A/N: Wow, I actually remembered the disclaimer! Anyway, Inspiration has yet again struck. The story takes place about 2 weeks after the arrival back into the United States. Hope you like it, reviews please!
Katey walked out of the bathroom holding her stomach. She had been throwing up every morning for the past week. Her body felt so different. Maybe it's heart break. Maybe I just miss Javier so much that I'm making myself sick.
"Katey," Jeannie called from downstairs, "I made you an appointment with Doctor Phillip. You're going to have to miss school again."
"Okay, Mother," Katey yelled down the steps as she wandered back to the room she shared with Susie to get dressed.
Susie was sitting at the vanity brushing her hair. "You okay?"
"No, I feel like crap," Katey said, pulling on a loose fitting dress. "I've been vomiting every morning since we got back, I've gained weight, I've…"
Susie just stared at Katey's gaping mouth. They knew that they were both thinking the same thing. Maybe spending that glorious night in the tent with Javier wasn't such a good idea after all…
The thought of this ran through Katey's head. She knew her parents wouldn't take this very well if she was right… which she hoped she wasn't.
Susie and Katey piled into Jeannie's car. After dropping Susie off at school, Jeannie drove Katey to the doctor's office. After waiting for hours, a nurse finally called her name.
"Katherine Miller, the doctor will see you now," Nurse Louise called, ushering her into a room.
Doctor Phillip came in and began asking Katey questions about how she was feeling. Katey told him about the sickness every morning, her sudden weight gain, how different she had been feeling, and most importantly, that she was late.
"Ah, a simple test will prove what is going on," Dr. Phillip replied with a smile.
Katey did as the doctor told her.
"I'll get back to you with those results in a few days."
"Thank you," Jeannie replied.
Katey had no clue what those tests were for. Jeannie didn't either, but she was completely oblivious to what Katey was expecting. Although Katey was pretty sure of what it was, she was praying to God that it was a test for Leukemia or some sort of horrible disease and she didn't have it.
Three days had passed and Katey continued to vomit every morning, yet she was well enough to attend school. She tried to eat better as to not gain any more weight.
One day during dinner, the phone rang. Bert was working late that night, so Jeannie, Katey, and Susie are alone.
"I'll get it," Susie offered, standing up,
"Hello? No, this is Susie. Sure, just a second," Susie pulled the phone away from her ear. "Mom, it's for you, it's the doctor."
Jeannie stood up and walked to the phone. She entered the other room so Katey and Susie couldn't hear.
The sisters looked at each other with a look of worry on their faces. They continued to eat, as nothing was the matter. After a few minutes, Jeannie came back into the room.
"Susie, please go to your room," Jeannie said, flustered.
"Yes, Mother," she stood up and walked out of the room.
Katey looked at her mother and took a deep breath, "What's the matter? Am I sick?"
"Katey, you're pregnant."
