Makayla's p.o.v Cory and I returned home pretty late last night. My whole family was waiting for me, clearly upset that I left and didn't contact them. Cory went home to check on his siblings, so I was left alone with a very pissed off brady bunch. "I am feeling so tired, please can we have this talk tomorrow?" I ask my family. "We are taking you to the drs tomorrow. Maybe you need vitamins or something" mom says. I roll my eyes. "All I need is for everyone to leave me alone mom. I have a busy schedule, that is all" I say. "Alright, I am leaving with dad, but if we come back and mom says you are still feeling off, then dad is calling the dr" mom tells me and I nod so she can get off my back. "I understand you don't want to talk about Lucas, so we won't even ask" dad tells me and I am so thankful that atleast he gets it. "Mak, Lucas didn't do anything. You need to talk to him" Mike tells me and I know that eventually I will have to have a conversation with him , but I don't want to, not right now. "She doesn't owe him anything. He cheated, he can go to hèll" dad says. "Goodnight" I say and walk into my room. I make sure that the door and window is locked. I just want to sleep and be alone. I wake up and run straight into the restroom. The feeling to vomit is just too much to handle. It is so overpowering. I feel so sick. I feel like a walking zombie. "Grandma" I yell. "Honey, your grandma just left " I hear grandpa say as he opens the door. "Are you okay?" he asks me, but I shake my head. "I need to go to the dr. I don't know what's wrong with me" I tell him. "Get dressed as soon as grandma gets back, we will go" he tells me and walks back out of the room. I pick out my clothes and before I can even get dressed, I feel like puking again. What the heck is wrong with me? We walk into the clinic and grandma speaks to the nurse and they give me a bunch of papers to fill out. Once I am done with those they call my name and I go to the back. My grandparents stay in the waiting room. They have me pee in a cup, they check my vitals and then have me waiting in a room for the dr. Once she comes inside she talks to me, she asks me a lot of questions. She tells me to lay on my back on the examination table and starts reading from the paperwork. "So according to your urine test, you are pregnant" she tells me and I get back up. "What? That's not possible" I tell her. "Are you sèxually active? Have you ever had sèx?" she asks me. I nod. "Once, I had séx one time" I tell her. "One time is all it takes." she tells me. "No, this can't be happening to me" I whisper. "You have options Makayla. Right now, lets see if we can see or hear your baby, lets see what is going on." she tells me. She lifts my shirt and checks my belly. She rubs the gel and with the wand goes over it. "Here is your baby" she tells me. "Seems too soon to hear the heart beat, but you are definitely pregnant. Here is a copy of the ultrasound" she tells me. She helps me wipe my stomach clean and hands me my paperwork. Remember, you have options let me know if you want to talk about those options. For now, go home and talk to your family. Talk to the father of the baby and I will see you in a month." she tells me. "Yeah, right now this is alot to take in. My parents are going to kìll me." I tell her. I sigh and thank her and walk out. "So, what did the dr say?" grandpa asks me. I had him the ultrasound picture. Might as well let them know. There's no point in hiding it. "Oh no Makayla" my grandmother says. My grandpa doesn't say anything. "Lets go. Your parents are going to kìll you" grandma says. "No they won't. Mayra was her age and we didn't kìll her." grandpa says and hugs me. "It's going to be okay, we will help you through this." he says with tears in his eyes. "I'm so sorry" I cry once we are in the car, driving home. "Oh Makayla, what are you going to do now? I feel like this is Mayra happening all over again with a good for nothing neighbor boy" grandma says. "honey, it's not the same" grandpa tells her. We arrive home. "lets call your parents. They need to know" she says. I stare at grandpa and when I see that he isn't going to help me get out of this, I nod. We sit in the kitchen table with the phone on speaker. It rings and rings and I hope they don't answer, but of course nothing ever goes my way. "Hey mom" mom says. "Mayra, we have a problem" grandma gets right to it. "What's wrong?" mom asks. "Makayla will tell you" she says and I stare at her with wide eyes. Well, might as well get it over with. "Mom" I whisper. "What's wrong Makayla?" she asks. "Mom, I'm pregnant" I tell her. She stays quiet. "Did you hear what your daughter said?" grandma asks her. "I heard her mom. I assume that Lucas is the baby's father?." she asks and when I don't say anything, she sighs. "Daddy and I will be home at the end of the week. I will let you tell him in person yourself" mom tells me and hangs up the phone. "Safe to say that she hates me now." I say to my grandparents. "No-one hates you Makayla. We just wanted better for you, but we are here for you and are going to help you just like we helped your mother with you and Michael. You will always have us. Now about that boy?" grandpa asks. "I can't even look at him grandpa. I can't tell him." I cry. "It's okay Makayla, it's okay" he tells me and hugs me, trying to comfort me. "You will always have us and that sweet little baby will always have us too" grandma tells me and comes in for the hug as well. I am so thankful for my family. I know they are all angry and disappointed, but they will be here for me for whatever I decide to do.
