Save Me
Chapter 4 "The Breakup"
A/N: Thanks to everyone who reviewed, there are way too many people to list them all, so, just a huge thanks to everyone. :-D
It was two weeks later and Prue hadn't seen or talked to Andy. Or Jack, but he was a different story, Prue didn't want to see him, at least not yet. The bruise along her jaw had healed, but Prue knew her fear of him wouldn't go away that easy. But she missed Andy terribly, he still had betrayed her trust and she hadn't forgiven him on that yet, but she still missed having him around, being around him. Seeing him laugh or smile. She did have feelings for him, she realized, feeling that went way beyond friendship, but it was too late to do anything about them now; she had already screwed that up.
Prue was walking out side, just about to walk to the park when she saw Jack's black Honda driving up the street. Prue stood on her driveway, frozen as Jack parked the car and got out. "Hey" he said walking up to her. Prue nodded, her eyes not meeting his "Hey". "We need to talk" Jack said with a hint of regret in his voice. "Prue, I want you to know that I really like you and all, but, I'm only 19, I can't be saddled with a kid" Jack told her. "How do you think I feel?" Prue asked, "My whole future is over, Jack, before it even started" "Then get an abortion and we can forget this ever happened" Jack suggested "And go back to the way we were" Prue looked up at him, shaking her head, he really just didn't get it. "I'm not having an abortion" Prue told him point blank "As much as I hate this, I'm not going to kill my, um, our baby" Prue said. "Prue, you have too, no one can know that I slept with you! I'm 19, you're 16, and don't think for a second that Grams wouldn't press charges, damnit Prue, she'd jump at the chance!" Jack said sounding frustrated. "No, Jack, you don't know her like I do. She wouldn't" Prue said, even though she really had no idea how Grams would react. "I'm not going to jail for just a stupid mistake" Jack told her angrily. Prue gasp, that's all it was to him? A stupid mistake? "You can't tell anyone its mine" Jack said, shaking his head. "People will figure it out; you're the only serious boyfriend I've ever had! And the only person who I've ever had sex with" Prue said in a hushed tone, afraid that one of her sisters or Grams would hear them. "Let's sit in your car and talk" Prue suggested. "What I have to say won't take that long" Jack said walking closer to Prue and kissing her on the forehead softly, "Prue, I wish things were different, but I can't change what happened and I also can't deal with this in my life right now. I'm breaking up with you, Please don't call me anymore" Jack said softly walking away from her, back to his car.
Prue opened her mouth to speak but the words stuck in her throat. Jack was leaving her for good? Now she really was all alone. Jack looked up at her once more before climbing into his car and driving away "Bye Prue" he said barely above a whisper and Prue watched the Honda drive away and get smaller and smaller until Jack turned a corner and Prue couldn't see him anymore. Prue's first instinct was to call Andy and tell him what happened so he could help her and tell her what she could do, but, she realized, snapping back to reality harshly, that she didn't have that option, Andy would probably never speak to her again, and she didn't blame him for it after the way she treated him.
Prue had the urge to drive over to his house and just apologize until he finally talked to her again, but , she remind herself, if he wanted to speak to her he would have called. With a sigh, Prue walked back in the house, she didn't feel like taking a walk now. She just wanted to go to sleep and forget this ever happened.
She laid on her bed and cried. Prue had never cried so much in her life as she had in the past month and a half since she'd learned she was pregnant. Prue just kept remembering what Jack had said 'I only things had turned out differently…just get an abortion…we could go back to the way we were' Prue smiled. They way they were, happy. They were both happy before this started. Before this happened Prue was just a normal sixteen year-old girl and Andy was just her best friend, not someone who she had a crush on, Jack was her boyfriend and she never wanted anyone else, or at least didn't think she did.
Prue sat up suddenly, she knew what she had to do, and as much as it made her sick to think about it, maybe Jack was right, maybe an abortion was the best way to go. Prue hated the idea of having one, but she truly didn't know how she could raise a child alone either. Prue walked down the stairs and picked up the phone book from the kitchen counter, flipping through it until she found the address to a Planned Parenthood in downtown San Francisco. "Grams, I'm going to Andy's I'll be back by dinner" Prue lied, closing the phone book again and grabbing the keys to Gram's car that were hanging on the key rack.
I'm making the biggest decision of my life right now, Prue thought, parking Grams car in the Planned Parenthood parking lot and looking at the building with apprehension. No, I can't, Prue though, putting the key back in the ignition and then pausing again. "I have to" Prue said aloud, taking the key out again. She put her head on the steering wheel and stated to cry. She had to get an abortion; it was the only way…or was it?
A/N: Ha ha! A cliffhanger! As always, please review.
