Alright, this is my second fan fiction story. This story just came to me, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I really appreciate reviews, although you don't have to leave a review if you don't want to.

I am expecting this story to be a couple of chapters, if I had to make an estimate, it would be about 10 chapters. But that might change; it may be longer or shorter. Who knows? Well I guess that's it, here is the first chapter. Enjoy!

Summary: What happens when Clare finds out she's pregnant, and Eli isn't exactly too thrilled? Will he be supportive, or leave her when she needs him most? (Crappy summary, right? I know.)

*Throughout the story, I apologize if any characters seem a little OOC. If you don't like it, I'm sorry, but I like to change things up a bit.

I tapped my pencil against my desk as I tried to concentrate on my exam. Come on Clare, I cannot screw up this exam, I thought to myself.

"Five minutes left." Ms. Oh said.

I let out a silent groan and looked back at my exam. My mind went completely blank. I was doing math, but suddenly forgot all that I have learned. If X equals 45 and C equals 89, solve to get the answer of G. What the heck does this stuff mean? The clock was ticking second by second; minute by minute.

"Times up. Put your pencils down and please close your test booklets." Ms. Oh said as she came around to collect the booklets.

Great! I didn't finish! This is going to look great…

Ring! Ring!

I got up and quickly left the classroom. Alli called my name, but I didn't hear her, I didn't want to hear her.

"Clare!" Alli yelled. She tugged on my arm and I turned around. "What is up with you? I've been calling your name since class led out and you've ignored me." Alli paused then continued, "Why have you been so spacey lately? It's not very Clare-like."

"Sorry, Alli, I've just had a lot on my mind lately, that's all," I responded as I stopped at my locker.

"Oh, really, details please?" Alli begged.

"It's nothing important,"

"Obviously something is bothering you,"

"Ok, yeah, something is bothering me!" I snapped. I took a deep breath and spoke, "This is the second time in a row that I missed my period…"

Alli covered her mouth with her hands in shock. All of a sudden, it seemed like all eyes in the hallway were on me. A shiver went across my spine and I felt lightheaded. "Clare, you're not…pregnant, are you?" I shook my head. There was no way I could be pregnant. "Have you two been sexually active?"

"Maybe…" I confessed.

"Well, you should take a test just to make sure."

"Ugh, fine. I'll take the stupid test but it's going to come back negative because like I said, there's no way I am-"

"No way you're what?" Eli cut me off as he walked toward me. Great, what was I supposed to say?

"There's… no way I am going to pass the rest of my exams…" I lied. Wow, great cover.

"Oh, come on Clare, you'll do fine. You always do." Eli said with a smirk.

"Well I know one thing. Clare's sure hoping she won't pass her test later today," Alli added with a laugh.

I hit her in the arm. Alli was right. If the pregnancy test came back positive…I can only imagine how bad things will get from there.

"Can I look now?" I questioned.

"Not yet Clare, just wait patiently." Alli replied. Alli and I were in my bathroom; she was sitting on the bathtub ledge and I was sitting on the floor. My house was empty; my dad was at work and my mom at a church event. I looked around the bathroom, trying to pass the time. It seemed like forever.

My legs were shaking and my forehead was sweating. "Can I look now?" Alli nodded her head yes. Slowly, I got off from the floor and over to the counter. I picked up the pregnancy test while I had my eyes closed because I was too scared to see the result.

"What does it say?" Alli asked. I opened my eyes and all my hope dropped.

Oh my god.

I'm pregnant.

I just stood there with the test in my right hand. I didn't move a muscle and my eyes were just glued on the result.

"Clare, what does it say?" Alli quietly asked me. I didn't reply. "Clare," she repeated, "What does it say?"

And that's when I lost it.

I threw the pregnancy test on the floor with as much force as I could and then stomped on it with my feet. I kicked the bathroom counter and threw the closest towel I could see onto the floor. I hastily paced back and forth until Alli finally got up and grabbed me by the shoulder. "Was it positive?" she nervously questioned me. I pushed Alli onto the floor and she just stared at me with her eyes, wide as can be. "It was positive?" she said, breathless.

"No, it was negative, that's why I'm having a freaking meltdown!" I growled. "Yes, it was positive!" I was breathing very heavily, in and out.

I sunk down to the floor and buried my face in my hands. "This can't be happening. I'm dreaming, that's it, I'm dreaming!"

Alli got up, sat next to me and hugged me tight. "I'm so sorry, Clare," Alli said, "I guess you're pregnant… I don't really know what to say,"

"Neither do I. Expect for the fact that my parents don't know that me and Eli have been sexually active, so this whole pregnancy thing is going to give them a major heart attack."

"There's one thing I can help you with. Call a doctor to get you and your baby checked out. And, if you want, I'll come with you and be right by your side." Alli slightly smiled at me.

I nodded my head and forced a smiled. "Thanks so much, you're the best friend in the world," I hugged her tight. Then I realized something so important. "How do I tell Eli?"

"Oh, honey, that one is your responsibility." Alli said, as she helped me up. "The best thing is to just call him over and tell him directly that you're going to have a baby."

"Guess so,"

"No matter what happens, its Eli we're talking about, he's going to be supportive and help you through this."

So that's what I did. I reached for my phone and dialed Eli's number.

It was now 6:00 and Alli had left after getting me under control after my panic attack. I was alone in my own home as my parents were still out. Abruptly, the doorbell rang and I slowly went to open the door.

Well, here goes nothing. I opened the door to find a very happy Eli. "Hey, Blue Eyes," Eli smiled as he walked into my home and gave me a quick kiss on the cheek. "So, what's up? You wanted to talk?"

"Um, yeah, I do." I timidly replied. "It's very important, actually, and you might not like what I'm saying, so don't freak out, please,"

"Wait! Before you start, my throat is a little dry, do you mind if I get a glass of water?" Oh thank goodness.

"Sure, go ahead. You know where the glasses are,"

"Thanks," Eli made his way to my kitchen and pulled out a cup from my left kitchen cabinet. He filled it up with tap water and began to take a few sips of the water.

"No problem,"

Eli began to walk back into the living room, when he unexpectedly stopped. He picked up a white box and I quickly froze.

"Why do you have this?" Eli asked. He was holding the pregnancy test box. Ugh! How could I be so stupid and leave the stinking box on the table? I should have thrown it away right after I opened it!

This is going to be difficult. Very difficult.

Like? No like? You tell me. Reviews are wonderful, they aren't required…but they make me happy. Chapter two is coming soon! Thanks so much for reading.
