The Secret Life of the East High Teenager [[chapter 110]]

Troy POV

Nick and McKell sat out on the hammock in the backyard. I watched them from a distance. My little sister was going to be a mom. Her career was just starting. What was she going to do? Give it up for adoption? Keep it?



Nick POV

I sat on the hammock and held McKell. She hadnt stopped crying since she found the results. I have to admit that I must not have looked much better. I was scared to death of what was going to happen. I love McKell, and I care for her, but not as much as Joe. And I have a career, Im not ready to be a dad, but that was going to happen. And I would be t here for McKell and the baby, because I dont want to be the douche bag that chickens out and abandons her.



McKell: what are we going to do?



Nick: I dont know, but whatever you decide, Im there with you.



McKell: I mean Ive always wanted to be a mom, but I was thinking later on in my life, when Im more prepared.



Nick: I cant believe were having a baby.



McKell: are you scared?



Nick: would you kill me if I said yes?



McKell: No, I wouldnt because Im scared too.



2 days later McKell POV

Joe was completely ignoring me and I dont blame him at all, but I just wish I could go back in time and change all of this. I need him more than anything. Nick and I havent told anyone, we were still trying to find a way to tell our parents. I had set up a doctors appointment at the hospital for today; I was going to see if Nick would want to come.



Nick: Hey. How are you feeling?



McKell: like any pregnant teen feels. So I have an appointment at the hospital today.



Nick: is everything ok?



McKell: yeah, I think, thats why Im going, for a check up, and to see how far along I am.



Nick: do you need me to go with you? Or would that be weird?



McKell: No, you can come, Im sure you could wait in the hall while she does the ultrasound.



Nick: what time?



McKell: In a half hour.



Nick: we better get going then.



Nick and I left the school and headed to the hospital. After waiting for 20 minutes the doctor called me in. I sat on the bed.



Dr. Handley: Im doctor Handley and Ill be your doctor today. If you could just lie down and lift up your shirt Im going to be putting on a cold gel and then Ill do the ultrasound.



I nodded nervously.



Nick POV

McKell was in that room for what seemed like hours. I looked at my phone, it had been 20 minutes. She came out looking somewhat confused.



Nick: Is everything ok?



McKell looked up at me and smiled with tears in her eyes. She jumped and hugged me.



Nick: what happened?



She stepped back and let out a small laugh.



McKell: Nick, the pregnancy test was a fluke. Im not pregnant.
