It's official I'm definitely pregnant. Time to drive home to tell my family. I decided to take my time driving home. I was trying to think of a way to tell my parents.

I got home at about 6:09 p.m. Just before I usually get home. What if the suspect something with me being home before I usually get off work?

"Quinn, what are you just sitting in your car for," I hear my mother say from the kitchen window.

"Sorry mother just thinking," I said getting out of my black BMW.

"Quinny, your home," my 10 year old sister Grace said running to hug me.

"Mother can I talk to you and father after dinner in the living room," I said after Grace and I hugged.

"Well, if you must but then you have to do your homework," she said setting plates on our table.

"Mom why did you put down 3 extra plates," Grace said.

"Your sister Shannon, her husband Thomas, their son Jackson and their newborn son Andrew are coming over," mother said.

Shannon is my 24 year old sister. She got pregnant with Jackson at 19. Mother made her marry Thomas soon after Jackson was born.

"Mother can I have a word I don't think this can wait till dinner is over," I said sweating.

"Quinn Diana Heart you can wait young lady," my mother said sternly.

Just then the door bell rang.

"Quinn, go get the door," I heard father yell from the study.

I open the door to my exhausted looking sister and her family.

"Shan," Grace yelled running to see our big sister.

"Grac, please don't yell. The baby just fell asleep," she said hugging Grace.

"Sorry, I'm not use to having a baby in the house," Grace said bowing her head.

"It's ok," Shannon said kissing her forehead.

We soon ate. It seemed like it dragged on forever but in reality it took about an hour.

"Mother, Father, Shannon and Grace can I have a word in the living room," I asked nervously.

We all walked into the living room while Thomas stayed to watch the boys.

"I have to make an announcement," I said looking at them.

"Quinn just say it," Shannon said trying to get me to say it.

"Well umm I'm pregnant," I said staring at the floor.

"What," my mother said in horror.

"I'm about a month and a half pregnant," I said bursting into tears.

"Quinn how did this happen? Who's the father? Are you going to keep it," Shannon asked.

"Not of she is living under my roof will she keep a baby," my father said in rage.

"I went to prom and was dancing with a guy named William Jonson. He went to get me punch and put vodka in it. So I got drunk and he pressured me into having sex with him. I lost my virginity to him. I am planning on keeping my baby," I said looking at them trying to sound confident.

"Well get your stuff an leave then," my father said getting up to go to the study to work on his big case.

"Michael where is she to go," my mother asked.

"Cathryn, she can go anywhere but here," he said leaving the room.

"Quinn are you sure you want to keep this baby," my mother said with tears in her eyes.

"Yes, I know she/he may be a mistake but she/he deserves to be loved the same," I said rubbing my belly.

"Well here's a check for 1,500 dollars," she said writing a check.

"Tomorrow we will go look for you an apartment for you and the baby," Shannon said hugging me before getting up and leaving.

"Mother, does this mean I'm going to be disowned," I asked.

"Sadly your father already has disowned you," she said getting up to go to her room.

"Quinn, I still love you," Grace said hugging me.

"I love you never forget that," I said before going to my room to pack.
