And just like that, we were hood rats, like you see in movies. We stole, cheated, and hurt to get what we needed. This was kind of....sexy. Like, a weird bad guy type. Seeing 2-d not be a wimp and a child is kind of different. It's like having a man who can finally protect you.
And 2-d got more muscles and got stronger too. It's only been about 2 weeks.
"Hey (y/n), I'm going to go in there and get a few things. Do yew need anyfing?"
"Uhm.. OH! A PREGNANCY TEST! We almost forgot about that with all our problems."
I followed 2-d into a Walgreens to go straight into the tampons and stuff. Right beside them were the pregnancy tests. 2-d got the most expensive one and stuffed it into his pocket. We bought a piece of chocolate to not look suspicious with money we found on the side of the road.
"Excuse me ma'Im do you have a bathroom?"
"Yes, it's right down there."
The girl pointed towards two doors and 2-d lead the way, holding my hand.
"Do...do yew want me to go in wif yew?"
"Of course."
We walk in together, still holding hands.
I take the box and unbox a cup and a stick. I leave the instructions in there because I'm pretty sure I know how to work it. I pee in the cup the set it down on the sink. All while 2-d is looking at the floor worried. So worried that his eyes have turned white.
I stick the white and blue stick in the pee for about 5 minutes. I closed my eyes and pulled the stick out of the cup. I opened my eyes and it had 2 lines on it.
...I can't believe it. Maybe I should check the instructions. I read through y'all of it until I get to the part where it says how to know.
"1 line- not pregnant or too early
2 lines- pregnant"
"W-w-what does it say?"
2-d was so worried. I couldn't help but to cry. We don't have any money. I have insurance and they just take my money out of my account so I'll be able to go to the doctor. But that doesn't include abortions. So that's already done. I mean, adoption, but who wants 2 dirty and poor people's child? And once I've been pregnant for more than 9 months I know I'll already be in love with it.
"Oh gawd no.."
"I-I'm sorry I ca-can't get rid of it."
"I'd never let yew do that anyway. We'll raise it. I've already got 8 kids that I haven't talked to. Maybe this time I can be a actually father to... him...her?"
"...what will we do Stu? My parents didn't even know I have a boyfriend now I'm pregnant and my brother... oh jeez."
"It's okay. I'll tell Russ. We both can tell your parents. Right now we need to get home so we can have the baby grow well in your stomach, luv."
"2-d?"
"Yea?"
"I love you. More than anything. I'm not sure what I'd do without you."
"Some other guy I'm sure. Your gorgeous. I'm not good enough for you. I'm just a ugly coward. I'm not sure how you love me but I love you waaayyyy more."
We left the store and tried to figure out what we'd do. There was a phone booth over there. We could probably beg for money and get a dollar.
•••
An hour and a half passed and someone finally gave us a dime giving us a whole dollar. It's 50 cents per call so we could call my parents and Murdoc. Murdoc could get us home or at least give us money and my parents would know we're coming to see them.
Murdoc luckily gave Us 100 bucks and since we were in America I can hop on a train and get to New York to my parents. Here we go.
