I call Cody.

"Hi. I was thinking maybe we can go out to lunch to discuss some stuff."

"Alright. Let's go to Buccaneers."

Buccaneers is a really good French seafood restaurant.

"Okay. Bye."

I hang up. I see Vikki watching Dr.Phil. It's a segment on that a child's mother is pregnant and her 23-year old son is the father. I think to myself. I thought that was incest. Vikki laughs at it.

What? Has she had sex with her dad or something?

Vikki stares at me behind.

"I know you're pregnant. I saw your test in the trash yesterday."

Yes, it was a random comment, but it was true.

"Well.. yea.. I have to tell the father today."

Vikki's eyes light up like the Northern Lights.

"Who is it?" She asks. I feel like she's my best friend after all this crap. I think it would make me a good friend if I told her. I sigh, and yell out,

"MY EX BOYFRIEND THAT IS ONE OF MY CLIENTS!" Vikki looks at me like I'm mental. I don't blame her, though.

"Nice." She says. I quickly run out the door, because I can't be in there right now, but I'm also late to lunch. I tell the waiter that I'm with Cody, sitting right in the middle of a full house. I'm just going to tell him, and leave. I sit down with Cody. I order a coke and I also order calamari as an appetizer. We sit, and occasionally look at each other.

"Can I just say something?" I say, shaking, trembling, and sweating. This might be the end of not just our future, but also as friendship. Cody nods, and stares at the menu. Does he even care? Boys are such mindless jerks. I let it go.

"I'm pregnant. You're the father." Cody drops his menu, and stares at me like I'm a slenderman.

"WHAT?" He stands up, making a scene. "THE ACTUAL HELL! I THOUGHT WE USED A CONDOM!"

"No.. We didn't. Now sit down so we can discuss this like adults." I say, staring at the people around me.

"FORGET THIS. FUCK YOU LIAR!" Cody yells in my face. I wish I could switch his reaction with Vikki's. I get up, turning red.

"WELL YOUR'E MARRYING A SLUT SO YOU KNOW WHAT? ILL TAKE CARE OF MY BABY ALONE!" I slap Cody, and sit back down. Cody gets mad, and walks out. What a bitch. Everyone comes over to me, asking me if I'm okay. I start crying. I don't know what to think. I can't help it if I'm pregnant. Random people are comforting me. I actually feel loved. Some people are even offering to pay for my meal. I keep on crying like the emotional bitch I am, and accept their friendly offers. They sit back down, but a woman sits with me.

"I know how that feels. I'm a single mom of three. The father left me, too. I have to go, but I'm Heather." She says. I think back to Total Drama World Tour. I look into her eyes. It's that Heather.
