This is me, Amber Aniston

Only child?

My mom jumps up from the couch and zooms upstairs. For like the tenth time. She's been doing it for the past few days. I decide to walk after her, I follow her upstairs and I hear her vomiting. I wait there, and when she finally comes out, I ask "Are you alright?"

"Yes. I'm fine. Must of been something I ate." She says smiling walking into her room. I can tell she doesn't want me to follow her.

"But you've been like this for the past few days." I said looking at her with suspicious eyes.

"You can be ill for a few days, Amber!" She snaps shouting at me. I look down at my shoes with sad eyes, 'sorry' I say quietly.

She looks up at me with sorry eyes and kisses my forehead, hugging me tight.

"I'm sorry, Amber. I didn't mean to shout."

"Whatever!" I snap leaving the room, slamming the door shut. She follows me into my room, before I can close the door.

"Don't snap at me!" She shouts. I just lay on my bed and grab my earphones, plugging them in and clicking to play 'Bad Blood by Taylor Swift'. I can hear my mom speaking but I can't here her. So she's talking to herself. She must realize because she walks out. Leaving me to feel a bit bad. I pull out my ear phones and hear her shut her bedroom door. I don't move and within 10 minutes she walks downstairs. I decide to be sneaky and walk into her room.

She has to be hiding something from me. I walk over to her bed side table and open up the drawer. I move all the not relevant. When I see, OMG! A pregnancy test!

I grab it and stand in the hallway. "Mom!"

"What is it, sweetie?" She runs up the stairs to me, in the hallway.

I don't reply. I just hold the pregnancy test in the air. Her face grows from worried to shock as she stares at this. I bet she didn't even want me to find out.

"Look. I was going to tell you but I needed time to get used to the idea and obviously explaining it to your father." She tries to explain.

"And have you?" I ask. I actually can't believe this.

"Yes!"

"So why didn't you tell me as soon as you told him!?"

"I only told him this morning!"

"Why?!"

"Why what?!"

"Are you having another baby?! Do you just want to replace me?"

"Of course, I don't want to replace you. I love you so much, Amber. I can't even think about replacing you."

I can't listen to anymore of this crap! I need to go and clear my head. The best place to go is to Ruby's house, she always understands. She is great understanding, whenever I have arguments with my parents, she is always there for me. I knock on her door and her mother answers,

"Hey Taylor is Ruby home?" Oh did I forget to tell you her mom is Taylor Swift?!

"Yeah. She's upstairs." She replies opening the door for me to enter. I walk upstairs to Ruby's room. I don't knock on the door, we never do.

"Hey, what's wrong?" She asks lifting from her bed hugging me tight.

"My mom's pregnant and we had a big fight. I didn't mean to go crazy but I couldn't help it. My life will be so different."

"I was the same when I found out mom was pregnant with Lucas but I'm glad she was because life is better, when you're not an only child."

"I'm not an older child. I have 6 other siblings."

"Soon to be 7 other siblings but I promise you that it will be better."

"Where is everyone else? Your house is never usually this quite, not with Lucas running around and his friend, who is adorable but annoying?"

"Well, mom's downstairs like you know." I nod. "Dad out with some of his mates and Lucas should be home any second now." At that moment the door slammed and the loud voice of Lucas echoed through the house. "Shut up, Lucas!" Ruby shouts down the stairs. He stops for about a minute before shouting again. Wow! Some people were just meant to be loud!

I know this baby will bring more love than hate but it will take a lot of time to get used to.
