A/N Elijah in the picture above

I laid there tired but awake as my alarm clock yelled through the quiet room. My mind kept contemplating my options all night. Right as I was about to turn over and continue to be a lazy bed potato, my stomach turned and I felt the need to throw up.
I sat there on my knees in the bathroom hugging the toilet.

"I'm defiantly pregnant." I whispered to myself as I finished puking.

"Avery are you alright?" My mom came walking into the bathroom.

"I'm not feeling well." I answered.

"I see, well get back in bed I guess. No one will be here until later tonight so you can get sleep."

I nodded as she closed the door. I brushed my teeth and then jumped back under my covers. I heard my phone buzz so I answered the call from my boyfriend.

"Hello?" I answered tiredly.

"Good morning beautiful."

"Morning." I grumbled.

"Are you feeling alright?"

"I'm just feeling a little sick this morning."

"Aw I'm sorry baby, do you want me to pick you up and see if I can get your mind off of it?" I thought about his offer and decided I would take it.

"That'd be nice, just let me get ready and I'll tell you when."

"Okay I'll see you soon." I smiled as I said goodbye.

I laid down for a few minutes just until I was sure everyone had left. Once my parents were gone I got out of bed and showered.

After I got out I dressed in an oversized tie-dye hoodie and some black leggings. I blow dried my long brown hair and put into a high pony tail. For makeup I just put on some mascara and filled in my eyebrows. After all that I slipped on some black ankle socks and then my black and white converse.

I quickly texted Elijah and just gathered a few things into my purse. He texted saying we was here after about 15 minutes so I headed out the door. I hoped into his navy blue pick up truck and he drove off.

"You look hot for being sick." He chuckled.

"Thanks I guess?" I laughed along blushing.

"I'm really happy you said yes to hanging out with me I've been wanting to tell you something."

"Really what is it?"

"You know how I've been trying to get a job as a teacher?"

"Yeah."

"Well the school board gave me a job at one of the high schools in the district." He was trying to be calm but was too excited to contain it all.

"Oh my god babe! That's amazing!" I kissed his cheek.

"Thanks babe, I really wouldn't have kept trying if you didn't support me."

"That's what I'm here for darling, anyways what school did you get?"

"Umm haha funny thing is, I actually landed a job at your school."

"My school?" I was trying to sound happy but I really wasn't. Once he finds out I might be pregnant he's going to leave me and it'll be such a horrible year at school having to see him everyday.

"Yeah, it doesn't necessarily mean I'll be one of your teachers it's just I'll be working there."

"Ah okay.."

"Is something wrong?" He asked furrowing his eyebrows.

Well I might be pregnant with your kid and now you're working at my school soo.

"No I'm fine." I smiled weakly.

"are you hungry?" I nodded.

"Good, you wanna go to Ruby's ?" I nodded again.

He had driven us to the restaurant we had our first date at. While sitting inside we talked about drama at my school and how his family keeps bugging him that he hasn't brought me around them yet. I tried forget the fact I still need to take a pregnancy test so I could put all my focus on him.

"Babe." I interrupted his story.

"Yes?"

"Do you want children some day?" I asked mindlessly.

"I'm sure I would some day but not now, why what brought this up?" His answer when gentle and genuine.

"No reason, just asking." He slowly nodded slowly at my seemingly odd question.
