Luke and Georgias house

"What do I do, mate? She just like left!" Jai freaked out over the phone.

"Just calm down, I'll have Georgia talk to her." Luke said.

Georgia walked by Luke to get her shirt. "No you won't."

"Tell Georgia she will talk to Liv." Jai said.

"You heard him." Luke said since Jai was on speaker.

"No!" Georgia said finishing putting on her shirt.

"I'll call you back, Jai." Luke said and hung up.

"Georgia!" Luke scolded. "Why won't you do something as simple as talk to her about it?"

"Because I don't want to get in the middle of their drama, Luke! Plus, if they just let this be and take some time away from each other then maybe their relationship will work better because both of them have had time to think things through."

"Try telling Jai that." He said.

"Luke! I am NOT getting in the middle of it! End of conversation!" She said grabbing her jacket and walking out of their bedroom.

Luke followed after her. "Where are you going?"

"I have friends, you know?" She said.

"You don't have to be a cunt about it, alright! It was just a fucking question!" He said.

"I'm just not in the brightest mood, alright." She said.

"Tell me what's going on, please!" Luke said pulling her into a hug. She pushed away.

"Look Luke, I just need to be alone for a few hours." She said.

"I thought you were going to a friends?" Luke asked.

She walked to the door and tried to calm down. She gripped the door handle and stood there for a couple seconds. She let go and turned around taking a deep breath.

"I lost my job..." She said not making eye contact.

"How? When?" Luke said. "Is that why you're acting this way? Because you lost your job?"

"Yes, Luke! Now we have no way to pay for this house or for food or petrol!" She freaked out.

"It's not a big deal, Georgia." Luke said trying to calm her down.

She looked up at Luke with a few tears streaming down her face. "How the fuck am I supposed to support us? We won't have a house, no food, we won't have anything."

"It'll be alright, I'll just ask my Mum for a bit of money to get us by." Luke said.

"No, you don't understand! My Father is all about responsibility, if I don't have anything under control I'll have to move back home. You know that." She said.

"I'll get a job." Luke said.

Georgia laughed in between tears. "Yeah, right. You'll get a job." She laughed again. A sarcastic laugh.

"I can! I will get a job!" He said.

"Luke you didn't even finish high school, the best you'll be able to do is maybe McDonalds! But that won't even pay for half the expenses!" She said.

"Two jobs. I'll get two jobs." He said.

"Yeah, okay. Well I'm going to go look for a job while you figure that out." She said and walked back to the door. "Bye, love you."

"Yeah, love you too." He mumbled.

James and Victorias apartment

Since James was at work, Victoria ran to the store to pick up a few items. To be exact, a pregnancy test.

Once in the isle, she couldn't decide which one to get. She was so worried and couldn't think straight. She should've gotten her period two weeks ago. She grabbed a few from the shelf and put them in the basket.

She rushed to pay for them and get home.

Only when she got home, she noticed James car. She started to freak out, she shoved all the pregnancy tests in her handbag and tried to calm down before she got inside. She ran up the stairs to their apartment and ran inside. She closed the door and ran to the washroom.

"Is everything alright, Tori?" James shouted from the kitchen.

"Yeah everything's fine!" She said dumping out everything in her handbag onto the tile floor.

"Are you sure? You ran in here pretty fast." James said walking up the washroom door. She looked at the handle to make sure she locked it - she did.

"I just really really have to pee." She said picking up all the pregnancy tests and put them on the counter. She opened up the first one and read the box.

'Just pee on the stick, Victoria, that's all you have to do.' She thought in her head over and over.

"Aren't you even curious as to why I got off early?" James asked as he was still standing against the door.

"Fuck!" She mumbled. "Yeah what's going on?"

"I wanted to spend today with my girl and take her out to an early dinner." James said.

"That'd be great! But I'm kinda busy right now." She said freaking out. She finished peeing on the stick and set it on the counter and read the box. The box said let it sit for forty-five minutes to an hour. Being impatient as Victoria was, she took the other tests.

"James, could you run to the store and pick up some milk?" Victoria said to James.

"We don't need any milk, though." James said.

"I heard they're having a sale on the milk, PLEASE just go and get some more milk!" She said. This was her best excuse to get James out of the house so he wouldn't be suspicious of her being in the washroom for so long.

"Alright." James said. "But be ready by like four-thirty to five, okay?"

"Okay James!" She said trying to not freak out at the thought of being pregnant.

James finally left and she sighed in relief. She was not ready for a child yet. These tests just need to hurry up and make the little lines show up!

About an hour past, James was still gone. Victoria said it was the store on the other side of town.

She looked at the test shakily; two of the tests had positives, and the other two had negatives.

"Can't you just give me a straight fucking answer?" She yelled at the tests: "What the fuck am I going to do?" She yelled again.
