Addison Pov:

Why would I meet him, I knew exactly how the conversation was gonna play out, but no, I wanted to think there was actually something worth hearing. I can't keep going on like this. I finally pulled into my driveway to see my family was home.

A: Hey, Mom

S: Hey, Addison, it looks like you've been crying. What's going on

A: Bryce is back, and he wanted to talk, but I wished I would have never gone, I said, sobbing

S: Aww, Addison, I'm so sorry. I promise things will get better. Is there anything you need?

A: No, I'm just gonna go upstairs to my room and call it a night

Addison got to her room and looked under her bed for the box she had tucked all the way in the back. I guess it's time to face the truth, I thought to myself. I opened the box to find the pregnancy test with the ultrasounds. My mind then went back to that time.

Flashback: End Of Sophmore Year

Addison Pov:

I can't believe I'm pregnant. Bryce is gonna wanna leave me, I said, crying. I then called the one person I knew I could talk to no matter what.

On The Phone

D: Hey Addi, what's up

A: I need you, dixie. Do you think you think you could come over its an emergency

D: Of course, Addi, I'm on my way

End of Phone Call

I sat on the bathroom floor and just stared at the test. How could this have happened? We were careful. I can't have a kid; I'm still a kid. I then heard the door open. When I turned to look who it was, it had been my best friend, Dixie. She looked at the test and just hugged me, although she didn't say anything I knew she had understood. She then looked up and told me, "You got to tell him, Addison, he has a right to know, even if he doesn't wanna stay. Looking at her, I knew she was right, but I had wished she was wrong. I quickly sent a text to Bryce to meet him at the spot and told him it was important. He responded fast, saying that he was on his way. Dixie decided it would be best to drive me because I was too emotional. As I pulled up, I saw Bryce. He looked happy with no worries too bad, that was all about to change.

B: Hey love, how are you?

A: Hey, Bryce, look, I need to say something, and I don't know how you will react, so please let me get this off my chest.

B: Okay, Adds, you're scaring me. Did you cheat or something cause we can work it out

A: Bryce, I'm pregnant. I haven't been feeling the best, so I thought it was important to take a test plus I was late. I didn't think there was any possible way since we had always been careful, but I guess not careful enough

B: I don't know what to say, but know that we are in this together. I don't want to be like my dad. I never want our child to wish they knew their dad. Yes, we are young, but we will figure this out together.

They got up and hugged each other and said I love you at the same time. Bryce had to go, so they parted ways.

Bryce POV:

I can't believe Addison is pregnant. I feel like I just ruined her whole life. She had so many plans that probably will have to get put on hold because of me. I was supposed to be going home to sway, but I couldn't. So I drove up to the viewpoint and began to think about how Addison and my life would never be the same with a baby. Just then, my phone began to ring. I looked at the collar id, and it read baby.

B: What's up Adds

A: I don't mean to overwhelm you, but I just wanted to tell you I've made an appointment to see if the baby is healthy or not. I made it Friday morning at 10 since we don't have school, but I know you have a game later

B: I'll be there. How about I pick you up at 8, and we can get breakfast before the appointment.

A: Sounds great. I love you bye

B: I love you too, and then I hung up the phone.

I then began to drive back to sway. It would most likely be a good decision not to tell anyone right now because I'm still processing. To my amusement, the only person who had been Josh, my best friend. He looked at me and could tell I was stress. He asked if I wanted to talk about it. So I told him the story. I knew that my secret would be safe with him for the fact that we understood each other in ways no one else could.

*Time Skip to Friday

Still, Bryce Pov:

I woke up super early because today was the day of the appointment, and I didn't want to be late, plus I had promised my princess breakfast. As soon as I finished getting ready, the clock read 7:30. I decided to pick up some flowers on the way to Addisons house. As I pulled up, I texted Adds. I was outside due to the fact I didn't want to wake anyone up. Addison came out in a hoodie and sweats. Oh, how that was my favorite thing on her. After breakfast, we began to drive to the hospital, but when I looked at Addison, she was nervous. I put my hand on her thigh and reassured her that everything would be fine. Addison had to sign some paperwork when we got there, so I began to look around. My mind began to think about how many times we would begin to sit in this doctor's office, waiting to see our baby and hear their heartbeat. It made me happy that I got to be with Addison, but it made me feel luckier to have a child with her, even if we were young. The doctor called us into their office soon and asked Adds to lift her shirt enough so that she could put the gel on her stomach. Adds looked scared, so I grabbed her hand and held it, giving her a light squeeze. After moving the machine around Addison, belly, the doctor was able to tell us that she was 6 weeks pregnant and that she should be careful because she was still in the early stages of pregnancy. After the appointment, I dropped Adds off because I had to get ready for the game. When I showed up at the field, I was more nervous than usual since we are playing our rival. I knew that Adds would be there, but my mind kept thinking about her and the baby's safety. We had won our game, and thank god I would like to think that Adds and the baby had been our good luck charm.

*Time Skip: 2 weeks later

Addison Pov:

Lately, everything had been going so well. Bryce and I were on the best terms, and we had been the strongest. The baby had been doing well, and Bryce and I were soon going to tell our friends. But, today, I was going out with Jaden. We hadn't hung out in a while and felt that it was best to go to a movie and then dinner. I got a message from Bryce that said, "Be safe. I love both of my babies," I smiled. He is gonna be such a great dad. All of a sudden, Jaden looked over at me. It better be Bryce with the way your smiling. Of course, it is Jaden. Only he could make me this happy. As I was about to respond to the text message being we were almost at the movie but stuck at a stop sign, I felt huge pain. Jaden had told me that a car just rear-ended us and to remain calm, but I couldn't. I was scared for my baby. I then told Jaden, "I'm pregnant and in the early stages, but something doesn't feel right. I said, crying. Jaden then called an ambulance right away and told me he would contact Bryce to meet me at the hospital while he dealt with the accident report. The whole way to the hospital, all I could think about my baby, and I just hoped that they would be okay. Bryce had arrived at the hospital shortly after me and sat in the room with me, waiting for the results. The doctor came in and said, "I'm sorry to inform you, but the hit was too bad, and the baby didn't make it. I couldn't believe my ears I began crying so bad to only see that Bryce was crying as well. Just then Bryce got a call.....
