Hiccup helped me get my stuff into the tiny suit cases that were collecting dust and he shoved them into the back of the car. He helped me get my chameleon back in its cage and get it to the passenger seat. When I got in the car I lowered the window and slid the engagement ring off my finger. When I placed it in his hands he looked at me with eyes that made me break.

"Don't-Just…I love you, ok? I don't want to see you get hurt." he took the ring and shoved it in his pocket

"I'll give you a call when I get there."

"Okay. Be safe, I guess."

I nodded and drove off. I sped up because I couldn't wait to see Eugene again. As I drove I thought about hiccup and how hurt he must be. What can I do? I didn't love the guy. But still, he really loved me and cared for me. my thoughts were rudely interrupted by the feeling of nausea and dizziness. I pulled my car to the side of the road and got off the car. The second my foot touched solid ground I threw up all over the right side of the road. I hunched over in pain and continued to barf my lungs out until a man stopped behind me and helped me back up.

"Hey lady, are you okay?"

"I'm fine…I'm fine…" I said in between gasps of air

"You don't look to hot."

"I'm okay. Really."

I heard footsteps approach me. I lifted my head and I saw a tall man with blonde hair.

"…Hi?" I said, my arms wrapped around my stomach

"The name's Tony." He said, offering me his hand

"Hey Tony." I said as I struggled to get on my feet

He grabbed my elbow and hoisted me up. He balanced me off and wiped a piece of hair out of my face.

"Thanks Tony but I really gotta go."

"Are you sure you're okay? I got some tums in the car if you…"

"I said I'm fine." I said impatiently

The man shrugged and walked off. Before he got in his car he told me to feel better. When he turned his car and left I got back in the car and made a huge mess in the front seat.

"Mother fucker." I said under my breath

I picked my hair up in a short pony tail and drove again, slowly. What the hell is up with me? I looked in the mirror and I looked perfectly fine. i felt my breakfast creeping back up and I stopped in the nearest gas station. As I got there I ran to the bathroom, unaware that I left the door wide open. I crouched on top of the toilet and threw up. I felt someone get behind me and hold my hair. For the time I didn't even care if it was the god damn Stabbingtons. Five minutes of torture later I slid off the toilet and sat on the dirty tile floor. When I looked up there was a young girl about 16 years old who was looking at me with sad eyes. She had really red hair and blue eyes. Her hair was pulled back in a blue bow and she was wearing a short green skirt and a short purple top.

"Hey." She said, twirling her fingers.

"Hi. I'm so sorry. Do you work here? Ill clean it up."

"It's fine, really. How are you feeling?" she crouched down and held a hand to my forehead. This girl obviously had no clue about personal boundaries. But she seemed nice.

"I'm fine." I said, fixing my hair

"I'm Ariel. What's your name?" she said with a big smile

"Rapunzel."

"Nice to meet you, Rapunzel. I got some hot tea in the microwave if you want."

"That'll be lovely." I said, taking in a deep breath

"I know how it feels. Being a teen mom and suffering through all this pain."

"What? Oh, please. I'm NOT pregnant."

" That's what I thought too."

"You are like 16…how could you already have a baby?"

"17…and I had sex. Simple as that."

"That's one way to put it." I said as I hoisted myself up.

"How long has it been?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, how far along are you?"

"I told you I'm not pregnant!"

She shrugged and led me to the bar in front of the cash register. She passed me the cup of tea and leaned over the cash register in front of me.

"So you already had your first kid?"

"Yea. She's only a few months though."

"A girl, huh?" I smiled

"Yea. Her name is melody." She smiled back

"How's the dad?" I said hesitantly

"He's good, I guess." She said, fiddling with her hair and looking down

"He's never there, is he?"

"He never was. As soon as he found out I was pregnant he left me. I don't even know where he is."

"What's his name?"

"Eric…Eric Jones."

"Sounds like a trouble maker."

"He was." she said, sighing deeply, looking out into space

"That's how you got into this whole mess, huh?"

"Oooh yea. One day we were just talking after school. JUST talking. Until he started saying things I wanted to hear and I don't know…I think he got the best of me and I let it happen."

"I know where you're coming from." I said, taking a sip of tea

"What's the story with your guy?"

"Mine?"

