OK im done enjoy!
"So...How was your date last night with Shane?" Tess asked.
"Yeah", Peggy joined in. "You never told us last night...actually...you never even came back to our cabin last night."
Mitchie blushed. She usually had no problem telling her friends about her dates with Shane. And it was true; she had never come back to the cabin last night. She was in somebody else's...
"Come on!" Tess said. "It's not like anyone is listening through the window." Mitchie looked doubtfully around their cabin at all the open windows. Of course, there was no air conditioning in the cabins so to let in a little air, the windows were always open. Tess sighed.
"Oh please!" Ella yelled exasperatedly. "We're just going to find out anyway."
"I don't know..." Mitchie said. "I'd rather keep the details of this date...private." She smiled, thinking of all the reasons why it was so private.
Ella, Peggy, and Tess looked at each other in awe. "You didn't..." Peggy whispered.
Mitchie looked at her friends with her big brown eyes. A new smile began to creep its way onto her face. "Oh but we did!" Mitchie exclaimed. The 4 girls hugged each other and jumped up and down, squealing with delight. While Ella went to go shut all the windows, Mitchie, Tess, and Peggy flopped down on Mitchie's bed to hear more about her 'private' date with Shane. Mitchie only went as far as she wanted to. She wanted to keep some of the memories to herself...like Shane's fingers knotting in her hair...his heart beating so close to hers...the sheets all tangled up on the floor...waking up to Shane's face...
"Well", Tess began. "We all knew it was going to happen someday."
"What?" Mitchie asked. "That I was going to lose my virginity?"
"No", Tess said. "That you and Shane were going to...you know..."
The girls giggled; then they all heard the loud clanging of the lunch bell.
As Mitchie was walking down to the mess hall, her best friend, Caitlyn, ran up to her and hit her lightly on the shoulder. "Hey, I didn't see you at breakfast", Caitlyn remarked.
"Well, I was just-" Mitchie began but she was cut off by Caitlyn.
"Wow! You have this really nice...glow about you today," Caitlyn said. Mitchie tried to hide behind her dark curtain of hair but it was no use. "Did you guys give each other facials in the cabin again?" Caitlyn asked. Mitchie nodded and managed a weak smile. But her smile soon turned into a wide grin when she thought about the real reason why she was glowing. Caitlyn looked at her suspiciously. Then suddenly it dawned on her. Caitlyn stopped Mitchie in her tracks and pulled her behind a tree.
"You didn't get a facial at all, did you?" Caitlyn whispered.
"What are you talking about?" Mitchie whispered back. "Of course I got a...a facial."
"Mitchie," Caitlyn began. "You are a REALLY bad liar. I don't know how you pulled it off the first year you were here."
Mitchie laughed. She loved how Caitlyn knew her so well. "OK...no I didn't get a facial last night...but I'll give you one if you can guess why I'm glowing-"
"You finally slept with Shane," Caitlyn said bluntly.
"Shhh! And...great. Now I owe you a facial."
That evening, Mitchie sat on a bench watching the sunset over the lake. She used to sit here every night to watch the sun dip below the horizon. But sometimes traditions are hard to follow, so whenever she got the chance, Mitchie would come to watch the sunset. The lake also reminded her of Shane and all the canoe rides they had taken. They always had the best times out on the lake... In fact just last night they had been on the lake in a canoe... They had just made it to the cabin when the first shirt dropped off. Mitchie smiled to herself. It had been hers. It was easy to take off... Shane didn't care much for looks so for their date Mitchie just threw on an old button down shirt and a cute skirt. The 2 easiest things for someone to take off...
"Hey beautiful," a deep voice said in Mitchie's ear. Mitchie jumped and turned around in her seat. She found herself looking into Shane's hazel eyes. She was about to say 'Hey handsome' back when she was cut off by Shane's lips. She loved the way they felt; so soft and gentle against hers. The kiss became extremely passionate, but before Shane could fall over the back of the bench, Mitchie pulled away. Shane crossed over to the other side of the bench to sit next to his girlfriend of 3 years. He took her hand and gazed at the sky. It was painted with streaks of pink and orange; the sun was now a giant orb of orange light setting over the pine trees across the lake. Mitchie rested her head on Shane's shoulder.
"It's beautiful," Mitchie whispered.
"It sure is," Shane replied. "But then I look at you"-he looked into Mitchie's deep brown eyes-"and everything just pales in comparison." He pulled her face up to his and locked his lips onto hers.
"This is too perfect," Mitchie said. "It feels like...we're on a magic carpet and that, without warning, it's just going to be snatched out from under us."
"Don't think like that," Shane said. "Just enjoy the moment."
"You know..." Mitchie began. "It is wonderful here...but I could think of another way to enjoy the moment..." That was all she needed to say. Shane and Mitchie practically sprinted back to Shane's cabin, hand in hand, secretly thinking of ways to enjoy the next few moments...
1 month later
Mitchie handed the green bowl over to Caitlyn and asked, "Can you please get me some more strawberries?"
"NO!" Caitlyn yelled. "That's the 17th bowl you've eaten this week! And it's only Tuesday! Your mom needs those strawberries to make her famous strawberry milkshakes."
"Those milkshakes are good aren't they?" Mitchie said. "Hey now that you mention it could you get me one of those instead?"
Caitlyn shook her head and sat down on the edge of Mitchie's bed. "What is up with you? You've never been like this. I mean, sure you liked strawberries before...but this obsession is definitely new." Mitchie shrugged. She didn't see anything wrong with eating strawberries. But even she had to admit that there was something wrong with the way she'd been eating.
