                                                 Chloe POV

How dare she?! I pushed myself and got an idea. I innocently but couldn't hide some anger in my voice," Oh, she has so many secrets."  Ashley and I were at the community center, and at the music room. I was waiting for Max to come and join us, I have something to tell him, but I didn’t know how he was going to take the news.

Ashley glanced over at me. “She might be hiding secrets, but what about you? I know something, which you’re hiding from Max.”

"Yeah so?” I replied and lightly tapped her foot as a warning.

“Babe, you’re almost three months pregnant, you need to tell him soon, since he’s the father.” Ashley could be smart whenever she wants to. And I knew she has a point in this.

"I know," I replied and patted my stomach lightly, “And I thought you were supposed to watch my back, so that I don't get in any big fights."

“I know, Taylor. But like you would have listened to me. You hate Alison for no damn reason. I mean what did she ever done to you?” She was taking her side now!

I narrowed my brown eyes at her. “You’re taking hoodie girl side now! You got to me kidding me.” She stopped for a second, and continued onward with me.

"I'm not saying that!" She protested as I saw Max walking towards us. I got up and ran into his arms with tears running down my face. I didn’t know how to tell him. I was so afraid what he might say. Would he leave me? Well we’re not really going out in the first place. So what would it matter? Nothing! At least not to me.

“Why are you crying babe.” Max asked me.

“Because I need to tell you something but I’m afraid what you might say about it.” I told him.

"It's ok." He murmured as he ran his fingers over my hair in a very confronting way.

"No, it's not." I said firmly .He held me tighter, making me want to humm in pleasure. No. I thought to myself. We need to talk about this baby.

"What is it, you can trust me...” He whispered softly in my ear.

"I know I can. But I know for a fact, you won’t like the news." I was so afraid of what he might say to me.

"Whatever the news is, you can still trust me to be happy and by your side." He replied gently. I just hope he stay to his word.

"I’m pregnant." I told him quickly.

He held me tighter and closer to him, with a serious look on his face. "W-what! Is the baby even my mine?"

"Sort of," I stammered and he quickly calmed down.

"What do you mean sort of?" He asked.

"Sort of..." I mumbled...

"Stop saying that, dammit!" He yelled into my face.

"Sorry!" I screamed and let go of him. If that happened in slow motion this would be cool, I thought as my friend caught me before I fell. I felt tears coming down my face. Why was I crying over this? At least we weren’t together. I will be a single mother, if I have to be one.

"It's your baby, jackass!" Ashley said. "Do you want to do a DNA or something?" she said with a serious look. “We will do one, after this baby is born.”

I stood up in disbelief and turn around so that I face both of them. I waited for him to say something. But again, I didn’t want to hear what he had to say about all of this.I shook, I don't know why but I started to shake. I knew this wasn't good. "Babe, are you okay?" Max asked. I didn't reply. I fell to the floor with my heart racing. I hope nothing was wrong with this baby.

"I'm- I'm-" I stammered barely speaking.

"You’re what!?" I could hear the fear in his voice. I just stare, unable to speak.

  The last thing I saw was Alison running our way.

                                                               Alison POV

 Max turned towards me. “I don’t know, Alison.” I could tell he was trying to hold back tears. “She just told me she was pregnant with my baby, and then this happened!” Oh, God. This wasn’t good.

“Call 911, Ashley!” I shouted to her.

"Already doing that!" She said back to me.

"Can we help her?" I asked.

Max replied," I'm sure we can do something..."

I shook my head at them, I knew what was happening to her, and it wasn’t good whatsoever. “She’s having a seizure, and deprived of oxygen.” They had a sad look on their faces, not a hint of happiness. "I bet the baby is going to be just fine." I told them. "Everything’s going to be fine. Kay?"

Ashley gave me a look of hatred. “Why are trying to help her! You hate her.”

I raised my eye brow. “Listen Barbie, I don’t hate anyone. I didn’t do anything to ya’ll in the first place. Chloe started this. So don’t hate on me for helping, got me?” She nodded her.  Just then, two men came in and put Chloe onto the stretcher, Max and Ashley both got into the back of the ambulance with her. I followed them to the hospital. There’s no way, I was going to leave Max along to deal with all of this. I had nothing better to do.

I stepped inside and started to frown as I saw Max walking towards me. "What?" I asked him.

Max grabbed my hand, when he came closer. "Why are you frowned?"

"Because-" I start but instead I shook my head.

 “Tell me.”

"No." I stated.

"Why not?" He asked, as he leaned in closer to me.

"Because I don't want to!" I yelled back and pushed him away.  I started to walk away from him, but then he pulled me back to him. What did he want?

He stared into my eyes and said, “I don’t think this baby is mine, and I don’t know what to do!”

I let out a laugh. “Just be there for her. The baby could be dead all we know.” I hope that wasn’t true. Why did I even say that! “I hope the baby is okay though.” He nodded slowly as I took a step back from him. He reached for me, and then paused.

He ran his hand through his black hair, and then said, "Its okay-"

Before he could say anything else, Ashley ran over towards us. By the look she was giving us-I knew something was wrong.
