I looked down at the test. And had a heart attack

Positive.

I took the other tests. Positive. Positive. 

I started to cry. I curled up into a ball on the floor and cried. I punched one of the walls in anger.

I just continued to punch and cry.

****Darry's POV**** (Boom! Bet you weren't expecting that)

I woke up with a start. I heard a loud Bang! on my wall. I heard it over and over. I got out of bed and went out into the hallway.

I looked in Pony and Soda's room, they were both asleep. I still heard the banging. I saw the light on in the bathroom. I knocked.

"Go away!" I heard Jasmine scream. I knocked again. "I said go away." Her voice faltered that time. She was crying.

"Jasmine let me in," I asked. She screamed at me once again. "Just let me in."

I heard her whimper but followed by a sigh. The door unlocked and she opened the door.

"Why're you crying?" I asked stepping into the bathroom. She gestured to the shower wall.

On it were three sticks. As I looked closer I saw they were home pregnancy tests. Each one had a + sign on it. I looked back at Jasmine. She was in a ball crying on the ground.

"You're pregnant?" I asked baffled. No answer. I was mad now. "Who did this?" I said sternly.

"P-Pony," she choked out, still bawling. Once those words leave her mouth I get pissed off.

Me, Soda, and especially Dallas told Pony not to touch her. I was about to storm out of the bathroom and go to Pony's room but I felt Jasmine grab my arm.

"Don't tell him," she said, tears falling down her face. "Just don't tell him." She wraps the test in toilet paper and puts them at the bottom of the trashcan. She washes her hands then turns to me. She looks up at me. She hugs me around the waist. "Don't tell any of them." She mumbles into my shirt.

I rub her back to soothe her. "I won't." She lets go of me. "Go to sleep. We'll talk about this tomorrow." She walks out of the bathroom and I hear her door shut. I turn off the lights and walk back to my room.

****Jazz's POV****

I go back to my room and sit on the bed. What the hell am I gonna do?

I know for sure I ain't telling Ponyboy anything. I lay down and look at my stomach. There is something growing inside me. WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH ME!?!?!?!?!?

I lay down on the bed and curl up into a ball. I cry and cry, until I fall asleep.

 Three Weeks Later

I wake up and look out the window. The sun is already up, but just barely over the horizon. I look over the clock. It is just over 6:30. I get out of bed and get a head rush. I get instant nausea and run to the bathroom.

I collapse on the floor next to the toilet and empty the contents into it. I absolutely hate throwing up.

"Jasmine what's wrong?" I hear Soda say.

"Nothing," I say, before I throw up again. 

"It's not nothing," he says rubbing my back. "Darry!" he yells.

I hear loud footsteps come into the bathroom.

"What are you-" Darry cuts himself off.

This has been happening for the past 5 days, but I have been avoiding my talk with Darry. I haven't been going to school either. I have stayed at the Curtis' though. I don't go back to Jess'. Her dad I there and I was told to make myself scarce.
