So I originally planned on only having it in Austin's, Taylor's and Bailee's POV but I decided to put Ebony into the mixture too so enjoy!

Ebony POV

It happened in early June. I was in Georgia with my mom for the summer and I didn't know anyone.

I'd been on the beach tanning when he came up to me and invited me to a party down on the beach that night. I didn't even know his name and I went to it.

I only drank soda and he kept bringing them on. After about 3 cups, everything got foggy then hazy then my body started to hurt and I couldn't move. He asked if I wanted to go for a walk and I said yes because I thought fresh air would clear my head.

He was so hot. So fucking hot and I couldn't believe he was giving me the time of day. One thing led to another and before I knew it, he was having sex with me. All I wanted was a hookup, not to have sex.

I woke up in a hospital room by myself.

I was found on the beach naked about 4 am. A girl who was jogging found me and called the cops.

My mom didn't really care.

All she knew is that I'd been raped and the doctor had given me medicine so I didn't get any diseases.

It also didn't prevent pregnancy. When I got morning sickness and it was a lot, I'd tell my mom it was a side effect from the meds and she believed me.

I wish she hadn't.

I needed my mom more than ever and all she cared about was her job.

Ethan and I were a 'nuisance' to her.

No one knew.

I was legally an adult and my parents didn't need to know. Of course, the doctor knew but she hasn't told my mom or dad and I was grateful.

I had no idea how'd they react.

When the cheerleaders, my friends found out, because of stupid Riley, I freaked.

I ran out and drove to my favorite spot in San Antonio. I probably should quit the squad and switch schools. I couldn't face my classmates.

Riley probably told Abby and the whole school and I'd be getting a phone call soon from Abby telling me I was off the squad and she'd call my dad and my dad would kill me.

God I hoped my dad didn't find out.

Austin POV

'#EbonyIsASlut'

'Always knew she was a little freak behind close doors.'

'Ebony's pregant???? What have I missed?'

'Pregnant sluts can't cheer. #sorrynotsorry' - @PrincessRiley

Why was everyone hating on Ebony? What had she done?

I missed being home. I had no idea what everyone was talking about or tweeting about I should say.

'Everyone needs to stfu & sit down. People get pregnant everyday & its not a big deal. If you knew the whole story, you wouldn't be saying any of this.' - @TayTaySoap

I exit out of twitter and text Alex. 'Why is everyone bullying Ebony? What'd she do?'

He responds back quickly. 'I don't know. I'll found out and text you.'

At least Taylor was standing up for her. If Ebony really was pregnant, she'd need a safety net to fall back on and have someone there for her 24/7 and I knew Taylor and Bailee would be the first two there. And I wish I was there because even though I didn't know Ebony all that well, I'd stand by her side and protect her from everyone who wanted to hurt her. I'd protect every girl if I could.

Taylor POV

It was almost 11 when I finally fell asleep.

I couldn't think about anything but Ebony. I'd drove around for 4 hours looking for her but no luck. We finally gave up and came home and Bailee fell asleep upstairs.

I was laying on the couch waiting for Logan to come home so I could goto sleep. My eyes were getting heavier by the second and I kept dozing off.

Bang bang bang.

I bolted awake and looked around, trying to find the source of the sound.

Someone was knocking on the door. But Logan had a key and he was suppose to wake me up when he got home.

I hear Bailee walking down the stairs and turning on lights as she comes down.

'Omg, who is knocking?' Bailee mutters, turning on the entryway light. 'Ebony, what's wrong? Why are you crying? Come here sweetie.'

'Riley told Abby and Abby told me I'm off the squad then called my dad and he kicked me out. He kicked me and my brother out.' Ebony says, between gasps of air. 'Where are we gonna go? We have nowhere. Nowhere.'

Bailee looks at me, questioning.

'You'll stay here. We have guest rooms we don't use. Bailee will take you to your room and I'll get your brother. Everything's okay now. I promise you.'

'Thank you Taylor.' Ebony chokes out.

I walk outside to her car and pull her brother out. He was a tiny thing maybe 3 or 4. I wondered who watched him while Ebony was in school.

I reach the front door and kick it shut with my foot and lock it behind me.

Good thing my dad didn't bother with the guest rooms.

Tomorrow I'd have some major begging to do to let them stay.

XXXXX

'Please dad. Please.' I beg for the millionth time. 'They have nowhere else to go. Please.'

It was 2 o'clock in the afternoon and we had slept till noon and my dad was in his office working.

He takes his glasses off and rubs his eyes. 'What does she plan to do after the baby is born? She needs to get a job and save up. What about baby stuff? Where is the baby going to sleep?' He continues on.

'So that's a yes right?' I say, excitedly.

'What about her brother? He's gonna have to goto daycare while y'all are at school.'

'Already taken care of. He goes to pumpkin patch.'

'Let me go meet her and her brother then I'll decide.' He puts his glasses back on and stands up. 'Come along.'

When we reach the living room, I smile encouragingly at Ebony.

'Hi Ebony, I'm Nathan. How far along are you?'

'Six weeks. Seven on Friday.'

'And how old is your brother?'

'He'll be four in December. His name is Evan. Say hi Nathan.'

Evan looks up from his game of cars and smiles at me.

He might only be three but he was the biggest ladies man ever.

My dad continues asking questions and Ebony answers every single one without missing a beat.

'I hope Logan and I are ready for three girls in the house.' My dad says finally.

'Is that a yes?!? Yes, slumber party 24/7!' Bailee shouts, grabbing Ebony into a bear hug.

So was it what you were hoping for? I'm open to any comments about what you would like to see happen next. Maybe Taylor and Drew getting together? Any ship names? Anything?

So I found someone's wifi (thats not locked idiots lol) here at my moms and am using it to update. 473 reads? That's crazy! Last time i checked it was in the 200s and now its almost 500!! Omg! I'm so excited that so many of you are enjoying it! Leave comments, vote and share!
