Seventeen and Pregnant (Avenged Sevenfold)

Deanna’s P.O.V.
It’s Christmas Eve and Jimmy was helping me and my mom prepare dinner for everyone. All the families were coming over, my brother and my dad set the living room up for us teenagers to be in while the adults get the table in the dinning hall. Katie was with Matt today Christmas shopping and spending time with him. I guess she told him what happened and he didn’t forgive her easily but they were working it out. Johnny though was looking a lot more down.
“You alright bro?” I asked coming into the living room. He sat at the table tracing his finger on it and sighed.
“No not really,” He sighed, “It’s Katie…she just seems off Deanna, is she ok?” He asked looking at me and my face flushed, how was I going to tell him that she wasn’t? That she lied to him this whole time?
“Yeah,” I lied, putting on a fake smile, “She’s just fine,” He gave me a small smile and went into the kitchen to help mom and I felt tears streaming down my face. I went to my room, grabbed my skateboard and went out the front door to go and board. I just wanted to be alone, there was so much going on in my head and my emotions were taking a tole on me, the one of many things that I didn’t like about being a girl. I was an emotional wreck but being on my board was helping me a lot.
I went to the skate park and went and board my heart out. Letting all these emotions get away from me and felt happy again. When I was done, I came and sat on the bench catching my breath and got up and got a drink from the water fountain. Some guy was trying to talk to me, hit on me actually and I got into his face and shoved him away, then I got into a big fight and got smacked across the face with a skateboard. Cops were involved and needless to say when I came home in a cop car, my dad raced out of the house, and my mom demanding to know what happened.
The cops told them about the fight, I was free they were just giving me a ride home and telling them what happened, that I was fine except for the butterfly stitch by my eye and my bruised cheek and my headache.
Jimmy was worried like crazy and so was Zacky, who came over early because he was hungry. They kept asking if I was alright and I nearly blew up at them, my mom told them to calm down and I went up to my room and took a hot shower calming down my nerves. Even though I was happy about having this baby, I was hating the hormones but there was nothing I could do about that.
I came out, got dressed and looked at my desk seeing a love letter from Jimmy. must have been when I was out and about at the skate park. I bit my bottom lip reading it, him telling me how much he loved me, how important I was to him and what he had dreamed about last night. About us being a family.
The thought of me and Jimmy being a family made my heart feel warm and fuzzy inside. I felt a lot better then I did moments ago and I went downstairs and thanked him by kissing him with all of my love, feeling him melt in my arms. His hands were on my hips and he pulled me closer. I drowned in his sweet kisses, heat rising up in my body as his hands slowly went under my shirt, letting his rough hands touch my bare sides. I pulled away, letting our foreheads touch, my lips feeling swollen and my heart racing.
“I love you,” He whispered to me. I looked into his beautiful blue eyes and smiled brightly at him.
‘I love you too baby,”
The door bell rang and Johnny answered it, that’s when the room started to feel tense. He growled at Matt and moved aside and let Matt and Katie come inside as the aroma of dinner filled the air.
From the moment they came inside, I knew that this dinner was going to turn out for the worst.
Zacky’s P.O.V.
Seeing Jimmy and Deanna kissing actually made me feel really depressed. I knew that I was the father of the baby, I had to be and ever since she told Jimmy that she was pregnant, she ignored me. She never texted me back and I was busy with trying to help with my part in the album. We were going to be touring soon and I was excited about it, the only thing was that we all had one year of school left and we know our parents wouldn’t let us drop out but I guess everything would fall into place about all of this.
When Matt and Katie came inside, Johnny looked really upset but Matt looked really happy which made the house fill with anger. Mrs. Seward called everyone inside for dinner. The parents all sat around the table, the kids just standing there waiting for Mr. Seward to cut the turkey. Deanna prayed over the meal, thanking God for all of her friends, for her boyfriend and for the baby that I help create but did she mention that, no. I felt my heart break, she said amen and we all were able to get our food and go into the living room and sit down.
“What’s your problem?” Johnny asked after everyone was getting settled. Deanna looked to Katie and to her brother and she looked over to Jimmy. They knew something, why was it just them? Brian and I were totally clueless and it was making me upset.
“What are you talking about?” Katie asked carefully to Johnny. He glared at her.
“You know what I mean,” He said and looked at Matt and then back at Katie.
“Johnny I-”
“Am I nothing to you?” Johnny asked angrily to her, “I thought I gave you everything a son-”
‘She’s dead,” Katie suddenly blurted out. Deanna buried her head into Jimmy’s chest and he held her, those two just being in their own world and I looked at Johnny who was looking at her with shock. Brian and I exchanged looks and I felt myself frown. I really liked Kathleen, she made Johnny feel really happy and she was a really good person to be around, except for Deanna and Jimmy, she hated them and I really didn’t know why.
“What?” Johnny whispered looking at Katie who looked at him in tears. Matt held her hand as she told him the heart breaking truth, “I’m so sorry,” She whispered, “I … I just…”
“You…” Johnny was in tears, lost for words looking confused and cold, lonely. She ripped his heart out and shoved it down his throat. I was shocked at this.
“You…’ I swore at Katie and stood, “I can’t believe you would do something like this to him,” I growled to her, I didn’t even touch my food. I didn’t want to be here. My friend was dead and my brother was heart broken. I came to him, telling him that I would be in my car. I left out of the house with my parents wondering what I was doing and I never answered.
Johnny, Brian and I went to the park and drank, just being together and helping Johnny through this. Katie broke this man’s heart and he wasn’t going to be the same. He had a family, he thought she was the one and they she came back to be with him forever. He was lied to and it was going to take a long time to recover from this.
This was Johnny’s nightmare before Christmas and nothing was going to change that.
