(December 20th)
My parents, my brother and me got ready and went over to the Reynold's house. His mom answered the door. She introduced herself to them. Me: Where's Noah: Charlotte: Upstairs with Chase they'll be down soon. Me: ok. Charlotte: come sit. (We went into the living room and sat. Blake and Victoria came in and introduced themselves.) Meanwhile upstairs. Noah: Chase I have to tell you something. Chase: you're gay? Stella is actually a guy? You cheated?...... Noah: no, no, no! Man I'm being serious now.....Stella is pregnant that's why we are all here. Chase: They're going to flip. Noah: I just wanted to tell you first. Oh and immmm....It's not mine. Chase: what the hell? (Noah told him the whole story.) Chase: shit man that's messed up. You must really like her. Noah: I do. (I walked upstairs to Noah's room and knocked. Noah opened the door.) Noah: hey babe. Me: hey. Noah: are you ok? Me: do I look ok? Noah: no. Me: yeah. (Chase got up and hugged me. Me: Shit more pity. Man I should just tell people I got pregnant by a ghost so they pity me. Noah: A ghost really? Me: hey it's worth a shot. Chase: we're always here for you. (Then he walked out.) Charlotte: Dinners ready! (Noah grabbed my hand and we walked downstairs to the dinning room. Noah sat next to me. We got done eating and we were about to eat dessert.) Noah: I have to something to say....(Shit shit I'm not really. My hands were in fists under the table and my palms were covered in sweat.)....Stella is pregnant. Robert. Damnit Noah! (Everyone started to yell.) Me: Shutup!.....It's not his. (I was in tears.) Robert stood up. Robert: What kind of game are you trying to play you little whore? (I stood up.) Me: I'm not playing no games I got taken advantage for. (I slammed my hands on the table and walked out.) My brother had to hold my dad back so he wouldn't hit Noah's dad. Dad: don't you ever all my little girl a whore again. (While everyone was still screaming at each other Noah ran outside to find me. I was done with street a little ways. Noah grabbed my hand.) Noah: Stella. Me: No I'm labeled as a whore. Just leave me alone. I'm giving up this baby. Noah: you're not thinking straight. Me: you know I cry myself to sleep most nights. You know I wake up crying and sweating because of what happened to me. You know I hate myself. You know it took a lot for me to actually go on the date with you. I was scared you were going to do the same thing to me. You know I'm scared if I do keep this baby I'll regret it and if I don't I'll regret it. (I was shaking so bad. Noah wrapped his arms around me tight.) Noah: shhhh. Me: I'm a mess please don't leave me. Noah: never I'll stay with you this whole Christmas break. Me: really? Noah: of course. I'll drive you home. I'll just get my stuff later tonight. (I really want us to work out but we will actually see if he sticks around until the baby is born. We walked back to his house and got into his car. We got to my house and my parents weren't home still. We got inside and walked to my room. I laid on the bed. Noah laid next to me and hovered over me.) Noah: Stella one day you, me and this baby will be living in our own house. We will have a puppy and a few kittens and we will be the happiest ever. We ill have the best future together. (I smiled, leaned up and kissed him.) Me: we will have a great future. (He put his hand on my stomach.) Noah: what does it feel like? Me: feels like I ate a very big lunch. (I heard my parents pull up.) Me: shit they're home. (The three of them walked into my room.) Mom: why didn't you tell me? Me: how does one just talk about that stuff to their down parents? I had to force myself to tell you. (I stood up.) Dad: who's baby is it? Me: It don't matter anyways. Mom: please say you're not getting an abortion. Me: of course not. Dad: then why doesn't it matter? Wyatt: I want to know so I can bash his face in. Me: It (I sat back down.) don't matter because I'm not going to tell him. I don't want to go to court and have to share my kid with him. (My mom grabbed my arm.) Mom: Stella please tell us who it is. (I looked down and closed my eyes.) Me:....It's Brody's baby. Mom: Cora's brother? Me: yes. Dad: he's dad. Me: no no please? Dad: fine....he'll die another day then. Me: Wyatt you too. Wyatt: ok no killing. Me: thank you. (My brother and dad walked out of the room.) Me: hey mom is it ok if Noah stays here for the whole break? Mom: sure but he has to stay in the spare bedroom. Me: what do you thinks gonna happen that I'll get pregnant or something? Mom: fine but Noah you'll have to face them sooner or later. Noah: I know ma'am. Mom: y'all behave. (She walked out of the room and shut the door.) Me: so.....now what? Noah: let's go somewhere. Me: ok. (I grabbed some things and Noah grabbed two blankets. We walked out to the main part of the house.) Me: we'll be back. Mom: ok be safe. Me and Noah: of course. (We got into Noah's car and once again drove off. We arrived twenty-five minutes later.) Me: where are we? Noah: Tucker town lake. Me: oh fun. (We got out of the car and went down to the dock. Noah laid a blanket down. We laid on it. Even though it was December there was no snow and it wasn't too cold. It was 40-50 degrees. The stars were out and the night was great. Noah held my hand. I cuddled up to him. We stayed at the lake from 9-12. I texted my mom before we left to tell her we were on our way home. But first Noah needed to stop by his house.
