"Sophia!" I call her over and she walks up to the front door,

"Heh," she says, "Gotta go." she begins to walk away but I grab her arm,

"So, which one of you are here for Sophia?" I ask and Jake walks in,

"Can I talk to you, Soph?" he asks and she nods,

"Wanna go upstairs?" Gray asks and I nod, shutting the door behind him and walking up to my room. I shut the door behind us and he sits on the bed, "Listen, Im really sorry for putting you in that awkward position last night, I really shouldn't have said anything, especially not that."

"Grayson, it's fine. I'm just sorry about my response, but it's okay." I say and he nods, "I don't have to act, I still love you."

"Yeah?"

"Yeah, you goof." I laugh and he kisses me softly. The rest of the day, we watch movies, eat and talk.

"Ugh, I have to go." he groans and I sit up,

"Okay, I'll walk you out." I stand up and we go downstairs. I open the door and he kisses me, "I'm really happy we're back."

"I know, me too." he smiles, "I'll call you later."

I walk into the kitchen, my whole family sitting at the table and I stop in my tracks, then slowly walk to the fridge and I grab a water and turn around. "Okay, what is with the weird silence as I walk into the room?"

"Sit, we need to talk about everything." my mom says and I sit at the open seat, "So, Sophia is pregnant."

"Yes, I know."

"Sophia, are you planning on keeping the baby?" my dad asks and she shrugs,

"Jake wants me to, but is Jake really the father figure I want for a baby?" she asks and I shake my head,

"No, nope." I say,

"You should have thought about that before --"

"Mom, I know. I will probably put the baby up for adoption, but I have another eight months to decide."

"Okay, now back to Grayson."

"Back to Grayson? When were we on the subject?"

"We just want you to be careful." Sawyer says, "I like Grayson, he's chill, but he hurt you and you forgave him really quickly."

"You guys don't know the full story on what happened. I love Grayson, he won't hurt me again." I defend him and they all look at me.

"We want things to work out for you, but Grayson, have you seen him? Girls will be all over him a--"

"I was dating him for three years!" I exclaim, "I mean, yes, I need to be careful but I doubt he will hurt me again. He loves me, he's sorry and he was hurt, he regrets what he did."

"That's what he's telling you," my mom says and I shake my head,

"Guys, I appreciate your worry but I'm sure I'll be fine." I sigh and stand up,

"Sit down." my dad says and I groan, "We aren't done."

"We leave for vacation in a month, and you guys know we are very good friends with Lisa and Sean. They will be joining us on vacation, so we ask there be no fighting or drama when we leave. If anything needs to be resolved, do it within the next few weeks."

"Got it, are we done now?" I stand up and they nod as I make my to my room. I close the door behind me and I call Mariana, "Guess what my family just said?"

"What?"

"To be careful with Gray. They think he'll hurt me again."

"Sky, he's done it before." she sighs and I look down, "You never know what he'll do until he does it, so just take their advice and be careful."

OH MY GOSH ITS BEEN SO LONG IM SO SORRY
