Hi. I am an 18 year guy that fell in love. Emilee and I started dating on Chirstmas Eve in 7th grade. I had just turned 13. she was 12. we went to all of the dances and parties as a couple. All of the other kids wanted to be like us. Flash forward to our 3 three anniversay. I was 16… she was 15..almost 16… On Sunday, December 24, 2006, We had sex for the first time. That day changed our lives forever.
Then the day after her 16th birthday party, January 13, she told me the two words i never wanted to hear… Im pregnant. We knew we loved each other and thought our parents would help us raise the baby. But that wasnt the case. We told all 4 of them together. they told us to go upstairs. we thought that they were talking about where we would live..
That wasnt the case, They told us that they had came to the decision that we were going to have an abortion. we got in a huge fight.. but sadly… by the end of the night, Emilee and I gave in to our parents. On February 12, 2007, Emilee, 7 weeks pregnant, me, and our parents killed our baby.
Emilee moved to her aunts house in California in March… she needed a break. During this time, I started to hate my parents for what they did to us.
When Emilee moved home in June, she was still mourning our baby. She said that she regretted that decision everyday. I felt the same way. Even though at the time we were angry and heartbroken… we knew we needed each other. So we got back together, and when we both had turned 17, we moved in together.
Now, here we are, I turned 18 on the 4th. Emilee is again pregnant with a little girl. She is 5-and-a-half months pregnant. We both are graduating at semester to start our family…. We are not on speaking terms with our parents.
THey know we are pregnant and have made the decision to stay away from us. We are getting married on Valentines day of 2009. And Aleigha Kate is due March 4, 2009.
It has been almost two years since we made the biggest mistake of listening to our parents. Not a day goes by that my fiance and I dont think of the child that we killed… our child. We havent decided if we are going to tell Aleigha about what we did yet. But we are going to love this girl… and never will we let her make the same mistakes as we have.
We also mourn our relationships we had with our parents. We loved them so much. We trusted them. They broke that trust.
They arent all to blame though… We made the ultimate decision to do what we did. Some people that know our story criticize us for starting our family so young. We dont care what anyone else thinks. We are doing everything to save this family that we are building.
