"Why won't you tell us what's wrong?" Noah asks. "I thought I broke you Bianca! You don't go down with just a small punch to the stomach."

"I just wasn't feeling good." Bianca shrugs.

"You can tell us though. We are all like a big fat family." Avary says.

"Oh my gosh I am going to be fat." Bianca whispers to me.

"You are!" I scream loudly and swing down from the top bunk.

"Wait, do you know what's wrong with Bianca." Noah says blocking my way from heading out the door.

"Maybe." I say. "Come on Bianca."

"Oh no, Harper!" Bianca screams.

"Yep." I smile wickedly and pull her to my apartment where my dad is sitting on the couch.

"Hey girls." My dad says slowly.

"Bianca knows how much of a father like figure you have been for her. And she knows how disappointed your going to be when she tells you this-" I'm cut off by Bianca.

"I'm pregnant, Four." She says with tears in her eyes.

"Oh Bianca." He says sadly. Bianca starts to cry and I've never seen her cry a lot. She doesn't do it barely ever. Dad pulls her into a hug and she just sobs into his shoulder. He stares at me over her shoulder with a pitied gaze.

    "Who's the father?" He says as she pulls back.

    "I don't think I can tell you that." Bianca whispers.

     "Okay. I respect that." He nods. "Are you ever going to tell him."

     "I can't do that." She says and shakes her head slightly. "He wouldn't want kids. It's not his thing."

"You can't hide this forever." I say. "Your gonna be a big fat pregnant lady. He's gonna notice."

"Thanks but I- I don't know I'll figure it all out in time but for now I don't want anyone to know anything."

"You can't go to training today!" I say as we walk down the hallway.

"I will. And your not going to try and stop me." Bianca snaps.

"Just don't get hurt." I plead.

"I won't. I won't." Bianca says as we walk into the training room. Scull had already finished writing the names when we walked in. I was against Bianca. "Your gonna kill me Harper!" Bianca turns to me but doesn't say it loud enough for anyone to hear. "This is bad. This is really bad!"

"This is great!" I say. "I can make sure not to hit your stomach or anything."

"Yeah I guess." She mutters.

"Bianca I think we need to talk." I hear Scull say to her.

"Uhh, I think I'm good." Bianca says stiffly.

"You can't just get hurt like that and expect your instructor to stand by why it happens!" He screams so now we have the attention of the other four initiates.

"Just leave me alone." Bianca says and walks away.

     "What did you do this time, Logan?" I ask with venom soaking every word to come out of my mouth. Personally I had no reason to be upset with him but if Bianca was, I was. And the other way around and that's how it's been for years.
