The Unplanned Pregnancy

Ch. 14

Today is where I start a new chapter in my life. . . .and that is college.

It's going to be hard buying new clothes throughout this pregnancy. I brought this cute blouse two months ago and I can barely fit it. I'm growing fast and I gained five pounds already. It's so frustrating.

I was putting on my makeup as Zak was in the shower. I'm so nervous that my hands were shaking as I applied my mascara on. I'm more scared about people's reaction when they see me. What if they talk bad about me? Or make fun of me? I'm just overreacting. Probably no one is going to pay attention to my belly bump.

I finished applying my makeup and observed my outfit. (Outfit at the top) Once I was satisfied with my look I went to the kitchen to snack on a granola bar. I didn't want to eat anything, but Zak was pressing about it earlier for me to eat something. I do forget sometimes to eat breakfast because I usually don't eat anything but drink Starbucks stuff.

He came out moments later, going to the fridge to grab some orange juice. I went behind him and wrapped my arms around his waist. "Are you excited for our first day as college freshmans?"

"I'm really excited." He replied, pouring his juice into a cup. "Aren't you?"

"No. I'm nervous."

He turned around and raised an eyebrow. "Why are you nervous?"

"Well. . ." I motioned to my stomach, making Zak roll his eyes.

"Why would you care what they think?"

I shrugged. "I don't know. I might get stares and stuff of that matter."

He took a sip of his orange juice before wrapping his arms around me. "Babe, don't pay them any mind. Besides, I should be the only one staring at your beautiful self."

I blushed and lightly smack his chest. "You're so cheesy."

"What can I say? You are breathtakingly beautiful." He pecked my lips and went back to his OJ, then rinsed the cup out. "Are you ready to go?"

My heart almost jumped out of my chest when he said that. I really want to go but I'm still scared about what people would say about me. I just need to take his advice and calm down. "I'm ready."

"Let's go!" He chimed, clapping his hands. I shook my head as I laughed.

I went to go get my bag and phone. I start work today and I suggested that we would both meet each other at the school, but Zak wanted to drive and doesn't mind picking me up. I didn't feel like arguing with him so I agreed.

I sat on the couch and waited for him. I remembered about the manager of the building telling us about her grandson who is also going to UCLA. He sounds cool to hang out with. I can't wait to meet him and other people who is going to be in my classes.

When we were on our way to school, I was thinking about a name to name our daughter. I've been thinking about it for a while. "I'm stuck between Charlie or Jacquelyn. I really like Charlie for some reason. What do you think of Charlie?"

He glanced at me and smiled. "I like it. You want to call her that?" His face lights up every time we talk about the baby and it makes me so happy to see that.

I nod. "I really love it. Should we give her my middle name or something else?"

"Y/m/n is cute and very unique. But if you want something else then change it."

I didn't like my middle name too much. My eyes lit up as I thought of an idea. "How about Jacquelyn?"

"Great idea. I love it."

"Then it's settled!" I cheered. "Charlie Jacquelyn Bagans. . . .nice ring to it."

He shakes his head and chuckles. "You are a mess."

"I know!" Before I knew it, we pulled into the parking lot of UCLA. My heart felt like it was going to drop to my stomach.

We got out and began walking. I grabbed Zak's hand as I began to get nervous again. So far no one is staring at me. That's a good sign. But what if I end up going into class late and everyone stares at me? I stopped, making Zak stop and looking at me confused. "What's wrong, y/n?"

"What if I get into class late and everyone starts staring at my stomach?"

He lets out a sigh and pulls me to the side. "You're sounding like a five year old on their first day of Kindergarten. You'll be fine! They are gonna stare, regardless. Just don't think about it, okay?"

I nodded, knowing that he was right. He was right before so why am I still acting like this? I just need to loosen up and don't think about what anyone else says. "Okay. I won't."

"That's my girl. If it makes you feel any better, how about you just imagine that all of those people are me."

I lightly laugh. "I think seeing just you would make me feel better."

He smiled before giving me a short kiss. "We should go on to class."

"Yeah, we should." I gave him a hug. "I'll see you later in Biology."

He returned the hug. "Alright. I love you." He placed a hand on my stomach and rubbed small circles. "And Charlie as well."

I giggled and placed my hand on top of his. " We love you, too."

We broke apart, and he gave me another peck on my lips before we parted ways. I'm kind of glad that I have a class with him. I wouldn't think I would but it's only for the first semester, which does end until February, around when Charlie is born.

I headed to my class and, surprisingly, there weren't that many people in there. It was only a group of girls sitting in the middle chatting and two boys on the other side of the room. I ignored them and walked to the front of the room to sit on the first row, waiting for class to begin.

*few hours later*

Class was finally over and I couldn't wait to get out of there. My teacher was so boring. He sounded like the teacher from Ferris Bueller, but old. Worst two hours of my life. My next class is Statistics. I've never took it but it sounds like it's easy and have common sense to it. Correct me if I'm wrong if you ever took it.

On my way there I somehow bumped into someone's chest, which felt like I walked into a brick wall. The person caught me before I fell to the ground. I looked up to see that it was a guy who seems familiar. He had brown eyes and black hair, and was really tall. He looked down at me with a worried look. "Are you okay, miss?" He asked.

"Yeah, thank you for catching my fall." I chuckled as I began to pick up my stuff, but he stopped me and insisted on doing it.

He handed me my stuff with a smile. "I'm Aaron. Aaron Goodwin."

A light bulb went off in my head as I remembered that name. "I know who you are. Your grandmother works as the manager at the Lounge, right?"

"Yeah!" He said, sounding surprised. "How do you know her? Do you live there?"

"Yeah with my fiance."

"Oh your engaged? Congratulations."

"Thanks. She told me that you were majoring in Film. My fiance is doing the same thing."

"Really? That's cool. I might meet him in my next period. What's his name?"

"Zak Bagans. He's wearing a red flannel and has spiky hair. You'll know him when you see him."

He chuckled and nodded. "Alright. See you around..?"

"Oh, it's y/n."

"See ya, y/n!"

Aaron seems really cool to hang out with. Him and Zak might like each other. I can see them growing a really strong friendship. I don't know why I have this feeling, but I feel like they are going to be around each other for a long time.
