I look at my alarm clock 6:20 I had five more minutes, I sigh and get up anyway. I was still in that sleepy mode when Fiona saw me and started to talk.

            “So we have that thing in science today!” she smiles. Ugh! I forgot we had a lab today, with chemicals.

            “Right I forgot,” I smile.

            “How can you forget?!  It’s what we’ve been looking forward to all week!” she smiles bouncing excitedly.

            “I’ll be more excited when it’s not 6:00 anymore!” I laugh. She nods and quickly puts on a t-shirt and a pair of jeans with red converse that match her red shirt. I go to my closet and grab a pair of jeans and an old white t-shirt. I slip them on and put on a pair of old black vans that I’ve had for a while now falling apart. Are science teacher told us to wear something old sense we were working with chemicals that might ruin are clothes. I walk into class to see Eve talking to the teacher.

            “Okay Eve you can go to your room and I’ll send Kayla to get you when we finish,” the teacher smiles. She nods and thanks him and leaves.

            “That’s weird Eve loves to do labs I wonder why she would leave for this one?” Fiona asks.

            “Maybe she doesn’t feel well,” I guess.

            “That’s a horrible guess, she is coming back when we’re done so I think she is fine,” Fiona says.

            “Yeah, good point on that one,” I smile. We all standby are stations with are partners, and who am I stuck with Chase! The teacher tells us to poor a tea-spoon of a blue liquid in, Chase does the first I do the second and back and forth. I look at what he is wearing.

            “Isn’t that shirt super expensive? I ask.

            “Yeah but I have a lot more,” he shrugs. I nod at him and turn back to the teacher who was telling us to poor in the last ingredient to make the mixture start to smoke like his. As the smoke starts the teacher then comes over to each station and tells us if we got an A or not and to get rid of the liquid.

            “Kayla can you please bring Eve back so we can take notes?” he asks.

            “Yeah sure I’ll go get her,” I nod. I walk down the hall towards the girl’s side. I knock on Eve’s door and wait.

            “Oh hey Kayla time for me to go back to class?” she smiles.

            “So why couldn’t you do the lab?” I question. She stops and stares at me. “What?”

            “Can you keep a secret?” she asks. I nod.

            “Of course you know that I can keep a secret,” I smile. She nods and gulps.

            “Okay but don’t tell anyone, please!” she starts, I nod.

            “I swear!” I smile. She smiles back and nods.

            “’Kay well I’m pregnant with James baby!” she says. I look at her.

            “How?” I ask. She shrugs.

            “It’s easy to get past the teachers who are supposed to watching us, but they don’t care,” she smiles.

            “Aw I’m so happy for you!” I cheer. She blushes.

            “Thanks,” she laughs. “I knew you would be supportive!”

            “Of course I would it’s a baby for cry’n out loud!” I smile.

            “Yeah James wants to keep it and when we leave for college so we can start a family of our own,” she laughs.

            “Oh good for you Eve!” I smile. We then continue down the hall towards class, when we walk in everyone stares at Eve confused except for James who smiles at her. We sit in our seats without another word. After we take notes on science I wasn’t really paying any attention the bell rings. What I love about labs is that they take all day and usually all the other classes are canceled until tomorrow. This was the greatest of all things ever! I get up and walk out of class with Eve and Fiona like always and we sit in our usual spot at the corner of the lunchroom by the windows.

            “OH MY GOSH! You want to know what sounds so good right now! Chocolate syrup, marshmallows, and pudding with whipped cream. Yum! Or pickles with sardines! That sounds so divine!” she says. Fiona looks at her as if she has gone loony and I just start to crack up. “Oh yeah! Fiona I’m pregnant so that’s why want this stuff but don’t tell anyone!”

            “Really are you getting an abortion?” Fiona asks.

            “No I don’t believe in abortion! Why would I do that! It’s my baby I will do what I want with it!” Eve growls.
