"I'm what?!" I ask still shocked.

"You are pregnant Skylar" 

"I can't be. No. No. This can't be happening"

"Skylar what's wrong?" 

"I- It- I was raped!" I scream and start sobbing. I can't be pregnant. No! Everything was going on fine. I can't have a baby. I'm not even out of high school. I'm about to be a senior. I can't be a mom. No. I can't do this.

"Skylar" the doctor says when he looks at me. looking very concerned. 

"Skylar I knew you were raped. We did tests when you came in."

"Did you know I was pregnant?"

"No we can't figure it out that soon." 

All I do is nod. I can't believe this. Am I dreaming? I shake my head. I can't be a mother. How will I raise a child by my self?

"Skylar if you don't want the baby. There is the abortion option or adoption."

Abortion? Adoption? I don't know. I'm too young for this. I was raped. This baby wasn't made out of love. I want it to be loved. I don't know what to do. I don't want to bring a baby in the world knowing I'll have to tell it I was raped and that's how it got her. Or giving it away? I can't be pregnant in high school! What am I suppose to do now? 

"I don't know what to do" I softly say tears still streaming down my face.

"Well you can go home and think about it and let me know."

"No. I think I made up my mind."

"Okay"

"I want an abortion" 

"Very well. I'll set an appointment for tomorrow."

"Okay"

I say and walk out. I got in my car cried a little more and then made my way back home. As soon as I  am in the driveway I park and run into the house.

"Skylar are you okay?" I hear Ana ask once I get in. But I just ignore her and run to my room. I hit my bed and quietly cry to myself. 

"Sky?" I hear Ana and she softly knocks on my door. I didn't lock it so she comes in.

"Sky what's wrong?"

I don't say anything. I 'm too upset. I don't want anyone to find out.

"Skylar talk to me" She pleads and gives me her puppy eyes. 

"I can't" I say quietly

"Yes you can. I'm your best friend. We tell each other everything" 

"Ana I'm pregnant!" And I start crying again

She just stares at me. I keep crying. I don't know what else to do.

"H-h-how?"

"Dakota..." I say quitely 

Her eyes widen. "Oh no"

"Yeah."

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm getting an abortion tomorrow. I can't have a baby and I was raped I didn't have a choice."

"Okay. Are you sure about that. It is just a baby"

"Ana I can't"

"Okay. I'll be downstairs"

I lay back down. I lift my shirt so my stomach is exposed. And I touch it. There is another human in here. I sit there and think while rubbing my stomach. There is a tiny baby right here. In my stomach. Growing in me. I soon fell asleep with my hand still on my stomach. Knowing tomorrow I will have nothing in there.
