*Next Day, Britney's POV*

Matthew and I got back from California  last night and it's been weird being home again. My dad was at work so it was just me and my mom. We did this thing where we watched Freaky Friday whenever she was home. We popped popcorn, had chocolate, and made root beer floats.

Typically girls night. It was pretty relaxing, my mom even made us this stuff for a facial. Brown sugar, honey, and coconut oil, it works like heaven. My face felt like silk. I loved that my mom and I were getting closer now that she's been home more.

We watched the movie while she braided my hair, she always did this stuff when I was little. I'm kind of glad that something's never change. It was comforting. I loved my life right now.

"How was your trip??" My mom asks.

I placed popcorn in my mouth, "It was pretty good, he set up this really romantic date on the beach, then he took me to Disney World." I smiled.

My mom grinned, "You're leaving a lot of things out, I can tell."

I pursed my lips, "Mom, I don't think you want to hear everything."

"You guys better be using protection." She said smacking my shoulder. She was smiling but I knew she was serious.

That's also when I realized we hadn't. Not even from day one. I felt the blood from my face drain from my face. I had a lump in my throat. Oh god, everyone's going to kill me. Mom, Dad, Matthew...Dad.

Thanks Obama.

I smiled at my mom, "Duh, Mom. I'll be right back."

I ran upstairs to my room and slammed my door. I grabbed my cell phone of off my nightstand hurriedly, accidentally pulling the charger out of the wall. I emergency dialed Taylor, my hands were shaking so bad.

"Come on, answerrr.." I say, pacing back and forth.

By the fourth ring she answered, "Hello?"

"Hey, I'm in trouble." I said, my heart was racing, my hands were sweating, I thought I was going to die right there.

She was quiet for a moment then spoke up, "Babes, what's wrong?"

"My mom mentioned something about Matthew and I using protection and I just realized that we've never used it.."

She was dead quiet. I checked my phone making sure she didn't hang up, "Never? Britney, you're insane. You've never never used protection? Are you on birth control??"

"No.." I said quietly.

"Shit..Brit. I hope everything's okay.."

I laid back on my bed, feeling tears filling my eyes, "I do too.."

We talked until she fell asleep, when I realized I sat up, "Goodnight babes, love you." Then I hung up and plugged my phone back and headed down stairs.

I sat next to my mom on the couch. She grinned and threw popcorn at me, "What was that all about? I was beginning to think you were never coming back down."

I grinned, "I had to tell Taylor something."

She sipped her root beer float, "That's cool, I'm glad you finally have a girl friend to gossip with."

"I am too.." I pursed my lips anxiously.

"Everything okay??"

I swallowed hard trying not to cry, because I wasn't even sure if I was pregnant or not so I was totally overreacting, "Yeah, I'm fine."
