Why Me? (Sophitz)

Chapter 14

Time Skip about 3 weeks

Fitz's POV

I went to Sophie's house after school, noticing that she hadn't gone. I was welcomed by Edaline and headed upstairs to her room. The second I entered I greeted by her slapping me upside the head.

"What was that for?" I asked, rubbing my hand over the spot she slapped me.

"I think I might be pregnant." My eyes widened. No way.

"What? How? Well I know how but why do think you might be?"

"I threw up a lot this morning and the days before. And I took a test. It came out positive." I was stunned. I had no idea what to do. Sophie started to cry and sat down on the edge of her bed. I sat down next to her pulling her towards me and I rubbed small circles on her lower back.

"I thought you were protected." Sophie said, in between sobs.

"I thought I was too. Last thing I wanted to do was get you pregnant. I'm sorry."

"Sorry isn't going to do anything! Because of this baby, I'm not going to go to university or college or be able to achieve my dream job because of this! After senior year, that's it. My life will be ruined. And yours too for that matter." I really screwed up. "And I have to tell my parents! They're going to kill me for sure. And you."

"Hey, hey calm down. I know this is a very stressing situation that we're in. But we'll figure it out along the way. We'll figure it out together. I'm going to stay by your side the entire time. And I know our parents will not be very happy with the news but they'll help."

"How are you so calm?"

"I just want to comfort you. I know that we're in this situation partly because of me and you're freaking out right now and you need a calm voice and someone to comfort you." She rested her head on my chest and I gently ran my hand up and down her arm. "We'll tell our parents on our own time. But you know we can still abort if you want to." I felt Sophie shake her head.

"I don't want to. This baby hasn't done anything to us it would feel cruel to do that." I nodded my head.

"You know having a baby isn't necessarily a bad thing."

"At our age it is. It would be wonderful if we had baby when we're in a great financial situation, have jobs to support for ourselves, and finished our studies. But that's not the case here." I kissed the top of her head.

"I know." Silence filled the room. "How are we going to break the news to our parents?" Sophie shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know. My parents invited your parents for dinner Friday night. We could say it then." I nodded in agreement.

"Friday night it is."
