Chapter 4

“uhhhhhhhhh” I heard a deep-ish voice groan out. I quickly jumped up and remembered that Tonie was in my bed. TONIE WAS IN MY BED. Oh fuck. His eyes snapped open and we both just starred at each other for a while. Then Tonie shook his head and asked “did we…uh…you know…”

“NO…NEVER…NO”

“Okay, ouch all you had to say was ‘no’” Tonie said getting up out of my bed “where’s my shirt?” I picked it up and tossed it to him. He tugged it over his head and before he left he said “tell my bro to text me later”

“kk”

“Uh…later” He said awkwardly. I awkwardly waved and banged my head against my hand. Great. The one day my cute crush is in my room and I let him go…like that. Wonderful. I bet Ruth and Fraido are waking up together all cuddled in each other…all in love. I sighed out hard and decided to take a nice warm shower.

Today I decided to straighten my hair. I pulled on a pink and black long sleeve shirt that had lace on it, a black ruffled short skirt and ankle high black boots. I put on a thin line of black eyeliner and a little bit of mascara. A bit of lips gloss finished the look and I planned on getting out of the house today.

The deal was my sister and her boyfriend cleaned up…since they threw the party. We made sure the maids didn’t help at all with that. Sometimes I helped clean up…but not today. I texted Ruth saying “Went out. Text me later” I grabbed my keys and headed outside. It was a nice warm day and a really sunny one. It was almost the middle of September yet it seemed like summer didn’t want to leave.

I begged summer to stay and it may have listened this time. I walked out to the garage and got into my car. It was an even 1:00pm and the wind blew through my hair cooling me deeply. I had my shades on and I could see cute boys watching me drive by. Everyone in this town knew who the Chambers were.

We were legendary. I mean my mother and father were. Their love was golden. It was one of those relationships that started when they were kids through middle school, high school…and even University. They were a Romeo and Juliet that lasted years. When they got divorced I heard most of the town’s people sided with my mother. They believed that my father was too much ‘eye candy’ for middle aged women.

Tuesday was the day that Ruth and I visited our father every week. It also meant that next weekend we’d be spending it at his house. He spared no expense as did our mother. So it’s not too much of a switch. When I arrived at the mall I parked my car and locked the doors. Then I walked inside the nicely air conditioned building.

Boy stopped and stared and I enjoyed being like Ruth for a little while. I walked into a clothing store where my friend Hatty worked. She was edging on to being 6ft tall and weighing about 95lbs. She had nice long curly red; it almost reminded me of the girl in the movie ‘Brave’.

Her bright blue eyes glanced up at me and said “hey Mikka!”

“Hey Hatty!” I screamed out like I hadn’t seen her in ages…even though I was pretty sure I saw her at the party last night. We hugged tightly. This was our thing. Hugging, laughing, talking about cute boys, checking out cute boys and coming up with code names for cute boys.

Then we got into deep conversation about last night. We talked about Fraido’s shirtless dancing moment, Gene’s make-out sessions that happened all over the house with Peter and apparently someone saw Tonie go in my room. That was not supposed to happen. Now it’s gonna look like he fucked me.

I groaned out. Crap. I didn’t need this. Soon enough we started checking the mall for every cute guy who walked by the store. Just as I was leaving Hatty, I received an urgent text from Ruth. It read “FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! MIKKA! COME HOME! COME HOME! HOME!” I actually broke into a run and dashed out the mall and back into my car.

It was only 3:00pm and Ruth was spazzing out. I was practically speeding just to make it home as fast as possible. Once I parked the car in the garage I ran up the front steps and into the house. The house was clean by now and I think Fraido left. I went upstairs and bolted straight into Ruth’s room.

“WHAT!” I screamed out.

“I have a problem”

“I repeat WHAT!”

“My period…was supposed happen last month. But I just thought maybe I was having one of those weird monthly skips. Only it didn’t happen this month either…so I got…you the test

“And…”

“And it came back… positive”

“Positive good or positive…bad”

“…bad. I think I’m…pregnant” Ruth confessed. I stood there in shock. Frozen completely. How…why…who…well I knew it was Fraido…but still. I can’t believe my big sister was going to be pregnant. I looked up to her. And that one time they forgot to use a condom is going to ruin her.
