Susan's POV
I was home alone. Peter had gone to take Edmund to rugby practice and mum had taken Lucy to her dance class. It was summer, but I had been feeling sick since we came back from Narnia, even if it had only been a month. Today I had been feeling sicker than any other day, though. I had a feeling that I knew what was wrong with me, but I was too scared to find out. Still, I was going to be alone for at least half an hour, so maybe today was going to be the day that I found out. I decided that I would do it. So I got up from the couch and walked into the bathroom. I hesitantly grabbed one of the pregnancy tests that mum hid in her medicine cabinet for unknown reasons. I tried it and waited. I was scared to see the answer. Finally, I mustered up the courage to look at it. It said positive.
I stuffed it at the bottom of the trash can, so that no one would be able to find or see it. I knew it was Caspian's child, but he would just never be able to know unless we went back to Narnia. I knew that Peter would be back in a few minutes, but I didn't want him to be the first one I told this to. I knew he would be dissatisfied with me. I didn't know who I wanted to tell first. I was sitting on the couch again, with my head in my hands, crying. Then, I heard the door open and shut.
"Susan?" It was Peter's voice. "Are you alright?"
I felt his hand on my back, making soothing motions.
"Not really" I said, still crying.
"What's wrong?" He asked me
"I... can't tell you" I said, sniffling
"Su" he said, with his hand pulling my chin to look at him, until my eyes met his. "You know you can tell me anything."
I continued to cry.
"Not this" I said as I stood up and ran upstairs to my room.
I layed on my bed and continued to sob for a few minutes more. Then I heard a knock on my door.
"Susan, are you alright, dear?" it was mum's voice.
I didn't respond.
"Can I come in?" She asked
"Yes, mum" I said
She came into my room, walked over to my bed, and sat down.
"What were you crying about, Susan?" She asked me
"Mum...I..." I said, not being able to continue
"Yes?" She said, patiently
"I... I made a mistake" I said "A big mistake"
"Oh, Susan, I'm sure it wasn't that bad" She said "What's wrong?"
"Mum, I'm... I'm pregnant" I said, as I started crying again
"Oh, honey, don't cry" She said
"Y..you're not mad at me?" I asked
"Of course not" She said " Peter already will be, so I don't want to give you twice as much trouble."
"Have you told anyone else yet" She asked me
"No, I only found out today" I told her
"You're going to have to tell Peter sometime, you know, sweetie" She told me
"I know, I'm just not ready to tell him yet" I said
"I can tell him for you, if you'd like" she said
"No, I'll be alright telling him myself" I told her
"Alright, but promise me that you'll tell him before you start to show" she said
"Yes mum, I promise" I said
"Thank you, Susan" she said "now, you should try and get some rest"
"Alright, mum" I said
Then, she left me, alone with my thoughts. How I supposed to tell Peter that I was pregnant? What was he going to do? How was I going to tell anyone? I mean, I'm an unwed pregnant 15 year old. How would everybody react to that? I didn't want to tell anybody. I had just stopped everyone from bullying me, as soon as anybody from school knew I was pregnant, the bullying would start up again. How was I supposed to tell Lucy and Edmund that I was pregnant? Oh, Aslan, please help me.
If mum was home... then that meant Lucy was home! I could tell her. So I ran out of my room, down the stairs, and into the kitchen. Lucy wasn't there, but Peter was.
"Do you know where Lucy is?" I asked him
"She's in the backyard" he said "Why?"
"I need to tell her something" I said, as I started to run towards the backdoor. I saw Lucy sitting on one of the rocking chairs we had outside, reading a book. I stepped outside.
"Lucy?" I said
"Yes, Su?" She said
"I have something to tell you" I said
"What is it?" She asked
"I-I... I'm pregnant" I told her
She looked stunned for a second.
"Really?" She said, a smile spreading across her face.
"Yes" I said
She came over to me and hugged me. After a few moments, she let go.
"But, who's the father?" She asked
"Caspian" I said, sadly "He'll never be able to know, unless we go back"
"Oh, Su" she said "cheer up, you're going to be a mother"
"Have you told Peter yet?" She asked me
"No" I told her "I'm afraid to know what he would say"
"I could tell him for you if you want me to" she said
"That's very sweet of you, Lucy, but I need to tell him myself" I said
"Alright" she said and walked back inside, leaving me alone outside.
