Sorry this next bit starts off a bit boring but towards the end gets interesting...
Karen admitted it was the worst summer holiday she’d ever had and was glad there was only one more day of the holiday left then she would be going back to school. After disobeying her parents on the first evening of the holidays by sleeping at Chris’ house the night she had been grounded for 2 weeks.
The only place she was allowed to go was to her skating lesson which was twice a week for half an hour and the rest of time the only way she’d be able to speak to Chris and Jayne was via her Iphone however, by the end of the first week of being grounded she used up all 500 minutes and 5000 texts she had available that month. This was all mainly texting and phoning Chris but she would only phone Chris on days when both her parents were out the house and at work so they didn’t listen into their conversation – there was a lot of flirting going on across the phone that’s why.
The second week as she had nothing else to do and no way of contacting Chris she decided to tidy her room from top to bottom literally and really longed it out so it took her the whole week so she had something to do. Occasionally she would wonder into her sister Diane bedroom when she was downstairs or in the garden with her friends and would nick her phone to text Chris or very quickly call him – that was until her sister caught her though mid week.
By the third week she was ungrounded but soon grounded again an hour later for being cheeky and continuously answering her mother back so spent another week being bored out of her mind. She was pinning to see Chris and missed him so much she cried to herself several times during each day she missed him that much.
Now the fourth week into the holidays she still wasn’t able to see Chris as she was going on holiday abroad to Spain for 7 days with her family which she hated right now. She had played up throwing tantrums like a 3 year old several times the day before they left hoping her mum would turn around and say she wasn’t allowed to go and would have to stay with her gran. She loved her gran as much as she loved Chris and knew if she stayed with her she would be allowed to get away with murder and would get to see Chris every day of the week. This however didn’t work.
She had refused to move from the hotel so spent the whole of the holiday inside the hotel crying and sulking whilst her family (mum, dad, sister, aunt, uncle and cousins) spent it outside enjoying the sun and hot weather in the pools and on the beach. A couple of days later she had been grounded once again for disobeying her parents again but this time she didn’t care because the reason was Chris. Whilst her family were at the beach she decided to go outside the hotel and walk into the town to buy Chris a postcard and a little present. She used up the only money she had to buy him something special and took her time to find him something special. She didn’t think her parents would find out about her little trip to town however her mum did when she went back to the hotel to get more sun lotion and found Karen wasn’t there. She had really scared her parents to death they thought she’d been taken and the thought of losing her little girl made her mother feel physically sick.
The following week they were back in England again and Karen had been ungrounded for the third and final time during the 6 weeks. She sobbed her heart out though when she arrived back and remembered that Chris was going abroad that same day she came back. They didn’t even have 5 minutes to go round his house on the way back from the airport he had already had to leave.
As soon as they got in the house she ran up to her room and broke down in tears and sat with her back against her bedroom door holding the little teddy tightly in her hands that she had brought Chris back from Spain. She wouldn’t be able to give it to him now until the day they went back to school as he was away for the last two weeks of the holiday and didn’t come back until late evening the day before they went back to school.
For the next 2 weeks she had sleepovers and girly shopping trips with Jayne and a few other girls from school in her year but she wasn’t her happy self and everyone could see it. She had been bursting into tears every hour of the day and her smile was a forced one. None of her friends had ever seen her that upset and depressed they knew Chris made her happy and he was her everything but they didn’t think she would get this depressed about not seeing him for a few weeks.
It was the day before school started again - the last day of the summer holidays. Karen woke up that morning feeling so rough and such cramps in her stomach she had never experienced this time of pain before though. She got up and went straight to the bathroom she thought it may be her period starting she hadn’t had one in quite a few weeks and never thought anything of it. However when she got there it wasn’t instead she threw up viciously a couple of times.
The house was so quiet both her parents were at work and her sister had gone out with her friends for the day. Karen went back into her bedroom pulled her warm covers back over her body and clutched hold of her stomach. She lay in the silence thinking for a while then something suddenly came into her mind how had she never thought of this before she thought. Getting up again she got dressed, done her hair and make-up then quickly had breakfast and went out for a while.
It wasn’t long until she got home and the house was still empty exactly what she wanted and hoped if her mind was correct. She went to the bathroom and closed the door behind her rummaging through all the junk in her bag she got out the little box she’d brought from the pharmacy. The little blonde done what she needed to do for the test then sat back for a few moments and waited for the results of her test.
