Your name is [17 year old female, surname 1’s name] and you’re seventeen years old. Since the age of ten, you’ve been friends with [17 year old female, surname 2’s name] and had a little crush on her brother, [18 year old male, surname 2’s name].

One day, you and [best friend] have plans to do homework at the library. So you show up at her house to pick her up but [her brother] tells you she just stepped out to run to the store. He invites you in and you hesitantly accept. You two are just sitting in the kitchen eating crackers with dip, drinking lemonade and joking around when he grabs your hand out of the blue. He then, despite the utterly shocked look on your face, tells you that he’s had a crush on you for a few years now. You absolutely swoon. By the time [best friend] gets home, you have a date for the next night.

The next day, you wake up already excited about your date with [best friend’s brother]. You two meet for lunch and go to a matinee movie, but end up spending the rest of the night together at his house. By the time the date is over, you’re officially his girlfriend.

Over the next couple of months you grow closer. Your best friend is thrilled but a little put off by your relationship. Then, one day, the three of you are hanging out when she decides to run out and pick up a pizza. You and [boyfriend] are kissing on the couch and then all of a sudden, you’re on top of him. An hour later when [best friend] returns, you’re back to holding hands on the couch with sneaky little smiles.

In the months to come, you and [boyfriend] grow even closer and everyone knows you’ll be together forever. One day, you wake up feeling a little funny, but brush it off. You realize you haven’t had your period in a while but don’t quite put two and two together and use it as an excuse for feeling a little funny. You mention this to your boyfriend and he freaks out and buys you a pregnancy test to take. It’s positive. At seventeen, you’re not exactly thrilled but you and [boyfriend] discuss it and decide you couldn’t possibly imagine not keeping the baby. You make a deal to tell your parents.

You return home and that night call your older sister, [20 year old female, surname 1] and tell her. She’s not exactly thrilled either, but says she’ll support you in the future if you need it. With her support behind you, you decide to tell your parents. You sit them down after dinner when your younger siblings are out of the room and tell them that you’re pregnant. Your mother remains calm but your father flies off the handle and tells you that you have three days to move out. You run upstairs crying to the room you share with [14 year old female, surname 1]. She asks what’s wrong and you tell her through a flood of tears. She says that your father, [51 year old man, surname 1] will calm down and she’s sure he’ll support you alongside your mother, [44 year old female, surname 3].

But he doesn’t. Three days pass and you’ve packed up your stuff just in case. You return home to find your father standing at the doorway refusing you entry. Your sister, [14 year old female] brings down your stuff and hugs you goodbye before your father slams the door in your face. You walk over with your suitcase and backpack to [best friend]'s house. You and [boyfriend] concocted a plan for this scenario. He gives you a bus ticket he purchased earlier in the week and tells you to go to your sister, [20 year old female]'s house a few hours away. His parents were more understanding than yours, but told him that he was never to see you again. You kiss him goodbye, hug your best friend and make your way to the bus depot.

When you show up at your sister’s house that night, ragged, tired and upset, she welcomes you with open arms. She and her boyfriend, [24 year old male, surname 4], make you a bed on the couch and tell you to stay as long as you need.

By the time you are showing, life at [20 year old female]'s house has become almost-normal. You now sleep on a camp bed in the alcove and your boyfriend had been to see you three times. You’re not in school but you’ve found a job working at a chain restaurant. You give birth to a baby [roll the dice, evens are girls, odds are boys] late in the [name_u]Winter[/name_u] before your eighteenth birthday.

But he doesn’t. Three days pass and you’ve packed up your stuff just in case. You return home to find your father standing at the doorway refusing you entry. Your sister, [name_f]Jade[/name_f] brings down your stuff and hugs you goodbye before your father slams the door in your face. You walk over with your suitcase and backpack to [name_u]Rory[/name_u]'s house. You and [name_m]Colten[/name_m] concocted a plan for this scenario. He gives you a bus ticket he purchased earlier in the week and tells you to go to your sister, [name_f]Stella[/name_f]'s house a few hours away. His parents were more understanding than yours, but told him that he was never to see you again. You kiss him goodbye, hug your best friend and make your way to the bus depot.

By the time you are showing, life at [name_f]Stella[/name_f]'s house has become almost-normal. You now sleep on a camp bed in the alcove and your boyfriend had been to see you three times.

