Listen to the lyrics of the song! It impacts this chapter! Hope you enjoy this chapter! I put a lot of time into it!
I've been in my apartment for the past couple weeks crying and lying. One day I was sitting on the couch watching Pretty Little Liars. Then all my friends burst through the door, Emma in lead of them all, and her looking the most angry.
She looked right to left until her eyes landed on me. "All right get up." She placed her hands on her hips. I just snuggled into the blanket even more. "You heard me." I groaned and got up to only fall back on the couch.
All my friends sat around me and I was confused. "River, this is an intervention." I looked at them. Jason, Em, Alex, Luke, and even Anna, but she was on Jason's phone through FaceTime. But the one I hated to see most was Finn. We locked eyes and I got a look at him.
He looked worse than I imagined. I quickly turned my head to Emma and started crying. She looked surprised at first but then hugged me. "Can we talk alone me and you, and Anna?" I looked up, my eyes drowning themselves with tears.
I stood up and wrapped the blanket around me. Em put her arm around me and the other holding the phone. We got to my room and I locked the door.
I turned to Em and cried. "Shh it's ok. What happened? You've been depressed for a couple days and ignoring us." I say down next to her and mumbled something under my breath. "What? Speak up." I took a breath and looked her in the eyes.
"I slept with Finn." She looked at me and hugged me.
"That explains why he's been so down and you have too. I just thought you had a fight with him." I shook my head as Em patted my back.
"Don't worry it'll be okay." Anna corresponded through the screen. I gave her a small smile.
"So then why are you so upset about it?" Em looked at me. I couldn't look her in the eyes. "No...you really think- no." She hugged me tighter this time.
"Oh Riv!" Anna exclaimed, her on the verge of tears.
"I mean- I don't know yet, but I just hope not. Oh god, what am I going to do if I am?" I started crying. "I'm not prepared to be a mother, or take care of a person- I can hardly take care of myself!" I cried again.
"Well, are you late?" Anna asked the most obvious question. I nodded my head in shame. Em stood up and we looked at her with confusion.
"I'm going out to grab a test." I nodded and thanked her as she left. It was then just me and Anna in the room.
"So how's Yale?" I asked trying to change the mood.
"It's pretty good." Her phone then beeped. "I'm so sorry River but I have to go. It's time for one of my summer classes." I nodded.
"It's ok, go get your education my little snowman." She groaned at her nickname and ended the call. I fell on my bed, tears rolling down my cheek.
What am I going to do if it's positive? I can barely take care of myself! I'd have to move back home. Would mom disown me? I would never get to go to college. Would Finn even help out? What if he doesn't even want the baby?
My thoughts were interrupted by my room door creaking open. I looked and it was Jason. I gave him a sad smile. "Hey." I said as he walked in.
"Hey. Em told me what happened." I started crying again and he looked shocked. I had never cried in front of any of my friends before, so it was normal for him to be shocked.
"Why does ever bad thing happen to me?" I shook my head as he held me in a hug.
"Don't worry I'm positive- I mean sure it'll be negative." I giggled at his mistake. Em burst through the door panting. I raised an eyebrow at her.
