I've been staying with Josh the last few weeks. It has been wonderful knowing we don't have to sneak around and hide from people anymore.

Today we are having dinner with both our parents. My mom hasn't been able to be home a lot lately so this is only day we could all get together. My mom hasn't seen me in 3 weeks so she doesn't know that my stomach has gotten a lot bigger. It's not huge but it's not as small as it was before. In large T-shirts you can't even tell I'm pregnant but in most of my shirts you can tell so a lot of people at school have asked about it.

At first it was kind of embarrassing but now it's normal. Connor, Josh's brother, has been watching out for me ever since we told him. He said and I quote, "No one is going to mess with her on my watch."

I'm glad he wants to watch out for me but it's getting annoying. He walks me to every class and makes sure I eat lunch. I didn't even know he had the same lunch as me until he came over and sat with me and Alice. It wasn't bad at first but he's starting to flirt with Alice so I feel like a third wheel. So has you can tell these past few weeks have been crazy.

I'm currently sitting in 4th block, listening to my teacher talk about god knows what.  I keep checking the clock, counting down the seconds until the bell rings. I'm so glad it's Friday. School makes me so tired, all I want to do is go home and to bed. I've been doing that but I can't today. As soon as school is over I have to go to dinner then after that I don't know what will happen.

Hopefully everything will go well. I've talked to Josh's mom on the phone but only for a few minutes. Josh has actually met my mom once before but that was way before all this stuff happened. I'm exited and nervous at the same time. I sign and look at the clock again. Only 1 more minute and I can leave.

I slowly close my book and get my things together. I look around the room and see someone staring at me. I smile at them then turn back to face the front. That's weird. The bell rings and everyone basically runs out of the room. I honestly don't blame them. They're probably going to get ready for a party or to hang out with their friends. I kind of miss going out and getting drunk every weekend but better things are about to happen.

I reach my locker and throw my books inside. I turn and start making my way down the hallway when Connor comes up beside me.

He says,"Hey. Is Josh picking you up?"

I say,"Yes. Why?"

He says,"I need a ride."

I say,"Im sure Josh won't mind."

He says,"Yeah."

We walk the rest of the way to Josh's car without speaking. I get in the passenger side and Connor gets in the back.

Josh says,"Don't you have your own car?"

Connor says,"Yes but you brought me to school so I didn't have a way home."

Josh says,"Im not going home right now."

Connor says,"I know. Mom wants me to be at the dinner."

Josh starts to say something but I cut him off,"I think it's a great idea for you to come."

Connor says,"Yeah I guess,"then starts playing on his phone.

Josh smiles at me and says,"I missed you today."

I say,"I missed you too."

He smiles again then pulls out of the schools parking lot and starts driving to the dinner.
