0.8 Tests

10th July

-Perrie's Point of View-

I woke up at 4am to my stomach turning; I leapt out of bed and ran to the toilet immediately throwing up. It's been like this for the past couple of weeks and my period was due but I normally get really ill before my period so this is nothing. I lay down on the bathroom floor and sighed heavily, I hate periods. No school for me today, I can barely move 5 inches without my stomach turning and me throwing up. We celebrated Ashton's birthday the other day, they all got drunk but I never because the smell of alcohol made me gag. My dad's are home in 2 weeks so if I'm not better by then they can look after me. I crawled (literally) out of the bathroom and into my bedroom where I pulled myself up onto my bed and snuggled back into my bed and duvet. I text my dad's telling them I was sick and asked them to ring to school to let them know. I hope this sickness passes. I also text Calum but I got no reply because obviously he's asleep.

-Calum's Point of View-

Perrie is off today, she text me this morning at 4am telling me that she had been sick again, I didn't get the message till I woke up at 7 but I sent a text to her asking if she wanted me to come round and look after her but after receiving no reply I got ready for school and went about my normal day.

"I'm going to go see her after school," Gemma said as we sat at lunch with them,

"I'll go with you," Jen said,

"I'd go but we've got band practice," I said,

"We can cancel if you want to check on her," Ashton said,

"No, we need to practice we have that gig coming up, I'll go round and see her when we're done," I said,

"Okay we'll tell her," Jen smiled, I smiled back and continued to eat my food.

I hope she's okay.

-Perrie's Point of View-

Today's the 10th; I should be on my period by now. I didn't check my dates before but when I did I realised I was supposed to be on my period on the 5th, I'm 5 days late. Oh God. I'm sick in the morning. I can't eat some foods I love. Alcohol made me gag. Oh Jesus. Please no. I jumped out of bed (big mistake) and ran to get changed. It was 2pm and I knew the girls would come visit me after school so I have an hour. I grabbed money from my tin and my keys before running out of the door and running to the supermarket. Why are there so many different brands? Why am I being so cliché?

"Do you need help?" A woman asked,

"Oh erm, yes please,"

"This one is more accurate," She said handing me it, I grabbed another 3 and smiled,

"Thank you,"

"It'll be okay," She said smiling at me,

"I hope so," I said before walking away. Most people would judge the 17 year old buying pregnancy tests (just like the worker behind the till when I paid for them),

"They're for my mum," I told the worker, she nodded her head,

"I thought they were for you for a second," She said laughing, I laughed awkwardly and shook my head,

"Have a nice day," She smiled,

"Thank you," I said taking the bag and walking out of the supermarket. I ran home and ran up the stairs to my bathroom.

"Water," I said running to the kitchen and grabbing a bottle. After peeing on all 4 of them I sat there and waited.

What if I am? Calum would kill me. He's done it so many times safely but here I am fucking everything up. If I am I'll fuck up his life. I won't go to university if I am, there goes my writing career. What about Calum? He's into music or something; he'll be able to continue that surely. Right?

My dad's?! They'll kill me; they always go on at me about the importance of safe sex. I always told them that they didn't need to worry because I would be a virgin forever but dear God I was wrong, I jinxed myself.

What about Calum's family? They'll hate me for ruining Calum's life and they'll be annoyed with Calum for:

1. Having sex un-safely

2. Getting me pregnant

Dear God let it be a false alarm.

When the 3 minutes were up I slowly got off of the bathroom floor and walked over to the tests. It took me a good minute and a half to gather the courage to look at the tests...
