Hazel "Babe get dressed we're gonna be late for her funeral" I whisper in my boyfriend's ear. He groans and shuffled in bed before getting up. I feel my stomach turning and cover my mouth.
Last nights dinner was down the drain as I lay on the floor, praying I wasn't sick. I hold my stomach as I try to calm it down.
I put on my dress for the funeral and skip out on eating. "Let's go princess" Sweet Pea says, placing a hand on my lower back. The feeling in my stomach comes back as he touches me. "Babe go warm up the bike I left something in our room" I tell him hoping to get to the bathroom in time.
I flush the toilet again and sigh.
I walk over to her casket, placing a white rose, Midge's favorite flower, on the top. "I'm so sorry I couldn't protect you Midge" I cry, my tears dripping on the hardwood.
Cheryl and the vixens sing a beautiful song in her honor. "That was beautiful Cheryl" I compliment. "Thank you" she says before we notice Midge's mom. "Let's walk her to her car" I suggest.
We walk over to Misses Clump. "Hi Misses Clump" I say. "Oh hello Hazel" she sniffles. I rub her shoulder and ask her if we could walk her to her car.
She accepts and we start walking to her car. The sheriff walks over to us and tries to apologize but Misses Clump slaps him. "You are supposed to protect our children, you should be ashamed of yourself." She cries before I take her shoulder and guide her to her car.
I meet back up with Cheryl just as I was feeling faint. "Is everything okay Hazelkins?" She questions. "I need you to pick up something from the store for me." I inform her. "Okay" she replies.
"Do you really think-" I interrupt her before she can say a word. "I just want to know" I sigh. I take the test into the bathroom and follow the instructions.
I look at myself in the mirror and ruffle my hair. "What if I am pregnant?" I whisper to myself. My phone timer goes off, signaling that the test was ready.
"Holy shit, Cheryl" I gasp. The red lipped girl opens the door quickly and looks at the two lines. "Oh my god, Hazel, you're pregnant" Cheryl squeals. My eyes are wide and the breath leaves my lungs.
"I don't know if we can support a baby, look at where we live" tears sting my eyes. Cheryl puts her hands on my shoulders before speaking. "Hazel, I will help you every step of the way, and you need to talk to Sweet Pea about this" she says soothingly.
I take a deep breath and nod. Cheryl pats my shoulder and brings me in for a tight hug. "I love you Hazelkins" She says before grabbing her things and walking out of the trailer.
I sigh and put a hand on my stomach. Just as I sit on the couch Sweet Pea walks through the door. "Is something wrong?" He asks seeing I was worried.
He sits down next to me and rubs my back gently. I look down before reaching in my hoodie pocket, pulling out the pregnancy test.
He takes the test from my hands and looks at it. Once he realizes what it meant he looked back up at me with wide eyes and a smile. "Are you really?" He asks happily.
A confused look forms on my face. "You aren't upset?" I question. "Of course not princess, you are the love of my life, I understand we are still young but I will take care of you and our baby" he cooed.
I smile and wrap my arms around his neck, kissing him passionately. We pull away and he smiles, "I bet it's gonna be a girl" he insists. I roll my eyes and laugh at how excited he is to have a baby.
