16 & Pregnant • z.m

Chapter 5

M E L A N I E

I walk back to Gracie and she was standing there staring at me, waiting for me.

"I told him" I whispered softly

"And?" She said

"Well it was weird because he would usually slap me but he just stood there" I say

"Umm... I hope you don't mind me asking but what exactly did he do.. that night?" she says

I was completely intoxicated, I didn't know what I was doing or what I was capable of. It was Gracie's 16th birthday and he came uninvited, drunk. One thing led to another and he took advantage of me. I hardly remember anything but I remember enough to know what happened, it was horrible. I had lost my virginity which I was hoping to keep for a long time after 16.

I had finished telling Gracie about what had happened and she gave me a big hug and a reassuring smile.

I can't believe it.. I can't believe that I have a daughter with the girl that I have bullied the 10 years and I can't believe that I was insulting my own baby. Stupid.

But I made it pretty clear that I didn't want the baby. Stupid.

I decided that maybe I was too harsh on Mel so I'm gonna text her... I have her number because I kinda sorta stole it to prank call her. I texted her

Hey Mel..

I'm sorry for acting like how I acted and I do want the baby and to help.

Zayn.
