The bathroom was completely silent after Jade revealed her problem to her best friend. Cat sat on the floor in front of the toilet, idly tracing patterns on her cast as she took in the information. Jade sat silently on the closed toilet, her face still buried in her hands as it had been for the past ten minutes. Her mind was racing at a thousand miles per second.

"I don't think you'll get pregnant," Cat whispered, looking up at her best friend.

"But there's a chance that I could," Jade stated, not removing her head from her hands.

Cat sighed, "Are you sure that you didn't use any... y'know..."

Jade huffed out a humourless laugh and nodded, "Oh yeah, everything is back in the RV. And last night wasn't the first time we forgot protection..."

Cat frowned as she tried to think.

"Our first night on the road, when we stopped at that gas station for the night," Jade filled her in.

Cat's eyebrows raised, "I didn't even know."

Jade chuckled, "We were quiet."

"You need to talk to Beck," Cat told her seriously as she stood up to lean against the small sink, stretching out her leg before it became stiff and sore.

"No. No, I can't, Cat," Jade panicked, looking up at the redhead, her eyes wide with worry.

"You have to! He has to know!" Cat insisted.

Just as Jade went to argue back, there was a soft knock at the door - immediately silencing both girls inside the bathroom. "Who's there?" Cat called softly, not wanting to draw any attention to themselves.

"It's Tori, can I come in?" Tori's voice came from the other side of the door.

Jade sighed and buried her head back in her hands defeatedly. Cat took that as a sign to let the brunette inside. She unlocked the door and hurriedly pulled Tori inside before locking the door behind her immediately. Tori frowned in confusion at Cat's actions but then turned and saw Jade. She looked between her friends.

"Is everything okay?" she asked warily.

"Do I look okay?" Jade snapped, not even bothering to look up at the brunette. She then sighed several moments later and brought her head up, "No," she said softly, "Everything is not okay."

Tori frowned and sat down on the floor beside Cat who had reassumed her previous position in front of Jade. "What's wrong?" Tori asked, looking up at Jade with concerned eyes.

Jade opened her mouth to explain but couldn't find the words. She looked at Cat for help, who gladly took over - reaching up and taking Jade's hand in her own small one.

"There's a chance Jade could be pregnant," the redhead whispered, making Jade whimper.

Tori's mouth dropped open and her eyes widened. She was silent for a moment before she finally spoke again, "Beck's?" she confirmed.

Jade's eyes narrowed, "Well duh!" she cried rudely before softening up once again, "Sorry, I'm just freaking," she breathed.

"How did this happen? Y'know, if it has actually happened," Tori asked.

"We forgot to use protection two times in less than a week," Jade sighed, cursing her teenage hormones and stupidity.

"And Beck doesn't know," Tori confirmed.

Jade nodded silently in response, drawing patterns on the back of Cat's hand which she held tightly in her own.

"You need to tell him," Cat whispered again.

Jade sighed, "I know. God, he's going to hate me."

"He can't. He's just as responsible as you are," Tori assured her.

"Do you want us to go get him?" asked Cat.

Jade's heart leapt into her throat and she shook her head quickly, "No. I'll tell him later on. I just... need time."

They nodded in understanding and stood up from the floor as Jade stood from the toilet. She ran her hands over her face before Tori opened the door and they walked out of the tiny bathroom. As they exited, the boys immediately looked over to them - their faces frowning in confusion as they wondered what exactly was going on with the girls.

Jade collapsed back down onto her mattress and pulled the blanket over her body, snuggling into it. She wanted nothing more than to fall asleep and forget about everything for a little while. But as she closed her eyes, she felt another body sit down beside her.

"Hey," a soft voice whispered into her ear, making her wince internally. Her eyes opened and she found her boyfriend's handsome face smiling down at her. "Everything okay?" he asked, stroking her hair away from her face. She just nodded in response, not trusting herself to speak in fear of blurting everything out right away.

Beck moved under the blanket and snuggled up beside her. A small smile appeared on Jade's lips for a split second until one of Beck's large tan hands rest on her stomach as if he already knew. She didn't say anything. She was waiting for the perfect time.

Later on, Jade awoke from her nap and sat up on the mattress, rubbing her eyes tiredly. Beck was lying beside her, wide awake and staring at the ceiling. Jade looked across the basement and found Cat looking at her. The redhead nodded at her best friend, signalling that it was time. Jade knew Cat was right - she had to tell Beck now.

"Can I talk to you?" Jade whispered in her boyfriend's ear. He frowned confusedly but nodded and let her pull him from the mattress and across the room into the bathroom. He leaned against the concrete wall as Jade closed the door and locked it behind them.

"Uh oh, you're not breaking up with me, are you?" he joked lightly with a boyish smile. But that smile disappeared as Jade turned around, revealing her serious face. Beck frowned, "Babe? Is everything okay?"

Jade sighed and felt tears appear in her eyes. Beck's eyebrows knit together and he moved closer to her, resting his hands on her waist, "You're scaring me, baby," he whispered, brushing away a tear as it slipped down her cheek.

This was it. She was about to ruin his life. She was sure of it.

Jade's mouth opened and before she knew it, the words were pouring out.

"I might be pregnant."
