Pregnant At 17

SECRETS

Aimee's POV
I jumped up from my sleep screaming. "what's wrong?!" James asked, jumping up scared. He was sleeping on the mattress next to my bed. I looked at him with tears streaming down my face. "Nothing. Sorry for waking you up" I say, laying back down.

"Come here" he says, laying on my bed, wrapping his arms around my waist and I cuddle up to him laying my head on his muscular chest. "What happened?" He asked, rubbing my back. "I had a bad dream about Shawn's ex girlfriend trying to kill me and my baby" I say, with more tears streaming down my face.

"Shhhh. It'll be okay. I won't let that happen" he says and I smiled. I felt safe in his arms and all I could think about was how bad I wanted to kiss him. "Go back to sleep. It's 8 in the morning and you look exhausted" he says and shortly after I fell to sleep.

James POV
I looked at Aimee as she fell to sleep. I smiled just thinking about how gorgeous she looked. I would love to ask her out but I'm scared to fall for someone after what happened in my last relationship. I just shrugged it off. I slowly got up out of her bed, making sure I didn't wake her up.

I smiled grabbing a small gift I had gotten Aimee but totally forgot to give it to her. I walked downstairs to see Aimee's family and Shawn in the kitchen talking. I walked in smiling and said "thank you for letting me stay the night"

Aimee's mom nodded saying "you're welcome"

"Is Aimee okay? We heard her scream" Her dad asked and I nod. "She had a bad dream about Shawn's ex girlfriend" I answered and Shawn nods. "Yea. Selena Johnson" he says and my eyes widened. "She was your ex girlfriend?!" I say, trying not to yell. I know Selena.

"Yessss. Do you know her?" Shawn asked and I take a deep breath. "Uhhh no. I gotta go! When Aimee wakes up can you give this to her. It's a little something for the baby" I say, placing the gift bag on the table and quickly running out. I didn't want to scare them, especially Aimee.

Aimee's POV
I woke up to see that it was 11 AM and James wasn't in my room which made me frown. I got out of my head and put my hair in a messy bun like I always do. I looked to see that someone took the mattress out of my room and cleaned my room up.

I grabbed my phone and walked downstairs to see everyone is in the kitchen. Before I walked in I overheard them talking. "We cannot tell Aimee. Now I know why James didn't want to say how he kne-" Elena started to say but I cut her off.

"Dont tell Aimee what?" I asked and their eyes widened. "Uhhhh James got you a baby gift but we wanted to save it for the baby shower" dad says. I couldn't tell if he was lying or not so I just dropped it.

"I dont want a baby shower" I smiled, taking the gift from my mom. I opened it to see that he got me a new born outfit that said "Gorgeous just like my mommy" I smiled and pulled my phone out. I walk in the living room and called James.

After a few rings he finally picked up. "Hey Aimee" he says. He sounded like he's been crying and he sounded a little upset. "Are you okay? You sound upset" I asked.

"Y-yeah. What's up?" He says, with his voice cracking. I knew he was lying.

"Thank you for that gift. You didn't have to do that" I smiled.

"You're welcome. I have to go. Talk to you later" he says and with that he hung up. That was.....weird. I hear the front door close and I walked into the kitchen. I guess Amanda left because she wasn't there.

"You okay Aimee? You seem out of it" Jaxen asked and I sighed. "Yea. It's just that James was acting weird" I replied.

"Oh. We dont know anything" Shawn says, doing his nervous laugh. They definitely knows something and I want know. I just shrugged it off and everyone goes their separate ways leaving me alone in the kitchen. After 5 minutes of thinking I look to make sure no one could see me. I go get the box that my mom was hiding with the pictures and looked through them.

"Who the hell are you?" I asked myself as I kept looking through the pictures. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!" My mom yelled scaring me. She comes towards me snapping the box away from me. "You don't go snooping through people's stuff. That's disrespectful!" She scolded me.

"I want to know who that is!!" I snapped. "I already told you. That was your best friend!!" She snapped back. "I know you're lying. What?? Is she dead or something??" I asked and dad walks in.

"What the fuck is going on??" He asked, looking at my mom then at me. "Aimee is snooping through my stuff" mom says and I rolled my eyes. "Aimee get out please" dad says.

"You're going to have to tell her at some point baby" I overheard my dad tell my mom as I walked into the living room. "Hey Jeremy" I sighed sitting next to him on the couch. "What's up?"

"Do you know that box that mom has filled with pictures of two babies?" I asked and Elena's and Jaxen's eyes widened looking at us like they knew something. "Do you know who that other baby is?" I asked and he shook his head with no emotion. I sighed looking at Elena and Jaxen and they quickly shook their heads knowing I was about to ask them.

Why are they acting weird? Why is everyone being weird?? It's pissing me off. James acting weird and now my family is. What aren't they telling me??
