It's Your Baby, Belén Domínguez [books for 10th graders txt] 📗

you guys; you know. . .” he grinned. Knowing what he meant by that, I threw him a pillow and glared at him.

 

“What?” he asked innocently.

 

“She's fucking pregnant, and you think we did it?”

 

“Sorry, sometimes I forget you were careless enough not to use a condom”

 

“I was drunk!” I said defensively. “Are you my friend or my enemy?”

 

“Sorry, sorry, sorry. You're right, I should be more supportive” he said and sat down next to me. “I don't know what is wrong with me sometimes”

 

“Sometimes? You're crazy all the time” I laughed. He laughed too and nudged my shoulder playfully.

 

“How was it? You know, being with her?”

 

“It felt. . .Amazing. Nothing mattered, it was just us. I felt so happy to share that moment with her, to be with her” I said. “I don't know what is wrong with me”

 

“Sounds to me like you're in love, don't you agree?” he asked. I tilt my head sideways and looked at him. I smiled and nodded in agreement. It does sound like I was in love. I am in love with Gwen.

 

Suddenly, we heard the doorbell ring. I stood and went to answer it. When I opened it, I saw it was my younger brother, Hayden and my little sister, Skyler. “Hey big bro, she won't shut up about you” he said and put her in the ground. I kneeled down and hugged my little princess. I then stood up and hugged Hayden.

 

“Where's mom?” he asked.

 

“She left half an hour ago to the airport” I replied. I picked Skyler up and placed a kiss on her cheek. She giggled and then wrapped her small and delicate hands around my neck. We sat at the couch and she started messing with my hair.

 

“What did I say about my hair?” I asked playfully.

 

“But your hair is funny” she said.

 

“My hair is funny?” I repeated, laughing.

 

“Yes! I want to style it” she said and kissed my cheek.

 

“I'll let you style it later, okay?” I asked, she nodded excitingly at my response smiled widely. I turned to Harry who sat down on the couch next to me.

 

“Where's Will? I thought he would come too” I asked. I thought my big brother would tag along, how weird. I miss him so much; I haven’t seen him in a while ever since he went away for College.

 

“He couldn't make it, he had to attend to a football practice, plus some meetings about the next game. . .” he shrugged. “Cameron told me that you have some news, he said they were very serious. What's up?” he asked. I looked at Cameron who quickly got inside his room. I rolled my eyes, he just had to open his mouth. It was already hard enough to tell my mom, now I have to tell my little brother about it.

 

“Umm, Sky, why don't you go with Cameron in his room?” I said.

 

“But I want to be with you” she said with a pout on her face, and she looked so adorable. I chuckled and then put her in the ground.

 

“And I will be there in just a second, okay?” I said, but she shook her head. “If you go, I'll let you style my hair”

She smiled and nodded before running to Cameron's room. I turned back to Hayden, he crossed his arms across his chest, and waited patiently for me to tell him.

 

“Where do I begin?” I chuckled nervously while scratching the back of my head.

 

“I'm listening” he said.

 

“I–I just. . .Umm”

 

“Finn, dude, just say it all at once” he said and patted my back.

 

“Alright then. . .” I rubbed my hands and then looked at him straight in the eyes. “I got a girl pregnant”

 

I don't know how long he've been with his mouth wide opened. I've never seen such terrified expression on him. He's always so fearless and chill, that seeing him like this is very surprising. “What!?” he finally asked, screaming.

 

“You heard it” I said.

 

“Please tell me you're joking. . .I'm begging you” he said.

 

“I wish I was joking, but it's true”

 

He rubbed his face with both of his hands and didn't met my gaze until a few minutes later. “Do you even realize how this could ruin your career?" he asked. "Your fans, along with the press, will eat you alive with this if they ever find out. They can't find out. . .”

 

“They will be understanding, if they love me, they will understand. . .” I said.

 

“Finn, it doesn't work out like that. Why do you think they love you, huh? Because you're supposedly the heartthrob, they all want to be with you. Is not only because you make funny YouTube videos or awesome music. All of them want to be ‘Mrs. Grier’. How do you think they will react when they find out about this? I'm telling you this as a brother” he said and placed his hand on my back.

 

“And I appreciate that. . .But you don't understand. I can't just pretend this girl doesn't exist, that will break her. In fact, I think I am in love with her”

 

He gasped. “Well, that's new. . .” he said. “What's her name?”

 

“Gwen” I smiled.

 

“Does mom know about this?”

 

“Yes, she does. . .”

 

He sighed and stood up from the couch. “I want to meet her. . .”

 

“Just like mom, huh? Why do you want to meet her?”

 

“Because, apparently she's caring my niece or nephew. . .I have the right to see her too and know how is she. She might be like the other whores you've dated before”

 

“She's not a whore!” I said defensively. “She's smart, and beautiful, and innocent, and just perfect. Not a whore”

“Then why did you hook up with her in the first place?”

