Crazy, Beautiful Mistake. [ON HOLD INDEFINITELY]

Telling The Parents.

I woke up from Kaiya rudely splashing water on my face, "You couldn't find a different way to do that?" I groaned.

"Well I could've slapped you," she clarified.

"Well thanks for that then I guess," I sat up and just stayed on the floor a couple more seconds before I stood up. "Let's just go watch the movie I can't think about this right now, okay?"

"Sure whatever you wanna do but just know I'm here for you girl. Always!" I instantly teared up and hugged her. "How did I get so lucky to have the bestest best friend in the whole world?" I asked her.

"Right! I really am one of a kind," she said while flipping her hair.

"Come on!" I laughed at her and pulled her along.

We found the right number theatre that was showing our movie and found seats right in the middle. There wasn't too many people in the theatre which was nice because I didn't feel like being in a crowded room all of a sudden. The movie was amazing I hope one day I find a love as strong as theirs. Not anytime soon though I feel as if I'm too young for love. Which makes me feel like such a hypocrite because I'm seventeen and pregnant, what kind of role model will I make to my son or daughter? I thought to myself.

After the movie I drove Kaiya back to her house and she continued to sit in the car. "Before you say anything which I know you are can we just talk about this when I have my mind straight I'm still wrapping my mind around the idea that there's a human being growing inside me," I sighed.

She hesitated at first but finally answered, "Yeah just let me know when you're ready to talk, okay?"

"Okay," I told her while she started to get out the car.

She paused and turned around, "One question though," she said. I nodded at her to go ahead and ask and she continued, "Are you going to tell Jackson?"

The color drained from my face when I heard her words and my eyes widened. "I wasn't even thinking about that! I don't know should I?!" Just those few words that came out her mouth instantly made me start to panic.

"I don't know what you should do but I only asked so that you would think about it, okay?" she asked. I nodded my head at her to let her know I'll think about everything and for her not to worry. She made her way into her house and I drove away wondering if I should tell Jackson. He made it fairly obvious I was just a one night fling already forgotten so maybe it's best if I don't tell him. I don't know but the one thing I do know is I need to tell my parents and boy were they going to be disappointed in me. I feel like I've failed them as a daughter because they go out of their way to be such good parents to me I just can't help but feel like a complete and total let down.

I parked my car in the driveway and noticed my dad was home early and thought to myself 'wow that's weird.' As soon as I opened the door my mother called my name so I made my way to the living room where I heard her voice come from. Her and my dad were both sitting on the couch as if they were waiting for me and I instantly tensed up. I couldn't help but feel like they knew and that scared me to death.

"Sit down Lani," my dad told me. At least he called me Lani so I knew he wasn't mad at me which was a huge relief. I sat down on the chair near the couch and waited for them to say why they wanted to talk to me. Then I remembered, "Hey mom did you put the pads and tampons in my room? I didn't know if you got my text message and just wanted to..."

"Aulani I know you don't need them," she told me cutting me off and I gave her a confused expression.

"How?" was all I could say.

She knowingly looked at me, "Honey I'm your mom I just knew. You hadn't asked me to buy you your feminine products like you always do and I had to remind you. Not to mention you always get it on the same day every month."

"I'm so sorry mommy and daddy I never meant to let you guys down it just happened I don't know why I was so stupid he's the school player I should've known better because now he's been ignoring me ever since," I put my face in my hands and started to cry.

My dad got up from his seat to walk over and kneel in front of me lifting my face he said, "Lani," and I gave a half smile knowing he was still calling me by my nickname as he continued. "You didn't let us down you're a teenager we knew it would happen eventually we just always thought you would be smart about it and talk to us about birth control or use protection."

"What you're dad is trying to say is yes we may be a little disappointed in how you went about it but we still love you and we'll be with you no matter what you decide to do," my mom stated. "But just remember you were woman enough to make that step you should be woman enough to handle the consequences."

I looked at her confused and my dad noticed. "She means Lani that you should keep the baby he or she is your responsibility now and we'll help you out however we can but you need to realize that the life you have inside of you is yours to take care of," he let me know as he made his way back to his seat.

"What if I'm not ready to be a mom? Why can't I consider adoption?" I asked them... more like pleaded to them.

"You should have thought about whether you were ready before you participated in such a grown activity," my father said. "You were grown enough to have sex now be the mature girl that we know you are and be grown enough to take care of what transpired."

"We're not trying to come down hard and judge you," my mom let me know. "We just want you to be an adult about the situation starting with the father, have you told him?"

"No I don't think I want to," I whispered to them.

"Well sweetie he may not be father material but he at least deserves to know he has a child on the way you never know he might surprise you," my mom said while smiling to herself as if she remembered something. "Your father definitely surprised me."

I snapped my head between my parents trying to figure out what she meant by that but they stayed silent so I made a mental note in my mind to remember to ask them about that another time. I also made the decision to tell Jackson tomorrow morning at school. What's the worst that could happen?
