-Jess’s point of view-
‘You’re what’ He began stuttering. He was in shock yet he sounded kind of angry. I knew it wasn’t a good idea to tell him. What the fuck have I done? Time felt like it froze I looked down at the ground. I can’t believe I’ve ruined everything.
‘I’m pregnant.’
As I spoke I heard the door close.I looked up and Jai and Luke were both standing in the room looking at us in shock. Beau stood up and left the house before I had a chance to say anything else. Ergh I’m only 17years old and managed to get myself pregnant. I felt dirty. My parents were going to flip. They were against everything. Smoking, drinking and sex before marriage. Everything. I always knew I wouldn’t have them but now I won’t have Beau either. I just broke down crying again. Jai and Luke come up and hugged me.
‘He’s just in shock, he will come back and everything will be fine. I promise’ Luke tried comforting me.
‘It’s all my fault. I’m such a stupid slut. I should’ve known going out drinking every night and sleeping with him a lot was stupid. Getting knocked up at 17? Ergh and now i’ve lost him.’
‘No Jess! It isn’t your fault. He is the reason your pregnant. If you meant anything to him when he gets back he will talk to you. You haven’t lost anyone, you will always have us.’ Jai said.
It took over an hour and they had finally stopped me from crying. I felt terrible for them. It wasn’t their fault yet I unloaded everything I should be talking to Beau about with them. They decided they would cook us some food and have a little party to cheer me up. They invited everyone else round to see me since no-one had seen me for over a week. Everyone came around quickly when they heard I was there. It was like old times although there was no Beau. Luke and Jai said they would let him come back in his own time and they both sat with me round the table while we ate.
‘So how was Perth?’ Ashley asked me.
‘Ermm, I never actually went to Perth.’ I felt like I was going to cry again. I think Luke and Jai noticed this as they came up to me and both held my hand. ’I didn’t leave my house I needed to be alone.’
‘What’s the matter Jess?’ They all seemed concerned. I didn’t answer. Would I lose them too?
‘Jess, you can tell us. We won’t judge, we’ll be here no matter what.’ Gabby smiled over to me.
‘I’m pregnant with Beaus child and he just left when I told him and he probably hates me.’ I started crying. Everyone just bombarded with me with hugs. The tears turned to laughter as we broke apart.
‘We are all here for you Jess.’ Jenny smiled at me. ‘Seriously, if you keep the baby or abort we will never leave you.’
‘But Beau has.’ I frowned.
Just then the front door went. Everyone looked up. It was Beau. Everyone just looked at him in disgust. Then they slowly came around me for support. He looked around for a few moments before walking over to me.
-Beaus point of view-
What had I done? I just left the girl I love crying when she told me she was carrying my baby. I’m such an idiot. I decieded to make things better. I went to the clinic and picked up some leaflets of teen pregnancy. I then decided I needed to do something for Jess. She is my everything and I must of let her down and made her feel terrible when I just left. I had to man up. I walked back into the house, everyone was there, surrounding Jess.
-Jess’s point of view-
He handed me a card and I opened it there and then.
* To my beautiful girlfriend Jess,
I’m sorry for leaving but I needed to clear my head. I will never leave you.
Love Beau*
I looked up and began crying and he gave me the biggest hug ever and a bunch of roses and chocolates.
‘I’m sorry for just getting up and leaving. I was in shock. I will never leave you and I will be here every step of the way. I love you Jessica.’
I blushed as he wiped away my tears and kissed my forehead.
‘Awww’ Everyone else laughed behind us.
‘Omg I’m totally the God father’ Skip spoke up.
‘You’re kidding right? Like i’m letting you near my first born child’ Beau joked.
We decided to make a night of it and we all stayed at the boys house that night. We decieded to watch a load of films. Luke and Petula were asleep cuddled up on the arm chair. Ashely was on Skips lap, both of them curled up, sleeping. Jai and Jenny laying on the mattress on the floor, asleep. James and Gabby were asleep on the same sofa that me and Beau were on. It was only me and Beau awake. None of them had blankets so I stood up and put blankets over them all before getting me and Beau a blanket. I was cuddling him on his knee, my head resting on his shoulder.
‘Beau, will you come with me to tell my parents tomorrow? I’m scared to how they will react.’
‘Sure, I will always be by your side. You’re going to be a brilliant Mum.’