 

“Because. . .The guys dared me to do it. They said I wouldn't be able to make her go to bed with me”

 

“I believe you earned more than just a wild night, don't you think?” he chuckled and then grabbed his backpack from the floor. “Where can I go?”

 

“Well, there's this very nice and comfortable trash can in which you can sleep in, it’s outside” I said jokingly. He sent me a deathly glare and I laughed. “Joking, you can sleep in the guest room, is the room at the end of the hall to the left” I said. He nodded and then walked away.

 

Skyler came rushing towards me. “Can I style your hair now?” she asked. I chuckled and nodded. She grabbed my hand tightly and took me to my room.

“Do you like it?” she asked while handing me her mirror. I jokingly put myself in a thinking position, checking the sides.

 

“I love it” I said. She clapped her hands and start giggling non-stop. I picked her up and took her to my bed, I started tickling her and she couldn't stop laughing. I stopped and smiled at my little sister.

 

“You messed with my hair” she said and fixed it. I chuckled and kissed her head. I grabbed my phone and took a selfie of us to upload it on Instagram. I started typing a caption.

 

 

Do you like my new hairstyle? Skyler is my new stylist

There was a knock on my door, there stood Hayden, trying to hold his laughter, obviously failing.

 

“Now that's awesome” he said.

 

“Aww, thanks, it makes my eyes pop, don't you think?” I said jokingly. I stood up from my bed and walked towards Hayden. “What brings you to my room, Poo Bear?”

 

“Stop calling me that! I'm 15” he huffed and crossed his arms across his chest. I laughed and messed with his hair. "And I'm here because we're leaving. . .” he said. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion as I followed him to the door.

 

“Where are we going?” I asked.

 

“To Gwen's house, she lives here, right?”

 

“Umm, yeah, but I don't think it's a good idea” I said. “Mom already met her, and met the mother. . .The mom hates me”

 

“She should be pissed as hell with you, look what you did to her daughter” he said.

 

“Okay, I'm fucking tired of hearing people tell me the same thing, alright!? I know she should be mad at me, but could you please stop reminding me that?”

 

“Fine, fine” he sighed. “Let's go, Finn. . .Let's meet her" he said and pulled me by my hand out the door.

Chapter 27 - Yet Another Fight

Gwen's P.O.V

 

My parents had to go out because of their jobs, warning me once more that if I leave and don't tell them, they will ground me until I am fifty, which I totally understand and will not argue with that; I would've reacted the same way if it was my daughter.

 

“Alec, please. . .Just go to your room” I groaned as I stared at my brother leaning at the doorframe. He crossed his arms across his chest.

 

“I promised mom I wouldn't take my eyes off of you. I gave her my word” he said.

 

“That doesn't mean that you have to be watching me like some kind of stalker” I said. He chuckled and shook his head.

 

"I'm worried that you will see him" he huffed.

 

"He's name is Finn; you know? And he's not a bad guy" I said.

 

“What happened, huh? How is that from hating him, you turned into 'he's not a bad guy'?” he asked imitating my voice at the end. I rolled my eyes and sat Indian style on my bed.

 

“First, I don't talk like that. Second, I realized that I can't just judge someone without getting to know them first”

“How do you know that?”

 

“I just do” I said getting annoyed.

 

“He got you pregnant, look at your stomach, Gwen. . .Just look at it for a second. That bump you have, is his mistake” he raised his voice.

 

“It was my mistake too! I didn't know it was going to end up like this. I just. . .I just wanted one night, just one night without thinking of the responsibilities or consequences. I just wanted to have fun. And it had led to this. So I'm sorry if I am such a disappointment. I'm sorry if I am pregnant. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry”. I said holding the tears back.

 

“Gwen—”

 

“Please, just go. . .” I sighed. “I won't leave; I promise I won't"

 

He didn't say a word, just walked towards me and placed a kiss on my forehead. “I would never think you're a disappointment, I'm sorry if I made you feel that way” he said and walked to his room.

 

I hugged my pillow tightly and wished things could be different. I wish things would be different with Finn too. I just can't help but feel all these emotions when it comes to him, I can't help it. . .

 

I heard the doorbell ring, so I went to answer it. Alec was with his music so loud I'm sure he didn't hear it. I walked downstairs and to the door. I opened it and gasped at who was standing there.

 

It was Finn and. . .Finn?

 

“Is it me, or I'm seeing double?” I asked mostly to myself. They both exchanged looks and then Finn number two approached.

 

“I'm Hayden, Finn's younger brother. . .You must be Gwen, I see” he said. I nodded and put a strand of hair behind my ear, then turned to Finn.

 

“You shouldn't be here” I said.

 

“I know, but Hayden wanted to meet you”

 

“You
