For the past month, i have been hanging out with Chris, Teddy, Gordie, and Vern. I have became closer with Gordie and Chris. Ever since my fight with Soda, i havent even thought about going back to see them. I was mad at Soda, for not believing or trusting me. I was mad at Pony for making it seem like i was a cheater. I knew that the rest of the boys would stick with Soda because they have been friends longer than they have with me.
Easton was pretty mad too. He couldnt believe how Soda acted.
I was at school when i started to feel nauseous. I ran to the bathroom where i puked up my breakfast and lunch. I felt awful. I shakily left the bathroom. As i was walking to class, i heard my name being called. I knew that voice, but i didnt have the energy to run away. I just kept walking as he caught up to me. "I havent seen you in forever", Pony said. "Im mad at you Pony", i said bluntly. "Look, im sorry i didnt come with you and Chris but..." "Thats not why im mad", i said. "Then whats wrong?", he asked. "I need to get to class", i said. "No tell me what i did", he said. "Pony.." "Tell me!", he demanded. "Your the reason Soda broke up with me", i said calmly. I then went to class.
I ended up leaving early from being sick, but it didnt just feel like a regular sick day. Something was different. Something was wrong. I went out and bought a test and took it. It came out positive. I sat there and cried. This couldnt be happening. Easton would be pissed. Soda wouldnt want me or the baby. I decided to go for a walk. I sat down at the park and started to cry. Soon enough, i felt a body sit down next to me. On instinct, i flinched away. "Belle its ok. Its just me. Chris", he said. I looked up and sure enough, it was my friend.
"Whats wrong?", he asked. "Chris, i know we havent been friends long, but would you keep a secret for me? Its personal, so if you dont want me to tell you then its ok", i said. "You can tell me anything. Friends are friends", he said. "Well its kind of hard to say, but well i found out i am.. am.. am pregnant", i stuttered. He seemed shocked, but he didnt freak out. "Whos is it?", he asked. "Its...its Sodas. Well you know how babies are made. We kinda did that when we were still together. Now he doesnt want me and he definitely wont want the baby", i burst into tears again.
"Everything is going to be alright. Whatever you decide to do, i will be on your side", he told me. "Thank you Chris. I better go tell my brother", i said. "Want me to come?", he offered. "No its ok. I better tell him myself. Ill see you soon", i lied. I had my mind set on what i wanted to do. I knew Chris would talk me out of it too if he knew. I left and started for home.

I have been depressed without Belle. She is the love of my life. I dont know what im gonna do without her. I want her back so much, but i foubt she would ever take me back. I started taking late night shifts so i was home alone. There was a knock on the door, so i went to get it. There stood my worst enemy. The Chris guy Pony told me about. "What do you want?", i hissed. "I wanted to know why you were so stupid to talk to Belle the way you did?", Chris said. "Like you care. You have her now", i said. "What are you talking about? Belle is my friend. Not my girlfriend. She is two years younger than me. Im not interested in her that way. She has been miserable without you. You broke her. She thinks you dont want her. Do you want to know the worst part? You got her pregnant and now she definitely thinks you hate her", Chris said.
My eyes widened. Why did i jump to conclusions? This Chris guy is like a brother to her. She wants me, and i havent been there for her. She is having my baby, and im not there for her. "Thanks alot dude", i said. I closed the door getting my shoes on and running back out. I needed to see her, and i needed to see her now.

I got home and Easton was making dinner. "Glad you could make it home. I heard your sick", he said. "Its more than that East", i said. "What is it?", he asked. "I... Im pregnant", i said. He stopped everything he was doing and looked at me. "Who did this to you?", he asked angrily. "Its Sodas, but you cant hurt him", i said. "This is the third time he has hurt you. Eventually i will hurt him", Easton said. "You know how Mommom lives in Illinois?", i said. "Yes why?", he asked. "I want to go stay with her", i said.
Easton turned back to me. "Why dont you want to stay with me?", he asked. "I feel awful already. I cant stay around and be judged by my friends and i dont want to be around Soda knkwing he doesnt want the baby", i said. Easton shook his head. "I guess I understand. You can go. I will give you some money for air fare", he said. I thanked him and ran off to pack.
Once i got my stuff, Easton took me to the airport. I got on my plane and was off to Illinois.

I got to her house as wuick as i could. I knocked on the door until i felt like my hand was going to fall off. Easton opened the door, scowled, and slammed the door in my face. I then started knocking again. "Easton! Open up! I need to talk to Belle", i yelled. He opened the door again. "She isnt here asshole. If she hadnt made me promise, i would have killed you by now", he seethed. "Where is she? I need to talk to her", i said. "Fat chance", he said. "Why?", i asked, starting to get angry. No matter what, his sister i carrying my child and its my business to know. "Now its pretty hard to talk to someone when they are in another state, now isnt it?", he asked.
"Where did she go?", i asked. "If she had wanted you to know, she would have told you", Easton said. He then slammed the door and refused to open it even with my loud knocks. I sank to the ground. The woman i love disappeared and the only oerson that knows wont tell me. Or maybe someone else knows. I stood up and went looking gor Belles current best friend, Chris.
