Angel

When I got up from taking my nap, I had first checked what time it was and began to start on some of my homework. Because, I wasn't about to stay up all night doing this when I have to get myself ready for school the next day.

" I don't know if she's still sleep or not. Let me see if Angel has gotten up yet. " I heard my mother say over the phone.

" Who is it? " I asked.

" Eric. He was asking me if you were still sleeping or not. Should I tell him to just call you back? " She replied.

" No. Thank you for answering the phone, mom. " I told her.

" What do you want now? I'm trying to finish up my homework right now. " I sighed.

" I wanted to apologize for earlier. It was messed up that I was pressuring you into something you wasn't comfortable with and for calling you out your name. " He explained.

" I accept your apology. I still love you and I'm not even upset about what happen earlier. But, you have to realize that even though I sometimes act mature for my age. That I'm still 17. You're 22, the only reason my parents aren't really pissed off is because, when I turn 18 and graduate. They won't be responsible for me anymore, you're not the only guy that has gotten me pregnant before. " I said.

" What? How many guys you slept with before we got into a relationship? " He asked.

" It's not important. I was barely a teenager when it happened and it turned out that I had just missed my period due to stress. I wasn't even staying here when it happened. I stayed that one entire summer living with my auntie, coming in and out the house all times of night. My cousin introduced me to a guy she knew through some school that they both went to. He was 14 going on 15. Meanwhile, I was still 12, my birthday wasn't until, November. So, I had a little ways until, I turned 13. He had told me that if I really loved him that I would let him take my virginity and I fell for it. About three weeks later, I had morning sickness and stayed tired. I told him about a possibility that I might be pregnant and he basically brushed it off saying that, he used a condom and how it was all my fault about not taking the pill. So, days passed later after, we talked and my period had came. I was so glad that it was over, it was my first pregnancy scare. I was scared as hell because, I was still a kid myself. I didn't want to be stuck with a baby. " I recalled.

" Damn. Well, you don't have to worry about being stuck with our child. Because, I'm not going anywhere. I love you, Angel. " He said.

" I love you too, Eric. Can you come by tomorrow morning and drop me off at school? I don't feel like walking since, my feet stay sore now. " I asked.

" Sure. Our appointment is tomorrow at 4:30. So, I'll come back to pick you up from school and then, if you're feeling up to it, We can come back to my place and watch a couple of movies and order some pizza. " He said.

" That sounds fun. I'll see you tomorrow morning then. I have finish doing my homework so, I can go back to bed. " I yawned.

" Alright, just don't stay up too late. Goodnight. " He said.

I had finished up my homework and finally went to bed. I was more tired than usual but, at least tomorrow was Friday and I get to spend the night over Eric's house. We hardly ever get to be by ourselves anymore. I should get my overnight bag ready, so I wouldn't have to do it in the morning. I got some toiletries, some slippers and my favorite pair of pajamas. Okay, I'm finally going to bed.
