"I was really hoping our food would of been ready by he time i come got out of the restroom." Brad said beamingly. He looked at Lauren, who was staring at the ground, trying to hide her tears. "What's wrong Lolo?" She looked up and said, "Brad, do you have a girlfriend? I mean if you do, why are you here on a date with me? That's super wrong."
Brad laughed a little. "I don't know what you're talking about?"
Lauren sighed. "I accidentally saw your message."
Brad immediately grabbed his phone and went through his messages. Then he laughed. "Lauren that's not my girlfriend, that's my mother! I don't even have a girlfriend." Lauren looked confused. "What?!"
Brad reached slowly to show her who the message was from.
"Oh." Lauren said quietly. "I'm sorry for overreacting"
Brad smiled. "I get it that your mind thinks that everyone is a cheater right now" he reached over and grabbed her hand. "But I'm not that way." He whispered into her ear.
______________________________________________________
On their way home, Lauren and Brad talked about all sort of things. Lauren now had much more intense feelings for Brad. He always made her laugh. He always made her smile. He made her really happy.
When they arrived to her apartment, Brad got out to say a few words to Lauren.
"I had really fun tonight." Brad started to say. "And I know things are going super quick and we don't know each other very well but..." As he said those words Lauren's heart was pounding really hard.
"Oh my god is he going to ask me out?" She thought in her mind
"I have feelings for you even though we barely met. I.. I.. I want us to be more than friends.....you know what I'm tryna say right?" He continued.
Lauren's heart was beating really hard right now. Wait her heart was beating way too hard as it would just fall out of her chest. She didn't know what to do so she just smiled hugely like a dork.
"I'm not pressuring you, Lo, just tell me when you're ready" he said
They were now really close from each other. They could even feel the other one breathing. This time, Lauren just did what her heart said. She closed the gap in between them and slowly pressed her lips on his. Brad happily kissed back with a much more passionate kiss and held Lauren's waist which brought her closer to him. Lauren held the back of his hair tightly and made the kiss as passionate as ever. A thousand butterflies were in Lauren's stomach as fire works burst and her body heated up. She never felt that way when she kissed Keaton. That kiss was just perfect. Lauren then pulled away in need of air and whispered in Brads ear. "I think I'm ready."
Brad hugged her real tight and said "I'm so lucky to have you Lo, I promise I'll always be faithful, respectful and sweet towards you, I wont break your heart ever. I love you Lo, I love you so much." Lauren melted as his words were just too sweet for her.
Brad stepped back and and slithered his hand in his pocket. He carefully pulled out a small box. The box was crusted with tiny white beads and had a red heart on it. He handed it to Lauren. Lauren took it and opened it. She gasped when she saw what was inside the box.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Lauren went to her room to get ready to sleep. She sat on her bed and got that box that Brad had given her. She pulled the 14K diamond bracelet that he had given her. It was white and gold. At the top of the bracelet said "She said yes" in cursive with a red heart beside it. Lauren started tearing up. She was ever so grateful for meeting a person like Brad. Lauren threw herself onto the bed. She pressed the bracelet close to her heart. Suddenly, she started feeling oozy. Something was wrong. She quickly stood up and ran to the restroom. She looked at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were getting watery. Her stomach started making rumbling noises. She felt something make its way up to her throat. She turned and opened the toilet seat and out came a big glob of throw up.she was gagging hard. She immediately cleaned herself up and tied up her hair back into a pony tail. A few seconds later, she started to feel extremely dizzy. She didn't know what was going on. She opened her medicine cabinet and swallowed two pills along with water. Perhaps she had gotten food poisoning or perhaps something has gone very wrong.
The next day, Lauren rushed to her best friends, Ally's and Dinah's house. She could always count on Ally for any kind of advice. When she arrived, she knocked loudly on her best friends door. Ally opened the door and Lauren pushed her way in.
"Well good morning to you too" Dinah said sarcastically.
" DJ, Ally, something bad is going on, last night I went on a date with Brad and we ate dinner. He asked me out and I said yes. Then we kissed and after a while, I started to feel bad and I threw up a lot and started to feel dizzy right after. I thought it was food poisoning or something" Lauren said in one breath.
"Woah.. Slow down a bit. You kissed Brad? Whaaaaaat?" Ally exclaimed.
"Dawg you went too fast." Dinah said eating her crisps.
"Guys! That doesn't matter right now. What's wrong with me!"
"Hey could you two please go inside. I'm trying to watch some TV." Dinah said
"Well geez thanks for helping me Dinah." Lauren said sarcastically while dragging Ally to her room.
"Well.. What do you want me to do?." Ally said
"I want to know whats wrong with me!" Lauren whined.
"Okay Lo, it can't possibly be food poisoning. You would have gotten awful stomach pain and maybe a little bit of acid reflux. Maybe diarrhoea too."
Lauren started pacing forth and back. Ally kept looking at her "Wait... Are you..."
Lauren quickly looked at her and cut her off. "Nononononono Impossible!" Lauren blurted out.
"Laur, tell me something. Did you ever 'do it' with Luke without protection?"
Lauren froze where she was and looked hard at Ally.
"Well?" Ally said
"Ally it was only one time. I don't think you could possibly get pregnant from only one time."
"Don't be so sure Lauren. It can happen. What we have to do right now is go to the store and and buy a test."
A couple of minutes later, Ally and Lauren were in the store looking for a test. They quickly bought one and hurried to Ally and Dinah's house. Lauren quickly ripped the box open and got out the test. "Ally, I'm nervous. I don't think I can do this." Lauren said in a worried tone. "Don't worry, it's going to be fine. Let's think positively." Lauren walked into the restroom and closed the door. Ally stood close to the door just in case while pacing back and forth chewing her nails. "How long will it take?" Ally asked Lauren. "The box said about 5 minutes." Lauren said from the other side of the door. Lauren did what the box instructed and laid the stick on the counter and sat on the toilet seat. Now, she was nervous as hell. She was sweating and her heart was racing. She was shaking. What if she was actually pregnant? Would she have to break up with Brad?
After 5 minutes had passed, she grabbed the stick and looked at it. Lauren opened the door and found Ally with a really worried face. She handed the test to Ally.
