DISCLAIMER: LIKE BEFORE, NOTHING STILL BELONGS TO ME.
Mimi, Belle, and Chloe walked around the Black's kitchen as they sleepily tried to make themselves some breakfast.
"My toast burned." Chloe pouted as she held a piece of dark brown toast between two delicate fingers. "I am domestically impaired even with all this technology." She grumbled as she dropped the burnt bread into the trash.
"Well, same here." Belle said mimicking Chloe.
"I'm not making anything." Mimi declared.
"Where's my mom?" Belle asked looking around and both Chloe and Mimi smiled. It was well known to all her friends that Belle Black was never going to be able to make anything edible.
"They're still sleeping." Chloe declared.
"Great. We're going to starve." Belle whispered.
"I'm going to get some coffee at Salem Place. Who's coming?" Mimi declared.
The three girls rushed upstairs as they hurriedly showered, dried and changed. Two hours later, and still hungry, they were all finally done, looking beautiful for their little breakfast trip to Salem Place.
"We might as well get lunch." Belle stated as she grabbed her purse and locked the door.
"A big lunch because I'm starving." Mimi declared, rubbing her stomach.
The three girls walked into the elevator.
"Ugh. I'm not feeling too good." Mimi frowned feeling slightly queasy when the elevator started to descend.
"We'll get there, Meems. It must be your hunger." Chloe stated and Belle nodded in approval.
Mimi just sighed, trying to breathe out her uneasiness. She hadn't been feeling well for weeks. She was either nauseous or dizzy or very hungry.
A few minutes later, in Belle's car they reached Salem Place and the girls ordered lunch instead of breakfast.
"Hmm. This is good." Chloe beamed smelling her food.
"Yup." Belle said as she dug in. "I'm so hungry."
"I'm going to go to the bathroom." Mimi winced as she hurriedly stood up and dashed to the nearest bathroom.
Belle and Chloe gave each other a look.
"It's nothing." Chloe whispered and Belle nodded apprehensively, looking back at the direction Mimi ran to.
"She's fine." She said more to herself than Chloe.
"Hey." Shawn's voice interrupted them, completely startling Belle. Jason and Philip were right behind them.
"Hey." She smiled, looking up at him.
"We were looking all over for you. No one picked up at your house." Shawn declared.
"Oh, we got hungry so we decided to get breakfast over here but then we took so long so we decided to get lunch instead." Belle explained.
"Where's Meems?" Philip asked curiously.
"Oh, in the girls' bathroom." Chloe answered as Philip gave her a quick kiss.
"Is she okay?" Jason asked and both girls nodded immediately.
"Just fine." Belle smiled.
"Yup." Chloe piped in and the guys shared a suspicious look.
"I'm going to go wait for her." Jason said as he walked over to the girls' bathroom just as Mimi came out looking flushed.
"You okay?" He asked worriedly.
She nodded, carelessly pushing a stray strand of hair away from her face.
"You don't look so hot." He said.
She glared at him, obviously peeved. "Gee, Jase, thanks so much for the confidence boost." She said walking ahead of him.
"Are you always going to be angry with me? Is this it?" He insisted, annoyed with her. It was too damn early to fight and he just wanted to see her, and maybe even spend time with her.
Obviously, that was too much to ask.
"I'm sorry if I keep snapping at you. You make it so easy for me to pick on you. Kind of funny since you did the same to me for almost all my life." She said with a smirk.
Boy was she being spiteful.
"Hey, that was before-"
"Before we liked each other?" She said finishing the sentence for him. She nodded, sighing in the process. "Yeah, well, things are more complicated than that. And we both know it." She said firmly.
Jason knew exactly what she meant but that wasn't going to stop him from caring about her.
"Meems, I don't care if don't want to do anything romantic or sexual- whatever you want you call it. Just let me be with you. I won't ask for anything in return." He said sincerely; taking her hand and holding it gently.
She opened his palm and traced her initials and his after. "I wish...." She trailed off not knowing what to say. If only you knew what I'm carrying Jason; you wouldn't want me, she thought sadly, looking up at him. "You don't want damaged goods, Jase. Trust me on that." She said closing his hand into a ball and letting it go.
"Meems-"
"No. If there was any way I could change things, I would. I swear to you, Jason, I would but not now. It's not possible." She said tearfully. "I am so sorry for burdening you with my problems. But I won't do it ever again." She said wiping her tears away. "Can you tell Belle and Chloe that I had to go home? I don't want them to see me crying." She said quietly before walking away.
Mimi made it to the park before she broke into tears again and had to sit down.
Pregnant.
The word felt like a knife through her chest. It made her physically sick just to even think of it.
