Ronnie woke in a sweat trying not to move the rest of her body she gently turned on her bedside lamp the sudden light hurt her barely open eyes. She looked towards her clock it read 4.30. This had been the third day in a row she had woken this early, she sat up slowly and instantly her stomach flipped, nauseated she jumped out of her comfy bed and ran to the bathroom. There she was sick, it was like an action replay of yesterday morning. She didn't know what was wrong with her, she wasn't eating much because she had almost completely lost her appetite in the last week but still she managed to throw up every morning. After sighing at her pale reflection in the mirror Ronnie made her way back to bed.

Ronnie awoke 3 hours later to the sound of her mum and dad arguing. She lay in bed for a few minutes listening, she jumped to the sound of a little tap on the door.

"Ronnie?! Can I borrow your make up please!" Roxy asked giving up on knocking and instead barging into Ronnie's room.

"Don't be silly! You're too young to wear make up.."Ronnie answered.

"I'm not much younger then you!!" Roxy huffed.

"Yeah well Dad wouldn't be happy if I let you wear make up so how about I lend you my pink hair clips" Ronnie reasoned.

"Really? Thanks Ron!" Roxy said happily as she took the clips and left.

30 minutes later both girls were dressed in their school uniforms waiting for their lift to arrive. Roxy was pouring some cereal in a bowl when their mother Glenda entered.

"Morning girls." She said trying to sound happy

"Ronnie are you not having any breakfast?" Glenda quizzed.

"No , I'm just not that hungry" Ronnie shrugged.

Later that day Ronnie was sat in class trying to concentrate, they were about to start a test and Ronnie had no idea what it was even about.

"What date is it Sir? I really can't remember?" A girl asked from the corner of the classroom.

"It's the 10th of January 1989 Gemma" Mr Wilkins answered half sarcastically.

Ronnie's head went into overdrive, was it really the 10th of January. She couldn't focus she just had dates swimming around her head. She realised she'd missed her period twice, suddenly the morning sickness and tiredness began to make sense. Staring into space Ronnie began to panic. Her thoughts were interrupted by Mr Wilkins standing next to her. He bent down to be at Ronnie's eye level.

"Veronica, Is everything OK? You don't look too good"

"No, I feel kind of ill" Ronnie answered hoping he'd take pity on her.

"Why don't you go get some air.." Mr. Wilkins suggested...

After school Ronnie was stood outside talking to her boyfriend Joel. She wanted to tell him about her fear but she couldn't bring herself to get the words out. Suddenly Roxy came over asking Ronnie if she was ready to go.

"No, I'm going to walk home today"Ronnie said.

"What? Why?" Roxy questioned annoyed that her sister was going to abandon her and leave her on her own with Julie Langly and her mum.

"I need some air Rox! Please tell Dad and Mum I had a study group after school." Ronnie begged.

"Fine!" Roxy said walking off in a huff.

"I can walk you home if you like Ron?" Joel offered.

"You've got footie training" Ronnie reminded him "I'll be fine, I just need some time by myself that's all" Ronnie reassured him.

Joel agreed and kissing her cheek he said good bye, leaving Ronnie all alone.

Ronnie stood outside the pharmacy. She was so scared and embarrassed. She didn't want to go in. Finally she plucked up the courage to enter the shop. She slowly walked around and finally came to the aisle she was looking for. As she looked the items up and down she grabbed the one that looked easiest to understand. Before she went to pay she looked around to make sure there was no one she knew around. The shop was virtually empty except for the too cashiers talking behind the tills. Arriving at the till Ronnie handed over the pregnancy testing kit. The cashier looked from the Pregnancy test to the little girl who had just handed it to her, She gave her a little smile, trying to reassure her everything would be OK. Ronnie felt tears come to her eyes as she smiled back.

The next day Ronnie sat in the school toilets staring at the box. She'd been thinking about it all night but didn't dare do the test at home. If her dad found it he'd kill her. Ronnie followed the instructions carefully. She waited 60 seconds and she looked at the result. She sobbed quietly. The stick just confirmed what she already knew, she was pregnant!
