Olivia's POV

I run around the house grabbing bits and pieces for our trip to Aspen. Mia and I are running a little late considering we woke up late today, due to a hangover from last nights party. 

"We need to hurry!" I yell to Mia while running into my room.

"I kno- Fuck!" She starts to yell back and I hear a small bang. 

"What was that?" I ask. 

"I stubbed my damn toe." She cries. 

I burst out laughing, she probably fell to the floor causing the bang. "Shut up" She whines walking into my room. 

I continue to laugh as I throw socks, panties and bras into my suitcase. I get my phone to check the time. "Fuck, we have an hour to finish packing and get to LAX" I say rushing. 

"I've finished packing." Mia shrugs, and I glare at her. 

"Well help me!" I exclaim and she laughs. "You suck dick."

"Only Johnson's." She says. 

"Ew! I didn't need to know that." I laugh throwing a shoe at her. 

She laughs, "Okay okay, I'll help. It's gonna be such a fun couple of weeks." 

"I know right." I say, grabbing a sweatshirt, I scramble around again going over my list. "Okay, so I've got my toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, oh fuck I need my pads and tampons." I say starting to walk into my bathroom, but stop. 

I turn around to Mia with wide eyes. "What?" She asks. 

"My period was supposed to come last week." I say, "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god." 

"Liv, it's okay. You've been stressed, it's probably just stress." She says, mostly trying to assure herself, which doesn't make the situation better. 

"I c-can't be pregnant Mia." I start to cry, "I'm not even out of highschool. Jack and I always used protection as well." 

"So it would be Jack's if you are?" She asks. 

"Yeah, I haven't slept with anyone else. Oh my god, why does this have to happen to me" Tears stream down my face. 

"You finish packing and I'll go and get a test for you quickly okay?" She says and I nod sniffing and running my hands through my hair. 

Mia leaves, and I just cry as I finish packing. This just makes the situation worse, I'm not ready to be a mother, surely Jack isn't ready to be a father. We're only 18, not even in college.

After 10 or so minutes Mia comes running in and basically chucks the test at me. I rush into the bathroom peeing on the stick. Mia holds my hand as we wait the amount of minutes for it to show the results.

"Whatever the results are, it's gonna be okay." she squeezes my hand and the alarm on my phone goes off, and I look at Mia. 

"I'm not ready Mia." 

"I don't think anyone is." She says.

I take a deep breath and take the test in my hands. I look at it, and immediately start crying. "I'm pregnant." I whisper. 

"Oh my god. What are you going to do?" 

"I don't know yet." I say, I look at the time and see that we have to go, "we have to go." I say.

"We don't have to go Liv." Mia says. 

"No. I want to go, and if I don't everyone will know something's up. I don't want that." I say.
