Establishing Her Legacy

Jasmine

Stacy's POV

I took out the stick from my bag showings him the evidence.

"I'm pregnant" I breathed. Yep, that is what the stick said when I peed on it. I could see his eyes stick out upon hearing the news.

"What?" Luke stood up and went to the window, possibly to get some air.

"But how's that possible, we've been safe", he spoke.

"Well, I can remember a few occasions when we were too excited to use protection and I may have took the pill a little too late one of those times", I spoke.

"Fuck!" He put one of his hands on his hips and the other one on his mouth.

"Luke, say something", I spoke.

"Okay, you're pregnant, I mean, we are pregnant, okay!", He whispered to himself. "Fuck!"

"Really, that's all you have to say?"

"I mean, lm sorry for the way I reacted just now. Its just that, I wasn't expecting all this it came as a bomb! Are you okay Stacy?" He moved towards me.

"Im fine Luke, there's no need to exaggerate, I just wanted to tell you before I take care of it", I spoke.

"Take care of it, what do you mean take care of it?"

"I'm gonna have an abortion obviously!"

"What, so you don't wanna have my baby?" He knitted his eyebrows.

"Luke, dont be ridiculous, I'm barely 18, we are both barely 18, we are high school seniors, we have nothing, we aren't even together, we can't have a baby", she spoke.

"Yes we can, look, graduation is like seven months away, if we play our cards right, we will finish senior year and it won't even be visible yet. We can both take a gap year after that and have the baby over the holiday, we will spent the whole year with him together, I can pick up extra shifts at my job, or better yet I can get another job, and I will provide for us. Then after the gap year, we would have saved enough money then we will move to New York or wherever we want to go for college and we will take our baby and..."

"Luke, that's crazy, I'm not having this baby, I'm not ready!"

"My mom had me when she was 18 and look how fine I turned out to be", I spoke.

"Luke no offence but, your mom is a single mom, she is raising two kids by herself and your dad is not even in the picture!"

"Well, he is an ass, and I'm not my dad, we can make this work Stacy, you still love me don't you?"

"Luke, my body, my dreams, my career", I spoke.

"What, so you can't do all that with a baby?"

"I don't think you can convince me otherwise!"

"So I have no say in the matter whatsoever? So why the fuck did you tell me Stacy? Why would you tell me after you had already made up your mind?"

"I thought you had the right to know!"

"Stacy, you are the most cruel person in the world do you hear that?" He spoke.

Saturday Morning

Veronica's POV

What did I get myself into. I thought as l looked at Jayden sleeping. This feels wrong, very wrong, but I'm happy!

"Hey", he woke up. "How long have you been staring at me like that?"

"What? I wasn't staring, get up, we need to get outta here", I spoke.