She held the stick tightly in her hand tears streaming down her face. All she could think was question upon question upon question. Her heart began to beat faster as that fast she thought it was going come out of her skin. The test results were now ready for her to look at but she wasn’t ready to look just yet she was scared and didn’t know what to do she didn’t know how she could feel this she hadn’t looked at the result yet it might have all been nothing and she’d worked herself up over it.
About 20 minutes later she decided she was finally ready and took a deep breath before moving her hands away from the test in front of her. For a moment her heart stopped beating that’s what it felt like anyway. Her instincts were right the test showed up positive – she was pregnant.
If she hadn’t been shocked enough already she was even more now when she heard her mother’s voice call her from down the stairs as she came through the front door. She jumped out of her daze of thoughts running across the hallway to her room and hiding the test in her sock draw she sat back on her bed deep in thought. What was she going to do? – she needed to talk to Chris and urgently that’s what she had to do but he wasn’t getting home until half past nine that evening it would be too late for her to go and see him, and she couldn’t discuss it in her house where her parents were likely to overhear.
“Karen… you in sweetie?” her mother called as she walked up the stairs to Karen’ room. Karen quickly wiped the tears away from her eyes but her mum knew she’d been crying as soon as she entered the room.
“Yeah I’m fine” she pretended to be texting her mum wasn’t stupid though and sat on the edge of her daughter’s bed.
“You’ve been crying darling. What’s the matter?” she asked pulling her daughter onto her lap and holding her tightly. Karen was still her mummy’s little girl no matter what and would quite often would sit on her mums lap and have a cuddle when she was upset.
“I just miss Chris so much I haven’t seen him at all this holiday and barely spoke to him in the last few weeks as I used all my texts and minutes up in the first week…” she sobbed wrapping her arms around her mother and resting her head on her shoulder. She couldn’t tell her mum she was pregnant or she’d be in so much trouble she cried more not knowing what to do but it was definitely not for her mum to find out – not just yet anyway she needed to tell Chris first before anyone.
“It’s ok my baby girl you will be able to see him tomorrow won’t you?” her mum said comforting her daughter. Karen nodded her head in reply.
They lay down on Karen’ bed cuddling in silence having some mother and daughter time and her mum got up to do the housework a while later when she noticed her little girl had fallen asleep her arms.
Later that day Karen sent a text from her mums phone which the message read:
Hi babe, I need to talk to you and it’s urgent I’ve something to tell you! Please try not to be late for school tomorrow I need to tell you as soon as but I can’t text it! Don’t text back hun mum said I could only send one text on her phone, speak tomorrow hope you had a good holiday I’m so excited to see you! Sweet dreams :D xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
More or is it getting boring? x

Sorry again the next bit is quite boring!
06:00am the next morning Karen had woken before everyone else as she wanted to be early her first day back to see Chris. She went to the bathroom had a quick shower and washed her hair. Once she was out the shower she wrapped her fluffy bathrobe around her small frame to she brushed her teeth and applied a little make-up. Before getting dressed she blow dried and straightened her hair with ghd’s and squirted some hair serum in her hands rubbed them together and rubbed her hands over her hair making it extra shinny.
An hour later she was ready to put her uniform on which she had picked out a black pleated skirt – way too short for school but she didn’t care she wore it for Chris, crystal white polo-shirt that she left the buttons undone, with a black cardigan and black knee high socks.
By 07:30am the young northerner was out of the house eating a slice of toast as she walked down the road towards Jayne’ house. Jayne was unaware that her best friend was pregnant. Karen had just told her she wanted to get to school earlier that day so she could spend some time with Chris before lessons.
When they arrived outside their school Chris was waiting for Karen. As soon as she saw him her face lit up and she ran the fastest she could into his arms that he had open wide ready to envelope her in. They were both so excited to see one another it was like they’d spent a whole decade apart rather than a few weeks. This moment felt so special to them both as they embraced in an intimate moment until a teacher came and shovelled them along telling them to get inside the school grounds.
Jayne had left them 10 minutes ago to be on their own she knew Karen had been more than a little depressed having not seen Chris in a few weeks. They continued to embrace in their moment again once inside the school grounds hugging and kissing whispering cute little things like ‘I love you’ and ‘I’ve missed you so much’.
