Walking into school I felt a tap on my arm and looked to the side and noticed it was Mason. Grinning I threw myself into his arms as I threw my arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. He chuckled and we let go as started to walk side by side.

"So since we haven't really been on any real date yet, I was thinking we should go to the fair? Would you be interested?"

"For a first date? Seems a little cliche" I chuckled as he playfully rolled his eyes. "Well mam, I don't know about you but I'm okay with a cliche every now and again" Mason smiled.

"Okay, okay. I guess cliches are good once in a while. Alright, so the county fair, wanna pick me up at 7?" I asked smiling.

"Sounds good, alright I'll see you later Bevs," Mason said as he kissed the side of my head and walked away.

-2 hours later -

As I was walking to my next class with Charlotte and April I got a call and answered.

"Hello Beverly, it's Dr. HighTower, how've you been?" She asked as I glanced around the halls and quickly walked into the bathroom. "I'm okay.. I uh listened to what you said about the crackers and eating something before getting up" I let her know. She chuckled. "Okay that's good, at least someone listened" She sighed. "So how has Amy been? I called her an hour ago but she hung up on me"

"Oh.. I think about how much you'd expect, Amy hasn't been too happy" I explained. "Yeah, I thought so.." She sighed. "Well, okay dear, I'll let you go then," She said as I nodded. "Okay bye.." As we hung up I sighed as my girls walked into the bathroom.

"Everything okay?" April asked as Charlotte looked at me in concern. "Yeah, it was just the doctor that saw Amy and me and who told us we were pregnant" I explained as they nodded.

"Oh, she was just checking on you?" Charlotte asked as I nodded. "Yeah she's been really nice about checking on us, but Amy hasn't been so nice, she said Amy hung up on her" I shrugged as we left the bathroom.

"What a bitch" April snorted as I shot her a look. Charlotte snickered as I sighed.

After school, I told the girls about my first date so they decided to come to my house and help me get ready.

"How about this?" I asked holding up a glittery top. "Ew too flashy" Charlotte grimaced as I shrugged and took out another top. "This?" "Too feathery" April commented as she wrinkled her nose. I sighed putting it back.

 Charlotte sighed getting up as she picked out a jacket and shirt. "Okay, how about this?" She asked as I shrugged. "Looks good, I'll go with it," I said as I grabbed the jacket and top from her and laid them on a chair.

April glanced at me. "So bubbles.. I hate to bring this up.. But are you going to tell Mason that you're.."

"Expecting

have a bun in the oven

have a peanut growing?" Charlotte cut her off as I glared at her.

"I- I mean I have too, I can't just be like Amy with Ben and keep him from knowing, I mean I already confessed I slept with Ricky and he was fine with it, but I doubt he'll stay knowing I'm pregnant.. And it just sucks so bad! He's such a sweet guy and I don't wanna hold him back.. I'll tell him on the date" I frowned as the girls looked at me in sympathy. 

"I'm really sorry peaches, but it's for the best, it wouldn't be right to lead him on like Amy is doing.." Charlotte mumbles.

"Yeah, still can't believe Amy is doing that shit to Ben, I almost actually told him about it too" April sighed. 

"Wait you almost told Ben?" Charlotte asked raising a brow as I looked at her in shock.

"I mean he's a cute guy and doesn't deserve to be tied down with a baby that isn't his.. And I always sorta kinda liked him.. And I was planning to ask him out and then he met Amy and now I doubt there's any hope left to get him to like me because I'm sure when he finds out Amy is preggers he'll still stay with her because that's just the kind of person he is.." April trailed off as I looked at her in sympathy.

"Wow.. Didn't know you liked him, I guess it's kind of obvious now though, I mean I did use to see you stare at him in home ec" Charlotte shrugged.

 "You know, maybe if you were to flirt with Ben and make it obvious how you felt about him, maybe he'd like you back?" I suggested.

"I-I don't know.. I don't want to get rejected.." April sighed. "Oh come on, you're way hotter than Amy, he has to see that" Charlotte frowned as I glanced at her.

"It's whatever, can we please stop talking about it and focus on bubbles?" April asked as we nodded.

April got up and picked out a pair of pants and handed them to me as I nodded and changed into my outfit and walked out. The girls smiled giving a thumbs up. 

"Looks great Bevs, I have to go unfortunately because it's family night" Charlotte sighed.

"Yeah, and my folks want me home they texted" April sighed.

"It's okay, I'll see you guys later and let you know how everything went" I smiled weakly. They nodded and we all hugged as they left.

Hearing a knock on the door I opened it to my mom. "Hey honey, how is everything, you almost ready for your date?" She asked. "Oh hey mom, yeah Charlotte and April helped me out and now I'm just waiting on Mason" I smiled.

"You look great sweetie, have fun okay? And call me if you need anything" She smiled as she walked away.

Hearing my phone I answered. "Mason?" I smiled. "Who?" I heard on the other line as I groaned in annoyance hearing Ricky. "Ricky, what do you want?" I asked sighing. "Hey I just wanted to talk, you waiting for a phone call?" "Actually I am, I'm going on a date with my boyfriend Mason" I frowned. "Oh right, that guy.. Wait you're actually going on a date with him?" He asked annoyed. "Yes, and I'm waiting for his call so if you don't mind," I said as he cut me off.

