Club Fucked Up

Life as We Knew It

(Veronica's perspective)

October 1, 1989
7:52 a.m.
   It's been a few days since I told JD about the baby and it really seems like things are good, I think. I can't really tell he's been super gentle and freaking out about my health 24/7. Which is honestly annoying that he's always on my tail but I'm glad he's trying I guess.
   "I wanna live with you, even when we're ghosts, 'cause you were always there for me when I needed you the most."He sings in his soft beautiful voice as he gives the most loving smile that could light up the sky.
   God damnit I wish he didn't have to see me like this, at my worst. I always want to be pretty for him and be someone he could be proud of, but now that will never happen because before long I'll be know as the school slut.
   "Ronnie, love" He says, interrupting his quiet hum of the chorus.
   "Hmm?" I answer tilting my head up towards his, as I do so a giant wave of nausea rushes over me like water spewing out of a freshly collapsed dam. When the nausea hits I instantly cling to his chest nuzzling my head in between his neck and his shoulder.
   When he notices the episode he instantly starts kissing my forehead as if to transfer my pain to him through a kiss.
   "Our love is God,sweetheart would you like to go to school today or stay at home?"
   "I really want to stay home..." I complain "...but I've missed like four days in the last week."
   "Veronica honey, are you going to school today?" my mom questions from downstairs, I haven't gotten the guts to tell her the baby situation yet.
   "Yes Mrs. Sawyer, Veronica is going to school today." JD answers for me as I continue to nuzzle into his neck taking in the smell of his cologne.
  "Lets go beautiful, we have to get ready for school." he says as he jumps up and heads to my closet to find something for me to wear. He pulls out a blue plaid skirt and a baggy longsleeved crop top.
   "But I don't wanna." I whine like a spoiled five year old. Lifting my head from the pillow I'm hugging that took his place when he got up I flash him a small smile.
   "Too bad Ronnie, gotta go sometime." he exclaims as he pulls me up and dresses me and brushes through my hair.
   "Ok Mr.Dean." I giggle jokingly "But we could always stay home and cuddle some more."
  "Beautiful..." he says taking my face in his hands and directing it towards his and flashing me an amazing smile, "we can't just put the world on pause."
  "Oh come on! I beg to differ!" I exclaim sarcastically chasing him down the hall. Before I can notice I chased him all the way to the curb he quickly presses his lips to mine and slips a helmet over my head. Suddenly taking me by surprise he picks me up spins me around and places me on his motorcycle.
  "JD, I love you!" I say resting my head on the back of his shoulder with my hands around his waist as we speed off to school.
