Thing Are Changing Too Fast...

Chapter 1

Whoever created the saying 'Things are changing too fast' was totally, undoubtedly correct. The world, population growth, technology and just life in general. I can honestly say that life is moving the fastest out of everything.

It feels like just yesterday I walked into my pre-school, but unfortunately my life is no longer that simple. I am at the end of my high school life. I never thought that I would make it this far in life with all that shit that I am caught up in. My life has gone from a happy childhood in my foster home – or as happy as a foster child could be – to complete and utter shit.

I have been moved to at least five different foster houses because the head of the houses was either abusive or I was forced to leave for bad behaviour. My life has not been easy.

My life had finally started to look up a few months back but I had to go and fuck it up by getting pregnant after a drunken hook up. I am so scared to tell my foster parents; they had been so sweet to me, unlike my previous wardens, I have to tell the father too. I have been hiding out at my best friends apartment for the last seven months, I am about nine months along now. My foster parents understand that I want to be alone so they let me be, they have other kids to look after anyway.

Kaden and Colton (my foster parents) told me that after my parents died all their money was left to me, including their house as well as the rest of their assets, it seems as though my previous caretakers had forgotten to tell me this little - but not so little - bit of information. I took a look at their will two weeks ago, my biological parents were rich and successful, they left me their house which I would be living in with my baby, the money was enough to buy things for my baby and myself at the same time, and their company is gonna go to me because then I would be able to keep a healthy lifestyle.

Kaitie (my best friend and roommate) walked in and succeeded in breaking me out of my thoughts. "What you doing Abby?" Katie was a generally curious person as well as friendly.

"Nothing much," I did not see the point in telling her what was happening in my mind, seeing as she never listens completely to what I say. I love Kaitie and all but sometimes she just works on my nerves, although it could just be the pregnancy hormones.

"Abby?" Katie sounded from the kitchen. She sounded too sweet when talking, like she did something wrong or that I will not like – call it a motherly instinct – she cannot fool me.

"Yes," I felt very weary of what was going to come out of that mouth of hers.

"I told him," I could hear the fear in her voice.

"YOU DID WHAT?!" to say that I was furious was an understatement. How could she do that to me and my baby. Of course I was going to tell him eventually – meaning never – but I was going to wait until I actually saw him again.

Again I say that things are changing way too fast.

A knock went through the apartment. Both Kaitie (who was standing at the kitchen threshold) and I froze. Getting up and taking hesitant steps towards the door, I was scared to see what the other side held in store for me. I opened the door to find Kaden and Colton standing and waiting patiently.

"Oh my gosh, Jason was right," said Colton holding the same shocked look as Kaden.

Shit!

They were not supposed to find out this way. I was hoping than They would only find out in a few days seeing as I am due tomorrow. I was so afraid that Kaden and Colton would look at me differently that I did not tell them about the baby, albeit I am happy that it is not Jason standing at the door.

"Why did you not tell us?" there was so much hurt in Kadens voice that I could not bear to look at him.

Suddenly I was pulled into an embrace. I could not help but hug back, Colton and Kadens warmth calmed me down considerably but I could not help but wish that it was Jason holding me and not them.

Jason, that ass of a baby daddy. The day after we hooked up he was the biggest dick on the planet. Jason and I were never a couple but I did love him, we were best friends for as long as I can remember. The more time that we spent together, the more I fell for him. When I saw him the day after he acted like nothing happened and then when he got me alone he told me that it was nothing, that I was nothing but a quick fuck in his eyes, not even his best friend anymore.

"I am so sorry guys, I just could not tell you knowing that the father might find out," I said with a small smile that was not near reaching my eyes.

"It is okay but you have a lo-" Kaden was cut off by a cry that was drawn from my lips.

There was a pain in my lower abdomen, the pain that I was feeling could only mean one thing.

My baby was coming to meet his mommy.
