"It must be cool... being at a school, where not only does everyone speak a different language then you, but they all have different accents, and look differently, and act differently." She bit her lip and looked at him carefully. He was either really good a reading her emotions, or there were rumors already, even though she was trying hard to act like there was nothing wrong with her, people still noticed, this complete stranger did, but that may just be a french thing.
Chase watched him carefully. He was very nice, very intelligent, and kind. She felt herself giving in. He looked so sad that she wasn't telling him everything, she felt like she should at least tell him something. "Well.." she bit her lip and looked at him. "It really isn't a great thing.. but... if you promise not to tell ANYONE, and I mean ANYONE... what I'm about to tell you.." She looked around as though looking for someone who was spying on them. Then, with a heavy sigh, she pulled a book out of a bag. "101 things that could go wrong." It was titled, and it had a baby rattle under it.
"I just broke up with my boyfriend... and my best friend had left me, so I made a new friend.. and well.. the relationship got serious... a lot faster then either of us wanted it to get..." she said carefully. "About a week ago..." She took a deep breath, and then realized that there was no way he could judge her, he didn't know her. He would be leaving at the end of the school year, she wouldn't see him again, so why not tell him something? He wouldn't remember it anyway, and he was asking for it! "Well.. a week ago, I found out.." she put her hand over her stomach and looked down, imagining herself with a baby bump that wasn't there. "I'm pregnant.. and I'm just.. I'm looking up stuff.. because I never planned for this, and me and the guy barely know each other.. and my best friend yelled at me when I told her.. just.. completely lost her head... screamed at me.. threw a mug at the wall.. she went nuts.. it's a lot to take in.. so even though I'm actually better off now then I was without the baby.." she bit her lip. "I'm still.. pregnant at seventeen." she said softly, staring at the book in front of her.