"Actually I do mind, quite a lot actually. You'll date him but not me?" He asked in confusion. "First of all, all you want with me is to use me while Mason wants to be with me romantically" I glared. "How would you know how I feel?" Ricky scoffed. "Look this has been nice but I'm waiting for a call, so goodbye Ricky," I said as I hung up on him.

Immediately I got a call and made sure to check it was Mason and picked up with a smile. "Mason!" I smiled as he chuckled on the other line. "Hey sorry Bevs, would have got you sooner but your line was busy" He said as I sighed. "Yeah, it was busy because of Ricky Underwood," I said.

"Wait really? What'd he want?" Mason asked unhappily. "He wanted to know why he wasn't getting a chance to date me" I rolled my eyes. "And then after getting to be annoying I hung up on him" I chuckled as Mason laughed.

"Heh, glad you showed him, oh and my lady would you mind stepping outside so we can go on a glorious date with cotton candy, caramel apples with unicorns?" Mason asked as I giggled.

 "Of course sir," I said as I walked outside and saw him standing outside of the car. I curtsied as I smiled at him. His eyes widened as he dropped his phone. "Y-You look beautiful, not that you didn't before" He blushed as I smiled softly and walked up to him. "You look amazing yourself," I said as I quickly pecked his lips. He smiled and led me to the other side of the car and opened the door for me.

"Why thank you good sir" I giggled as he bowed. "You're welcome madam," He said with a wink as I blushed. Shutting my door he got in and we drove off to the fair.

As Mason and I walked around I smiled looking at our surroundings while hugging my big stuffed giraffe that Mason won for me. "You really love that giraffe huh?" Mason chuckled as I nodded. "Yep! I named him 'Motley'" I chuckled. "Motley? Nice name" "Thanks! So what should we do next?"I asked as he glanced at a booth and stared at a big stuffed frog. "You want the frog don't you?" I giggled as he nodded with a blush. 

"Here, I'll win it for you" I smiled handing him my giraffe, and walked up to the booth. "Bev it's okay, really, I don't mind" He trailed off. 

"No I want to, besides you got me something so I want to get you something" I smiled as I gave the man the money and grabbed the arrows that I had to throw at a target. Luckily my aim was decent and I was able to win him the frog. "Here you go mam," The man of the booth said as he handed me the frog. I thanked him and turned to Mason as I handed him the frog.

"Wow you actually got it for me, thank you" He smiled softly as I smiled softly and gave him a kiss on the cheek as I grabbed my stuffed animal from him and we began to walk hand in hand. 

"So what you gonna name him?" I questioned glancing at the frog. "Hmm.. I think I'll go with Horton" Mason smiled. "Horton? Nice" I said as I glanced at the frog. "Heh, thanks! Come on, let's go eat" He said as we hurried to a food booth.

After eating a LOT of food at the fair Mason and I got on the carousel. "You enjoying the fair Bevs?" Mason asked smiling. "More like I'm enjoying the food" I chuckled. He laughed. "Yeah I was gonna say that instead but figured it'd be rude," He said sheepishly. "Oh it's totally okay, I've definitely been eating a lot.. It's actually something I wanted to talk to you about.." I trailed off as Mason's eyes widened. 

"Oh, I don't judge! It completely fine, I hope I didn't hurt your feelings" He frowned as I chuckled. "No, it's not that.. It's something else, It's something I've been meaning to tell you actually.."

As I started to tell him I felt vile running up my throat as my eyes widened. Immediately I puked all over our shoes as my eyes widened. "Oh no.." I muttered wiping my mouth. "Hey don't worry it's okay," Mason said as he led us off the carousel and got some napkins from a booth and went and sat us down far away from the public. 

I started crying as I wiped my shoes off. "I'm so sorry, I messed up" I cried as Mason frowned. "Hey hey it's okay, you didn't mess up, it's okay" He said as he rubbed circles on my back in motions as I sobbed clutching his jacket.

"Bevs it's gonna be okay, it's just throw up, I can wash my shoes later" He frowned as I sobbed. "It's not just that! It's everything.. Look Mason I should have told you when we first met.. I'm-

"You're pregnant" He stated bluntly as my eyes widened. "How did- how did you know that? The only ones who knew were my friends" I whispered in shock as he gave me a weak smile.

"I have a sister and she's a teenage mom, and I helped her through everything with my family, so I know the side effects and everything, it was obvious" "How long did you know.." I trailed off. "I knew the second time we saw each other, you ate a lot and had weird cravings you even got a hot dog and wanted peppers on it that same day" He chuckled.

"Mason, I'm so sorry, I was going to tell you tonight but I didn't want to tell you like this" I sighed. "No it's okay, I knew we had just met and you would tell me soon, and like I said I don't judge" He smiled. "Yet you still went out with me knowing? Even though you could have just told me and not dated me?" I asked in confusion. 

"I really like you Beverely, and you being pregnant doesn't matter to me, I still want to be with you" Mason smiled softly. "But I'm pregnant and it's not yours.." I trailed off.

