~Cat's POV~
I sat on the front porch swing and rocked myself back and forth slowly. Tears streamed down my cheeks and landed softly on my sweater. Then I heard Carl yell.

"WHAT?!" he screamed and stomped down the steps. I closed my eyes and got ready to face the worst.

*flashback*
The pregnancy test said positive the day before, and honestly, I really dont want to have a baby. I don't want children, I want to be young and free. I ran into the bathroom and locked the door. I seen the hammer and grabbed it. I thought about smashing it into my head, but I had a better idea.

I grabbed my razor for shaving and broke the top off. Then I broke the bottom off and coughed.

One cut.

Two cuts.

Three cuts.

Four, five, six. Once I started, I couldn't stop. I didn't cry, I didn't laugh, I didn't smile, I did nothing. Blood was dripping on the floor and my whole left arm was red. I put the hammer back in its place then shoved my blade in a drawer. I threw a sweater on and walked out, leaving my weapon behind.

*end of flashback*
Carl slammed the door and looked at me. His eyes were filled with tears.

"I-I.." he said and pulled me in a hug.

-Hayley's POV-

My eyes shot open only to see a sobbing Ben. When he saw me, he lifted me up and hugged me. I was confused. All I remembered was Cat giving me food... Then I almost choked.

"Baby..." Ben cried.

"Ben? What the hell?"

He pulled away. His eyes were red and puffy.

"You had no pulse..."

"Seriously? Well, I'm alive so you really suck at checking pulses," I said with a giggle.

He sniffed. I kissed his cheek, but he pulled me towards him and kissed my lips. The kiss got deeper by the second.

"Why are you cutting?"

I pulled away from him, and that's when I realized I wasn't wearing my sweatshirt.

"Whatever," I whispered, and I walked out of my room to Kelsey's.

~Cat's POV~
Carl sat next to me while we continued to swing. I took my sweater off and I was only in my tank top. Carl was rubbing right next to my cuts.

"How long?" he whispered and looked his bright blue eyes into mine. I looked away sheepishly.

"When I found out about this thing," I pointed to my stomach which was huge. Maggie and Carol went out to the mall to grab me some new clothes, because I was too fat to fit in anything old. I groaned and got the sudden feeling that I wanted to kill myself again. But then I looked at Carl.

"Oh," he frowned and kissed my cheek. I felt the tears starting to come again.

"I don't WANT to have this stupid baby, Carl! I want to be young!" I wept and looked at my fat. "I want to be skinny!"

Carl grabbed my hand and said, "Catrina, you are skinny. Even if you weren't all that skinny, you're beautiful no matter what, and I just want you to know.. that I love you.'

*Jamie's Pov *

I groaned as I tried to get up. Sam is asleep, and I don't know Where the hell Hayley is.

I cried softly as my side started stinging in pain again. Then I thought about Nicole...

I gasped. "Sam.. " I said trying to speak. He still asleep. "goddmnit.. SAM FUCKING DANIEL!" I yelled.
