AUTHORS NOTE : This is a rushed chapter, so yep.

Kalani | Bathroom

I stood there looking at the tests for I don't know how long. I just know that Trinity came into the bathroom to see what the holdup was she saw the results she instantly brought me into her arms.

Me: Wh-What am I going to do?

She didn't say anything. She just rubbed my back as I cried onto her shoulder.

I'm starting to think that I'm always crying now, but I have reason to be right now.

She led me back into the room and asked Bali to give us a moment who said she'll be downstairs. I sat on the bed and just looked down at the floor with warm tears steadily coming down my face.

Trinity: You're going to have to tell him sooner or later.

Me: Didn't he already leave? They were only supposed to be here for two or three weeks.

Trinity: Yeah but they wanted to extend their vacation. They leave in three days, well that's when Bali is leaving.

I nodded.

Me: So, I have three days to decide whether to tell him or not.

Trinity: No, you have three days to tell him. He helped make this baby, he's going to know one way or another.

Me: How do I know that he's going to help take care of it?

Trinity: Seriously? Listen to yourself. Lucas loves you! He will do anything for you so he'll do anything for that baby and if he doesn't, I will kick his ass and help raise this baby with you.

I looked up at her as I wiped my face.

Me: I don't know what I'd do with you, Trinity. I really don't.

Trinity: And you won't ever have to find out because I'm always going to be here. Whether you want me to or not. You can never get rid of me.

Me: I'd never even dream of it.

I pulled her into a hug and just laid on her shoulder thinking.

A few moments later, we pulled back.

Trinity: I have to go now but I'll stop by tonight alone, okay?

I nodded.

Me: Okay. I'll be here.

She kissed my forehead before leaving out. I shortly heard the door close after the alarm system was rearmed.

I sighed and threw myself back onto my bed.

What about my school? I doubt I can be a pregnant dancer.

I looked at my calendar on the wall and saw that I had practice today. I got up and got into the shower.

I was soon dressed in my tan tights, my leotard and had my hair in a doughnut bun. I slipped on jeans and a hoodie on top of my "clothes" and grabbed my dance bag that had a spare change of clothes in it. I then grabbed my keys and phone before tossing my wallet inside of my dance bag. I then unarmed the house then rearmed it before leaving so it could know I was leaving. I got in the car and pulled off.

I took in a deep breath as I walked into my dance teacher's classroom where some of the other dancers were.

I saw my teacher behind her desk and decided that I needed to speak to her now about my "problem". I sat my bag down and went over to her desk.

Me: Mrs. Greene?

She looked up from her computer and gave me a bright smile.

Mrs. Greene: Kalani, yes?

Me: Can I speak to you out in the hall?

Mrs. Greene: Sure.

I followed her out into the hall and took in a deep breath as I folded my hands over my stomach.

Me: Um two weeks ago, I made the decision to be...intimate with someone.

I had to find the right word for that.

Me: And it turns out that he didn't use a condom and I didn't take any pills or am on birth control.

I glanced up at her face and I could see the wheels turning in her head.

Me: I just found out today that I'm pregnant.

Her eyes widened before she slowly nodded.

Mrs. Greene: Okay um, first congrats and I wish you the best of luck in your pregnancy.

I nodded and looked up at my dirty blond-haired dance teacher.

Mrs. Greene: Are you wondering if you can still be a dancer?

I slowly nodded.

Mrs. Greene: Let me ask you something, have you ever heard of Mary Helen Bowers?

I shook my head no.

Mrs. Greene: She's a ballerina and she was an 9-month pregnant ballerina four years ago.

I was slowly beginning to feel hope that I could still be a dancer.

Mrs. Greene: Mary created a prenatal workout for women who also want to stay active and celebrate their femininity. Is she can do that, I don't see why you can't continue to dance.

I was so excited.

Mrs. Greene: Mary also admits those dancing routines helped her to prevent a lot of pregnancy aches and to embrace her changing body.

I nodded.

Me: So, I can still dance?

Mrs. Greene: I don't see why not. You will of course have to talk it over with your professors and Dean Bland but I am fine with keeping you in my class and keeping an eye on you. Being a dancer and pregnant is hard, but I believe you can do it.

I smiled at her.

Me: Thanks. I honestly have no clue what I'm doing. My mother wasn't a very good mother to me, so I'm going off of my father's parenting which isn't bad but I believe a mother's way of mothering is very different than the fathers.

Mrs. Greene: That is because it is. As you know, I have four kids, so if you need any help during your pregnancy, please let me know and I will help out any way I can.

Me: That means a lot, thank you, Mrs. Greene.

Mrs. Greene: Of course. Class starts soon, better get to stretching.

Me: I will.

I gave her a final smile before heading back into the class and get ready for class.

But how was it though?

Will she tell Lucas?

How will he react if she does tell him?
