Brielle Pov-

When I saw pieces of that night. How I was screaming for him to leave me asking over and over. How I just laid there like a doll that's self control got taken away. Every feeling I could feel from that night just came rushing back. I don't wanna remember any parts of that night ever. I don't want to be reminded every time I come to school, but I will be. Hopefully when our friends are together and he's around we can keep our distance with each other.

~One Month Later~

School has kept me busy and so have the girls. Kailyn and Tyrique are dating, Holland and Tyrique's friend Cameron are dating, and so is Yariah and Tyrique's friend Jaden. Gwen was already dating a boy named Nathan before we met Tyrique and his crew. The only single ones in out little crew is me and the one that tortured me. I've learned that his name is Montez, but I'm still not to fond of him so I don't speak to him or of him.

Lately I've been throwing up everything I eat and I can't stay energized for more than four hours. Everyone started asking me questions on how I suddenly got "thicker" or why I'm gaining so much weight. I take offense to the second question more than the first because I am gaining weight and I don't know what from. The last time I been to the doctor's office I weighed 123 lbs, but now I am 132 and its only been two months. My shirts are starting to get tighter, I feel uncomfortable in high-waisted pants, and I can't tighten my belts how I want too.

Right now both of our crews are having lunch together at Applebee's. We had already ordered everything so now we were just talking and eating. While everyone was talkin to each other I grabbed the Parmesan cheese and put it on my plate, mixed it with some ketchup and hot sauce, then put it on my hamburger bun. I felt a bunch of eyes in me so I looked up and saw everyone staring at me. I looked right back at them and went back to eating my burger.

A couple of minutes after I got done with my food, my stomach started hurting. I was moving around showing that I was uncomfortable and clutching my stomach. My girls started watching me noticing something was wrong. "Are you okay?" my cousin Holland asked "Yea, I'm fi--" my sentence was cut off due to me rushing to the bathroom. Once I made it to the bathroom stall I started puking my insides up.

After I was done I looked up and noticed all the girls staring at me with concerned looks except for Kailyn. She was staring at me with tears in her eyes probably thinking the same thing as me. I looked away from her and put my head down. After I rinsed my mouth out we all walked out together, but Kailyn pulled me back. "What" I asked her "I know your thinking the same thing I'm thinking" she answered.

"No I don't read minds so, what are you thinking?" I responded smartly. "You don't have to get a attitude I'm just tryna help you out" "Well if I wanted your help maybe I would've asked, but since I didn't; don't offer it anymore" I stated already irritated with her. "Don't get mad at me because you're the one pregnant... I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that" she said covering her mouth at the end of her statement. I just looked at her shocked and walked off. I went to the table, grabbed my stuff, and left.

I don't have to sit and hear insults that aren't even true. When I got home I went straight to bed thinking about what Kailyn had said. 'Could it be' I thought; I am having all the symptoms and gained the most weighted I've ever had in two months. I started softly crying then it got heavier thinking about the I outcome of my stomachaches. I slowly started drifting to sleep. At 4 in the morning I got woken up by my phone constantly ringing. I looked over to see who it was, when I noticed it was an unknown number.

Montez Pov-

I'm scared out of my mind right now. I'm finally trying to talk to her again since that night. I got her number from her friend Gwen since she's the only one I don't get a weird vibe from. I've been calling back to back now for ten minutes and I'm about to give up and she doesn't answer this call.

"Uh... Hello" her groggy voiced answered. I was so scared now that she answered that I didn't respond. "Look if you was calling to play on my phone you could've at least called private" she said clearly annoyed. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you. I just wanted to make sure you alright." I said terrified of what her response was gonna be. She started breathing heavy then then she asked with a shaky voice "Your the one from the party aren't you?" I could tell she was about to start crying by how heavy her voice got. "Yea, but I regret everything I did to you. I only did it to prove that I wasn't a lame or anybody's shadow. I wanted people to know me for being fun or a dare devil, I wanted a title. I just wanted some credit for something I did, instead of getting credit for being a shadow. I wanted everyone to know my name for me and not know me as Tyrique's friend." I said getting everything I needed off my chest. I heard her sniffling on the other end and I felt waves of guilt cover me. "I'm sorry, if you don't want to accept my apology I understand." I said right before I was about to hang up. "Why me though? I didn't do anything but trust you which I see I was wrong for doing. I just wanted someone to stay with me that night til I found my friend, but she ended up having to find me unfortunately with you. Do you know how I feel right now? I feel like I was used for popularity and now my teenage years are put on pause. Do you know what I mean when I say that?" she asked now overwhelmed with crying.

I sat there trying to remember if I did what I think I did. I had to let it simmer in that I was about to be an 18 year old father and I don't even know my child's mother name. I was so caught up with making a name for myself that I forgot to protect me and her from something we were far from ready for. "So, your pregnant?" I finally asked. "Yes, but I don't want you involved until I have the baby" she said quietly.

I don't know why but that made me mad. I know that the way we got into this predicament wasn't very welcoming, but I think that off I helped make them, then I should be able to be involved both when its a unborn and when it's a newborn.
