"So, what? What do I do again?" I mutter as me and mom stand side by side in my bathroom. 

Pregnancy tests out on the side. Our eyes peering down at them. 

"Pee in this cup, then we will dunk the tests into it and leave them for 5 minutes then check them." Mom says back, her hand coming into contact with my back. 

"Can you like, I don't know, stand outside while I at least pee?" I face mom as she gives me a confused look and then nods towards the door and walks out. 

I walk to the toilet and get started. 

I just can't focus on anything right now.

I feel like I can hear mom breathing outside of my bathroom door.

Once I'm done with my business, I open the door and mom comes rushing in as I pick up the 3 pregnancy tests and dunk them into the cup. We wait a few seconds and take them back out.

I walk out of the bathroom and straight to my bed and get under my covers. Mom cautiously walks over to me and takes a seat next to me and lowers her hand to run through my hair.

"You know whatever happens, I'm here bug. And if they are positive then I'll be by your side with whatever you choose to do, do you hear me?" Mom speaks into the space between us as I take a deep breath and close my eyes.

I'm 15 and I could be pregnant.

I'm 15 and I had sex and then I was raped.

I'm 15 and I'm already going through so much and I think being pregnant will send me over the edge.

I can't be pregnant.

Not only will it ruin my life, it will ruin moms.

Everything she has worked so hard for, as soon as they find out she has a 15 year old pregnant daughter, well that's it. It's over.

I can't even look after myself let alone a baby.

I want all of this to be over.

I want what happened to me to be gone and forgotten about. But I guess life has other plans and just loves to fuck me up.

Why me?

"Bug?" Mom mutters, breaking me from my thoughts. My eyes quickly opening and making contact with her own.

"The timer went off..." She mutters again.

"Can...can we just wait a few more minutes? Because as soon as we go in that bathroom everything can change and I just want to stay here right now, with you where I'm not a pregnant teen, I'm just your daughter who is struggling, please" I beg, mom nods her head and pulls me into her arms.

"We can stay here as long as you like, y/n" Mom mumbles into my head before placing a kiss on top of it.

I need to calm down, I can already feel my breathing speeding up and I need to stay calm before I lose it.

Maybe I should just get it out of the way with.

I pull myself out of moms arms and launch myself towards the bathroom, I manage to lock the door behind me before she can even get off the bed.

I stare at the tests lined on the side as I feel my throat start to close. I can feel the tears already building up in my eyes as I finally take a step towards the tests and turn them over.

Scarlett's POV

I can only imagine what is going through her head right now. Jesus, finding out you're pregnant when you're actually an adult is overwhelming but finding out when you're 15? I can't imagine that.
