Destiny

Chapter One

Sighing I tie my hair in to a messy bun staring at myself in the mirror. It's been two days since the whole incident with Austin and I haven't spoken to him or anyone since then. I look at my clock and see it's time to leave so I grab my bag and phone and make my way downstairs.
"Have a good day!" My aunt Louisa shouts as I bound down the steps out in to nature. I throw my penny board on to the ground and kick off.

"Hey! Wanna chill later?" Shawn asks smirking at me. I stare at him in disbelief. "Cuz you know, I need help studying," he smirks winking at me. That's when I figure out what he means. Austin told people. I shove past Shawn and look down the hallways for Austin. I spot him by the water fountain and feel my head pounding.
"How could you do this to me?" I ask feeling tears form up in my eyes. The usual friendly smile he wears drops in to a confused expression. "You told people!" I accuse tears falling down my face. He grabs my forearm and leads me in to a janitors closet.
"I didn't tell anyone anything! Taylor I've wanted to talk to you but ever since you left I didn't know what to say," he states running his fingers through his hair. "God Taylor, I wouldn't do something like this to you," he adds whispering. I look at him and wipe away some of the tears.
"So then who's going around telling people I'll help them tutor and do stuff?" I ask plopping on to the ground. He shakes his head and groans.
"Chelsea wasn't home. Nobody was there," he mutters biting his lip nervously.
"Austin, are you sure nobody else could've showed up between the time that we were studying and the time I left?" I question leaning my head against the wall.
"But the person also would've been around to hear me ask you to come over," he explains and I nod.
"God I was so stupid," I mutter running my hands through my hair nervously.
"Taylor, I made the first move and I shouldn't have taken it that far and I'm so sorry," he whispers looking down.
"I didn't stop you," I counter standing up. "I'll see you around Mahone," I add leaving him behind in the janitors closet.
- Three Days Later -
I sigh and flush the contents down the toilet. I brush my teeth and rinse out my mouth with mouthwash. I throw water on my face and then dry off. Knocking on the bathroom door brings me back in to reality.
"Here," my older sister Heidi instructs handing me three different boxes. I look at them and gulp. Pregnancy tests. "It'll be okay Taylor. Whatever the results, I'm always going to be here and help you," she says encouragingly. I nod and bring them in to the bathroom. I close the door and take a breath. I sit down and do my business over the toilet. The next minutes were the most excruciatingly longest minutes of my life. Slowly but surely the results pop up one after another. One negative, one unanswered and a positive. I open the door and allow Heidi in.
"I'm afraid we're going to have to get more. This isn't right. Give me a minute," she says before running up to her guest room. Minutes later she returns with more tests. I stake them and complete the cycle over again. I began breathing heavily trying to control the anxiety panic attack that was happening. "Let me in," Heidi demands and somehow I am able to open the door and she wraps her arms around me. "I've got your back," she whispers kissing the top of my head.
