Campus Ruckus (2)

It took just a split second, and Thalia was unsure of what had happened. One minute Charles held her hand, and another minute, he was not. She had kept her head down and was not bothered by the ridiculous conversations going on around her.

She understood that her pregnancy would be met with mixed reactions by all, but she had decided not to care. It was rare in their society for any young girl to get pregnant outside of marriage. Even with an engagement in place, the person would still be met with questioning eyes, so she was prepared to face any and all that was to come her way.

However, what Thalia did not understand was how the whole school population knew of this. She knew that neither Flora nor her boss would leak it out, neither would Charles and she herself most definitely had not done so!