She's been sick for weeks, throwing up, fainting. God.
She should have known that being raped wasn't punishment enough. She just had to be left with the constant reminder of something so horrible.
A child. A very unwanted child.
She didn't need the confirmation of a doctor or a pregnancy test. She could feel it inside her.
Growing.
Her stomach was starting to swell even if just a little but she noticed. She had always known. At first she thought, maybe, just maybe she was wrong. She just didn't want to admit it but now, everything was so clear and she couldn't deny it anymore. She counted back the months. Three to four months. Just about right.
Soon, she would be showing and the whole town of Salem would see. They would all see her shame and whisper behind her back while pretending to be kind. They'd smile but they wouldn't know whether to congratulate her or apologize for something so tragic.
Mimi wouldn't be able to take it.
The idea of it felt like a heavy stone being weighed on her. How was she going to hide this now? Her parents would know. They would have to.
Her life would be completely ruined. She wouldn't be able to finish the last few months of high school. She wouldn't be able to face her family. Her friends. Jason.
He'd hate her. She knew he would.
"I would rather die." Mimi whispered vehemently as painful thoughts flooded her mind.
She was not going to let this ruin her. That man. That bastard raped her and he wasn't going to take away her last chance of being normal.
There was no way in hell she would let him destroy her family and friends like he did her.
She remembered her words to Jason. If there was something she could do to change things, she would.
She had sworn to him and she was going to stick to that no matter what.
Mimi abruptly stood up, determination filling her blood, mixing with the rage and hate and fear.
She was going to get rid of this baby and pretend that the world was alright again. That was the plan and she has the rest of the day to execute it.

"Where's Meems?" Belle asked, looking up at Jason who grudgingly walked back to their table.
"She had to go home." Jason replied cryptically.
"Man, I don't get her. She keeps running. What is her problem?" Philip stated and the girls and Jason shot him an annoyed look saying, you don't know anything so shut up.
"Nice job, Jase. Nice job." Jan Spears' sarcastic voice interrupted them and Jason whirled around to face her, looking irritated and ready to attack her if he had to.
"What the hell do you want?" Philip demanded.
"Oh, nothing." Jan said, shrugging her shoulders. "I got to hand it to you Jase; you still work fast even though you're hanging out with losers now." She said bitterly as she gave each of them a dirty look.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Jason demanded furiously.
"Oh, I saw your little girlfriend in the bathroom and man did you do a good job of knocking her up. I mean, she couldn't even stand up from throwing up so much. Good work, you bastard." She said playfully smacking him on the shoulder; the glint of something vicious still in her eyes.
Belle abruptly lunged towards her knocking Jan to the ground as she sent the other girl a good hard punch. "You stupid piece of worthless shit! You have no right to talk about her like that! You don't even know anything!" Belle yelled as everyone tried to yank her off of Jan. Belle viciously fought Jan, grabbing scratching and punching anything she could. "You don't know anything!" Belle hissed as Jan stood herself up, wiping the blood that trickled from her lips.
"You'll pay for that you stupid-"
"You better leave Jan or I'll finish off what she started." Chloe warned icily.
"This isn't over." Jan hissed as she stormed off.
"No, it isn't." Jason whispered.
Everyone stood in shocked silence. Belle looked like a tornado had hit her. Her hair was a mess, she was slightly scratched from Jan fighting back and she looked furious as hell. It was completely out of character for her to just attack anyone. She was usually nice and calm, even when Jan came around to annoy everyone with her spiteful comments.
This time, it was different and they could all see that, even Shawn and Philip who were all bewildered by her very irrational behavior.
"She had no right." She whispered brokenly and Chloe immediately stepped forward to hug her just before she broke into sobs.
"We know. It isn't true Belle. Jan's just a little bitch." Chloe whispered as the tears started to form. "I'm glad you beat the crap out of her." Chloe said, trying to lighten the mood.
"What the hell is going on?" Philip asked, completely still in shock but the realization that his friends were hiding something was dawning on him.
"Philip, not now." Jason interrupted.
"She'll be okay." Chloe said, trying to soothe Belle who was now shaking from her sobs.
"She has to be. She has to be okay." Belle said; her voice muffled in Chloe's jacket.
Jason watched the two of them.
It was obvious. They knew. Belle wouldn't have done that if she didn't know. He was trying to process the information in his mind and it seemed that his brain was malfunctioning.
But it made sense despite his denial.
Jan wouldn't make up a rumor if there wasn't any truth to it.
And Mimi was upset. Very very upset.
Oh God, Jason thought.
"I have to find Mimi." He said as he ran off.