"Fine," Mitchie said quietly. "I'll stop." Caitlyn stood up with a satisfied smile on her face. "But Caitlyn..." Mitchie began.
"Yeah?"
"Just...one more bowl of strawberries. Please?"
Caitlyn sighed and walked out the door to the kitchen.
The next morning
Mitchie knelt over the toilet while last night's hamburgers made a special reappearance. Tess, Peggy, and Ella came rushing into the bathroom. Tess bent down next to Mitchie and held her hair out of the way until Mitchie stopped.
"Mitchie!" Peggy said. "What's wrong? You've been throwing up almost every morning these past couple of weeks."
"I probably just ate something that didn't agree with my stomach," Mitchie said in a raspy voice. "It's nothing to be worried about." But it was, as Mitchie bent back over the toilet to retch.
"Ella! Peggy!" Tess commanded. "Go get Brown and Connie."
"No..." Mitchie began to protest. "Don't wake them up so early." But Ella and Peggy just raced through the cabin door without hearing a word Mitchie said.
Tess looked back at her friend. She had to be open with her. Tess had been in this same position a couple of years ago. Tess had gotten an abortion, though. She still had nightmares about what her abusive boyfriend did when he found out she was pregnant. Tess was not one to kill someone who didn't even have a chance to live. But the more she resisted, the more she was beaten. Not wanting to be hurt or risk hurting her baby anymore, Tess took the easier way out. Now, she had to help her friend through these difficult times. "Mitchie..." Tess began. "I don't think it was something you ate. I think...I think you might be pregnant."
"WHAT?" Mitchie tried to yell. "I...I can't be."
"Actually, Mitchie, you can," Tess explained. "The morning sickness, the weird cravings..." Tess opened the cabinet underneath the sink and took out a box of tampons. "When was the last time you had your period?"
"About 2 months ago," Mitchie whispered in a hoarse voice. All the pieces fit. Maybe she was pregnant. Maybe she really was carrying Shane's child. But it couldn't be. They had been so careful. They had used protection every time... Except for the first time. Mitchie's head dropped into her hands. "Tess I think you're right," Mitchie said. "But how can I know for sure?"
Tess took Mitchie's hand and led her to her bed. She reached under the mattress and took out her first aid kit. Tess opened it and gave Mitchie five sticks. Pregnancy tests.
"Why do you have pregnancy tests in your first aid kit?" Mitchie asked.
"Because I had nowhere else to put them," Tess replied; she smiled.
"No, I meant why do you have them in the first place?"
"What? You don't think Nate and I have our fair share of hook ups? I have to be careful too, you know."
Mitchie smiled. Tess was glad she could make Mitchie finally smile after her life-changing theory. "Here," Tess said gently. "I think you know what to do with these." Tess handed Mitchie the pregnancy tests. Mitchie hugged her and whispered, "Thank you. Wish me luck." Tess smiled and hugged Mitchie even tighter. Mitchie slowly shuffled to the bathroom and the door clicked shut behind her.
Tess then remembered when she had found out she was pregnant.
Tess couldn't believe her eyes. All 5 pregnancy tests had a small blue cross on the end of them. Positive. Tess took a deep breath. She walked out the door to face her boyfriend, Kevin.
"Uh...th-the tests are all...um...well they're all..." Tess stammered.
Kevin stood up from the bed and grabbed Tess by the shoulders. "They're all what? Spit it out already!" he screamed. Tears filled Tess's eyes.
"They're all...positive," Tess whispered. A tear rolled down her cheek. At first Tess saw shock in Kevin's eyes. And then anger. White hot anger. Anger that he was about to act on.
"You little SLUT!" he yelled. Kevin slapped her across the face. Tess fell to the floor and cried out in pain.
"Me?" Tess shouted in disbelief. "I'M the slut? That makes perfect sense since YOU'RE the one who raped me!"
"Shut up!" Kevin yelled. He kicked Tess in the shoulder so hard he dislocated it. "You. Will. Get. Rid. Of. It. Do you understand?" Tess couldn't answer. She lay on the floor curled up in a ball sobbing her eyes out. His hand clenched around a section of her blond locks. "I SAID DO YOU UNDERSTAND?" he screamed again. Tess barely nodded her head. Kevin wrenched Tess up by her hair into a sitting position. "Get up. NOW!" Tess managed to stand up for about 5 seconds until she crumpled back into a ball on the floor. "Useless," he muttered. He stepped on her wrist and stomped out of her room.
Tess stayed rolled up on the floor until the next morning.
Tess was happily interrupted from her thoughts by a loud knocking on the door. "Tess! Mitchie!" Tess heard Connie's voice through the door.
"Come in!" she yelled. Connie, Brown, Ella and Peggy came bursting through the cabin door.
"Where's Mitchie?" Brown asked in his distinct Australian accent. Tess gestured to the bathroom.
The next 10 minutes passed in silence. Ella and Peggy were worried that Mitchie might be pregnant. Tess was worrying about what Shane would do once he found out about her...condition. Brown was worried that Mitchie had a stomach virus and Connie was worrying about the fact that if she was indeed sick that she might have to spend time in the infirmary; and she knew Mitchie hated to be around sick people. Worry, worry, worry. That was the only thing that was on everyone's mind. All different reasons...all about the same person.
Finally, the bathroom door opened. Mitchie walked out of the bathroom with tear stained cheeks. "Tess," she began in a shaky voice. "You were right. They're all positive."