Your name is [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] [name_f]Lila[/name_f] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m] “[name_f]Beth[/name_f]” and you’re seventeen years old. Since the age of ten, you’ve been friends with [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Lena[/name_f] [name_m]Newman[/name_m] and had a little crush on her brother, [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] [name_m]Newman[/name_m].

One day, you and [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] have plans to do homework at the library. So you show up at her house to pick her up but [name_u]James[/name_u] tells you she just stepped out to run to the store. He invites you in and you hesitantly accept. You two are just sitting in the kitchen eating crackers with dip, drinking lemonade and joking around when he grabs your hand out of the blue. He then, despite the utterly shocked look on your face, tells you that he’s had a crush on you for a few years now. You absolutely swoon. By the time [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] gets home, you have a date for the next night.

The next day, you wake up already excited about your date with [name_u]James[/name_u]. You two meet for lunch and go to a matinee movie, but end up spending the rest of the night together at his house. By the time the date is over, you’re officially his girlfriend.

Over the next couple of months you grow closer. Your best friend is thrilled but a little put off by your relationship. Then, one day, the three of you are hanging out when she decides to run out and pick up a pizza. You and [name_u]James[/name_u] are kissing on the couch and then all of a sudden, you’re on top of him. An hour later when [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] returns, you’re back to holding hands on the couch with sneaky little smiles.

In the months to come, you and [name_u]James[/name_u] grow even closer and everyone knows you’ll be together forever. One day, you wake up feeling a little funny, but brush it off. You realize you haven’t had your period in a while but don’t quite put two and two together and use it as an excuse for feeling a little funny. You mention this to your boyfriend and he freaks out and buys you a pregnancy test to take. It’s positive. At seventeen, you’re not exactly thrilled but you and [name_u]James[/name_u] discuss it and decide you couldn’t possibly imagine not keeping the baby. You make a deal to tell your parents.

You return home and that night call your older sister, [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_f]Elodie[/name_f] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m] “[name_f]Ella[/name_f]” and tell her. She’s not exactly thrilled either, but says she’ll support you in the future if you need it. With her support behind you, you decide to tell your parents. You sit them down after dinner when your younger siblings are out of the room and tell them that you’re pregnant. Your mother remains calm but your father flies off the handle and tells you that you have three days to move out. You run upstairs crying to the room you share with [name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_f]Molly[/name_f] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m]. She asks what’s wrong and you tell her through a flood of tears.

You’re not in school but you’ve found a job working at a chain restaurant. You give birth to a baby boy late in the [name_u]Winter[/name_u] before your eighteenth birthday. His name is [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m].

You give your baby your last name and bring him home to your sister and her boyfriend. You’re worried about so many things - your life, your job, your family - but you’re absolutely in love with your baby.

She asks what’s wrong and you tell her through a flood of tears. She says that your father, [name_m]Raymond[/name_m] [name_u]Alden[/name_u] “[name_u]Ray[/name_u]” [name_m]Newman[/name_m], will calm down and she’s sure he’ll support you alongside your mother, [name_f]Leilani[/name_f] [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] “[name_f]Lani[/name_f]” [name_m]Anderson[/name_m].

But he doesn’t. Three days pass and you’ve packed up your stuff just in case. You return home to find your father standing at the doorway refusing you entry. Your sister, [name_u]Amari[/name_u], brings down your stuff and hugs you goodbye before your father slams the door in your face. You walk over with your suitcase and backpack to [name_u]Rylee[/name_u]'s house. You and [name_m]Colten[/name_m] concocted a plan for this scenario. He gives you a bus ticket he purchased earlier in the week and tells you to go to your sister, [name_f]Jayla[/name_f]'s house a few hours away. His parents were more understanding than yours, but told him that he was never to see you again. You kiss him goodbye, hug your best friend and make your way to the bus depot.

When you show up at your sister’s house that night, ragged, tired and upset, she welcomes you with open arms. She and her boyfriend, [name_u]Casey[/name_u] [name_m]Aaden[/name_m] [name_m]Manning[/name_m], make you a bed on the couch and tell you to stay as long as you need.

By the time you are showing, life at [name_f]Jayla[/name_f]'s house has become almost-normal. You now sleep on a camp bed in the alcove and your boyfriend had been to see you three times. You’re not in school but you’ve found a job working at a chain restaurant. You give birth to a baby, [name_u]Ash[/name_u] [name_m]Colten[/name_m], late in the [name_u]Winter[/name_u] before your eighteenth birthday.

