"Max, I dont feel so good."

Max ran down the hall, only to see El run into the girls bathroom. Max followed her and heard her sobbing. She walked over to the stall she heard El in and knocked. El's sobbing abruptly stopped.
"What do you want Max?!" El snapped. Max sighed.
"El, I know. Open the door. Please." Max begged. There was silence for a few moments from both girls.
"Fine." El murmured, slowly opening the door. El lifted up the toilet seat as she felt bile rise in her throat. Max knelt down and held her hair back. El sobbed.

"How long?" Max asked in a whisper tone. El looked at her.

"Three weeks." El replied with a crack in her voice. Max stayed silent. El looked at her, neither of them wanting to address the question they knew Max wanted to ask. El sighed.

"It's not Mike's." El assured Max. Max looked at her and nodded her head in understanding.

"Is it Troye's?" Max asked, helping El stand up. Tears fell from El's eyes again. She nodded her head.

"I thought he actually liked me. But a week or so after I found out he told me that he only got with me to upset Mike. He used me! And now I have to pay for it." El whimpered. Max hugged her comfortingly. El froze for a second, before sobbing and hugging her back.
"It'll all be okay El. I promise. Does hopper know?" Max asked. El nodded her head.
"That's why I've been gone for the past week or two. Hopper kept me out of school to check on me and get all the appointments for the baby done. Only he knows though. Troy was going to tell everyone but Hopper threatened him with his life to keep him quiet." El told Max. Max looked at El and wiped her tears off her cheeks.
"If that's what has been bothering you, why didn't you just say so?" Max asked her. El looked at her, frowning.
"I really wanted to believe it was Mikes baby, and that's why I kept bugging you guys and trying to get him back. I know if he thought it was his he would've done everything he could for me and the baby. But I know there's no way it could be his." El confessed. Max looked at her in confusion.
"What do you mean?" Max asked. El looked at her.
"It can't be his because we never did... that." El answered quietly. Max's eyes went as wide as saucers. Holy shit, she took Mikes v-card? She didn't expect that.
"Wow. With as long as you two were together, I thought-"
"Yeah well Mike wasn't ready. But it was for the better anyways I guess. We obviously didn't last." El replied. Max nodded her head.
"Hey, why don't we take you to the nurse, and ask the office to call hopper to come and get you." Max suggested. El nodded her head. Max and her walked out of the bathroom and made their way to the office. The office lady looked at them.
"Is there something I can do for you?" The office lady asked. El nodded her head. She took a deep breath.
"I need you to call my dad and ask him to come get me." El told the lady. Suddenly, El almost fell. Max saw El's eyes go glossy slightly. Max held onto her arm to help keep her standing.
"Are you Alright?!" Max asked. El looked at her.
"Max, I don't feel so good."
