A/N: I know it's in Sam's POV a lot, it will change more as the story progresses.
~~~~~~~~~~Sam's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~
No.
Nope this wasn't happening; obviously it was just a day or two behind, that's happened before.
Just not lately…
I took a few deep breaths; I couldn't have a meltdown in class. I probably wasn't anyway; this was probably just a coincidence. I simple mistake, a judgment of mind.
Why all the big words?
"Sam? Sam?" I look over at Mandy, the girl who knocked me from my daydream.
"Yeah? I asked.
"The bell rang, are you OK?" That's when I noticed that I was the only person here besides her. I nodded in reply to her question, and she left. I was all alone.
My hand rested on my stomach.
At least I hoped I was.
~~~~~~~~One week later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After a week of panic and lying to myself, I had to admit to truth.
Aunt Flow wasn't coming.
But that could mean anything; maybe I just ate too much ham.
I like you a lot Benson, almost as much as I like ham.
He laughed, kissed me.
We were both idiots.
"Stupid Carly, stupid Ryan, stupid party, stupid punch." I mumble under my breath.
I need one of those tests. The ones that you pee on and show a plus or minus sign.
But I couldn't bear to go to the pharmacy. People knew me there. I could lie; say the test was for Carly.
Even I had to laugh at that one.
I approached Carly's building, had Lewbert yell at me, and then approached her door.
Knock Knock Knock
No answer. Maybe she wasn't home. Then I wouldn't have to go through with this maybe I-.
The sound of a door opening cut off my thoughts.
"Oh, hey Sam." She greeted me with a smile and let me in.
"So here for our ham?"
I looked at her and shook my head no. "Not hungry."
Her smile faded.
"Is something wrong?" she asked, seating me on her couch.
I'm quiet for a while, Carly waits, patient as always.
"Remember Ryan's party?" I asked, avoiding eye contact.
She nods, unsure where this is going.
"Remember how I said I had a hangover, and Freddie stayed to watch me?"
Nodding again.
"I lied."
She's silent for a second, before coming to a blank. "What do you mean? What really happened?"
"I got drunk, but so did Freddie." I sigh and suck in my gut, "We woke up in bed together. I-I think we did it. I know we did."
"Sam, oh my god! I- why- were you-" she paused for a moment collecting her thoughts, " are you okay? Do you blame me? Please don't! Why did you choose now to tell me?"
I sighed, holding back the tears that were begging to fall. "I don't blame you Carls, I told you because," deep breath, sigh "I'm late" the tears were falling now as I looked away from my lap and into her eyes. "I've never felt so scared."
Her jaw drops.
Silence.
"Did you get a test yet?"
I shook my head no. "I can't face those people, I know them I-"
"Then we'll take the bus somewhere far away where we don't know people, we'll even wear those old wigs from the wig bit."
I nod and smile.
On the bus Carly explains about false positives/ false negatives. She tells me to buy about three tests.
Crap!
"Umm I only brought ten bucks."
She laughs, "I thought you were flat broke, so I brought money."
"Damn! Could've kept the ten all to myself and bought ham! Ma Ma loves her ham!"
I just called myself Ma Ma.
Irony.
I buy a Clearblue, a First Response, and a pharmacy brand test. I also buy a Gatorade.
I put the tests in my pocket, and begin chugging.
Then I wait till I have to pee.
I'm jumping up and down in the line for the bathroom now. I get in, and take the tests. The few minutes it takes to process seem like an eternity. I glance at the watch Carly lent me.
Times up.
I glance.
Three big, bold, red plus signs stare back.
Again kinda short
Sowwy!!!!!!!!!
