                                                      **Claire's POV**

Hi, there my name is Claire Allison Williams and I am 17 years old. I got dressed into white skinny jeans, a pink off one shoulder top, and white sandals. I was just finishing up my makeup and hair when I heard crying. I quickly walked to the room where the sound was coming from and found little 8 month old Aiden crying.

 "Shh, it’s ok baby mommy's here now" I hush him. Yes that is right I am a Teen Mom and, I am proud of it. I picked up my son Aiden, who stopped crying immediately. He smiled and held me tight. I quickly changed him and walked downstairs with Aiden him my arms. I told my parents good morning and put Aiden in his high chair. After I made breakfast for us my dad asked what the plans were for today. "Well I am going to school and at 9:00 mom is going to drop Aiden off at the daycare, then Blake is going pick him up during his lunch and then bring him back to daycare and, then at 2:30 I am going to pick him up again and come home".

And I know you're asking yourself who is Blake right? Well he is NOT Aiden's father nor is he my boyfriend. He is my best friend and helps me out alot since the real dad is not in the picture. He, his parents and my parents are really supportive since I am a single teen mom. "What about your homework?" my dad asked. "I will do it when you guys get home so I could focus on getting it done and not worry about him" I tell him as I fed Aiden his baby food.

 A horn honks outside which means that Natalie, my other best friend is here to me up for school. My mom takes Aiden's baby food from me and says "I will finish feeding him for you." I thank my mom and pick Aiden up and give him a hug and kiss his cheek. "Bye baby I will see you soon ok? Be good". I put him back down in his high chair and tell my parents good bye and kiss their cheeks. My parents tell me good luck and to have fun at Challenge Day.

At school we all had to go to the gym where a few men and women were waiting for us. They were probably the people from Challenge Day. I saw Blake somewhere in the crowd and smiled at him. We all had to sit somewhere random, next to people we didn't know.

"Welcome to Challenge Day," a man said. "My name is Johnny and my friends and I are going to lead you all through this day. First thing we are going to do is split up in groups of five people. We are going to start with the 'If you really knew me'- game. We have to get rid of all the groups in this school and we're going to start with telling each other who you really are. Only then we can quit the groups. So everyone, grab a chair and sit in your group."
Everyone did as they were told to and sat in their group. Unfortunately I wasn't in the same group as Blake or Natalie. I was in a group with a guy named J- man, a guy whose name was Marcus, a girl who I knew as Melanie and a really shy boy named Jackson.

"Close your eyes. Think about who you really are, think about what you're going to tell each other," Johnny said. I closed my eyes and thought about everything what had happened.
"Begin," Johnny said after a minute.
"Who wants to go first?" Melanie asked. I took a deep breath. This was it. The sooner it was over the better.
"I'll go first," I said. I took another deep breath and started to talk.
"Everybody who sees me always think I'm the happy go lucky type of person and that I am this happy go lucky girl who is no care in the world about anything, and that I am fearless, that I always smile and have fun. But if you really knew me you'd know that I've been through a lot and that I smile because I enjoy small things," I began softly. The other four looked at me with straight faces, curious for what I was going to say. "A year and a half ago I was at a party with my friends. I had everything: I was popular at school, had really good friends and I was a great student. At one night I was at a party with my friends. We were having a lot of fun when I wasn't feeling well. I remember going outside for fresh air and the next thing I knew was waking up in an unknown house. I was all alone, and scared, because I didn't know what happened. I saw my clothes on the floor, so I feared the worst. I got dressed and ran outside. I got at a bus station, that's how I came home. Anyway, it turned out I was drugged and raped that night," I said. I started to cry and J-man embraced me in a hug. Johnny saw I was struggling and handed me a tissue. I took a deep breath and continued.
"Many if you think I have an eight month old baby brother, but the truth is, Aiden is my son," I said crying. Thinking about Aiden gave me the strength to go on. "The person who raped me got me pregnant. And that's why we moved here. When the news that I was pregnant got out, people started calling me a slut and a whore, just because I didn't know who Aiden's father was. All my friends just dumped me and everywhere I went people were either staring at me or calling me names. I was the talk of the town, everyone knew about me. When I was almost six months pregnant I couldn't take it anymore. I begged my parents to move and they agreed. They supported me all the time, when no one else did. There was one other person who helped me. That was Blake Thomas, also known as the jock at this school," I said. I smiled a little.
