Loving Lucy (On hold)

Prologue

This is my first attempt at a book please vote and let me know what you think. I know this chapter is a little slow but I had to let you know why the father isn't present in their lives because he will have to be checked out later when Lucy gets sick. Criticism is welcome as long as it is not mean. Lol.

Prologue

Melanie's POV

I've been going to Lousiana Tech  for the last three years. I've wanted to get my college degree in nursing since I was  five and my best friend Mick Jackson got his first boo boo falling off his bike. My parents and I live about thirty minutes away in West Monroe LA. I thought I had the best boyfriend who loved me and wanted to marry me once we graduated. Payton Moore was so handsome with his dark brown hair and his brown eyes that would make anyone melt. We've been together for the past year and a half.   He was going to Harvard in two years and we'd planned on getting an apartment  together until he graduated. It was all mapped out or so we thought. 

Payton and I was going to his parents lake house for spring break. As I woke up for class this morning I felt so sick. I quickly packed my things for the lake and sat them by the door. I ate some crackers and drank some sprite thinking that I had a bug. I quickly left a note for my best friend Anna Smith who graduated with me at West Monroe High.

Dear Anna,  

I'll be back at the apt. at 1:00. I feel so sick today I think I may have a bug. I hope you don't get it. I hope I will see you before you leave today but if I don't I really hope you have a great time at home. Love ya, Melanie

I grabbed my books and ran out the door for class. I was so excited to be alone with Payton that I seriously didn't know if I would be able to concentrate on AP class. As I pulled into the lot I noticed that his car wasn't there and he had a class this morning before me. I hope he don't have my bug.  

I tried to listen to Professor Davis but it was almost like hearing the teacher on Charlie Brown. I couldn't sit here any longer I jumped out of my seat an ran to the closest restroom. I ran into a couple of innocent students and knocked a teacher down getting there but I made it just in time to empty the contents of my breakfast. I hate throwing up more than anything and this was the worst I've ever felt. I finally finished, washed my face and headed back to get my books from AP class.

I guess I missed hearing the bell because the class was now empty and Professor Davis was sitting at his desk looking and his test papers. As I walked into the room which by the was was spinning. Professor Davis looked up at me with a conserned look on his face.

"Ms. Simpson, Are you alright you look so pale? Do you need go to the clinic?" He was walking up to me and I felt a blackness swallow me and the next thing I remember was laying on a hard bed in this tan room with cabinets on one wall.

"Where am I?" I said weakly to the short chuby blonde lady walking up to me with a conserned look on her face.  

"You are in the school health clinic. I'm Dr. Dixon. You have been unconscious for over five minutes. Have you ever passed out before?" She asked checking my blood pressure. 

"NO ma'me but I woke feeling sick and squeamish this morning. I thought It was a bug but I don't have any other symptoms like fever or aches." I sat quietly as she listened to my heart beat, check my temperature and looked in my throat.

"Is there a chance you might be pregnant?" she asked.

" No ma'me I've been on the pill for over six months. My cycles have been as regular as clockwork. I should be having a period next week." I said. I know she has to ask these things but boy it is so embarrassing talking about these things with strangers.