Karen had for those past few minutes forgotten all about the news she had to tell Chris then she remembered just as the bell for first lesson rang. She would have to wait 2 and half hours now and tell him during break. They kissed once more before getting separated by the same teacher who’d told them to get inside school grounds already that morning. Going different directions they went off to their first lesson.
All through her first lesson which was English Karen couldn’t concentrate all she could think about was her, Chris and a baby and of course how the hell she was going to tell her parents she was up the duff and not even 16 until the next year.
There was so much running around in circles on her mind her mind was on overdrive. What about all her exams? How would she be able to take them with a baby? Would it still be possible to take them? What was Chris’s reaction going to be? What was her parent’s reaction going to be? Would Chris still love her if he found out she was pregnant? Was he ready to start a family yet or would he just run away from her? Was she going to be judged by her friends and family and teachers now for getting her-self pregnant underage? She was nearly in tears as she sat at the back of the classroom in a daydream gazing out the window. Once she’d snapped out of her daydream she sneakily rummaged around in her school bag that was on her desk until she found her IPhone. Quickly looking around to make sure her teacher wasn’t looking she typed as fast as she could a message to Chris now that her pay monthly contract had reset that morning – meaning she was able to message and call again.
Her text to Chris read:
Babe this I urgent I really need to tell you something it can’t wait until break! Don’t go to your next lesson when the bell goes and meet me in the back playground. Love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She had managed to send the text just in time as the next thing she knows her teacher his standing over her shoulder and has snatched the phone out of her hands. The rest of the class turned around and were gawping at Karen who was being yelled at by their English teacher.
“Texting your boyfriend in lessons Miss Barber. I don’t think so. I’ll be looking after this for the rest of lesson and you can have it back at the end. No start paying attention you’ve been daydreaming ever since you walked in sort yourself out girl you’ve got exams in this next year unless you want to fail then stop the daydreaming and concentrate” the woman yelled.
“Sorry Ms… I’ve a lot on my mind” Karen said quietly once the rest of the class had turned away.
“I don’t want to hear your excuses just concentrate I thought we agreed you’d be turning a new leaf as from today. I don’t want to have to have you in detention on your first day back” The tall middle aged woman walked towards the front of the classroom again and placed karen’ IPhone on her desk.

(I apologise for any spelling and grammar mistakes i did write this update at 4 this morning when i woke up and couldn't get back to sleep I just forgot to post it!)
Just before the end of lesson 1 whilst they were packing away Karen’s English teacher approached her to hand her phone back - giving her a quick lecture of the school rules.
"Don’t let me catch you texting in my lesson ever again or I won't be half this nice next time. Ok. Cheer up and concentrate next lesson if you don't I'll be moving you to that special spot right in front of my desk" Karen glanced over at the desk her teacher pointed too where no one ever liked to sit.
"ok" Karen replied quietly putting her phone away in her bag hoping Chris had revived her message.
As soon as she heard the bells ringing for next lesson Karen escaped the classroom as quickly as she could. She took a slow pace around the back of the school in hope no one would catch her trying to skive her next lesson.
Her body wasn’t shaking as much anymore when she turned the corner to the playground at the back of the school and saw Chris waiting for her again.
This time he walked towards the tiny northerner. He pushed her gently against the wall of the school building making his lips meet hers. She allow him to kiss her for a minute or two before breaking the passionate moment up - she didn't want to, but had to.
"Chris we need to talk there's something I need to tell you" she spoke seriously as she looked directly into his gorgeous eyes. He moved his hands to her waist feeling hers linked together behind his neck - she wanted to stand to him as close as she possibly could the moment she told him about the baby.
"Are you ok babe?" he asked softly kissing her forehead.
"Yes... No... I am but I am not. I need to tell you something but before I do I need to know that you aren't going to run away from me and that you will let me say what I have to without interrupting"
"of course sweetheart"
"I'm... I'm... Pre... Pregnant" her voice said shakily he could hear the fear as she spoke.
"Ahhh, why would I run from you babe? It takes two to tango. How long have you know?"
"Yesterday morning"
"how far gone?"
"I don't know I'm guessing it happened the night of the party we never used a… you know... I was being too impatient remember “she spoke remembering back to that night a few weeks ago.