"That doesn't matter to me Beverly, I would still help you and even help support you and your child because I care about you a whole lot," He said as I stared at him in awe.

"You would? Knowing it's Ricky's child and not yours?" I asked as he nodded. "Yeah, of course. I just wish this was our child" He sighed. "Ricky didn't deserve to make a baby with someone as kind and as beautiful as you," Mason said as I blushed.

"Thank you.. And thank you for being here still, not many if hardly any guys at all would stay with a pregnant girl, let alone a pregnant girl when the child isn't there's.." I muttered as he smiled.

"Well I'm happy to stay for you Beverly Kent, any time, any day, any hour" He smiled as I smiled.

"Come on now, let's get you home," Mason said as he stood up and helped me up as he drove me home.

As I got in my house I waved goodbye to Mason and smiled as I shut the door and leaned on it. Walking in I saw my brother and sister on the couch looking stressed. I sighed, "Mom and Dad are fighting again aren't they?" I trailed off. They nodded. "Yep.. As usual because of dad" Tommy sighed rubbing his temples. "So how was your date?" Delilah asked as I smiled. "It was amazing" I sighed in bliss.

"That's good, what's that smell?" She asked as her nose crinkled. Immediately Tommy noticed it too and grimaced.

"Yeah what is that smell?" He asked as he covered his nose with his shirt. "It's puke, I threw up on the carousel" I sighed. 

"No way!" They both laughed as I glared at them.

I huffed and began to walk to my room as Delilah stood up. "Actually Bev I wanted to talk to you about something.." Delilah trailed off.

"About what?" I asked nervously as I turned to her. Tommy frowned and sat up more. "You're not like pregnant or anything are you Bev?" Delilah asked as my eyes widened. How could she have known? "Beverly? Pregnant? Yeah right she's like a nun" Tommy laughed as he grabbed a pillow and threw it behind his head.

"Y-Yeah why would you ask that Lilah?" I asked nervously as Delilah furrowed her brows and pinched her nose with a sigh. 

"I mean you've been acting really weird lately Bev, and you're hungry all the time, I always see you In the fridge or eating or drooling at everything in plain sight, and you hardly ever used to eat before, now all you do is eat.." Delilah trailed off as Tommy furrowed his brows.

"Wait she's been eating a lot lately? How come I never noticed?" Tommy asked Delilah as she rolled her eyes. "Because you're either with your girlfriend or with your friends, you're not here a lot Tommy" Delilah explained. "Well do you blame me? It's always fighting every day here with them!" Tommy hissed. He didn't like either of my parents. He just wanted to turn 18 and get out of here as soon as possible. He's been saying this since he was 14, and now he's 16.

"That's great Tommy, but don't forget about your sisters for crying out loud" Delilah hissed as they glared at each other. "Woah, Woah guys calm down! We don't fight like they do, remember all three of us are in this together!" I exclaimed as they sighed.

"Now apologize" I glared at them as they scoffed and turned to each other. "Fine, I'm sorry.." Tommy apologized. "I'm sorry too.." Delilah mumbled as I weakly smiled at them.

"Okay thank you guys, now goodnight," I said as I began to walk away before they both stood up. "Wait a second were you trying to distract us by telling us goodnight?" Tommy asked as I huffed. "Yes she was, so getting back on page you've gained weight Beverely, your stomach is getting bigger and you got sick on something that isn't even a ride.. Beverly are you pregnant?" Delilah asked softly as my eyes watered. 

"If you are we won't tell them," Delilah said softly. "You're gonna need us if you are Bev's.. You can't do this alone" Delilah continued with a frown. "Dad.. He's gonna flip out and you'll need us to help.." She said as tears slowly streamed down her cheeks. "Just tell us.. Are you?" Delilah finished.

"Beverly..are you actually having a baby?" Tommy asked softly as I nodded. "Y-Yeah yeah I am, don't tell them yet.. I have to find somewhere to go because of dad.." I cried.

They both stared at me in shock and got up to hug me. "I'll tell mom when I can and then I'll leave" I sobbed. "You shouldn't have to leave though, he should if he gives such a damn" Tommy hissed. 

"I know Tommy, but I can't stay here, he's gonna throw me out regardless and so I'd rather leave on my own regards, not his" I cried as Delilah and Tommy hugged me tighter while crying.

Hearing a knock on the door we broke up the hug as I went and answered the door. "Mason?.." I asked softly as he walked in. "You weren't picking up so I wanted to make sure you were okay, and I uh got you some ginger ale for your stomach, it'll definitely help" Mason smiled as I smiled at him. 

"Thank you, that means a lot, I'll see you tomorrow," I said as I pecked him on the cheek as he smiled and left. 

Tommy and Delilah glanced at me as they walked in. "Does he know?" Delilah asked as I nodded. "Yeah, yeah he does.." I confirmed. "Is it his?" Tommy asked as I bit my lip. "No.." I whispered softly as his eyes widened. "No way, it's Ricky's isn't it?" Tommy asked as I nodded while Delilah looked at me with wide eyes. I sighed wiping my eyes and went to my room.
