Maeve lay in bed and sighed as she looked to her small bump that started to develop. She knew how she was pregnant and how it scared her. She knew that she was going to give her baby up for adoption and she was scared

She knew how she Hadn't told her family yet and she was worried. She had no idea how they would react. She knew how she and Tom had agreed on this and how it was for the best but she was still scared

Maeve got dressed and walked into the dining room and smiled as she saw Maggie "I made you a breakfast it's all healthy and all the best for my grandchild" Maggie said

"Oh right thanks" Maeve said. She didn't know what to say but she felt awkward. She knew how excited that her mum was ti have a baby and she felt bad

Maeve didn't know what to think but she felt awful. She knew that her mum was being supportive and Maeve knew how she hadn't told her the truth

Maeve sat down and started to eat as Esme walked into the room and looked to her sister. She could tell that there was something up with her sister.

Esme walked over and sat next to her and smiled

"Are you okay" she asked as Maeve smiled

"I'm fine. Things are a mess and I am pregnant that's all it is" Maeve said as Esme looked to her and nodded

"I know it's not easy. You know that you are not alone. Your going to be a good"

"I guess"

"You don't seem excited by the idea. Do you not want the baby" Esme asked as Maeve looked to her and sighed

"I'm not talking over this. I can't" Maeve said as she stood up and walked off. It was too early for it

Maeve got to work and saw Tom and smiled as he lead her to his classroom. He looked to her and smiled

"How are you feeling" he asked as she smiled

"I'm okay I made an appointment with and adoption agency I thought we should do this right. I want you to come with me. I know how this isn't easy" she said as Tom looked to her

"You don't need to worry I'm here for you I just never thought I'd be doing this, giving up my child" Tom said as Maeve nodded

"I know but we both agreed that this is for the best. I mean it isn't an easy decision but your a teacher and in a student and we can't have this get out" Maeve said as Tom looked to her and nodded

He knew he never thought he'd end up doing this

Maeve got back to the school house as she saw Esme "I think we need to talk" Esme said as Maeve looked To her and sighed

"About what"

"About what is going on with you Maeve I know you and there's something not right and you know it. So do you want to tell me what it is as I know you" Esme said as Maeve looked to her and sighed

"Fine, you want to know. This baby...I am not keeping it. I am too young and I am not maternal. I am giving it up to adoption to people who want a baby" Maeve said

Esme looked to her in shock. She knew how she had made that mistake and she didn't want Maeve to do the same thing. But could Esme persuade Maeve not to give up her baby?
