"Pregnant?!" Dad yells angry.

I'm looking down to my hands and flinch a little. "I can't believe this." Mom says standing up.

"How? When?" Sheriff stilinski asks.

"A month ago." Stiles says softly.

Mom looks at me. "A month! How long have you known?" She asks getting on my level.

"A week or so." I say softly.

"What about nationals? Are you keeping it? What about your career? What about your potentials?" She asks squeezing my hands really hard.

I look away from her and she gets up. "You're not having it in my house. You have eight months to figure it out." She says and she leaves the room.

"Mom?" I cry.

She doesn't return and I look at her. "Mom? Please..." I sob but she's already gone.

Stiles hugs me and kisses the side of my head as I hold onto him completely breaking down.

I lay down in my bed in silence and stiles walks out of the bedroom. He lays down next to me and looks at the ceiling.

"We'll figure it out. You can move in with me and my dad." He sighs softly.

I don't move or react and he looks at me. He lays against me and grabs my hand. "You won't have to do this alone. I'll be with you every step of the way." He says softly.

I let the tears fall and he holds onto me in silence.

"I can't believe she's pregnant." Victoria says rubbing her forehead.

"I mean, are you sure she is?" Kate asks.

Chris sits down handing sheriff something to drink. "Yes, they showed us the test." He sighs.

Sheriff just stays quiet and drinks. "What about ballet? Is she stopping?" Kate asks.

Chris sighs and drinks his drink. "She wanted to win so badly. I can't believe they have been so irresponsible." Victoria says.

"She can move in with us. They can take care of the baby together." Sheriff says.

"You shouldn't kick her out." Kate starts an argument without thinking about it.

Victoria looks at her with raised eyebrows. "You're the one that got us in this mess. If you..." she says angry.

"Enough!" Chris yells at the women.

"She started all of this!" Victoria yells.

"Maybe I should leave. This seems to be more of a family matter." Sheriff says getting up.

Chris shows him out and the sheriff turns to him. "Why did you adopt her? I mean..." he feels a bit awkward by his question. "You have it all. Allison and a good job. Why adopt Alice?" He asks.

"Because my sister found her alone in the woods. She was that Jane Doe of eleven years ago. You guys searched for her parents for half a year before it became a cold case. In the meantime we had completely fallen in love by the sweet little five year old. So we got the clear and adopted her." Chris smiles at him.

"You guys did a good thing. They both are amazing girls. You should be proud." Sheriff smiles.

"We are. It's just sad this happens during the nationals. She could have gotten gold." Chris says.

"Maybe she still can." Sheriff says walking to his car.

"Maybe." Chris smiles and they shake hands.

"Maybe you should stay home." Stiles says rubbing my back while I'm hovering over the toilet.

I shake my head and Allison walks in. "Are you okay? Are you sick?" She asks while she ties my hair.

Neither answers and she shrugs it off. Throughout the day I follow my classes and after I go to the studio.

I call stiles but he doesn't answer so I get worried. I hear some loud growling and sit up in my bed. "What the hell?" I mumble as I look out my window and see someone running away.
