LEAH'S P.O.V
"Elliot, I want to keep this child. This child is part of us, literally. He or she has both our DNA, and it is literally part of me now."

I really did want to keep this child and raise it with Elliot. I was so afraid he would say that he didn't want to keep this baby, and I wouldn't have been able to deal if he said that. If he wanted no part of the infant and I did then we would have to break apart our love unless we came to an understanding or agreement. I wouldn't have been able to date my first love who also loved me. I can honestly say this situation should not of happened, but it did and I'm glad Elliot is there for me because I can't do this on my own.

I feel sick everyday to the point where I don't want to leave my bed, and if I did I would be sleeping in the bathroom next to the toilet. Elliot is the reason I get out of bed every morning, he's the reason I go to school when I would rather be staying home trying to keep my breakfast down. I'm not quite sure what to do now. I guess I make an appointment with a doctor, then call the school to inform them of my current situation.

So I called the doctor, and made an appointment with Dr. Zoris. I did some background information on her and she's really good. She's delivered several babies, has done quite a few emergency c-sections, and is just amazing. I have an appointment with her this Saturday at 10 a.m. I don't really feel like getting up at like 8 to start getting ready. I have to get dressed, do makeup, eat breakfast, then wait by the toilet throwing up until about 5 minutes till we have to leave, then I will brush my teeth and we can head out around 9:30. One thing is for sure though, no matter what anyone says I am bringing a small trashcan with me to throw up in.

Later on I called my school, and they actually suggested that I do cyber school. I probably would not have thought of that, and I'm glad they suggested it. I'm kind of shocked that they suggested it because then that's two less students in their school. Yes, I'm going to make Elliot join cyber school too because he will be missing a lot of school too. This is better though I can stay home all day, throw up whenever I need to, eat whatever food I can keep done when I want, and I can have Elliot by my side to help me through everything. This will be hard, but I can do it.

The hardest part is going to be after the baby is born. I actually decided that since there is only 9 more months of school, and I will be pregnant for 9 months then I will just take GED classes. I have enough credits to take this class and graduate a year early. This class will only be between 6 months and 9 months depending on how well I do. If I get high grades I can get my GED in 6 months and still have 3 months till the baby is born. Those 3 months I can just relax and get ready for it to come. After it's born I won't need to worry about school because I would already be graduated. I get to actually graduate with this year's graduating class at my school because the cyber school is linked to my school. So I won't be graduating with my original class, but I get to graduate with all the regular students, and the cyber students of this year. I'm so excited cause I have this all planned out. I just hope everything goes as planned.
