The next morning my alarm beeps indicating it's time for me to get up and go to school.
I groan not wanting to get out of bed and roll over turning the obnoxious sound off.
I sit up and head into the bathroom. I brush my teeth and rinse my face before applying a small amount of makeup.
I run a straightener over my hair and put in my small earrings.
I change into a loose shirt even though you can still see my bump. But at this point I don't care because basically everyone knows now.
I grab my backpack keys and phone before heading downstairs. Everyone else was still asleep so I just quietly grabbed a water bottle and granola bar before sliding on my shoes and getting in my car.
As soon as I pull up to the school i get out and head into the school.
I walked in and immediately saw my friends.
I walked over to them and they all hug me.
"How did it go last night?" They all ask.
"Good, his parents are insanely nice, but Grayson on the other hand shut down." I explain.
"Ugh" Eva groans.
"I don't know what to do, his parents keep saying he'll come around but I just don't see that happening"
"Give it time, remember how you were when we kept saying you were pregnant. This is a lot for him I'm sure, he probably just doesn't know how to Handle it all" Avery reassures me.
I nod my head and hope that that's really what's happening.

I was sitting in class taking a test for history when my phone buzzed.
Grayson Dolan: I need to talk to you after class.
Me: okay.
Grayson Dolan: meet me by my car.
Me: okay I will.
I locked my phone and continued my test.
The bell rang and class was over. I started walking to Grayson's car when my nerves started taking over.
As soon as I got out of the school I saw Grayson standing by his car.
"Hey" He said forcing a light smile.
"Hi" I said back waking closer to him.
"You can get in" he said walking over to the drivers side and getting in.
I got into the passenger side before I turned looking at him.
"What did you wanna talk about?"
"I want to be involved, with the baby" he said.
I was shocked.
"Wha- you do?" I asked hesitantly.
"Yeah, after all it is my baby too. And I'm not gonna leave you to raise him/her all alone" he said making eye contact with me.
My eyes filled with tears and I felt like I just had a huge stress lifted off my shoulders.
"I also wanted to apologize, apologize for calling you those things." He explains.
"It's ok, thank you Grayson" i replied.
"And I want this to be a good experience for the both of us. So I want us to be friends"
