I looked out the window at Lake Pontchartrain, clenching the necklace he'd given me, as my tears blurred the beautiful view.
Flashback
"What do you mean it broke?" I yelled as he held the shattered condom in his hand.
"I...I don't know, it just broke while we, uh..." he stammered. My head fell into my hands and I sobbed. He quickly sat next to me and pulled me into his arms, "Hey, Angel, it's okay. I mean what are the odds of something happening? Besides," he said softly, lifting my chin, "There's no one in this world I would rather have lost my virginity to than you. I love you, baby."
I sighed, looking into his mesmerizing eyes, then kissed him softly, "I love you, too, Nova."
End flashback
My hand fell to my swollen stomach as I cried. Why did he leave me?
"Matilda, come on down for dinner, Cher," my grandmother's voice carried down the hall.
"Coming MawMaw," I called back. "Come on, critter. She'll get angry if we're late for food." I felt the baby kick at my hand and smiled. I can do this, I thought to myself. Time to grow up and stop crying. Sure, I'm a teen mom, but that's no excuse to sit around and cry all day. I have this little bebe depending on me now, and I'll be damned if I let her down.
Author's Notes: And we're off on a new story. A couple of the Blackbournes may make an appearance, but they will not be as love interests.
