Our Secret Love Story

Chapter sixteen

Max and Willow have been back at the campground for a little over six weeks. Kyle and Phoenix still hang out when they have time, but they decided to stay friends. Max and Kyle talk and are trying to be friends for Phoenix. Things went back to normal for everyone well......kinda. Drugs are a pretty regularly thing for everyone now and it's only getting worse.

Max's POV

It's like 5 pm and Phoenix is still in bed, she doesn't feel very good so I'm kinda taking care of her. I grabbed the dink I fixed for her and walked into the bedroom handing it to her. She sat up and took it from me. She lifted her free hand up to her face, she put her hand over her eyes resting it on her fourhead. She groned, I don't know why I feel so bad! she said. I pulled back the covers and slid in the bed next to her. My head hurts she whined putting her head in my lap. I leaned down and kissed her fourhead, all better? I asked softly. She looked up at me and smiled, she lifted her self uo to meet my lips I gently kissed her back. She rested her head back on my lap, I slowly and gently ran my fingers through her hair.

Once Phoenix was asleep I got out of the bed to go watch tv on the couch.

Phoenix's POV

I woke up a few minutes ago. I don't even remember falling asleep, but I dont feel like moving so I'm just laying here stareing at a wall. I think I know why I'm sick and I'm scared that I'm going to be right... I think I might be pregnant, but I'm not sure yet. I told Willow about it yesterday, and she said that she will pick up some tests for me when her and Ronnie go shopping. I don't want to tell Max yet, because I'm not even sure if I am pregnant and I'm not even sure if it's his. I don't want to bring up the thing with Johnnie again, but he could be the dad if it turns out I am pregnant, I mean things are going back to normal and we all are trying to forget about all that stuff! Argh! I dont know what to do I sighed.

I rolled over to the edge of the bed and sat up. I stared at the wall for a moment before getting up, so I wont get dizzy, and I walked to the living room part where Max was.

Hey babe feeling any better? he asked. I forsed a smile, yea a little I said. I sat down next to him on the couch, he wrapped his arm around me pulling me closer to him.

A few minutes later my phone went off. I dug around in my pocket to find it, it was Willow, I answered it.

Hey I said, hey she said back. Ronnie doesn't want to go to the store with me do you wanna go? She asked. Sure I said. I don't feel like going, but I know if someone doesn't go with her to a store she will end up buying a bunch of unnecessary things. Okay be ready in ten she said. I will I said hanging up.

I looked at Max, I'm about to go to the store with Willow I told him as I got up to go get changed. I put on a pair of dark denim jeans with my favorite zebra print crop top and my vans. I walked out and sat down again, to wait for the text from Willow telling me she's here.

Once I got that text I told Max that I'll be back in a little bit, he gave me a kiss before I got up to leave. I saw Willow waiting for me in her car, I hopped in the passenger seat.

Hey how you feeling Phoenix? she asked me. Fine I guess, I said biting my lip.

I'm super nervous, I mean if I am pregnant of course I'm going to keep the baby even if I dont know who the father is. I feel like I'm would be a horrible mother. I am only 16 and I know I have lots of problems.

We went to a store close by the campground. We got food, my tests and Willow bought condoms. Probally because she now realizes that theres always a chance you can get pregnant, and I'm hopeing I'm not.

When we got back to my camper we walked in and noticed Max wasn't there.

He's probably with Ronnie I told Willow.

Perfect! she said excited, go take your text she said shoveing me towards the bathroom.

I walked in and squeezed the bag I was holding with the pregnancy test and condoms. I pulled out the tests and sat the bag down I opend the box and took one out, I sat the box down and walked to the toilet. I took a deep breath and well you know, I peed on it. Once I was done, I walked out to Willow.

Wellll she said egerly. I exhaled deeply, the box says you have to wait a few minutes for the results. She sighed well how long? she asked. Only like a minute or two I said.

Around a minute later Willow got up.

I can't wait anymore! she said walking in the bathroom. NO! I yelled at her but she didn't listen. She walked back out, I look at her with a scared expression.

Well she paused, I guess I'M GOING TO BE A AUNT!! she yelled excited. I didn't know how to react. I just need to see for my self. I pushed past her to look, it was positive. I have to make sure, so I took a few more. Done? Willow asked when I had peed on my third stick. Yea, I said weakly. I guess, I'm going to be a mom I said shakeing.

How am I going to tell Max!? I don't even know if he's the dad! This is going to be a hell of a nine months...
