CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR—
T H A L I A's povTHE HALLWAYS CONSISTED of rowdy students that piled throughout the room. Though, they were much less lonely due to all of the sandlot boys already making it to high school.
But today, I was much nervous walking down the halls for this would be the first attempt to show my bump and not wear anything but sweatshirts and baggier shirts.
Already, I had a few looks, though no one luckily hasn't said a thing. My eyes scanned down the line of crimson red lockers before stopping on one particular one.
I took out the few books I needed for the next class before closing the locker. I turned around and walked off down the hall, though when turning the corner I ran into a familiar black haired boy.
Miles, quickly took ahold of my arms when seeing I stumbled from bumping into him, "Oh shit- I'm sorry-
He paused, his eyes widening when seeing my stomach. "Holy- I'm sorry, you're pregnant?"
I took a glance at my stomach and nodded. His eyes, widened even more. "Oh wow.. I had no idea-
He was cut off by dirty blonde Adam who suddenly appeared behind him, his arm wrapping over Miles shoulder. "Holy shit! You're pregnant? Since when!"
Miles simply rolled his eyes, "Sorry about him but- you alright? Sorry I didn't see you there"
I cracked a smile and nodded, "Oh. Yeah, I'm alright thanks"
"So whose baby is it.." Adam though trailed off, and when looking behind me he laughed, "Oh shit- let me guess it's yours!"
I turned back to see Benny who walked over, his eyes rolling at the boys statement. Now standing closely next to me and eyeing the two boys he questioned, "What's going on?"
Miles was the first to speak, "Nothing man, I just didn't know—
"Holy shit, you finally hit this little thing- and got her pregnant?" Adam now chimed in, cutting the boy off.
Miles's head fell into his hands and he groaned, "Adam. Would you shut up? Seriously?"
He turned back towards me and sighed, "Really sorry about him, he never knows when to shut the hell up!"
I shook my head, waving it off, "Oh. No, it's alright"
He slowly nodded, a smile cracking, "Well.. congrats you guys. You know what it is yet?"
I smiled, nodding my head.
"Oh, yeah, it's a girl—"Mhm, yeah thanks man- see you" Benny broke in, beginning to lead me away.
With that he placed his hand onto my lower back and quickly led me down the hall. With a frown I glanced back in confusion, "Oh.. uh- well see you Miles!"
I gave him a wave before getting my hand snatched upon by Benny and whirled around. He scoffed, "What are you- don't wave at him?"
"Why not? Don't you like them?" I questioned, rolling my eyes.
He too rolled his eyes, "It's not that, it's just- I don't like them around you"
