The new girl and the badboy

talking

I hadn't been able to move out of bed for the last week, constant vomiting, I couldn't keep any foods down at all. I felt absolutely dreadful, today was the first day id actually been able to drag myself out of the house, I walked down the stairs, so drained, so sick. I walked into the kitchen to see Jake and his mother sat at the dining room table, both of them looked up at me at the same time, a smile reached across jakes face, that smile made me feel a million dollars.

"good morning babe" he said standing up and walking towards me, stroking his hand ever so slightly across my face. 'how are you feeling this morning?' a slight glance of concern appeared.

"feeling slightly better today, I booked myself an appointment at the doctors just to double check that I'm okay, Viana-rose is driving me, she'll be here any minute." I gave him a look of reassurance and a kiss on the cheek "I will ring you when I'm out"

I walked out of the front door and there was Viana parked up on the street sat in her car playing on her phone, I walked down and jumped in the passenger side door. "right lets do this" ...

I hated the doctors office, it was so old, I hated the smell, the atmosphere, the temperature. "Lexi"a voice called across the waiting room, "the doctor will see you now"

I walked across the waiting room and threw the large wooden doors leaving Viana sat there.

I walked in the doctors office and she looked at me and asked what symptoms I had had over the last week, she looked at me worryingly and asked, "have you taken a pregnancy test recently"

I laughed a little and said how everyone around me had been suffering with a sickness bug and that I was sure it was just that but even past my defensiveness she passed me a small plastic pot and asked me to make a urinary sample, so I took it to the bathroom and did so.

When I entered the office again I handed her it back and she a pregnancy test inside and she explained how we would have to wait a couple of minutes for an accurate reading and she started typing things into her computer records. Every thought went through my head, how could I do this, is it even possible, I'm only 17?!

What felt like a lifetime later she stood up and walked over to the pot and pulled the stick out, looked at me with a look of sympathy and proclaimed,

"you have a decision to make, you have three options"

what have I done? what is Jake going to say?!

**************

I walked into the doctors waiting room and looked at Viana, "I'm done" I said bluntly, I could see her brain going with the amount of questions she wanted to ask but she could tell by my face that I just didn't want to talk about it.

The car ride home was silent, both just sat there with the radio on a low volume all the way home, she pulled up outside of jakes and looked at me and said, "what happened"

I burst into a flood of tears and she hugged me close, "I'm pregnant!" I said through tears, "what is Jake going to say!"

After being sat with Viana for around fifteen minutes just chatting and crying I plucked up the courage to go inside, my eyes were puffy and red, I had a bunged up nose from crying. I walked through the front door sniffling with every step and saw Jake and his family all sat there together in the sitting room.

"hey babe, whats the matter?" a concerned tone came into his voice as she looked up and saw the distressed state I was in, what a mess.

I walked into the sitting room and sat next to Jake and he put arm around me, pulled me close and kissed my forehead "come on, you can tell me"

I looked around the room between each persons face and burst into tears again, "I don't know how to tell you guys this. but..." I stopped briefly, took a breath of fresh air and closed my eyes, "... I'm pregnant" all of these concerned faces looked back at me, obviously taken aback by those two little words that came escaped my mouth, those two little words that will change my life forever, seventeen and pregnant, what are people going to say about me?! Everyone was going to find out one way or another but how long am I meant to hide it. What are my parents going to say.

Everybody looked at me with a look of worry and awe, "its okay darling, we are all here for you every step of the way"

I looked over at Jake who was staring into space, the look on his face was a look as if his whole world had just fallen apart, oh how I felt terrible. I felt like I wanted to crawl in a hole and disappear, to take those words back and just make him feel okay, to have my smiling boy back. For him to be his happy normal self.

After a few minutes of no speaking Jake stood up, "I need some time" he said walking out of the living room, I heard the door shut and that was the last we saw of him for hours, where on earth could he be. Why had he just walked out like that?

I really hope that he is okay.

------------------

The next morning I woke up and looked to my side, Jake was still not back, where was he and why had he not come home, no matter the bombshell I had just dropped he should be back by now, the sympathy I felt for him bipased and now all I felt was anger, how could he leave his pregnant girlfriend to worry about him for this long.

I suddenly heard the door downstairs and someone stumbling through the house, I heard a faint "ouch" and a clabber as someone fell up the stairs, my bedroom door opened and there was Jake, his shirt torn, obviously bladdered, blood on his face. I got out of bed and walked over to him "where the hell have you been, I have been worried sick!" I shouted at him,

"oh just take a chill pill" he slurred " I just went for a few drinks with George. "oh and he know about the baby, that friend of yours isn't as good as you thought it would seem"
He walked over to the bed and collapsed in a pile, still in his clothes and still covered in blood.
Why would viana do this to me.
