I didn't want this... this wasn't supposed to happen.. Why me? Why Nancy , the good girl... Why?

OK, maybe I should start from the beginning. I was at my boyfriend Jake's house and we were sitting out on the decking gazing up at the stars.

He turned to look at me and his gorgeous face stared at mine, his deep blue eyes sparkled in the moonlight and he flashed an irresistible crooked smile.

I couldn't help but blush.

"I love you" he said.

"I love you too" I whispered so quietly I wasn't sure he actually heard.

I didn't realise but we had been moving closer in towards each other as we had been talking.

He leant in and brushed his lips against mine. I couldn't help but smile. I leant in again and we had a make-out session.

I won't recall what happened from there but it changed my life forever.

********************************

It was one month on from that time and I hadn't gotten my period.

At first, I didn't think much of it until I completely missed it that month and it struck, that maybe it was true, the one thing I didn't need right now... a baby.

I started panicking and decided I would call my best friend Destiny up and she could go to the store with me to buy a pregnancy test, this was the last thing I wanted my parents to know about.

*ring-ring...ring-ring...ring-beep*

"Hello?" she said in a soft tone.

"Destiny i-i-i..." I struggled to say this. I was gasping for air.

"Woah! What's up girl? Nance! whats wrong?" she said in an encouraging tone.

"Destiny I'm worried... please take me to the store and don't ask why, I will explain on the way there. Just please.. hurry."

"S-sure..I'm on my way. See you in about 5 minutes." she hung up.

I put some light make-up on and got changed into a light blue floaty top, blue skinnys and beach wedges.

In just less than three minutes she arrived at my house. I ran to her car and jumped in.

Her mum was taking us, since we weren't old enough to drive yet.

"Hey Nance, you okay?"

"Yeah I guess... can I go into the shop on my own? Here's the thing.. I think I might be pregnant so I'm getting a test."

"What?!" she screamed and instantly threw her hand over her mouth.

"WHATS THE MATTER?" her mum said making me jump.

"Nothing" she answered with a cheeky smile on her face. "So who with? Please don't say it's Jake."

"Why? You don't like him?" I said ,stunned she could reject his angelic face and feisty personality. He was like a sex god.

"No.. Its just t-that... nothing." she muttered.

"Destiny? Do you know something I don't?" I questioned.

"Errrr... n-no." she finally decided on.

I didn't say anything else because there was no point in arguing as it wouldn't get me any where, although I still suspected something.

We arrived at the store and I hopped out.

"Do you want us to come with you?" Jane, Destiny's mum, asked.

"No, I'm pretty sure I can handle this but thanks anyway."

"Okay... do you have any money?" Jane said thoughtfully.

"Awr, shoot. I left my purse on my kitchen table." I remembered.

"Oh, that's okay... how much do you need?" she said.

"Thank you! Oh I'd say only about £5."

She handed me the money and I went straight to the pregnancy isle, surprisingly walking past the chocolates and sweets. I was here for one reason, and one reason only.

**************************

I picked put the most expensive one I could afford ; a clear blue plus pregnancy test. it was £5.25 but I dug deep into my coat pocket and found 47p so I was able to buy that.

I walked over to the till. The cashier picked up the item and took a good look over me.

"Aren't you a little young... you know... to b-" I interrupted her.

"As long as I pay for it... I can buy what I want thanks."

She sighed. "Whatever. That will be £5.25." she said in a dull voice.

I handed over the money, grabbed the bag and left, striding towards the shiny silver Volvo.

I got in and sat quietly. No-one said anything the whole journey home.

When we were back I skipped out of the car trying to act as happy and normal as I could , but really, I was nervous and quite anxious.

I just waved goodbye and waited for the car to speed up the street and didn't move until it was out of sight.

I turned around and spotted that my Mums Toyota and Dads Range Rover weren't in the driveway. They had gone to work and for the first time ever, I was glad to be home alone.

*******************

When I got in I didn't brother taking my shoes off. Instead, I just walked up too my room, clutching tightly to the carrier bag in my hand and gradually reached my room.

I walked through my breath takingly big, blue room and strode through to the on-suite.

This was the moment that would decide my fate.

I carefully took out the stick and the instructions and unfolded them. I read it and all I had to do was pee on the stick and wait for the results.

I did so and lay the test on top of the toilet and left it there while I awaited the beep...

It seemed like I had sat there and waited a lifetime for it to come.

*BEEP*

It startled me.

There it was. My future. I was so nervous to look that I waited 5 minutes till I decided I had to look. I had no choice.

I glanced down at the stick and my heart sank to my stomach.

The test was positive. I am pregnant.