"Yea." She said, moving closer

"Well…he knocked some girl up while we were engaged and I broke it off. I lived with someone else for a while and I broke up with him so I can get back with this guy. I was on my way until I just started feeling nauseas and I pulled up to the side of the road and started throwing up."

"So you're on your way to see him now?"

"Well, I was."

"Come with me."

She grabbed me by the elbow and started walking me out the gas station. She grabbed 5 plastic bags, her leather jacket, and her keys.

"Where does he live?" she said as she zipped up her jacket

"Corona."

"We'll make it there in about an hour."

"It's almost 3 hours away."

"I'm a really fast driver."

"What if I get dizzy?"

"That's why I got these." She held up the plastic bags

Caught up in the heat of the moment, I shuffled off with my newly made friend and dashed to my old little town. As we were driving I threw up a total of 3 times. I didn't care though. The only thing that was on my mind was Eugene. I was so excited to see him again and just hold him close and never let go. Ariel was right. We did arrive at corona an hour after. I made Ariel park in front of the old pub and I got off the car, hoping to see Eugene. As I opened the door the whole place was empty. Not a soul was in there. I called out for hook and vlad but no answer. None of the regulars were sitting at the bar. The place was empty. I raised an eyebrow and got in the car. Ariel looked confused and I gave her the address to Eugene's old apartment. As we were driving I saw one of the regulars walking down the street. His name was Jake.

"Jake!"

"Punz! Haven't seen you in a while, kiddo. What have you been up to?"

"Oh you know, here and there. Listen, have you seen Eugene?"

"Eugene?"

"Flynn…Flynn Rider?"

"He must be at Joe's. If not I think you can find him at the park with his daughter."

"Thanks, Jake."

"Any time, sweetie."

Without skipping a beat, Ariel put her car in drive and started looking for Joe's diner.

"This guy is quite the mover, huh?" she giggled.

"I guess. Oh! Ariel there he is! Stop the car!"

As I got out of the car I saw Eugene smoking a cigarette outside of the diner. When I walked closer he lifted his head up to see me through his glasses. I saw him smile and put out the cigarette on his fries.

"Well, well, well…" he said, putting his hands in his pockets.

I smiled and started running towards him. He smiled back and grabbed me by the waist, hoisting me up

and wrapping his arms around me.

"You came back." he whispered

"Of course I came back." I smiled

He put me down and examined me. Without uttering a single word he got on one knee.

"Rapunzel…will you-"

"Yes!"

I lunged myself to him and cried. He grabbed my hand and kissed it.

"I knew you would come back."

"Why wouldn't I?"

We were in our own little world for about 30 seconds until Ariel interrupted from her car, coughing obnoxiously.

"What?" I spat out

"Well, aren't you going to tell him?"

"Tell me what?" Eugene said, rubbing my back and smiling

"Well, she's pregnant of course!" Ariel said with a smile on her face

I saw Eugene's eyes twitch at the word "pregnant". He backed away and with a shaky hand he took out a cigarette and lit it up, accidently dropping the lighter.

"Ariel! I told you, I'm not pregnant!" I shouted

I turned to see Eugene who was now on the floor, the cigarette still lit and dangling out of the corner of his mouth.

"Eugene? Eugene, baby, are you okay? Eugene!"

No response. I bought an iced cold cup of water at Joe's and splashed him in the face. two seconds later his eyes opened wide. He sat up and ran his hand through my short brown hair.

"Punz?"

"Yes, Eugene. It's me. Are you okay?"

"I'm f-f-fine."

"What's wrong?"

"Well, y-you're pregnant!" he said, making a hand gesture at my belly

"I am NOT pregnant! That's it, get up."

"What?"

"Get up! We're going to the drug store."

I dragged him up from the floor and got in Ariel's car. We drove about 3 miles till we arrived at the old drug store downtown. I got off the car by myself and went into the store. I bought a pregnancy test and some chips that I was craving. When I got in the car I demanded Ariel to drive to Eugene's apartment a mile down. When we got into the apartment I noticed everything has changed. Eugene's living room was now cluttered with toys and Barbie dolls. There was a Disney princess plate with left-over food sitting on the dining room table. The one bed Eugene has was a knot of Eugene's normal black comforter and a blanket of Dora the explorer. When I ran into the bathroom there were two toothbrushes. A normal red one and a small pink tooth brush. I got on the toilet and took out one of the tests. I waited for a couple of minutes and took a peek.

Positive. The test was positive.
