Caty Jones' POV

I did NOT feel like going to Psychology today nor any class in general. My sickness has been getting worse. It's gotten to that point where I threw up every morning and night. The headache and grogginess was the worst in the morning.
Also, Caleb and I aren't currently talking. He apparently visited my house when I wasn't home. He's been blowing up my phone with calls and texts, voicemails, etc. I had to process what my Brother said was true or false. If I heard anything from Caleb's perspective that matched Aidens story. I'd be ignoring Mr. Finn for a while.

"Are you sure you're not um...?" Cassandra was trying to ask me.

"I'm sure, Cass," I tell her getting more comfortable in my own bed.

"Have you felt more hot?" I nod as she feels my forehead. "Do you feel... bloated?"

"Yeah. My stomach hurts when I try to suck it in," I tell her enjoying how cold my room is.

"I think you're pregnant," My eyes widen in horror remembering Aiden's last words.
I shake my head, no. I refused to believe it. Any of it.

"If I am pregnant... how do I tell Caleb? My family? Aiden threatened that if he found out Caleb ... he'll murder him," I finally confess about some things that happened with Aiden.

"If I were in your situation... I would get rid of it," I felt the tears welling in my eyes as I started sobbing underneath my blanket. I had no idea what to do.

"MY LIFE IS RUINED!" I exclaimed sobbing over the fact I'm possibly pregnant.

"Caty, we should just call in," She said. I had a couple hours till my first class. Hers were later in the evening.

"You'd stay with me?" I asked sniffling. I got out from under the blanket. To see her sitting next to me.

"Yeah, I would. You've done so much for me, Caty. I need to return the favor," I shook my head, no.

"I'll try to go to school today," I said sitting up. I sigh hugging her as we held each other for a while. I'll try to go to school but I don't know what'll happen.

"Last class, Caty. Just try your best to make it through," I nod as I take my bag walking to class. My headache turned into a migraine, I drank as much water as my body would let me take in. Yet, it still didn't help the pain.
Once I walked in. I rushed to my seat resting my head on the table. I felt dizzy and very uneasy.

"Good Afternoon!" I heard Caleb greet everyone in the room. I could barely lift my head up. I slowly got up walking to Caleb. I wanted to tell him I was feeling sick. Yet, I knew he was furious with me for being ignorant.

"Uh... Mr. Finn?" I asked going up to his desk. He was still standing grabbing his papers.

"Yes, Ms. Jones?" He asked professionally.

"Is there a chance... I could leave early?" He raised a brow at me.

"Do you mind telling me why?" He asked standing in front of me. "Are you alright?" He asked. My vision was blurry and the next thing I knew... It was black.

Caleb Finn's POV

"Do you mind telling me why?" I asked her standing in front of her. She looked very uneasy. Her face was red, her hair was a mess, she looked like she was on the verge of puking, "Are you alright?" I asked her concerned about her well-being. All of a sudden she began falling. I caught her in time luckily. Resting her gently slowly on the ground.

"Caty? Caty Jones?" I asked shaking her.

"Do you want me to call security or the paramedics?" A girl asked standing up.

"Yes, please! Class is dismissed!" I exclaimed to see everyone rushing out of the room.

"Caty? Caty, wake up!" I was trying to wake her up but nothing was working. I checked her pulse, she was still breathing. Rested my hand on her heart to feel it still beating. Why isn't she waking up?!

"Caty!" I hear a female voice. I look up to see her Aunt Justice running to us.

"The paramedics are on their way... Is she gonna be alright?" Jasmine asked rushing back in.

"Yeah, thank you!" I reply to her question. She nods grabbing her stuff and exiting the room.

"Caty, please?" I asked trying to wake her.

-

I sit in the waiting room. I've been wanting to see her for a while. The doctors needed to examine her to make sure she's alright. It's been three hours already. I see Justice walk in sitting next to me.

"What happened?" She asked me.

"She came to my desk asking if she could leave early. I asked why, and the next thing I knew... she fainted," I tell her the truth. She nods before turning to me. I sensed she had something to say. I adjusted in my seat looking around the waiting room.

"So, you think I don't know what's going on?" She questioned me as if she knew everything. I acted oblivious not having a clue what she's going on about. I raise a brow at her.

"What?" I asked obliviously.

"I wasn't born yesterday, Caleb. I've known that you and Caty were secretly together... Risking your job for my niece," I remained calm so it wasn't obvious after she told me she figured it out.

"I also figured something was going on when she tried dropping her favorite class. The way you two looked at each other before she left made it obvious," She finished explaining rubbing her leg. I sigh slowly exhaling.

"Why haven't you reported me to the authorities if you figured it out?" I asked her being quieter than usual. She shrugs with a smile.

"You love her. She loves you." I was stunned to hear that from her Auntie. I sighed rubbing both my legs. I've been waiting impatiently to visit her. I just wanted to know if she was alright.

Caty Jones' POV

I slowly opened my eyes to see bright lights. I covered my eyes with my arm to see the nurse checking my vitals.

"Hello?" I asked. My headache went away, I had more fluids in my system. I didn't feel all that nauseous like I had before Mr. Finn's class.

"Hello." She greeted me with a warm friendly smile. She looked like she was in her mid-thirties. She had flawless skin with very few wrinkles around her mouth. You could get a vibe she was kind.

"Why am I here?" I asked her. She checked my clipboard that was at the edge of my bed.

"You fainted at your college campus. Which is common for first pregnancy," She said checking the paper work. My eyes widen in shock.

"Pregnancy?!" I questioned shocked. She looked up at me nodding her head, yes.

"Yes, six weeks into the pregnancy. Congratulations!" She gives me a smile before putting the clipboard back exiting the room.

This can't be happening! I'm carrying my professors child. OMG AIDEN! My family CANNOT find out...
