When Zoey Lovell and Noel McManus break up, none of them expected it to end in a teenage pregnancy, with their GSCES around the corner...will this stop them both from passing?
Zoey laughed as her dad struggled to take a box upstairs, knowing it was for her baby she still found it absolutely hilarious. "Are you really not gonna help me?" Fraser groans, struggling to drag the box upstairs.
"Uh, pregnant?" Zoey smirks, pointing at her stomach before taking out her phone. "Smile, dad!" she giggles, taking a photo of her dad.
"Zoey!" Fraser yelled, sighing as he finally got the box outside of the spare room. "You're such a pain! I'm doing this on my lunch break you know?"
"Sorry" she replies in a non-apologetic tone. "Told Noel I'd go meet him, so I'll see you back at school!" she smirks again, skipping away and outside the door.
Once Zoey arrived at school, she saw Noel sat with Dean and Kelly-Jo and walked over, waving at him. "You alright?" Zoey spoke as she folded her arms, noticing the ginger kid stood next to him. "Who's this?"
"Declan" Noel smiled, wrapping an arm around the small boy next to him. "I'm his mentor"
"You, a mentor?" Zoey scoffs, holding her stomach. "Oh my god..." she places a hand on her head and laughs.
"He's actually decent...said he'd smack anyone who starts on me" Declan chimes in, looking up at Noel. "You his girlfriend?"
"Yeah, what year are you in?" Zoey laughs, staring at Noel and then the boy. "Year 7-8?"
"Year 9..." Noel nods, smirking slightly. "How's baby?" he asks, changing the subject.
"She's fine, kicking like mad" she giggles, rubbing her stomach. "Jack phoned before...I didn't answer" she sighs as she sits down on a chair in the hall.
"Your real dad?" Noel tilts his head and sits down next to him. "Thought he said he wanted nothing to do with you?"
Zoey shrugs. "So did I...do you think he knows about the baby?" Zoey sighs, looking down at her pregnancy bump again. "I don't want him to have anything to do with her..."
"And he won't" Noel reassures her, grabbing her hand.

Fraser takes a deep breath and wipes his head after he finishes painting the walls, he wipes his head again and sighs as he goes downstairs, leaving both Zoey and Noel in the room. He hears a knock on the door and groans loudly, swinging the front door open. "What are you doing here?" Fraser says in shock, Jack stood at the front door. "You told Zoey you wanted nothing to do with her!"
"I wanna know my grandkid, you know, the one you and Amber hid from me?" Jack says in an angry tone, attempting to push through the house.
"You know why we kept it from you, after what you did to me?" Fraser scoffs, attempting to shove him out but failing. "Just leave, yeah?"
"So where is the slapper anyway?" Jack chuckles, walking into the living room and folding his arms. "Amber? Let me guess, she's out getting off with another man while you look after my kid?"
"She's out, working...trying to pay for her family unlike you" Fraser snaps back, following after him. "Where have you been for Zoey's life the past 6-7 years?"
"Not been allowed near her!" Jack yells back, his blood boiling. "You and Amber have dripped poison into her ear ever since I left, and now she wants nothing to do with me! maybe you're the reason she got pregnant, letting boys come in and out the house!"
"Is that my dad?" Zoey stammered as she looked up from her phone, Noel looking up at her. Noel quickly got up and tip-toed downstairs, going to see what all the commotion was about, Zoey not far behind. "Is it him?" she whispered, her eyes widening. Noel nods slowly before walking downstairs, causing Zoey to stare at him in disbelief, also following him downstairs.
"Ah, there she is!" Jack spoke in a manipulative tone, going to hug his daughter but not getting it. "Rude..." he whispers under his breath. "You must be the fella that got her pregnant, I'm Jack" he smirks, taking out his hand but Noel refuses to touch it.
"See, Zoey wants nothing to do with you...so just go" Fraser sighs, grabbing a glass and pouring a shot of whiskey into it.
"Drinking in the daytime, typical" Jack rolls his eyes before turning his head towards Zoey. "You really enjoy living in this?" he asks, Zoey nods, folding her arms. "You got some serious issues, girl"
"I've got issues?" Zoey barks back, raising her eyebrows in surprise. "Says you, in and out of jail...proper father of the year you!"
"Don't talk to me like that, I'm your dad!" Jack yells back, his face turning red. "You need to know your place!"
"You were my dad, Jack!" Zoey replies, holding her stomach. "You stopped being my dad the second you put my mum in hospital, so just get out!" she screams, grabbing him and shoving him towards the door. "Get out!" She screams again, shoving him out the door.
"Zoey?" Amber stammers, running over to her as Jack got in his car. "Zoey, what's going on?"
Zoey stood there, sobbing before Noel walked over and comforted her. "Shh, I've got you...it's okay!" Noel whispers into her ear, stroking her hair. "It's okay..."
