"I have missed you too. I love you!" I exclaimed back to Tom. Thoughts were flying through my mind I needed to tell him I was pregnant and he was the father. We were going to be parents. But did I want to have a child? The thought flooded my mind.

Tom came in and we sat down on the sofa. We watched my favourite film 'the fault in our stars' then began to chat.
"Have you done that biology homework due next week, pez?" asked Tom, not knowing biology was a touchy subject at the moment.
"Sorry what? Biology homework?" I replied, all I could think of was the baby inside me.
"Have you done the biology homework? Are you ok?" repeated Tom, wondering why I was acting strange.

"No I haven't and I'm fine," I answered, still worried about the child. I should have told him that I was having your child.
"Ok well I am just going to go to the toilet. Then I will get going if that is ok with you," Tom said already entering the bathroom.
"Yeah fine," I exclaimed, forgetting the test were in the bathroom. What was I going to do? What if he thinks they are mine? Tom walked out of the room with the pregnancy test.
"Peri is Leela pregnant?" Asked Tom looking extremely confused.
"Tom you need Tom come and sit down. I have something to tell you," I said to Tom, not knowing how he was going to react. He came over to the sofa sat down, and looked at me worried.
"Go on then, what do you want to tell me. It isn't yours is it?" Tom exclaimed joking about. I burst in to a pool of tears.
"Hey babe is it your?" asked Tom again.
"Yes it is mine and you are the father," I shouted, upset that he had made a joke about it.

"Peri this is great news. We are finally going to have a family. I suppose it would be better if we were older but we will be fine. We will get through this together, Pez," answered Tom, supportively.
"Tom I aren't having this baby I am having an abortion. We are 16, we have our GCSE's we can't be looking after a baby too!" I replied, after making the quick decision.
