If it were just that pressure, she'd show signs of it outside that sequence of events. Instead, she went from everything's fine, to suddenly absent, to on the rooftop, and then after the reset she....didn't want to spend as much time alone with sensei anymore.I'm not sure about that, I think it was more cracking under the pressure of her reputation at school and the expectations that come with it and her position in class. Those can cause an extreme amount of pressure on a girl her age and people her age don't necessarily know how to deal with that pressure. I don't think pregnancy was involved or there would have been more signs pointing to it, but even without pregnancy, she was and still is under an immense amount of pressure for a girl her age.
It wasn't spelled out, but when you re-evaluate the sequence of events with the new context provided by Ayane, it's implied. Remember, Makoto understands who Sensei is in a way that naive Ayane does not. She knows he wouldn't be supportive, so she didn't bother saying anything. If anything, that understanding of his nature would actually make it worse for her. Ayane had the hope that this would inspire Sensei to become who she wants him to be. Makoto knows better.
