tw: teenage pregnancy

Monday

"Nini!" Nini turned her head as she saw her Kourtney walking up to her quickly.

"Hey, Kourt. What's up?" Nini asked as she opened her locker, but then gagged a bit. "Ew, what is that smell?"

She looked over and saw Kourtney with a small box with a glazed donut in it on her hand.

"Okay, one, I got you this donut. But you look.. grossed out?" Kourtney asked as she handed over the donut to Nini.

"Oh my gosh, no. You can have it for yourself, or else i'm going to puke from the sight of it." Nini said shoving the box back to Kourtney.

"Weird.. glazed donuts are your favorite." Kourtney said as she slowly put the box away in her bag.

"Eh, yeah." Nini said as she got the last of her books from her locker. She then shut her locker and walked down the halls with Kourtney beside her.

"So.." Kourtney started off but stopped as she and Nini saw two people walking together.

"Wait a second." Kourtney said as she scrunched her eyebrows. "You and Ricky broke up?"

Nini just nodded her head sadly, "Yep, and it looks like he moved on already."

Nini looked at the two of them and noticed that the girl he was with was the same one from the party.

Arielle Greene. Head cheerleader of East High and most popular girl there. No other words could be said.

"Oh hell no, he-" Kourtney said, about to approach the two of them but Nini stopped her.

"No, don't. It's okay.. really." Nini said as she and Ricky quickly made eye contact. For a moment, he looked guilty? Oh well, she quickly looked back on the ground.

"But Nini! He literally broke up with you what? Friday night? And now he's here with this Arielle chick holding her hand?" Kourtney said as she flung her hands in the air. "Nini, you can't just let him get away with that! Who knows, he could've been cheating on you for a while or something!"

Nini's eyes teared up a bit as she remembered Friday nights events, "Well, I guess I am. I don't want to talk about him anymore, Kourt, so let's just go to-" Nini said but stopped as she felt like she was going to throw up.

"Nini?" Kourtney asked, but Nini sprinted to the nearest bathroom. Kourtney quickly followed her to see what was wrong.

"Oh my gosh, please don't ever run away again." Kourtney said as she was breathing heavily from how fast she ran to follow Nini. "Nini?"

"In here.." She heard Nini say from a stall. No one was in the bathroom at the moment, and so Kourtney opened up the door to the stall Nini was currently in.

"Oh my gosh!" Kourtney exclaimed as she saw Nini on the ground leaning against the stall. She then quickly flushed the throw up that was in the toilet away.

"Nini! If you're sick, you shouldn't be at school right now!"

"But i'm not, I swear Kourt! I was fine when I woke up!" Nini replied back as she put her hair in a low ponytail.

Kourtney thought for a second and looked at Nini, which kind of freaked Nini out a bit.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Nini asked as she laughed nervously.

"When was the last time you had your period?"

"Uh.." Nini said as she thought about it, eyes then widening. "Last month, and it's almost June! You don't think-"

"I'll go and get one with you after school." Kourtney said as she and Nini walked out of the stall. Nini just nodded slowly as she and Kourtney exited the bathroom.

"Oh god, thank you for self-checkout. I was not about to have those cashiers give us dirty looks." Kourtney said as she bought the pregnancy test.

"Okay, just take it now in the bathroom, put it in your bag after, and we'll check once we get to your house, okay?" Kourtney said as she handed the bag to Nini. Nini just silently nodded as she walked to the bathroom.

Five minutes after, Nini walked back out. Fear was very much evident in her face. Kourtney just put an arm around her an rubbed her back, "It'll be okay, whatever the results are."

Nini didn't say anything, but just nodded her head.

•

"I'm scared, Kourtney. You go look at it!" Nini said as she paced around in circles in her room.

"If you say so.." Kourtney said as she got the bag and slowly took out the test and read the results.

"Well..?"

"Congrats, Nini" Kourtney said as she gave her friend a smile, but still was scared for her.

"What! No, no , no." Nini said as she took the test from her to look at it, and sure enough was the word "pregnant."

"No, no, no! My moms will kill me!" Nini said as she fell to her knees and began to cry again. Kourtney crouched down and engulfed Nini in a hug.

"Nini, you have to tell them." Kourtney said, "They're going to notice eventually in like two months."

"You're right, I have to." Nini said, sniffling. "But- but what about Ricky?"

Kourtney looked over at her sadly, "You're going to have to tell him too."
