Two Sides One School

Always Here For You

(A couple months later)

Ben opened his front door, then Audrey was standing there.

"Hey I was just about to come get you. Is everything okay?" Ben checked.

"There's something I need to talk to you about." Audrey stated.

"Okay." Ben stepped out and shut the door behind him.

"Can... Can we talk in your car?" Audrey asked.

"Sure." Ben nodded, then they got into Ben's car. "So what's up?" 

"I think I'm gonna have to quit the cheerleading team." Audrey told him.

"Why? Don't you still have a few months left?" Ben was asking.

"Yeah, but I don't want to risk anything." Audrey replied.

(At school)

"Chad!" Ben called to him.

"Hey man what's up?" Chad turned to him.

"Audrey told me she's gonna quit the cheerleading team." Ben told him.

"Okay? And why are you telling me?" Chad questioned.

"Because you're the father of her baby, aren't you?" Ben checked.

"Y-yeah." Chad nodded. 

"So maybe you should be there for her and comfort her." Ben explained.

"Y-yeah your right." Chad nodded. 

"Good. Alright I'll see you later man."  Ben said, then walked away.

"Hey." Harry greeted Audrey at her locker.

"What do you want?" Audrey wondered not looking at him.

"You've been avoiding me." Harry told her.

"Well what am I supposed to do? You want me to be all over you?" Audrey was asking.

"Well no, but..." Harry was going to say.

"Look Harry, what happened between us was a one time thing. It's best if we keep our distance." Audrey was telling him.

"So you're gonna let everyone think Chad is the father?" Harry questioned.

"Yeah. He agreed to do this for us. You should lucky. Now no one has to know the truth." Audrey responded.

"What's so bad about people knowing the truth?" Harry asked.

"Look Harry, I don't want to have this conversation right now." Audrey told him, then walked away.

(Later)

"So any plans for after school Ben?" Chad asked.

"No." Ben said.

"Yeah me neither. I might go into town." Chad explained.

"Shouldn't you be spending time with Audrey?" Ben wondered.

"Why?" Chad gave Ben a questioned look.

"Because that's your baby she's carrying." Ben answered.

"So? That means I have to be with her 24/7?" Chad questioned.

"Well no, but you should still care more." Ben replied.

"You know what Ben..." Chad was going to say.

"Actually Ben, Chad doesn't have to be with her." Harry spoke up.

"And why's that?" Ben looked over at Harry and crosses his arms.
