•~Amelia's P.O.V~•
"Amelia, someone's on the phone for you!" Mom yelled up the stairs. I sighed, getting up from the middle of Bob's floor.

We hadn't gone through his room or even removed his stuff. I couldn't decide if it was a going or bad thing that we kept his room the same way he left it, but I didn't have the heart to try and discuss it with my parents.

I walked down the steps and into the kitchen, my mom held the phone out when I finally reached her.

"Hello?" I asked, my Mom, walked into the living room with my Dad who was watching some true-crime TV show they enjoyed.

"Amelia, it's Johnny." I gulped.

"I tried to come inside but Darry said you weren't in the best spot to see me," I said running my fingers through my hair.

"Darry told me, you should've just come inside." He said, chuckling a bit.

"So um do you wanna keep it?" I asked, glancing at my parents in the living room.

They didn't know I'd been thinking about getting rid of the child. I was unsure about keeping it, if Johnny didn't want a baby I'd give it up if he did then I'd keep it. The only reason I was unsure was that I wasn't sure if Johnny wanted to keep it.

"W-Well yeah, but it's really up to you." Johnny stuttered, at least he wanted to keep the choice up to me.

"Then both of us are gonna need to get a job, Johnny." I knew my parents would offer to give me any of the money I needed, but I wanted to be more responsible than that.

"Okay, I can do that," Johnny said. I felt so awkward talking to him not even three days after we had broken up.

"I'm gonna talk to my parents about letting you stay in Bob's old room after we clean it out if you wanna stay with us."

"Why can't I stay in your room with you like we used to?" I looked up and saw Randy come into the house. He waved at me and I waved back at him.

"Because we're not together anymore, Johnny." I heard Johnny sigh.

"Amelia, please..."

"Johnny, I think we need time from each other. I still love you with all of my heart, Johnny but we've just been arguing too much." I watched as Randy put his keys on the table.

"I guess your right."

"I'll call you and tell you what my parents said about you staying in Bob's old room, okay?" I asked.

"Okay, I'll talk to you later Amelia."

"Bye, Johnny." I hung up, letting out a loud sigh.

"What's wrong?" Randy asked, leaning on the kitchen counter.

"I told Johnny I was pregnant, I need to find a job, and now I have to ask if we can go through Bob's room and let Johnny stay here again." Randy chuckled.

"You got your hands full, don't you?" I shrugged.

"I guess so."

"Well, if you're parents say it's okay to go through Bob's room I can help out." I gave him a small smile.

"Thanks, Randy." He nodded.

Mom and Dad ended up agreeing to clean out Bob's room and let Johnny stay here. Randy was helping, putting boxes of Bob's things in the attic.

The only things we kept were Bob's bed, desk, TV, TV stand, and dresser. Everything else went into the attic. We even changed the sheets and bedspread. I told Johnny that I'd call him again when we'd set the room up for him and that if he needed me to that I could come and get him.

Mom had already scheduled doctor's appointments for me and was debating with my Dad about turning the guest bedroom into a nursery. My Dad didn't mind, he just thought we should wait until we found out the gender so we could paint the walls pink or blue.

Mom just wanted to go shopping for baby stuff. She used to always talk about going baby shopping with me when I was younger, and she was so happy to do it now.

But, even though my family was excited I couldn't help but think about what the gang was feeling. I wasn't even sure they liked me anymore, I hoped they did, in case Johnny and I got back together.
