Here's chapter 4! Enjoy! Please let me know what you think! :)
"Wait...what do you mean you're pregnant?" Ashley said a little scared as she looked at Amy.
"I'm going to have a baby, Ashley!" Amy said loudly as she starting crying.
"Oh no...This can't be happening." Ashley said worried.
"It is...I slept with this guy at band camp." Amy said honestly as she wiped her face with her sleeve.
"Ok wow...No wonder Dad said you've been acting different." Ashley said seriously as she handed Amy a tissue.
"Yeah...I got into it last night with him on the way home but that doesn't matter now...What am I going to do?!" Amy said as she wiped her face with the tissue.
"How should I know? I'm only 13! But I guess everything will be ok." Ashley said stressed out and then nicely.
"Yeah I know...How do you know everything is going to be ok? I'm having a baby..." Amy said sadly as she looked down at her stomach.
"Because you have us. Mom, Dad, and me...I know we're not the perfect family but we'll help you." Ashley said sweetly as she opened up her arms to give Amy a hug. Amy smiled with some tears still coming down her cheeks as she embraced Ashley in a hug.
Meanwhile at Ben's house...
"So son, what do you have planned for today?" Leo asked as he got up from the kitchen table.
"Well, I think Henry, Alice, and I are gonna see a movie. Um...if that's ok with you?" Ben said kindly.
"Yeah sure...I'll have Mike drive you guys." Leo said as he smiled.
"No need, Dad...We were thinking of biking...I'm sure we could use the exercise." Ben said seriously as stood up from the table.
"Are you sure? It's really no problem for Mike to drive you three." Leo said seriously.
"I'm sure...Thanks for the offer though." Ben said nicely as he started to leave the kitchen.
"Ben...What are you hiding?" Leo said concerned.
Ben turned around with a confused look on his face.
"Hide...hiding? I'm not hiding anything." Ben said nervously and then gulped.
"I know when you're lying to me, son. Who are you really going to see?" Leo said as he crossed his arms.
"Uh well...Um..." Ben said awkardly as he looked at the floor.
"Who is it Ben?" Leo said anxiously.
"Ok...It's one of Alice's friends. Both her and Henry are going to be there too. It's like a double date thing." Ben said honestly.
"Oh! A double date! That's great! Why didn't you just say so in the first place?" Leo said happily as he uncrossed his arms.
"Cause you mentioned Mike driving us and I don't want the first date to be too fancy, you know?" Ben said nicely.
"No I understand...You kids have fun! I'll see ya later." Leo said happily.
"Thanks Dad! Love you!" Ben said smiling as he gave Leo a hug.
"Oh! Love you too, Ben." Leo said surpised and then kindly.
Meanwhile at Grace's house...
Grace was reading a book when her phone rang.
"Oh no...It's Jack." Grace said worried as she picked up her phone. After letting it ring a couple times she answered it.
"Hi Grace...I wasn't sure if you would pick up." Jack said nicely.
"Heh...I almost didn't...What do you want?" Grace said a little annoyed.
"Uh...well I've been thinking about what happened last night." Jack said a little nervous.
"Ok...What are you trying to say?" Grace said in an irritated tone.
"Are you sure we're over?" Jack asked seriously.
Before Grace answered Marshall walked into the room and took the phone out of Grace's hand.
"Dad! What are you do-" Grace said surprised.
"Listen, Jack. I don't want you dating my daughter ever again. Got it? If you do I'll put Grace in a private school where she'll be with peers who will be a better influence on her than you. Do you understand me?" Marshall said sternly into the phone.
"Yes sir! I completely understand. Have a good day, Mr. Bowman sir." Jack said a little scared and he hung up.
"Well, that takes care of that. No more talking to Jack. Ha ha!" Marshall said as he grinned while handing Grace her phone.
"Oh my gosh! I can't believe you just did that!" Grace said in a frustrated voice.
"I had to, Gracie...Remember how upset you were because of him? It's for your own good." Marshall said honestly.
"Ugh...I guess you're right...I'm sorry." Grace said nicely after rolling her eyes.
"That's my girl...How about we go play some frisbee? I know Tom's been wanting to try his new one out." Marshall said happily.
"Ok sure...But Dad, do you think I'll ever find the right guy?" Grace said concerned.
"Of course I do but not until you're 30." Marshall said sarcastically as he started to walk out the door.
"Ha ha...Very funny." Grace said smiling as she followed Marshall out of her room.
Meanwhile at Dr. Fields office...
"So, you and Adrian broke up?" Dr. Fields asked seriously.
"I don't know...We weren't even a real couple to begin with...I basically walked out on her because I told her that we're not a couple." Ricky said honestly.
"Ok, let me get this straight...You two were having sex but you weren't together? That just sounds like a recipe for distaster...Especially at your age, Ricky. You're way too young to be acting like this." Dr. Fields said concerned.
"I'm sorry Dr. Fields, but it's who I am...I like having sex with girls and I'm gonna keep doing it...There's nothing you or anyone else can do to stop me." Ricky said confidently as he raised his voice.
"All right...Calm down, kid...I'm just trying to help you because it's my job...But do you think this wanting to sleep around with girls, has anything to do with your father?" Dr. Fields said nicely and then worried.
"My father? No, not at all...He hurt me but he's in prison where he can't hurt me anymore. I made this decision on my own." Ricky said seriously.
"I see...What about your mother?" Dr. Fields asked curiously.
"What about my mother? We've talked about this! She didn't do a damn thing to protect me from that monster!" Ricky said angrily as he raised his voice.
"You're right...My apologies...Listen son, I'm just trying to help you figure out why you want to keep having sex with girls at your age...I really care about you and want the best for you...You know I would do anything for my kids and that includes you...I've known you for so long now, you really are like another son to me." Dr. Fields said kindly. Ricky took a deep breath as he looked at Dr. Fields.
"Thank you, sir. I know you're trying to help me but I don't think anyone can...I'm damaged goods and that's all I'll ever be." Ricky said nicely and then sadly as he got up from his chair and walked out the door.
Dr. Fields sighed as he put his face in his hand.
I hope you enjoyed! Chapter 5 will be coming soon! :)
