Don't Forget About Me

Chapter 22

The next few days go by pretty fast and all I can think about is how I can get a pregnancy test without Os noticing. I finally decided that I am going to get Sara to help me even though I don't really want anyone else to know she is the closest thing that I have to a family. “ Sara, can we go get lunch just us girls?” She looks at me from the chair she is sitting in by the pool, sort of questioning my motives but folds. “Of course we can, it would be good to get a break from all the testosterone anyway.” When I look over to Os who is in the pool talking with Octavious he sends me a soft smile. 

“Yes, that's exactly it.” Sara goes back to reading the book that she has and I lay back on the chair and close my eyes. “When did you want to go to Kels?” I open my eyes and try to think. “We could do lunch but I need to swing by the drug store real quick to grab something if that's ok?” I look at her hoping she doesn't ask why because I am not going to tell her the truth yet. “Ok, i'll go get ready then. Meet you out in the car in thirty?” Sara always takes a little longer to get ready unlike me who takes about ten minutes. 

“Yes, see you in a little bit.” knowing that it's going to be more like an hour I lay back and close my eyes for a few more minutes. “What were you ladies talking about?” I feel rough hands sliding down my arm and I open my eyes. I can't lie and say that I haven't been avoiding him to some extent these past couple days but I have. “Sara and I are going to have a girls lunch.” He looked at me with an odd look as if he knows something is up but doesn't question it. 

“Ok, are we going back to the club tonight before we have to fly out in the morning?” Shit, I forgot that he wanted to go to the club tonight. “Yea that should be good still, we won't be out all afternoon.” I turned to get up and he grabbed me by the waist and pulled me in.  “Are you feeling ok baby, you have been off since you were sick the other day?” I knew he sensed me being weird but I couldn't tell him, not yet. I swallowed the lump that was in my throat and looked into those scorching blue eyes of his. 

“I'm ok, I just still feel a little sick. Whatever I ate definitely took it out of me.” I put on a small smile and tip toe up to give him a kiss. I can tell he doesn't fully believe me but he's going to have to just deal with it right now. He responded to my kiss and took it a step further and put his tongue in my mouth. I can't believe I get wet just from him kissing me like it's the last thing he ever does. When he pulls away I let out a little pout that wasn't meant to be heard. “We can finish this off later baby, go get ready for your lunch date.” He kissed my forehead and let me go. As I went to walk away he smacked my ass and all I could do was turn and look at him. I swear that smile just makes my panties drop but I can't think of that now, I have more pressing matters. 

As I walked out to get in the car I still had to wait another five for Sara. When she finally comes running out she gets in. 

”I'm so sorry Kels I couldn't figure out what to wear then I couldn't find my makeup bag.” All I could do was laugh because Sara always knew how to make me laugh. “It's ok, where do you want to go for lunch?” She started to think but then looked at me. “Didnt you want to go to the drugstore for something?” With wide eyes I quickly nodded feeling that sick feeling again. I went to take a drink of water. “Are you ok Kels, do you want to go back home?” I shake my head as I swallow another drink. Then I blurt it out.

“I think I might be Pregnant.” When I turn to see her reaction she is frozen and extremely pale for her normally tan skin. I wait another minute and when I go to say something Sara talks first. “Are you sure? I mean Obisiouly I cant say that its not possible because of course your fucking Mr.Hottie but how? Was he not wrapping it Kels?” I look straight ahead and stare out of the window. “ Nope he wasn't and to be honest I wasn't even thinking about it when we were, you know. It wasn't even a thought and fuck Sara what am I going to do?” I feel the tears start to come to my eyes and I try my hardest to keep them in but it's no use if they have already started to fall. “It's ok Kels, we will figure this out. You haven't told him yet have you?” I shake my head because I couldn't talk. The tears are falling and I didnt want to make it worse. 

“Ok, it's ok we will go get a test because maybe you're not. We don't even know for sure yet.” We pull into a parking lot of a local drug store and just sit there. I start to wipe my face and try to calm down. When we start to go in we walk towards the aisle that has all these pregnancy tests and oh look condoms right near them. The irony is just sitting right there in front of me like Oh hey get condoms or you will need the thing next door. Shaking my head I have no idea which one to grab so I just stare. “Take this one, they are the best and more accurate.” I looked at Sara wondering how she would know because out of all the years that we have known each other I don't remember her having a scare like this. 

“How do you know which ones are the best?” She looks down then back to me. “I had a situation when I was in highschool and long story short I needed to verify that I wasn't pregnant but that's a story for another time.” I never knew that she went through something like that and am hurt that she has never told me but it was before my time with her so I can understand. We grab the two packs and head to the register to check out. When we get there I feel so embarrassed and when the lady says the amount I owe I kind of freeze a second. “I got it Kels.” Sara goes and puts in her card to pay and I feel bad all over again. 

“You didn't need to do that.” As we are walking out of the door she turns to me and grabs my face. “I am here for you for whatever you want to do, if you are pregnant. Whether it's keeping the kid or getting an abortion. I will be here with you every step of the way I promise.” The tears start to fall again because I'm scared as shit. “Thank you Sara, that really means alot to me but I guess we should see if this thing is really a thing.” She lets go of my face and starts to head towards the car. 

“Let's go to the mall and we can do it in the bathroom so we don't have to do it at the house?” Sara is so smart of course she would come up with a plan already. We drive down the street and take a few more turns then arrive at the Mall. When we walk into the one entrance we both look around for the bathroom. We start to walk through the mall and keep an eye out for a sign. We walked by the sexy lingerie store that we were at the other day and it makes me sad. I grab Sara’s arm and lean on her. 

“I'm scared to tell him if I am.” She leans her head on mine and holds me tight. All of a sudden she points up and I see the sign for the bathroom. We head down the long hall and see that there is a family room next to the ladies and we run inside and lock the door. Sara gets right to opening the package and taking the two tests out. I feel so sick that I am about to do this. I still cant believe that I was so stupid to do something like sleep with some guy and not be protected. But on the other side I would not change anything that has happened these past few months with Os. 

I love him. Sara gives me one of the tests and tells me that all I have to do is pee on it but make sure that I don't pee all the way so that I can pee on the other one too. I take the test and look at it and just stand there. “It's ok Kels, just go over and pee and we will find out if you are or not.” I snap out of it and go over to the toilet and just do it. Sara tells me that we have to wait fifteen minutes, which seems like an eternity. Finally she looks at me. “Time is up, are you ready?” I'm not but I don't really have a choice do I? I walk over to the sink and grab the first one and see the two pink lines and I can't do anything else other than fall to the floor. I'm crying uncontrollably and I don't know what to do to make it stop. I'm pregnant with Os's baby. His father already wants me dead now he's going to want me dead even more. I start to take deep breaths because that's the only thing that I can think to do now. 

“It's ok we will get through this Kelsey.” Sara is rubbing my head. “I want to keep it Sara.” I surprised myself just as much as it surprised her. “If that is what you want to do Kels but you are going to have to tell Os, you know that right?” I turn and look at her. I know that this is going to be hard and I have no idea how I am going to get through this but I will figure it out.
