Simon's POV"Brianna, what is this the principal says about an award ceremony?" I asked.
She shrugged.
"Don't shrug, she says you made honor role! That's a huge thing!"
"I guess." She moped.
"What's wrong?"
She sat down at the table next to me.
"Khloe is always gone, I barely get to see her anymore."
"Oh baby." I kissed her forehead.
"It's fine though, I have a project to do."
I tried to console her more but she walked outside.
It was hard to believe that soon she would be a teenager. I wish I could make her feel better, but Khloe was in love and I remember that feeling of just starting out. Of course I was still head over heels in love with Jasper but that feeling when you first start is like no other. You cannot get enough of the person and you long to get more even if you just left them. I could understand both sides, but maybe I would talk to Khloe later on. Khloe walked in the kitchen just as I was thinking about the situation.
"Hey, Spencer is in the back but I need to talk to you for a minute." I told her.
"What's up?"
"You and Spencer have been dating for a few months and then some, but I just want to give you a friendly reminder that maybe you could spend a little bit more time with Bri."
She immediately looked guilty.
"I don't say this to make you feel guilty, she actually came to me and talked to me about it. She misses you so maybe every once in a while spend some time with her. Maybe even include her on your dates somehow. I'm sure she wouldn't mind getting to know Spencer." I told her.
"Thanks for the advice dad."
She hugged me before heading outside.
Khloe's POV"Hey, dad told me you were out here." I smiled.
"Yeah, just helping Brianna out with some English homework." Spencer said.
I smiled.
"Hey kid, how about we go see a movie soon?" I asked Brianna.
"Really?!" She gasped.
"Yeah, just you and me." I ruffled her hair.
"Well, actually. Can Spencer come too? He's pretty cool."
I giggled, "Yes, Spencer can come as well."
"Yes!"
She went back to her homework but seemed a lot more happier then she was when I first came outside.
"See you later, we'll make the plans when I get home okay?" I told her.
She nodded.
I grabbed onto Spencer's hand and we went to take a walk around the block.
"So how are you feeling?" Spencer asked.
"I'm still sick, it comes and goes at this point. I don't know what's going on it's been the longest running stomach bug I've ever had." I told him.
"Maybe you should have one of your co-workers check it out."
I nodded.
...
"What?!" I gasped.
"What's going on?" Pop asked walking in the bathroom.
"I've gained weight?!"
He looked uncomfortable suddenly, it was one of those moments where he didn't know the right thing to do or say.
"You are beautiful." He said.
"Thanks." I said.
He walked away and left me in the bathroom. My brain began to spin as I thought of what could be going on. My stomach lurched as I thought of the only possibility.
"Aunt Sarah!" I screamed.
She came running into my bathroom.
"What?!" She gasped.
"I think I may be pregnant." I cried.
She looked at me with shock. The rest was a blur as we drove to get a pregnancy test. I remember sitting on the bathroom floor with her as we awaited the results. How could this of happened? When we ended up doing it it wasn't even planned, it just happened in the moment. Just one time and we haven't been dating a year yet. I was barely making it as a trainee at the hospital and he just landed a job at the tech school.
"What am I going to do?!" I sobbed.
Aunt Sarah pulled me in her arms and rocked me. I wanted so much more for myself, I overcame so much growing up and I felt like a failure by becoming pregnant. I wasn't even married and how was Spencer even going to take it? What if he didn't want kids? We haven't even talked about about children.
"We will figure it out." Sarah said.
"What are dad and pop going to think?" I asked.
"Let's worry about that if we come to it."
The timer on my phone went off and I stared at the little white stick that would determine my future.
Pregnant"No!" I cried.
I sobbed into Sarah's shoulder and we sat on the bathroom floor for what seemed like years.
...
I sat on the front steps waiting for Spencer to walk over. My phone buzzed in my pocket.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Khloe?"
I recognized the voice as Brad, the supervisor at the hospital.
"Brad, hi." I said.
I could only imagine how horrible my voice was from crying so much.
"How are you?" He asked.
"I'm fine." I told him, lying.
I waited as he took a deep breath.
"Listen. Things at the hospital have been slow, and I just got out of a meeting where we went over the numbers. Khloe, you are a talented girl and I see so much in your future. Unfortunately I'm afraid that we have to let you go." He stated.
"What?!" I gaped.
"You're fired, and I wish I didn't have to do that but you were the last one hired." He sighed.
I just hung up and it was mainly out of shock. I looked up as Spencer walked up the walkway.
"Khloe?" He asked.
I was pale, so much has happened in the last hour. I stood up slowly to face him and he grabbed my hand.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"I was just fired." I said in disbelief.
"What?! For what?" He asked.
"Budget things, I was the last hired so-"
"You were the first to be fired, I hate that so much."
I felt the tears well up in my eyes again and the familiar sickness in my stomach reminding me of the other problem I was facing.
"Khloe, there will be other jobs." He said.
"That's not it."
"We will look for another job for you tomorrow. Let's go to dinner."
"I'm not hungry."
He looked at me as if he knew there was something else.
"I was fired." I repeated.
"I know but we will figure it out Kh-"
"I'm pregnant." I blurted out.
He stopped talking. I was expecting him to yell or be angry even, something other then the blank expression on his face. I braced myself for him to walk away and never come back but instead I got the complete opposite. He pulled me in his arms.
"We will figure it all out. I told you I wasn't going anywhere. Sure we weren't planning to have a baby at this time but that doesn't mean things are ruined. Maybe losing your job was a blessing in disguise, maybe now you can focus on something else, even stay home with the baby until he or she is older." He told me.
"You want the baby?" I asked, shocked.
"Of course! I love children. Do you want it?"
"I mean, I never thought about it. My whole life I was unwanted, but maybe with this baby I could rewrite my life into a better one and show him or her the feeling of being loved and cared for instead of rejected and abused."
He smiled and kissed me.
"So, we're having a baby?" I asked.
"We're having a baby." He smiled.
Wow! I did NOT expect that to be so long without pictures! It's been a while since I just started writing a chapter thinking it would be a short one only for it to turn out really long! I'm actually quite happy with how it turned out! Hopefully it's a little shock about the pregnancy! What are they going to do?
