Mikey's p.o.v:
I go to the sink to wash my hands. I look in the mirror and notice it's not on the wall right... it's leaning forward slightly so I pull it off the wall to check and as I do something falls into the sink. I put the mirror back on the wall and look down. My eyes widen as I see it's a positive pregnancy test.
Me: JOSIE!
I hear her walking towards me and so put my hands behind my back. She knocks and I open the door pulling her inside
Josie: what?
I bring my arms forward. And Josie looks down at my open hand. In it is the positive pregnancy test.
Me: what is this?
Josie looks at me: promise you won't tell?!
My eyes widen: Josie!
She shakes her head and looks at the floor: what...
Me: is it yours?
Josie looks at me for a second and then looks down at the pregnancy test: if I told you it wasn't... would you believe me?
I lower my voice so I am speaking softly not wanting to get her scared: should I?
She shakes her head: no...
She puts her back against the door and slides down it. I crouch next to her and put my hand on her knee stroking it gently.
Me: Josie... I...
Josie looks at me her eyes filled with tears: Mikey... please don't... I know what ever you say... you don't actually mean...
I roll my eyes: you want me to tell you the truth? Your an absolute idiot for getting pregnant! But it's happened! Can't do anything about it now! We will deal with it...
Josie cuts me off: we?
I look at her and smile: well now I know I am not going to let you go through this alone!
Josie smiles at that and then takes the pregnancy test I look at her puzzled and she tilts her head.
Josie: what... I felt a bit weird letting you hold something I peed on...
I laugh slightly and wipe my hand on my knee.
Me: I forgot you had to do that...
Josie nods laughing too.
I look at her and she lifts up her head.
Me: do you know who the father is?
Maybe I should explain. After me and Josie talked at her house and rye went storming off. Me and Josie got really close and I mean... REALLY... close. I visited her nearly every day for a good 2 months but then... something happened... and she stopped talking to me as much... and then she had to go to uni... there is a slight possibility it could be...
Josie: I have an idea...
I nod: can you tell me?
Josie shakes her head: no mike I am just gonna leave you guessing!
I laugh slightly: so...
Josie stands up and wipes herself down walking over to the counter and looking into the sink.
Me: Jose...

Josie's p.o.v:
Mikey: Jose...
I sigh: do I have to tell you?
Mikey: well... no... but I don't have to keep it a secret...
Me: touché Mikey Cobban touché
Mikey: so tell me...
I keep my eyes fixed on the sink: well it could be...
Suddenly there is a knock at the door.
Saved by the bell
Ellie: Josie I am busting can I use the loo... rather then you guys having a meeting in there?
Me: yeah! Hold on!
I grab the pregnancy test and shove it into my pocket. I open the door and slide out before Mikey. I start walking away and Mikey quickly follows trying to catch up. I notice that Andy and Jess are now both fast asleep on the sofa and smile. God their relationship is so cute!
Mikey grabs my arm and spins me around.
Mikey: Josie!
I roll my eyes: I am not telling you know mikey! We are in the kitchen they could wake up any minute!
Mikey scowls: there are like three other empty rooms in this dorm! Pick one and tell me!
I scowl back at him: Mikey! Will you shut up! I have kept this a secret for 2 and a half months...
Mikey interrupts me: 2 AND A HALF MONTHS!?
I shush him: Mikey!
Mikey: I'm sorry but what!!
I roll my eyes: I have been wearing baggy jumpers and sweats for the last month to keep it a secret! I am not letting it slip now!
Mikey: so your showing?!
I shake my head: no Mikey I'm just fat!
Mikey: so... I could well be...
I stop him: will you shut the fuck up!
I grab his arm and pull him into my room before shutting the door: yes! It could well be yours! But it could just as well be harvs or...
I pause. I don't want to say who's else's this baby could be.
Mikey: or...
I shake my head: doesn't matter!
Mikey: it does Jose! There is a baby human in your belly! It's kinda a big deal!!
I scowl: fine! Or jacks! It could be jacks!!
Mikey's looks at me his eyes wide: what! How?
I smile: well you see mike... when a boy and a girl...
Mikey: you know what I meant!
My smile fades and I look at the floor: it doesn't matter how it happened! But it did!
Mikey: all in the same...
I nod: yes all in the same month or so... I'm a massive slut! I know!
Mikey shakes his head: your not a slut Josie!
I roll my eyes and sit on the bed.
Mikey: have you got any ultrasounds?
I nod and open up my bed side cabinet draws. I bring out a little black box and give it to him. As soon as he sees the pictures he smiles. It's adorable.
He then looks at me: does anyone else know?
I shake my head: no...
I hear a cough and then look up to see Jess standing at my door.
Me: fuck!
Jess smiles: well I do now...
Me: Jess let me explain...
Jess just smiles: Josie I really couldn't care less! Now let me see the bump!
I look at her: the bump?
Jess nods: yes! Let's see it!
I smile and stand up hugging her: thank you...
She just nods: I can't wait to be the god mother!
I shake my head: omg Jess shut up!
