Amelia Forbes
I was beyond confused when my name was called out as this year's Prom Queen. At first I thought it was an expensive joke, courtesy of Kimberly and Jason. But it was called out again. And the spotlight was turned on me.Everyone was clapping and cheering me on. And all of a sudden, everyone wanted to take selfies with me, talk to me. Some dude even tried to hug me.Since Adrian was Prom King, we walked up the stage together. Secretly, I was glad Jason hadn't won. Because I sure as hell wouldn't have stood on the same stage with that bastard. He'd been stealing glances at me all day when he thought I wasn't looking. Seeing his face today, brought on a lot of unwanted memories. But I was trying hard to stay on track.When Adrian and I were crowned, the middle of the stage was cleared for us to have our dance.Surprisingly, Adrian turned out to be quite a good dancer. "Is there anything you aren't good at?" I stage whispered, shaking my head in

Jason Davenport"I have an announcement," Greg stated, a few minutes into the small party we were having. It was a small thing we'd decided to have, just the three of us. Kind of like an after graduation party. Graduation had taken place a week after prom. Dad and Ashley had been there. It'd been nice. I'd seen Amelia as well, Adrian standing loyally beside her the entire day, except when she had to give her valedictorian speech. As I watched her afterwards taking pictures with her friends and grandma, I knew I owed her an apology. And I really wanted to. But my legs wouldn't budge. I knew I had been unfair, a monster infact, but I didn't know how to make it right. My heart broke as I thought of how disappointed Mom would be if she were here.And I couldn't even tell the guys about it because they'd be disappointed. Just like Adrian had been. And I wasn't sure I could handle losing anyone else close to me. So I kept it to myself. I knew that t

Amelia ForbesThe days that followed after graduation were miserable for me. There was no school to attend, no classes to keep me busy, and no studying to distract me at all. I had nothing to keep myself busy with. So all I did was think. So much that I began to overthink, which meant I started to worry a whole lot more, about every little thing. My anxiety level shot up. And soon, I refused to leave my room.I was three and a half months pregnant, and inevitably I had begun to show. The corset was too tight to be comfortable and I had to stop wearing it. I didn't know what to do. Every time I saw Nana coming in my direction, I would duck into my bedroom and attempt to conceal my stomach with my duvet or blanket. Soon, she would notice. If she hadn't already. What would I say to her? How would I explain this. . .I couldn't talk to Dani or Benson about it. They wouldn't understand. And I hadn't seen Adrian since graduation. I wanted to text him, but

Jason DavenportI shut my eyes tight as Ashley knocked at my bedroom door. It stood wide open so obviously, she could see that I was awake. I turned over in my bed, hoping she would take a hint and go away. But instead she knocked a second time. "Do you have a minute?" She asked in her tinkly voice. I wanted to yell out a huge 'no' but I wasn't in the mood to quarrel with her. So I sat up and motioned for her to come in. She didn't sit, instead she folded her hands behind her and cleared her throat. "Look, I know you don't want to see me or talk to me, but I have something to say."I have her a blank stare. "I'm trying. I'm trying so hard. And I know you don't see it, or refuse to see it. But it's fine, I understand why."I cocked an eyebrow at her, folding my arms in front of me. "I'm the one who. . ." She trailed off, tucking a strand of her blondish pink hair behind her ears and fiddling with the hem of her sweater. "I-I pr

Amelia ForbesI had begun to feel sicker and sicker. I was throwing up more, stressing out more, and I felt tired all the time. In summary, I felt like crap. Nothing was comfortable anymore and I kept having recurring mood swings-laughing one minute and crying the next. Thankfully, Nana had resumed her volunteer work, so she was seldom home. Looking toward my table clock, the time showed that she would've left the house by now. Good. I needed to eat something. But I couldn't do that if she was home. As gently as possible, I got down from my bed and bumbled into the kitchen. After opening and closing a few drawers-not finding anything appetising to eat-I finally decided to go with cereal. Grabbing the biggest bowl we had, I emptied nearly half the box. It was as though I just realized how hungry I was. Popping the fridge open, I decided to go with yogurt instead of milk as I'd been craving it. I paused as I was about to empty the yogurt into the bowl. I f

Amelia ForbesI could feel the rapid pounding of my heart as I watched Dani stare me down. I couldn't read her expression, couldn't tell what she was feeling. My tongue hung on the roof of my mouth, dry. My lips parted but I didn't know what to say. Beside me, Adrian gently helped Nana onto a sofa and handed her a glass of water."How long did you plan on keeping this a secret?" I looked up at Dani. I'd been praying for her to say something all this while but now that she did I didn't know what to say. Her eyes were glassy and cold. I shivered a little, the thought of her hating me now freezing up my insides. "Dani, I..." I managed to blurt out. "I didn't know how.." My voice shook with each word. Adrian gave me a reassuring nod and placed a hand on Dani's shoulder. "Amelia is going through a really tough time right now-""You knew?" The accusation in her voice chilled me to my bones and I could feel the tears forming in my eyes.

Looking towards dad, I wiped my sweaty palms on my hoodie. "This girl who keeps disturbing our peace and knocking like a mad woman claims she's here to see you. So?" He gestured to Dani. "Do you know her?""I d-don't recognize-""You fucking asshole!" Dani screamed so loud the servants had to hold her back. "You monster!" She continued, seemingly oblivious to the tight hold on her shoulders. "I'll strangle you with my bare hands when I get my hands on you, you fucking piece of shit!"Dad's face reddened. You come into my house, disturb our peace, and threaten my son?!" He bellowed. Ashley gently placed her hand on his, tapping on it in a distracting motion. Dani stood, unfazed. "Why don't you ask 'your son' what he did to my friend!" She spat, anger visible on her features. She met my eyes, anger and pain dancing in them. "Why don't you tell them? Tell them how you singlehandedly ruined Amelia's life."Dad's eyebrows furrowed. He questioningly looked

Amelia ForbesI watched Dani and Ben slice vegetables in the kitchen silently. For once they weren't bickering. But they weren't talking to each other, or to me.I gave a silent sigh. Ben had found out about everything from Dani when he came over. It took both Dani and Adrian to stop him from storming off to the Davenports. Afterwards he had screamed his lungs off at me, asking why I could keep something like that from him.Then he'd cried a little. We'd all cried together. Nana included. But there was still a sad kind of tension in the air. No one was talking to each other. They'd even agreed on what to make for dinner for once without arguing. Adrian, Ben and Dani were a part of my small family now. They were constantly around-coming over early in the morning and leaving pretty late at night, although they slept over most nights. And me? I was exhausted. I was still a bit scared from Nana's dizzy spell from earlier. But I felt relieved too. The peo

Jason DavenportI was exhausted as I walked through the doors of the fourth convenience store I'd been to today. I was trying to find a job. I didn't know what that entailed, nor had I ever had one before, but I was determined to make an effort. And getting a job was a first step. I timidly walked to the counter, conscious of my damp clothes that had begun to give off a weird kind of smell. The salesclerk ignored me until I cleared my throat loudly. He paused in his typing and glared at me, scrunching his face as the stench hit his nose. Holding a napkin briefly to his nose he snapped, "What can I do for you?" My fists clenched at his snarky tone. How dare he disrespect me? People like him were my servants! My anger slowly began to dissipate as I realized it was past tense. I was a nobody now. Trying my best to ignore the attitude I said, "I'm looking for a job?" Loud guffaws from the other salesclerks ran through the air and I felt the back