You give your baby your last name and bring him home to your sister and her boyfriend. You’re worried about so many things - your life, your job, your family - but you’re absolutely in love with your baby.

Your name is [name_f]Stella[/name_f] [name_u]Romy[/name_u] [name_m]Manning[/name_m] and you’re seventeen years old. Since the age of ten, you’ve been friends with [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] [name_f]Athena[/name_f] [name_m]Bowman[/name_m] and had a little crush on her brother, [name_m]Roman[/name_m] [name_m]Chance[/name_m] [name_m]Bowman[/name_m].

One day, you and [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] have plans to do homework at the library. So you show up at her house to pick her up but [name_m]Roman[/name_m]]tells you she just stepped out to run to the store. He invites you in and you hesitantly accept. You two are just sitting in the kitchen eating crackers with dip, drinking lemonade and joking around when he grabs your hand out of the blue. He then, despite the utterly shocked look on your face, tells you that he’s had a crush on you for a few years now. You absolutely swoon. By the time [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] gets home, you have a date for the next night.

The next day, you wake up already excited about your date with [name_m]Roman[/name_m]. You two meet for lunch and go to a matinee movie, but end up spending the rest of the night together at his house. By the time the date is over, you’re officially his girlfriend.

Over the next couple of months you grow closer. Your best friend is thrilled but a little put off by your relationship. Then, one day, the three of you are hanging out when she decides to run out and pick up a pizza. You and [name_m]Roman[/name_m] are kissing on the couch and then all of a sudden, you’re on top of him. An hour later when [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] returns, you’re back to holding hands on the couch with sneaky little smiles.

In the months to come, you and [boyfriend] grow even closer and everyone knows you’ll be together forever. One day, you wake up feeling a little funny, but brush it off. You realize you haven’t had your period in a while but don’t quite put two and two together and use it as an excuse for feeling a little funny. You mention this to your boyfriend and he freaks out and buys you a pregnancy test to take. It’s positive. At seventeen, you’re not exactly thrilled but you and [name_m]Roman[/name_m] discuss it and decide you couldn’t possibly imagine not keeping the baby. You make a deal to tell your parents.

You return home and that night call your older sister, [name_u]Rowan[/name_u] [name_u]Marley[/name_u], and tell her. She’s not exactly thrilled either, but says she’ll support you in the future if you need it. With her support behind you, you decide to tell your parents. You sit them down after dinner when your younger siblings are out of the room and tell them that you’re pregnant. Your mother remains calm but your father flies off the handle and tells you that you have three days to move out. You run upstairs crying to the room you share with [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] [name_f]Molly[/name_f]. She asks what’s wrong and you tell her through a flood of tears. She says that your father, [name_m]Edgar[/name_m] [name_m]Brandon[/name_m], will calm down and she’s sure he’ll support you alongside your mother, [name_f]Lena[/name_f] [name_f]Melanie[/name_f] [name_m]Graham[/name_m].

But he doesn’t. Three days pass and you’ve packed up your stuff just in case. You return home to find your father standing at the doorway refusing you entry. Your sister, [name_f]Abigail[/name_f], brings down your stuff and hugs you goodbye before your father slams the door in your face. You walk over with your suitcase and backpack to [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]'s house. You and [boyfriend] concocted a plan for this scenario. He gives you a bus ticket he purchased earlier in the week and tells you to go to your sister,[name_u]Rowan[/name_u]'s, house a few hours away. His parents were more understanding than yours, but told him that he was never to see you again. You kiss him goodbye, hug your best friend and make your way to the bus depot.

When you show up at your sister’s house that night, ragged, tired and upset, she welcomes you with open arms. She and her boyfriend, [name_m]Cole[/name_m] [name_m]Augustus[/name_m] [name_m]Anderson[/name_m], make you a bed on the couch and tell you to stay as long as you need.

By the time you are showing, life at [name_u]Rowan[/name_u]'s house has become almost-normal. You now sleep on a camp bed in the alcove and your boyfriend had been to see you three times. You’re not in school but you’ve found a job working at a chain restaurant. You give birth to a baby girl, named [name_f]Rose[/name_f] [name_u]Meredith[/name_u], late in the [name_u]Winter[/name_u] before your eighteenth birthday.

You give your baby your last name and bring her home to your sister and her boyfriend. You’re worried about so many things - your life, your job, your family - but you’re absolutely in love with your baby.
