Troubled Times.

The school day lasted forever, or at least it seemed that way. The final bell rang, signifying that the students may go home. Andrew walked with Sophie to their lockers and got ready to go home. "Sophie," he said with a smile. "Do you have any questions about how we're going to do this? We need to talk everything through, so if you need to ask me anything, don't hesitate." He gave her a soft kiss to her cheek. They soon reached Andrew's house, and as soon as they walked in, they headed straight for his room.

"Where are we going to live? How are we going to tell our parents? Everything is just so hard." She whispered, laying back on his bed. She was so confused it was then i struck her. "Andrew we have a scan tomorrow." She smiled gently.

Andrew smiled at Sophie. "We're going to live here. We're going to tell our parents together. And yes we do." He lay down on the bed and cuddled close with her. "We're going to get through this, I promise you." He gave her a gently kiss on her lips and stared deep into her eyes.

[Sakari]

"We can't live here forever." She whispered, holding onto him tightly. She couldn't wait for the scan but she was still worried on how her parents where going to react.

[Yasuo Takahashi]

"We can live here as long as we need to." He kissed her softly on the cheek as he held her close. "When are we going to tell our parents?" He knew they had to eventually, they couldn't hide her pregnancy from them forever. "We can tell mine first, I know they'll have a better reaction." Andrew's parents were much more calm and relaxed than Sophie's. "I think the sooner we tell them, the better it'll be."

[Sakari]

Sophie nodded and took hold of Andrew's hand. "Lets tell them now." She whispered. She knew that she wanted to get it over and done with. She walked downstairs and hovered outside the living room door. She was nervous.

Andrew walked with Sophie slowly down the stairs. He could feel himself getting more nervous. They proceeded into the living room and sat down on the couch. "Mom! Dad!" Andrew called out, trying to grasp his parent's attention. "We need to talk!" His voice could be heard throughout the house, so he knew they would come. Both his parents walked in at the same time. "Oh, hi Sophie." his mother spoke in a kind, soft tone. "What is it?" his father asked as he entered the room. Sophie's stomach was partially concealed by the way she was sitting, so they hadn't notice it yet. "Something's happened." Andrew spoke with a nervous, yet firm tone. "And it's something you need to know and it has to be said." He held Sophie's hand tightly, and smiled at her. "Sophie's pregnant."

The room was silent for a moment, he could see the disbelief on his parents' faces. "Wh..." his mother studdered. "When...Did this happen?" "Four months ago." he replied moving his attention to his father. "Well what are you two going to do?" his father had a slight sense of anger to his tone. "We're going to raise it together." He held onto Sophie's hand tightly, never wanting to let go. "That's what we've decided to do and we're not changing our minds."

[Sakari]

Sophie nodded and clutched onto Andrews hand. She saw that Andrew's mum had a soft, gentle look on her face, Andrews dad had an calm look but she could see the anger in his eyes. "We both decided that we should tell our parents together." She whispered, giving a small smile. She felt a sence of relief but they still had to tell her parents.

[Yasuo Takahashi]

"Okay." his mother smiled at them. "This is going to be tough, but I want you two to get through it. We will be here for you, through it all. We'll do whatever we have to, to help you." Andrew smiled at his parents. He let go of Sophie's hand, walking across the room to hug them. He hugged his parents tightly. "I love you two. You're the best parents." He hugged them firmly only for a moment, before moving back to Sophie. "We need to go tell her parents now. We'll be back shortly."

[Sakari]

Sophie waved goodbye to Andrew's parents. The walked down the road to Sophie's house. Sophie stopped Andrew and turned to him. "Do we have to do it now?" She whispered, a scared look on her face.
