I started puking. The taste was too unbearable so I puked some more. It felt like I was chocking, my forehead was sweaty, and I was trembling. God, I felt terrible. I wanted to stay in, to avoid going to school, which the thought of actually going only made me want to puke all over again. I went back to bed, crawling into my covers, I glanced at the clock, 6:29 A.M. I groaned and turned the other way around.

"Please, just take me out of my misery" I muttered under my breath. I heard my door creaking, and I didn't needed to look to know it was my mom.

"Sweetie? Are you alright?" she asked, her voice full of concern. I groaned once again as a reply. She didn't turn on the lights, so the room was dark. She started walking towards my bed, then sat on the edge. "If you feel like you can't go to school, then don't. . .I understand. Believe me, I was the same way when I was pregnant with your brother"

I faced her, with some tears on my face. I sat up straight and rubbed at my wet eyes. "Oh, baby" she said and hugged me. "Why are you crying?"

"I don't know, I just feel so emotional, and-and I feel so bad at the same time. It sucks" I said angrily. My mom shushed me, and rubbed at my back soothingly.

"It's alright, just rest, my little angel. . ." she said, and I couldn't help but smiling, it's been so long since she had called me that, it felt so right and sweet to hear her say that.

"Later, we have to talk, but for now. . .Just sleep. I'll call to your school, alright?"

I nodded slowly and rested my head back on the pillow, letting the sleep consume me completely.

"Gwen?" I heard someone calling me. I groaned and rolled to the other side. My stomach had stopped hurting, but now I had a major headache. "Gwen, wake the eff up!" Yup, its Danny. . .She's the only one that would wake me up like that. My parents would just place a single kiss on top of my head, my brother would just shake me until I open my eyes, which was more effective if I'm honest. I admit I'm kind of a heavy sleeper. There could be an earthquake and I would still be under my covers, hugging my pillow. I opened one eye and glanced at her.

"What?" I asked, my voice hoarse. I saw her folding her arms across her chest. I glanced at my clock on top of my nightstand. 10:15 A.M. "Why aren't you at school?" I asked.

"You missed it, G! We had to leave early, there was sort of an explosion in the lab, and there was gas everywhere. . .We had to evacuate. It was pretty awesome"

"Why would I want to witness the fact that I could've died of poisoning gas?" I asked.

"Perhaps. But you know that in that school, nothing interesting ever happens, you know?" she chuckled slightly.

"I am indeed pregnant, and I haven't seen a line full of pregnant girls in that school, so I believe something unique and interesting happened already, right?"

"You're right, you are unique" she said and took a strand of my hair out of my face. "Anyhow, I called your house since you're obviously not in condition to answer your phone. So when I called, your mom told me you were sick as hell--obviously not using those words--so, as the amazing friend that I am, I brought chocolate ice cream and chick flicks, your favorite combination"

"Thanks, but I don't think--"

"You're eating a bowl full of very cheap ice cream and watch some cheesy movies with me, no excuses. Even if you're on the edge of dying, I want to spend some time with my bestie" she said. I giggled and took the covers off of my body. I looked up at her, and hugged her slowly. She's my best friend, and I love her.
