Chapter Forty One - "I Feel Happy!"
___

Avery's P.O.V

When I was younger, my father would always tell me to be smarter; don't try to fit into the crowd by doing stupid things that will make people think less of you. He said to me to be smarter and make better decisions than my mother did and finish school, go to collage then settle down and have a family if you would like one; never rush into anything and ruin your future.

My mother had me when she was still in school. She was young and still a child basically and thats what made her parents hate her. The only people that were by her side were Aunty Heather and my father. My mother always told me to wait and be patient and I promised her I would but now, I don't know what to do.

I have watched many movies of teenagers have babies at the age of sixteen - a year younger than me - and a lot of people left her side as to the announcement of the baby. I always said that the people were stupid and thoughtless but look at me.

I, Avery Grace Leighton, is going to have a baby at the age of seventeen. The girl who promised not to rush into things and not make the same mistakes as my mom but that totally slipped past my mind. The girl who planned her whole life out; finish school and settle down but look at me. I've ruined my plans and dreams.

Im going to be known as the school's slut because I am carrying a child in my stomach at the age of seventeen and the worse thing about it is that I don't know how to tell everyone. Claire doesn't even know yet and I don't even feel like telling her since I'm scared of her reaction. Logan doesn't know and I don't even have a clue of what I'm going to tell him. My family doesn't even know and I'm too scared to know how they are going to act.

What is my mother going to think? Will she disown me like her parents did to her?

What is my father going to think? Will he be the protective father he is and kill Logan or kill me?

What is Claire going to think? Will she leave me?

What is Joshua going to think? Will he tell everyone at school and make fun of me?

What is Logan going to think? Will he deny that the baby isn't his and run away, leaving me to look after the child?

I'm such a mess.

I hear my phone vibrate and I jump up to see that Claire has sent me a message and I have a missed call from Logan.

Claire-Bear: Hey, you still awake?

By the way, it's three o'clock in the morning.

Me: Yeah

Claire-Bear: How you feeling?

Should I tell her? I mean she is my best friend but that doesn't change the fact that I am still scared of what or how she might react.

Me: Claire, I'm pregnant.

I feel my heart race as I look at my message, re-reading it over and over again until I finally register it in my head.

I'm pregnant.

My phone starts to ring and I notice that it is Claire. I suck in a deep breath and answer it, placing it to my ear.

"Your what?" Claire gasps into the phone and I sigh, laying down on my bed.

"I'm going to have a baby." I mumble and I hear Claire squeal after a long and painful five second silence.

"I cant believe it! Wait, did you do it again?" Claire asks and I place my hand on my small belly, smiling at the thought of a little human being growing inside of me.
