I'm about a month pregnant now and these past few weeks have not been fun. I've had some pretty bad morning sickness and I can't eat super spicy food. I've been working on some songs and thinking a lot about life once the baby is here. Yeah, I know I should stop worrying so much but I can't help it.

I've been putting on a smile for everyone so they don't worry about me. Mom and marissa have hardly been talking and it honestly scares me. They've been best friends since they were little kids they can't get a divorce now.

Everything is hitting me hard right now and I break down crying. I want so badly to tell Demi but she thinks I'm fine.

"Hey Amanda my parents are here for dinner come on down" Maddie says

"I'll be down in a minute" I tell her

I go in my bathroom and wash my face then go downstairs.

"Hi Amanda" Dianna smiles

"Hi Dianna, hi Eddie" I say giving each of them a hug

We sit down and Demi puts the food on the table. We each make a plate and start to eat.

"How's everyone been?" Dianna asks

"We've been good" Demi says "and we found out some pretty exciting news"

"Oh yeah, what's that?" Eddie asks

"I'm pregnant" I say in almost a whisper

"Congratulations" Dianna and Eddie say

"Thank you!" I smile

"I'm gonna be a great aunt at 12 years old... COOL!" Maddie says

Everyone laughs and Maddie's face turns red.

"So have you three been getting along?" I ask

"We have actually" Dianna says

"Good!" I smile

"Maddie we were wondering if you'd like to move back in" Eddie says

"I'll think about it" Maddie says

We all talk for a bit then Dianna and Eddie go home. I'm glad they did because I need to finish up the present I'm making for Demi. I made her a scrapbook of a bunch of things that have happened since I moved in. From the paint war when I first moved in all the way up to telling her about the baby. I also bought her a locket and put a picture of Tristan and I in it.

After putting the finishing touches in the scrapbook and wrapping her presents I hide them and go to the music room. I need to let some emotions out through music.

I've been thinking about my birth parents and how I want them to know they're going to be grandparents. The problem is I don't really want them in my life.

I guess I'll just think about it for now and focus on Demi's birthday, which is tomorrow!
