Today is the day I've  been dreading since I found out that I am pregnant.  I was waiting  nervously  for Ricky  she showed up with a chocolate doughnut for  me since that was what I  have been craving lately. As usual he greeted me then put his hand on my belly and greeted the baby too. On the way to school  we were singing and dancing like we always do. When we got there I felt my stomach drop. I guess Ricky noticed I  was nervous because  he said "don't  worry everything  will be fine today, you have me and your friends." I nodded and rushed  into meet Ben, Adrian, and Grace.  They were all waiting for us we all had the same first period.

"Guys can you tell that I'm  pregnant? I wore a tight shirt not even  thinking that you might  be able to  tell." "No...." they  all said at once. I knew they were lying but I wanted to believe them. I went to the bathroom in every class to either pee or throw up. Good thing I  have a doctor's note to use the bathrooms whenever I  need to.

Finally after 5 long classes lunch was here even thiugh I had no appetite I  was happy to see my friends.

"Here  Amy "Ricky  said handing me lunch.

"Ricky  I really can't  eat anything." I said.

"Yeah I noticed but you need to eat something so I just packed  some crackers and water." He said.

"You're the best!"I said. Crackers and water are the the only things I've been able to hold down in weeks.

Finally the first day is over! We were all going to Ben's like we always do  after the first day of school. Then Grace and Adrian came up to me and said they didn't want to go. I knew something was up because they love going there. So we went to my house instead. That's when they told me.

“Ok the real reason we didn't want to go to Ben's is because he didn't want you there." She said “Why?" I asked curiously. “He feels weird about you being pregnant" Grace replied.

Everyone went home and I laid in bed thinking about how horrible it was that my best friend doesn't want to be around me.
