How I Could Just Kill a Man

"Not again!" Billie thought to herself as she ran into the washroom and slammed the door behind her. She started vomiting into the toilet. Once she was done she sat up against the wall and put her hand against her head. She had bought a pregnancy test a few days ago, but still hasn't taken it because she was worried about the results. She got drunk at P3 a few months ago and had a one night stand with a guy she's met there a few times. She hasn't seen him since because he had left to go back in the Army to fight in the war.

"Billie…" Phoebe knocked on the door. "Piper made some breakfast, you want some?"

"Yeah, I'll be down in a sec." Billie replied and stood up. She walked over to the sink and washed her face, then grabbed a face cloth and dried it. She stared at herself in the mirror. She had bags under her eyes and was quite pale.

She walked down the stairs and entered the kitchen. She didn't say anything she just sat down next to Paige at the table.

"Hey sleepy head, are you feeling okay? You're pale." Piper asked as she poured her some orange juice.

"Yeah, fine." She replied.

Billie hasn't told anyone how she was feeling, or that she might be pregnant. She feels ashamed of herself because she's so young.

"Want some?" Phoebe asked Billie holding a plate full of pancakes.

"Huh?" Billie said as she snapped out of her day dream.

"Do you want some pancakes?" Phoebe asked again looking at her strangely.

"No thanks." Billie shook her head.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Paige asked "You're acting kind of weird."

Billie flashed a fake smile and replied, "Yeah, I'm fine just tired. I better get ready for school." She stood up and went upstairs.

Piper, Phoebe and Paige just stared at each other, and then just shrugged it off.

Later that night they decided to watch a movie so they all piled up on the couches in the living room.

"What movie did you rent Pheebs?" Paige asked.

"Knocked Up! I've wanted to see this movie for awhile, I heard it was good!" She said putting it in the DVD player. Billie could feel her heart pounding in her chest. Piper walked in with a bowl of popcorn. The smell of the butter was making Billie sick to her stomach. She stood up and told them she'd be right back. She could feel her heart racing.

"You're going to miss the movie!" Paige told Billie.

She started touching her forehead wiping some sweat off, "Uhh, its okay just start it without me." She said running up the stairs. She ran into the washroom for the third time that day and started to vomit. She stood up and held the corners of the sink and looked into the mirror. She looked down into the sink, turned on the water and washed her face. She walked quietly out of the washroom and into her bedroom. She opened her drawer in her nightstand and grabbed the test and walked into the washroom and locked the door. She opened the test and took a deep breath.

"That was weird." Piper said to her sisters.

"Yeah, I think I'll go check and see if she's okay." Phoebe said standing up and walking up the stairs. She knocked on the bathroom door.

"Billie is everything okay in there?"

She heard sniffling. She tried to open the door but it was locked.

"Billie open the door, you're worrying me sweetie."

Billie quickly stood up and dried her tears and tried to shake it off. She opened the door and went to the sink and turned the tap on and washed her hands. Phoebe walked in and stood beside Billie and looked her in the eyes. Billie turned the water off and walked passed Phoebe and dried her hands on a towel. Phoebe turned around and looked at her.

"Were you crying?" Phoebe asked. Billie didn't look at her or move. Phoebe walked up behind her and put her hand on her back.

"Billie?"

She turned around and burst into tears in front of Phoebe. Billie put her hands on her face as tears were falling. Phoebe grabbed her and hugged her tightly and just let her cry for a minute. Phoebe patted her back then pushed her off her chest. She held her arms and looked at her. Billie still wouldn't make eye contact.

"Billie, talk to me. Tell me what's wrong so I can help you." Phoebe said concerned. Billie shook her head.

"I can't." Billie whispered.

"You can. I promise you can trust me."

Billie looked up into Phoebe's eyes, and then she closed her eyes lightly as a tear fell.

"I'm having a baby." She whispered and started sobbing. Phoebe was completely shocked and taken off guard.

"Oh my gosh. Are you sure? Is your period late?" Phoebe asked. Billie nodded.

"Come here sweetie." Phoebe said holding her arms out. Billie walked towards her and cried on her shoulder.

"I'm so scared Phoebe!" She said weeping.

"I know honey." She replied rubbing the back of her head.

"What is going on up there? They're missing the whole movie!" Piper asked Paige.

Paige shrugged, "Let's go see…" she said pausing the movie. They both walked up the stairs and heard crying coming from the washroom. Piper walked in first with Paige not far behind.

"What's going on?" Piper asked watching Phoebe comfort Billie. Phoebe looked up at her sisters, then back down to Billie.

"I think you should tell them." Phoebe told her. Billie stood up straight and wiped her tears away. She looked towards Paige and Piper and silently stood there.

"It's okay." Phoebe said placing her hand on her back.

"I'm pregnant." Billie said ashamed.

"You're pregnant!?" Paige repeated.

Billie nodded shamefully "Yeah."

"Are you sure?" Piper asked. Billie nodded, "I took a test and it was positive." She replied wiping some more tears.

"Have you seen a doctor? It could be a false positive- I mean it's rare but possible." Piper said.

"No yet."

"See you don't know 100% yet. Don't work yourself up unless you know for sure."

"Yeah, and you could just be late from being so stressed about this." Phoebe added. "I'll get you an appointment with my gynecologist tomorrow and we'll take you in. For now I want you to go get some rest okay? It'll be alright, I promise."

Billie nodded, "Thanks." and left the room.

"Holy crap I can't believe it!" Paige whispered so Billie wouldn't hear.

"I know either can I." Phoebe said placing her hand on her forehead.

"I mean how could this happen, she doesn't even have a boyfriend!" Paige said.

"Paige, you don't need a boyfriend to get pregnant!" Piper said sarcastically. Paige glared at her and Piper laughed.

"You guys, she needs us right now." Phoebe said.

"I know I just can't believe it." Paige added.
