LanaI woke up with an headache. It's been happening lately. I was way too stressed out, I still had that damn pregnancy test. I just decided to take it since it has been about a week. It was a two pack, so I can take another later on to be sure. My clock read 6:50 a.m. and I sat up, rubbing my eyes. I've been waking up lately at odd times, knowing that it's a struggle to go back to sleep immediately. As I was going to the bathroom, my phone rang and it was Reese, my best friend. She was British, olive skin tone with red natural hair.
"Hey Lana."
"Hey Reese's."
"So how are you, love? Are you ill?"
"A little tired. Why are you calling me so early in the morning?"
"Because you haven't called me since Roman's party. Where the hell have you been? What happened to you and Will?"
"Huh? Nothing's wrong, everything's great."
"Really? Because you sound a little leepy."
"No we're good... e-"
I looked at my window, there was a note on it. The fuck?
"Solana?"
"Yea, everything's good, I-I'll call later, love you." I hung up, opening my window and snatching the note. "The hellll???" I opened it and it read:
' You need to know who's watching behind doors, I mean closet doors. I don't see how you can live with the thought of you being pregnant with him, and YOU KNOW WHO I'M TALKING ABOUT. Watch out, bitch. '
I furrowed my eyes, shaking my head. These threats. There's been threats towards me ever since that fatal night. Ever since we fucked. I put the note back in my purse and I shut my window. I need to chill, nothing's happening. I decided to take the test, shivering but it came out to be negative with deep magenta line. Whew, thank God, I was scared for it to be a faint line or a plus.
I decided to jog this off, I mean I have to after my coach got upset at me after I told her I wasn't feeling well for practice. She assumed I was lying until I vomited again.
'Maybe you lay off the booze, you're a fucking athlete! Get it together.' She screamed at me once she saw me on the stands, watching Will's practice. Some of my teammates laughed at her outburst, but quietly because she's crazy.
I tried to sneak being at the practice, but I guess she just felt my spirit as I am never late to practice. She almost placed me on suspension off of her assumption, which was true... but she didn't know that. I could have easily had the flu because it's been going around. I jogged all the way towards the Cedar Park's forest trail and saw Serenity speed walking towards her car. She glanced at me and rolled her eyes. I returned the favor and continued to run into the front side of the jogging trail in the woods. The note keeps recurring back in my head. Pregnant? Wow, just imagine that, I'll be in much more deeper shit than I'm in now. My mother will kill me. She was already on my case with me coming home after curfew.
I'm listening to African music, trying to get back my flow and then my beau calls. I pressed ignore and went back to running, he calls again. I pressed ignore once again annnnd he called again. I really don't feel like talking to him, even being around him. I feel uncomfortable and dirty. I'll end up telling him what happened.
What happened between me and Roman cannot be heard of. I can't, I can't tell him... I can't even tell Reese's. She is already suspecting things are strange all of the sudden.
I slowed down, trying to catch my pace and I see Roman running towards me. Glanced a little at him, but was acting like I didn't see at him. What a fucking coincidence, I mean like really, what a great way to start my day. He didn't have a shirt on, which can easily make this more awkward. He slowed down his current pace once he saw me. Great.
