looked concerned and I knew why. My hair was messy, my eyes were smudgy because of the tears and I was probably very pale. "Kelsi, what is it? It's not still your Grandma is it?"
I just sobbed and held up the pregnancy test. "Gabbi, I'm pregnant." I started crying more. After she got over her shock, she put an arm around me and tucked my hair behind my ears like I was a little girl.
"Big deal, so you're pregnant! Maybe it's a good thing…" She then looked at me. "So come on then, who's the father?" She smiled. "Have you been having a relationship that I don't know about?"
"It's…" I took a deep breath, I had to tell her. "ItsJason'sBaby." She looked confused so I took another breath. "It's Jason's…" I whispered, my voice hoarse. "Jason Cross…" I looked right at her.
She didn't look away, she didn't look shocked. "Well… that certainly complicates things…" She hesitated. "How? When? What are you going to do?" So I told her the story and she didn't bat an eyelid. "Kelsi! He didn't sleep with you out of sympathy!"
I looked at her pityingly. "Yeah right. He loves Martha. Martha. Martha. Martha." I announced, rubbing my eyes with the back of my hand. "I can't believe I was so stupid!" I sighed.
"Look, I know Martha's going to feel a little harsh towards the pair of you but I can tell you one thing, you're not stupid. You'll only be stupid if you abort it, okay? I know Jason didn't do it out of sympathy, this is Mr Cross we're talking about! The thing is…" Gabriella bit her lip. "I think his in love with you."
I laughed at that. Yeah right, like Jason Cross would love me. "I know he loves Martha though! Look, I'm not going to abort it. In fact, I've arranged to meet Jason tonight, I'm going to tell him then…" I took a deep breath. "You cannot tell anyone, you hear me?"
"Course I wont!" She promised but I didn't entirely believe her. She squeezed my hands but it felt different from when Jason did it. Obviously. "Good luck."
I closed my eyes. "Thanks because I'll need it."
Okay so this isn't that long but the chapters will get longer, I promise! Please review!
