Here's chapter 6 you guys. Thanks for reviewing and continue to.
Amy POV
My life was ruined. Everybody at school officially knew about my pregnancy, my parents were getting a divorce, my dad hated me, and Ricky, and my baby, Lauren and Madison hate me for ruining the year's plans, what else could possibly go wrong? I walked down the halls of the high school and the whole way all I got was a bunch of stares. I found Ben talking to Alice and Henry at his locker. I pulled him aside and almost slapped him.
"You have no right to call me a slut, got it? Who told you anyway?" I asked.
"Madison and Lauren and I can call you whatever I want to." He snapped.
"No, you can't. I did nothing wrong to you, OK. I didn't cheat on you, we split up and I went out with Ricky. That was the smartest decision I made in my life. You're a piece of crap." Hot tears went down my face, they weren't tears of sadness, they were tears of anger and frustration.
"I'd rather be a piece of crap than the school whore." He said.
I couldn't take it anymore. I punched him in his nose and kicked him and walked off. Adrienne caught up with me.
"What is wrong with you, Amy?" she asked.
"I'm pregnant and now I'm known as the school whore." I snapped.
"So what, you punched Ben in the face?"
"You didn't hear the conversation, so don't judge me."
"What did he say then? What did he say that was so bad that you punched him?"
"He calls me a slut and a whore and he makes it seem like it's OK and that I cheated on him with Ricky. I'M NOT A CHEATER!"
Adrienne froze for a moment, then walked away. I heard someone scream and then she came back.
"Nobody calls you a whore." She said.
Ricky came over and saw I was crying. "What is going on?" he asked.
"It's Ben, Ricky." He hands clenched into fists and he ran over to Ben. Me and Adrienne followed to see what he was about to do.
"What did you do to Amy!" he demanded.
"I called her by her name, a whore." His voice was muffled because he was holding bloody nose. "Amy's not a whore, so don't call her that.
Ricky punched Ben in his stomach and then they both fell on the floor, Ricky on top of Ben. He kept punching him and he wouldn't stop, he let his anger get the best of him. As much as I felt like Ben deserved the beat down he was getting, I tried to pull Ricky off of Ben.
"Ricky, stop! He's not worth it! You're beating up a piece of trash. Stop it!"
Adrienne and a couple of other people got Ricky off of Ben and held him back. Afterwards, Adrienne followed me to go find Madison and Lauren.
"Are you guys finally happy now?" I yelled.
"What?" Madison asked.
"Don't act stupid. Thanks to your big mouths, people are calling Amy a whore and Ben needs stitches." Adrienne snapped.
"You guys can't keep a secret to save your life. One of these karma will come back and bite in your asses." I yelled. I had never been this angry at them before, but usually no one ever got sent to the hospital because of their big mouths. "I hope you guys are happy."
"I had nothing to do with it, Amy." Lauren argued.
"Lauren, shut up. You always say that you have nothing to do with it and yet when I go ask someone who told you, they say your name. Madison just blurts it out but you try to keep it a secret but if more than just you, me, and Madison know, it's not a secret." I snapped.
Madison's expression looked completely guilty. She had tears in her eyes. "Oh my gosh, Amy I'm so sorry. I really didn't mean to say it." She apologized.
"Don't expect me to forgive you guys. You have told too many people's secrets and I just keep on telling you it's OK and they'll forget, but now I see how they feel. Until you guys can fix your big mouth ways and then trying to act innocent and then try to make me guilty, don't talk to me anymore."
I stormed off expecting to see Adrienne next to me, but instead she was still yelling at Madison and Lauren.
"You guys are horrible people who don't deserve any friends but each other." I ran over to her. Just like Ricky, she had anger problems and if they said something wrong, they might end like Ben.
"Adrienne, forget it. I don't need them and you'll lose your temper, come on."
"No, I'm not done yet and I won't lose my temper. You guys have told so many people's secrets and they have nothing to do with you guys. You know what, one day I am going to find the biggest secret from both of you and I'll "accidentally" let it come out of my mouth."
Adrienne and I walked off, leaving a terrified Madison and Lauren at their lockers. I went over to check on Ricky. He face was red, his teeth were clenched, and he was digging into his skin.
"Ricky, come on. We're not staying here." I said.
"I'm not leaving until I kill that douche bag." He spat.
"No, you're not killing anyone. He had enough damage done, let's go."
I pulled one his hands and walked out. Adrienne stopped us though.
"I'm going with you guys." She said, seriousness in her voice.
"Adrienne, no. don't miss school because of me." I said.
