I couldn't believe it. How was I going to tell my best friend Bella, How was I supposed to confront him. I looked at myself in the mirror my face full of tears my eyes had dark circles and my nose was red. I had been crying for the last two hours in the damn bathroom.

Knowing that Bella will be here soon, I cleaned my face and took a cold long shower. I got out and and got dressed quickly. Trying to fool Bella I put ' Titanic ' on the Tv. She knew I always cry seeing that movie and it was the perfect way to make her believe that everything was okay.

Bella walked in the house. Her own small house. She dropped her bag and let out a long tired sigh.

" So, how was work ? "

" Ok, but I am tired. You okay "

" Yeah "

She looked at me for more time than I would have liked, she knew I was lying but thank god she didn't push it. She looked around the room awkwardly but after a full minute of silence she just shook her head and went to the bathroom.

I continued to cry silently and looking at the floor. After 10 minutes Bella walked out of the bathroom furious. I made eye contact with her and she raised her eyebrow in a questioning manner.

" How long were you gonna keep it a secret ? "

" Longer than this "

" Bella I-- "

" No, Listen to me Alice. You have no job, you're only 17 and you are not mature enough to raise a child. What the hell were you thinking ! "

" I wasn't, It ju-- "

" Happened, right "

I could sense the sarcasm in her voice. I hated it fighting with her and even though she was right I didn't wanted to accept the fact that I was an idiot. Listening to her saying to me that I have no responsibility enough to be a mother hurt me deeply.

" Isabella, I swear I didn't wan this to happen "

" Alice, you are nowhere near ready to be a mother, You have to go to school, get a job, raise a baby and take care of yourself. Do you understand that ? "

That reminded me of her not too long ago, worried because she was late and she had no use protection while in one of her escapades. I didn't judge her just supported her. Why was she not doing the same now.

" When you almost were I supp-- "

" Mary Alice Brandon ! I was already 18 had a job and a boyfriend of 3 years who was ready to marry me, You are not 18 yet, have no boyfriend and no job. I don't mind you being at my house you are my best friend and I love you, but you have to realize that you're gonna have to be a woman now. It's not just your life "

I listened to her words each one of them reminding me of how much I was nothing compared to her. I wish this to be all a dream but it was my reality.

" I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry "

I began to sob uncontrollably and Bella hugged me whispering to me that it was gonna be okay. I knew it wasn't but her words offered comfort to me. Now that Bella knew and she was by my side. There was still one thing for me to do, Tell the father.
