My dad grabs his car keys and yells "I am going to kill that son of a bitch". I haven't seen or ever heard my dad like this before. I stand up and grab my dad arm.
"Daddy it's not his fault".
"I am so disappointed in you Jessica". Crying I hug my dad. "Please you have to believe me I will never do something so irresponsible. Please believe me I just can't tell you the truth just not now".
"Just go to your room Jessica".
Damn you Gabby.
I text her.
You have to tell my parents the truth. I can't lie like this. Please just tell them.
GABBY: Jess I can't, Josh has he whole life ahead of him I don't want to be the one to shatter his dreams.
ME: if you don't. I will.
GABBY: fine I will come over later.
Hearing a commission downstairs, I hear my dad yelling and mom saying it's all your fault. I run downstairs and seeing my dad lifting somebody up the wall ready to smash their face in a sudden tilt of my dad head. I see Mitch.
I run over and pulling my dad away from him.
"IT'S NOT HIS FAULT OKAY". I shout "You guys need to relax".
"Relax Jessica you telling me and your dad to relax you 16 years old and you get knocked up. You have your whole life ahead of you and you do something so fucking stupid. I don't recognize my own daughter anymore and you say we need to relax. I have had it up to here. (she holding her hands over her head LOL). I am done Jessica just get out of my house NOW".
I cringe at the sound of her voice but I stand firm. Anger takes over my body I can't believe they doing this to me.
"FINE I will leave" I grab Mitch hand and lead him upstairs. I lock my room door and grab my traveling bag from my closet grabbing all my clothes I pack it in.
"Jess you don't have to do this".
"Nobody is going to stop me Mitch please just leave me and let me do this". He sighs and starts helping me.
Taking my phone, I dial Gabby number.
"Hello".
"Don't come over I need a place to stay my parents just kicked me out".
Silent for a few seconds.
"Ok you can come stay by me". I hang up
I have everything I need. "Take me to Gabby place please".
He nods his head I grab my bags and we leave. My parents not even stopping me, I feel hurt but I let it go.
We get in the car and Mitch grabs my hand "it will be fine Jess".
*PING*
I take my phone out and it's a message from Gabby.
Gabby: I don't think it's a good idea to come over to my place. Your parents just called and now my parents think you a bad influence on me sorry.
Without even noticing I start crying and Mitch pulls over.
"I have no place to go too. I am going to be homeless".
"You can come stay with me my parents won't mind".
We arrive at Mitch house and head inside.
"Mom I need to talk to you".
She walks out with a knife and I can't help but giggle.
"Hey Aunt" and before I could continue she grabs me in for a hug and says "please call me Caroline".
"Why are your eyes so red my dear come, come sit down".
"Mom, Jessica parents kicked her out and she needs a place to stay can she stay here"?
"Sure, there plenty spare bedrooms you more than welcome to stay as long as you like".
"Thank you so much Caroline".

I just finished packing my things I sit on the bed trying to adjust to my new room and new surroundings. It's the size of my room but x2.
I am supposed to leave with Jamie-Lynn tomorrow but I guess that won't be happening. I plug in my charger and charge my very dead phone. And head over to the bathroom and run myself a nice hot bath adding strawberry scented bubble bath. I get undress, and relax my mind deep in thought. How did I manage going from a straight A Student Nerd/four eyed girl? Too a now homeless "pregnant" one.
30 minutes later I hear a knock on the door. Not realizing I fell asleep.
"Jess are you okay?".
"Yeah sorry I dozed off I'll be out in just a sec okay".
I put on a sweatpants and hoodie. Tie my hair up in a messy bun and head out. Mitch sitting on my bed.
"Hey are you feeling okay"?
"Yip just trying to adapt".
"Dinner will be done soon I'll call you to come downstairs".
"Sure". He walks out and I lay down on my bed. Grabbing my phone, I see 20 miss calls and messages. I read through them.
JOSH: I just heard what happened where are you? I am worried.
JAMIE-LYNN: hey sis I am here if you want to talk.
JACK: WTF Jessy how can you allow that asshole to get you knocked up.
GABBY: Jess where are you. Please contact me.
I sigh and start replying to my messages.
ME2JOSH: Sup Big Bro. I am okay don't worry about me.
ME2JAMIE: Nothing to talk about. But I will be fine
ME2JACK: Uhm you the only asshole I see. Don't you dare speak bad about my Boyfriend.
ME2GABBY: I am staying with Mitch. Don't worry I will be okay your secret is safe with me.
........................................................................................................................
Sitting by the table it's only Mitch myself and Caroline.
"So, Jessica if you don't mind me asking why did your parents kick you out"?
"Uhm well, Aaaa they think I am pregnant but I am not it's actually my best friend that is and I couldn't bring myself to tell them it's her because she is my brother girlfriend and she doesn't want to tell anybody, and the fact that they wouldn't believe me I just had to get out".
I feel tears run down my face and suddenly arms wrap around me.
"OHHH sweet girl don't you worry you can stay here as long as you like".
"Thank you so much CarolineI truly appreciate it".
