Chapter 10

September 1941

Bonnie smiled in the kiss. They were in a closet at the hospital.

Jake : Let's hope no one needs anything from these shelves.

Bonnie : Shhh you know how paranoid I am.

He chuckled and kissed her neck.

Bonnie : Mmmm she closed her eyes

They heard a noise outside the closet and froze. The person tried to open the

door but they had locked it. The nurse cursed and walked away.

Bonnie : she whispered We need to leave !

Jake : I know. You go first.

She opened the door ajar and checked if the hallway was empty. When the coast

was clear she left the closet quickly. She knew he'd do the same in a few

minutes. She dealed with a few cases and went for a coffee break. She saw Elena.

Bonnie : Hey, you left so fast this morning.

Elena : Yes, I...I have a lot on my mind and I couldn't sleep.

Bonnie : I'm a good listener she took a sip

Elena : I...*she frowned and walked away almost running*

Bonnie : That was weird.

She didn't know if she should wait but another nurse called her for help.


Later

Bonnie : Elena, you're having lunch with me ?

Elena : I'm not hungry but I'll sit with you.

They went to the cafeteria and Bonnie grabbed her lunch before they sat down.

Bonnie : A penny for your thoughts.

Elena : I'm late.

Bonnie : Late as in...

Elena : she lowered her voice I might be pregnant.

Bonnie : Oh wow.

Elena : Being a nurse is making this worse. I know all the signs !

Bonnie : You need to see a doctor to be sure.

Elena : That's not possible. I know all the doctors here and they know I'm not married.

Bonnie : I'm sure Jake would understand.

Elena : I don't know...

Bonnie : Think about it, ok ?


The next day

Jake : So do I have to swear on the bible or... ?

Bonnie : Jake, what am I going to do with you ? You have to be serious !

Elena : Yes you have to ! she crossed her arms

Jake : You two are uptight.

Elena : It's not you who's going to face the consequences.

Jake : True, sorry.

If she was indeed pregnant and if Jeremy refused to marry her then her life

would be hard.

Jake : I'm going to take blood and urine samples.

Elena : And you won't talk to anyone ?

Jake : I swear.


Bonnie : Do you think Jeremy will support you ?

Elena : I don't know.

Bonnie : But you've been dating for months.

Elena : We didn't discuss babies !

Bonnie : Elena !

Elena : Sorry. We don't even know if I'm pregnant but if I am I'm screwed.

Bonnie : If you are, you'll tell him ?

Elena : Yes, I will.

Bonnie : How does it feel, you know...

Elena : she smiled Are you talking about sex ?

Bonnie : with a small voice Yes.

Elena : There's no shame in that. You want to sleep with Jake, right ?

Bonnie : Shhh someone could hear you !

Elena : So what do you want to know exactly ?

Bonnie : I know what's supposed to happen but how does it feel really ?

Elena : Honestly the first time will be painful even with a doctor who knows anatomy but the other times will be great.

Bonnie : I need more details.

Elena : Alright so...

They started to whisper.