"Do you want to keep it?"
"Yes... Unless you want me to get rid of it then I will"
"Don’t be daft. I would never make you get rid of our child. I will support you whatever you decide to do and will be here for you. I promise. The most important question now is are you ok?" Karen knew Chris would be true to his words and would support her because he was a real man unlike most lads his age.
"Yes I'm fine... I've had a bit of morning sickness yesterday and today but other than that I'm fine. And especially fine if I'm in your arms" she cried.
"shhhhhh shhhhh everythings going to be ok" he pulled her in closer to his body and kissed her tears away.
His lips hovered above hers as they embraced in a very intimate kiss and Karen continued to cry. She wasn't sure if it was because she was so happy now that she had told him or weather it was her hormones getting to get already - whatever it was she didn't care as longs as she was with chris.
The young loved up couple were unaware though that Karen's English teacher had been stood around the corner of the building listening into their conversation and heard from the point of "I'm pregnant".
"Karen. Is that you?" the teacher asked completely shocked but not surprised - the teenage couple were so loved up from the first day they started dating you could see it happening sooner or later.

Karen never replied just turned around looked in the woman’s eyes not knowing what to say as she wasn’t sure whether she’d heard anything and if she had how much. She knew she was going to be in some serious trouble for skiving her lesson especially after having her phone taken away from her in English.
No one was saying anything the three of them just stood completely still in silence. Chris still had his arms around Karen’ waist and hers were wrapped around his neck.
“You are suspended Miss Barber not only have you broken the rule of phones in school during lessons you have also broken the rule of skiving lessons. Get your bag and come with me to my office I will be making a phone call home” the woman said sternly and Karen knew now she was in deep ****.
“Come along now!” her teacher snapped when she turned back around to catch the pair having a sneaky kiss.
“I said now Miss Barber. Your mother isn’t going to be very happy when she finds out about this one. And Master Dean get back to your lesson now you may be in sixth forum but it doesn’t mean bringing your girlfriend around the back of the school-when she’s suppose to be in lessons to have a quick snog is acceptable. I will talk to you later. You are supposed to be setting an example to this young lady not leading her on-and this one doesn’t need any leading on.” She rolled her eyes as the loved-up teenage couple kissed once more and let go of each other’s bodies.
“Alright I’m coming keep your hair on. God!” Karen moaned.
“He won’t help you and enough of the cheek please” the woman told a young Karen off again.
“Don’t you have a lesson to go to Christopher?” she said hearing him laugh at Karen getting told off.
“Yeah Chris…to…pher” Karen said sarcastically with a cheeky giggle.
“Karen Barber” the woman shouted beginning to get very pissed off with the pair now.
“Sorry miss” Karen replied looking down innocently at the ground and followed her English teacher to the office in the English department and Chris went back to his lesson apologising for his lateness making such a crapy excuse up.
When they reached the office the teacher sat down at her desk and pointed at a chair Karen was to sit in opposite her and she was made to explain herself-which wasn’t a very successful task as Karen stayed completely silent for once.
*** Back at the Barber’s house not far from Karen’ upper school her mother had come across something in her daughter’ room she wasn’t expecting to find-the pregnancy test. She had just ironed a load of her daughters’ clothes and was putting them away in the drawers-knowing Karen would just dump them on the floor and they would need ironing-again and that was when she came across the pregnancy test Karen thought she had hid.
She pulled the small object from underneath one of Karen’ tops and nearly collapsed in the middle of the room. She was hoping it wasn’t what she thought it was-but it was. She didn’t know whether to shout or cry. Her daughter, her beautiful baby girl was pregnant and she wasn’t even legal to be having sexual intercourse yet. Her mother wasn’t even aware she was having sexual intercourse, she assumed it was Chris’ baby-which it was as the couple were so close and in love she just couldn’t believe how fast her little girl was growing up.
*ring… ring… ring…* the phone began ringing at first she never answered-still too much in shock. Then they called back and this time she answered.
“Hello… yes Mrs Barber is speaking… *sighs* what has she done now?... ok I’ll be there as soon as I can… bye” she put the phone down put her shoes on and grabbed her car keys from the kitchen then drove off to the school to collect her daughter.
Sorry I haven't updated this or any of my fics in a long time. I hope this isn't getting boring. x
