Not A Mistake

Chapter 11

First day of fall break.

Arabella was sunbathing next to the pool. She had wanted to relax while she was on break since she didn't get the chance much when she was in school.

Her aunt walked out she was happy to see her niece stress free it was better than how she had been lately.  "Nice to see you relaxing."

Arabella looked over to her aunt she had to agree with that. It was also nice to have to see any of the students at her school or having to deal with them staring at her. "It's nice to be relaxing."

"Your bump is coming in nicely." She had noticed that her bump was coming in and she knew that Arabella was happy about it. She was slowly leaving the sad/angry stage and was excited about her pregnancy. 

She nodded she had noticed right away when her bump had first started coming in and now that it was she just prayed that she didn't gain weight anywhere else. "Just don't want to gain any weight anywhere else and I'll be fine."

Even though she figured that she knew the answer to the question she was still going to ask. She knew that her niece was being stubborn and she couldn't really blame her for it."So you talk to Ashton or Skylar."

"Skylar and I got to arguing in the middle of the hallway and." She paused she wasn't sure about how her and Ashton were doing right now it was just so complicated and she couldn't stand it. She wished that they could just get along for the sake of the baby but she didn't see that happening anytime soon. "Ashton and I well I'm tempted to kick his ass."

Layla went and sat on the chair next to her she knew that this was hard for her. But for the baby they needed to learn how to get along. No matter how long they hated each other and didn't want to be near each other they didn't really have a choice. "Ari I know that a lot is going on but you should really consider giving the father of your baby a chance after all he is the baby's father."

"Don't start the whole it takes two to make a baby game because honestly, I don't want to hear it." She knew that it wasn't all on her she knew that it was his baby too but she didn't trust him. She didn't know if she could ever trust him. He had the reputation of using girls and throwing them away like they meant nothing and so far he was proving that reputation right. He hadn't proved that he actually wanted to be their for the baby. "This is my baby and until he acts like he actually cares about it i don't care what he has to say."

"Arabella did i ever tell you that you are very stubborn."

"I know that Aunt Layla and i know that maybe i am making this bigger than it has to be but this is my baby. I know that it's his two but what has he done to make it seem like he wants this baby. He hasn't even claimed the baby he only wants to talk in private. He's not getting the stares the rumors there not affecting him. If he really wanted this baby he would make it all stop he wouldn't make the women of his child suffer that. When he knows that he could put a stop to it. If he actually cared about this baby he would have fought me on not wanting him near this baby but he doesn't care." She knew that she owed him a chance but when he could act like this was his baby then they could talk about it. But right now she was going to continue to do this by herself. 

"Let me tell you something you both are 16 this is a hard time for the both of you." She knew that the initial shock that they we're having a baby was still fresh. But it was happening and they were going to have to work together. "And it is going to take some time for him to get used to the idea of having a baby."

"Then what do I do wait until he comes around." She didn't want to wait until he finally realized that he was having a baby and decided to care.

"Don't block him out at every turn. Give him a chance. You're not going to be able to get to this entire pregnancy your self yes the hormones have started but you have yet to get the worst part." She knew of not one person that could go to their whole entire pregnancy without needing some kind of release.
