So hey everyone, I'm back with a new TDROTI fic! It follows after What you were once to me. Both Scott and Dawn are 18 now, so technically, they're adults. Okay, so anyway, there are few things I would like to share. 1. Dawn gets pregnant and I don't want anyone to think that this is some "oh wow, she's pregnant, so stupid." I can't control what anyone thinks, but I hope you won't think that. 2. There might be minor OC characters, since they're living in Scott's town.

No flames please, but everything else is appreciated. I don't own TDROTI and never will. Thank you


It's not like you to turn away,

From all the bullshit I can't take,

It's not like me to walk away

January 4, 2012, Wednesday morning, 2 years since TDROTI

Some people think time goes by very quickly, such as the saying time flies when you're having fun. For Dawn though, it seemed to be the exact opposite. Time seemed to go by rather slowly. Ever since that fateful summer when she was sixteen, her perspective on this changed. Everything she and Scott did seemed slow, well most of the time. It was as if she were learning to live again, to start over, and in a way, she had.

After Total Drama Revenge of the Island, everything had changed. Some changes were good, and some not so good. Her parents had disowned her and completely walked out of her life, but she had found Scott, her soulmate. Knowing that made things easier, not better, but bearable. Moving to a new place, to start over had been challenging. The home she was staying with had a daughter, who was now in fourth grade. Being in a home that wasn't broken hadn't been easy, but the family was kind and patient.

This morning however, seemed different than most mornings. As usual, Dawn woke up early, made her bed, and meditated before getting ready for school, but something had changed in all of this. The minute she got out of bed, she felt this strange urge to vomit. She raced to the bathroom, nearly tripping on the rug and barely made it to the toilet, hacking and giving coughs as vomit poured out of her mouth.

"Dawn? What's going on? Are you not feeling well?" A voice asked from the doorway and Dawn turned to see her foster mother in the doorway, her brown eyes looking concerned. Mrs. Monroe was a tall woman, with honey brown hair and a warm personality to match with it. She taught at the local Elementry school, where her daughter Alicia went. She walked over to Dawn, placing a hand on her forehead.

"You're not feverish, perhaps it was just an upset stomach." She said, taking a few steps back and a relieved smile on her face. Dawn nodded and wipped her mouth, flushing the toilet.

"Yeah, I guess it was." Dawn answered and Mrs. Monroe walked out, Dawn following her and heading into her room, putting on a light blue sweater and jeans. She ran a brush through her thick blond locks, feeling the softness of her hair. Brushing some of it back, she could see the scars from her childhood, though they didn't bother her much now. She sighed and walked out of her room and into the kitchen, where Alicia was sitting and coloring something on the table. Dawn smiled when she saw her, feeling warm with all the happy auras around her. "Good morning Alicia."

Alicia looked up and smiled. "Morning Dawn!" Was all she said and she went back to coloring. Dawn looked at Mrs. Monroe, who was over the stove making apple pancakes. Mr. Monroe had to leave for work early, but that was okay. He needed to support his family.

"Dawn?"

"Yes Alicia?"

Alicia bit her lip, "Are you going to leave us when you graduate?" She finished, looking at the older girl with worried eyes. Dawn gave a gentle smile and patted the girl's head.

"I won't leave right away, but I may go to college."

Alicia thought about this. "Mom, what's college?"

"College is a school for highschool graduates who want to continue their education. A full college education takes up to seven years." Mrs. Monroe answered, not looking up from her cooking. Alicia made a face.

"Ick, who wants to spend that long in school?"

Mrs. Monroe smiled and placed a plate of pancakes in front of the girls, shaking her head. "People who want to have good jobs."

Dawn gave a laugh at Alicia's miffed expression. Looking at the clock, Mrs. Monroe quickly hurried them and they headed out the door at exactly 7:30. After dropping Dawn off at the high school, she immediatly met up with Scott, who was yelling at some freshmen for bumping into him.

"YOU STUPID ASSHOLE! Oh, hey Dawn." He said, as if yelling at someone and then addressing her was normal. Dawn just gave him a patient smile and held his hand gently.

"Scott, your aura tells me you're in a bad mood. Why?"

Scott sighed and looked her in the eyes, sending goose bumps down her spine. "I didn't get enough sleep last night, plus, I had a bad dream."

"A bad dream? Did you not put up the dream catcher I gave you?"

Scott's guilty expression gave his answer away and Dawn shook her head, putting her hands on her hips. "Scott, you shouldn't ignore the supernatural. It is real you know."

"I'll believe that when B actually talks." Scott replied back, mentioning their friend from Total Drama revenge of the island. Dawn couldn't help but give a smile at that one. Hearing the first bell, she and Scott walked to their first hour class, History with Mr. Hedge. All through class, Dawn didn't concentrate on what Mr. Hedge was saying. Her mind was too focused on what happened earlier that morning. She wasn't sick, but she hadn't eaten much during dinner last night.

A tiny suggestion ran across her mind, but she shook it away. It was ridicolous. She and Scott had only had intercourse once, and that was two weeks ago. Besides, if she were pregnant, wouldn't she have known earlier?

"Ms. Fletcher?"

Dawn immediatly looked up, a pink hue running over her face. "Yes?"

"Would you please follow along in our lesson? If it's that boring, then you should leave."

Dawn's face darkened even further as the class giggled and Scott sent a confused look in her direction, considering how she usually paid attention in class. He frowned, and stared at the teacher, knowing something was wrong. Dawn on the other hand, knew something was wrong. She could feel it and when something was wrong, she knew it was not something to ignore.


She left Scott that afternoon, saying she had to go home and baby sit Alicia. She felt horribly bad for lying to him and it was something she never wanted to do, but she had to do this. All day, she had felt sick with nausea, dizzy spells, and headaches. During her free period, she went to the library and pulled out a book on pregnancy; which was the last things she wanted to do, but she read it anyway.

The signs had all matched up, but that didn't mean that she was. It could mean anything. So she walked into the pharmacy, finding a pregnancy test and paying for it, trying to ignore the face the checkout lady gave her. She hurried home and thanked who ever was up there that Alicia was at dance class and Mrs. Monroe was with her. She hurried into the bathroom, locking the door and began to use the pregnancy test (1)

She waited for a few minutes, her heart pounding a little. There was no way that she could be, the idea of her having a child was ludicrous! Did she even have the right to be a mother?

BEEP BEEP BEEP

Dawn looked down at the test and froze. The screen was green and black words read PREGNANT. She shook her head, sinking to the floor and sat against the wall, muttering no over to herself. This could not be happening, she was only eighteen! She would be graduating soon and she didn't want a child right now!

What was she going to tell Scott? What if he didn't want to be with her anymore? He didn't seem the father type. Dawn sighed and took a couple calming breaths, trying to keep a grip on reality. She was going to tell Scott, she had to and as much she didn't want to, it was his right to know. Her thoughts turned over to the night she and Scott had performed their intercourse, her cheeks turning pink at the thought of it.


"Scott?"

"Hm?"

"Are you sure we did the right thing?"

Scott looked at her in the eyes, pulling her naked flesh closer to him and wrapping his arms tighter around her. "Don't tell me you're regretting it?"

Dawn shook her head, tracing the freckles on his chest. "It's just that, so many people have done this before and...they don't always turn out alright."

Scott sighed and gave her a gentle look, something he only gave for her. "Listen Dawn," he started, "Nothing is going to happen. And even if something does, I'm not going to stop loving you."

"Promise?"

"I promise."
