"Alexander?" Eliza asked softly.

"You're....Pregnant?" He asks in the same tone.

"Yes, I've known for about two weeks now- And I've come to a conclusion." She said, looking at her feet.

"Are you keeping it?" Alex asks, making her look into his eyes.

"Yes, yes, I am. And I'm not giving the baby up for adoption- I'm raising it." Eliza says, smiling slightly.

"How far along are you?" He asked her.

"I'm not sure. My parents don't even know- only you, and Angelica. I've been wanting to make an appointment." Eliza responds.

"Can I be a part of the baby's life? I know that I've done some shitty stuff, but, I can't leave you on your own with this-" Eliza cuts him off.

"That's what I'm asking you, Alex. I want you to be a part of the baby's life, too. But, we're only teenagers. I didn't want to ruin your life." 

"Oh Eliza, you aren't ruining my life." Alex quivers. "You're making it better."

And the two kissed.
