A/N: I'm so sorry that I haven't updated for a while. I've been getting ready for a trip, so I've been really busy. I wrote this in my hotel room, so yeah. I hope you like it.

Ponyboy sat in his dorm, trying to do his homework. It was only two months into the school year, and so far Ponyboy was enjoying college life. He had more freedom than he did back home, but despite that he was really missing the gang. Hell, he even missed Steve (but only a little bit. He was still an asshole).

Ponyboy was so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't notice his roommate, Franklin, walk in.

"Hey Ponyboy, your girlfriend is outside the building. She says she wants to talk to you." The blonde winked at him. "Yinz better not have too much fun, you hear." Ponyboy rolled his eyes at him. When he first arrived in Pennsylvania, he was surprised to hear the word "yinz." He didn't have a clue as to what the word meant. So he asked his girlfriend, since she was a Pennsylvania native. "It basically means y'all." She had explained.

"I'll try not to." Ponyboy muttered as he got up and grabbed his jacket. It was October now, and he didn't want to freeze to death.

Ponyboy left his dorm and made his way down to the front of the building. He found his girlfriend Alyssa sitting on a bench, looking sick to her stomach. Ponyboy picked up his pace once he saw the look on her face.

"Alyssa," Her head snapped up at the sound of her name. Ponyboy took a seat next to her. "Alyssa, are you alight?" he asked. She's biting her lip, that's never a good sign, Ponyboy noted.

"Please don't be mad at me." Alyssa whispered, she wouldn't look him in the eye.

"Alyssa, you're scaring me." She still wouldn't look him in the eye.

"Remember-Remember when we….had sex for the first time? It was about two months ago?" Ponyboy blushed at the mention of their first time. It had been the day they got to campus, and they were both happy to be off at college without overprotective siblings breathing down their necks (Elizabeth was very protective of her little sister). They were so caught up in the moment; they went all the way without meaning to. Not that Ponyboy was complaining.

"Yeah, I-I remember." Ponyboy managed to get out. He was still confused. "What does that have to do with anything?" Alyssa turned her head to look at Ponyboy.

"Ponyboy, I'm pregnant," She whispered. Ponyboy almost pissed himself at those words. Pregnant, how can she be pregnant? They used a condom! But it was a condom that you got from Two Bit, a little voice in the back of his head told him. Ponyboy felt like an idiot, why would he get condoms from Two Bit? Reality came crashing down on Ponyboy at that moment. What were they going to do? They were still in school and they both wanted to finish it. How would they take care of a child and go to school at the same time? Oh no, what was Darry going to say/do? He's going to kill you, duh, the little voice told him. It sounded oddly cheerful.

"P-p-pregnant," Ponyboy stuttered. Alyssa was now looking at her shoes, they seemed to be quite interesting, to her at least.

"Yes," She whispered, a tear running down her cheek. Ponyboy felt like crying himself. He pulled his girlfriend into his arms and did just that. They cried together, holding on to one another for dear life. They didn't know what would happen, but they did know that they would get through it together.


What did you think? I think it's good, but I'm the author so I don't much say on the matter. Thank you to all my reviewers, you guys rock. Thank you to all my readers as well. Please don't forget to review! Just so you know, this is when she's pregnant with their oldest Ellie. So yeah, I hope you liked it.