"I don't even like this dump, OK. Where are you guys going?" she asked.
"To my house." I answered.
"Alright, I'll be there." She said.
We drove in silence. I didn't want to say anything because I knew Ricky wouldn't be so calm. He had every right to be upset and so did I. I didn't do anything to make Ben call me a whore and he deserved the beat down that Ricky gave him. I'm glad I didn't stay with him. What would've happened if he had gotten me pregnant? He would've proved me right and walked out of my life, not caring for his son or daughter. He would've called his own girlfriend a whore and he would've taken that stupid ring back. I didn't even want to marry him. He took me on a one of those guilt trips about how much he loved me and I stayed with him and said yes. I was forced into a marriage. That isn't how marriages should be. You should be able to choose who you wanted to marry without feeling guilty if you rejected them. That's how I was going to feel if I would've told him no.
When we pulled up to my house, Adrienne was already sitting in her car, radio booming, waiting for us. I got out and went to the door. My mom saw me, Ricky, and Adrienne.
"What's going on?" she asked, mainly looking at Adrienne.
"I'm not going back to that school, mom." I said.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"Everything, I'm the school whore." I said, tears in my eyes.
"Oh, Amy. It's OK, don't worry. Don't cry."
"Mom, my life is ruined." I said, still crying.
"What happened?"
I told her about how Ben had texted me last night and this morning I went up to him and told that I'm not a whore and Ricky found out and beat him up really bad and how the whole fight could've been prevented if Madison and Lauren didn't have such big mouths.
By the time I was done, she looked exactly like Ricky did when he had beat Ben up, except her fists weren't clenched. Ricky, Adrienne, and I went upstairs and just sat there trying to calm Ricky down. It took us forever just to unclench his fists. I couldn't go back to that school and neither could he, but how were we going to get an education and graduate and raise a baby? Soon after he was fully calm, Adrienne left. We laid in my bed together and then I remembered something.
"I remember when I found out I was pregnant and I told you why I was crying and you said that if anyone called me easy, you would punch them in their face." I said.
"Yeah, I do too." He said, kind of laughing.
"Thank you. You kept your promise." I said.
"Of course I did, Amy. That jerk deserved what he got. I hope he needs surgery." He said.
As mean as it sounded, I kind of hoped it, too. He was wrong today and I hope he learned. One day, karma will come back and I won't do anything to get in its way. For awhile, Ricky and I just laid together, but Ashley interrupted.
"Hey Amy, I need to talk to you…in my room." she said.
"OK. I'll be right back." I went into Ashley's room and we sat on her floor. "What's up?" I asked.
"I heard about today." She told me.
"How do you know?"
"Mom was talking about it with Mimzy earlier and I heard. Why did he call you a whore?" she asked.
I didn't know if I could tell her, I didn't want my own sister getting worked up and then trying to hit Ben and Madison and Lauren, but I trusted her enough.
"He called me a whore because I'm having a baby at fifteen and it's not his and he thinks I cheated on him with Ricky."
"Well, did you?" she asked.
"Why does everyone think I'm cheating on Ricky? I can't do that, I don't want to do that." I yelled.
"I'm sorry. You're not a whore so don't listen to anybody. They're just jealous because they couldn't be an amazing parent that you're going to be and he's mad that you're not his wife and that baby isn't his kid. It's OK, we all have your back."
I felt so relieved to know that one, Ashley didn't get worked up and two, I knew she would stand by me through all of this. We sat there for awhile until I heard something pound. I went into to see Ricky hitting walls.
"Ricky, what's going on?" I asked.
"Why didn't you tell me he texted you last night and said this. He showed me my phone and I saw the message. I had completely forgotten to tell him about that.
"I forgot, but that's not as big of a deal as it was today." I argued.
"You're right, I'm sorry." I went over to him and hugged him. He still wasn't over this, I could tell. I don't think he ever would be, but I hoped he would. After officially calming him down, we went outside for a walk and just talked. It was nice, the stars were the only lights around us, and it was just us, nobody around, no closed doors, nothing, just the stars and the ground and most of all, us. It was so romantic. This night really opened my eyes, I didn't deserve a boy like Ben who didn't know how to treat a girl, I deserved a man like Ricky. He didn't treat me like a princess or a queen, he treated me like me and I liked that. Most girls would've liked to be treated like a princess, royalty, but not me. I just wanted to be treated like Amy Juergens.
OK, I know this one was yet another dramatic chapter, but I hope you guys still liked it. Don't worry, the next chapter will be fully romantic and drama free, I promise. Chapter 7 will be up by tomorrow and possibly chapter 8.
