Anything recognizable belongs to Degrassi, the plot though is mine

At long last the final bell rang, signaling the end of the day. Maya bolted out of her seat and made her way towards her locker. She inputted her combination and stuffed what she needed into her bag before locking it again.

"Hey M" Cam greeted causing Maya to jump.

"Oh, hey you scared me"

"Sorry" Cam said giving Maya a quick kiss "You ok? You seem a bit distracted today"

"Wha… Yeah I'm fine" Maya replied "I just got to go."

"What's the rush?" Cam asked.

"I promised Tori that we could go shopping today and you know how she gets"

"Oh that sounds like fun." Cam replied "Well, you want to hang out later tonight then?"

"Um, I'll have to see, I might just stay at Tori's tonight if we get back late" Maya answered him "I'll call you later though, I promise"

"Ok talk to you later then" Cam answered.

Maya gave Cam a quick kiss, and then made her way out of the school before anyone else saw her. She felt bad for lying to Cam, in the seven months they've been dating they've been dating Maya has never once lied to him. Today though there was something she needed to do, and she didn't want Cam know what she was about to do.

Maya went into the first drug store she passed on her way home, and with her face turning red, she made her way towards the back of the store. As she picked out a pregnancy test, Maya could feel her face burning. After a few more minutes, Maya finally picked a test. She hid the test as best as she could while quickly making her way up to the cash register. Making sure she didn't see anybody she recognized, Maya placed the test upon the counter. An elderly lady was the one manning the counter and looked very judgmental once she saw my purchase.

"A bit young to be buying this aren't you?" she said ringing it up. "I mean you can't be more than 13 or 14?"

"15" Maya told her feeling more embarrassed.

"Glad you're not my child, if you were you'd be out of my house right away" She went on giving me a look of disapproval.

Biting her tongue, Maya paid the lady and stuffed the test into her bag. She already felt stupid for this, did that lady really need to make her feel worse. Plus, the lady didn't even know her, what gave her the right to give her opinion on Maya's life. Maya just hid the test in her bag, and then leaving the store before she said something she would regret.

After another ten minute walk, Maya reached her house. With the door unlocked Maya made her way inside, where her mother greeted her.

"Hey Maya" her mom said cheerfully "How was your day?"

"Uh, fine" Maya replied surprised to see her mom there "I thought you and dad were leaving for the weekend?"

"We're leaving in a couple minutes" My mom answered "Trying to get rid of us or something?"

"No" Maya answered a little too quickly, and her mom gave her a questioning look.

"Mmhmmm" she said "Anyways you know the rules, no parties and no boys. I left the number to the hotel on the fridge and here's some money for food. If you want you could always invite Tori over so you're not alone"

"I know, it's not the first time you've left me home alone mom, I'll be fine" Maya said thinking of the test in her bag.

"I know you will but I still worry" Mayas mom said.

"You ready to go honey?" My dad said as he came down the stairs.

"Yeah, Love you Maya." Her mom said placing a kiss on her head.

"Behave kiddo and don't forget to lock the door" Maya's dad said, then followed her mom out of the house.

Maya waited until she heard the car pulling out of the driveway before locking the door and running upstairs and into her bathroom. Thankfully, Katie was off to college so she didn't have to share the bathroom and worry about her sister walking in on her. Maya took the test, placed it on the counter, and set her phone to go off in two minutes.

It was the most nerve wracking time of her life. Maya didn't even want to take the test but she knew she had to find out. She was over two weeks late, and had been feeling slightly off for the last few weeks.

After a painstakingly long time, the timer on her phone finally went off. Taking a deep breath to try and calm herself, Maya made her way over to the test. With shaking fingers she picked it up, and saw the one thing that she didn't want to see.

It was positive.
