Chapter Eight:
Waiting for Jade's damn test results was a hell for her. She wanted to know the results. So, when the results got to them, she was releaved.
"Results..Come on, I'm waiting" Jade said, sarcastically. Dr. Evans flashed Jade a quick half smile.
"um..Yes" Dr. Evans said, shuffling her papers around.
"Is there something wrong with her?" Marta asked concernly
"No, no. She's fine" Dr. Evans said
"So, she can leave now?" Freddy asked
"Yes, but there is ..um..there is one thing" Dr. Evans said
"What?" Jade asked, quickly
"She doesn't have any diseases but..Well, this..Jade,, You're pregnant" Dr. Evans said
Jade was blown away by the remark. Pregnant? Why her? "Everything Happens to me!" Jade thought.
"Pregnant? Are you sure?" Freddy asked
"Yes..she has three options as you probably know" Dr. Evans said "It's your choice Jade"
"Me..My decision? Sp, you saying I have to choose between: abortion, adoption and keeping it?" Jade asked
"Yes" Dr. Evans said
"I-I-I'm going to go find Matt" Jade stuttered, getting up and running out of Dr. Evans office.
Jade found Matt in the waiting room with Summer, Zack and his two siblings: Hannah and David. Jade ran over and kissed Matt.
"I guess the test results were good ones" Zack said, smirking
"You'd think that" Jade snapped
"What's that suppose to mean?" Zack asked
"Nothing..God! I'm already having mood swings" Jade said
"What? Mood swings? Are you preganant or something?" Matt asked, sarcastically. Jade laughed nervouly
"You guessed right" Jade said. Matt's mouth dropped open, Summer and Zack were both equally shocked.
"You're not kidding?" Matt asked, Jade nodded
"Have you decided what your going to do yet, Sweetie?" Summer asked
"That's what I'm thinking about right now" Jade said

Dear Diary,
I got the news that Jade was pregnant right after, I started trying to be a "rebel", like Jade use to be. I've really never been the "rebel" type, I tryed to change that, only to get myself in deep shit.
I was trying to find something "bad" to do, so, since Dewey wasn't at his apartment, and since he told Rodney and I that we could stay there..I looked around his apartment with Rodney, my boyfriend, who was going along with my plan.
I came apon Dewey's alcohol cabinet, and grabbed stuff to make Bloody Mary's, which Jade taught me to make about a year ago. So, I threw in a little vodka, tomato juice, a little bit of salt and pepper and I had mad Rodney and I, a perfectly good Bloody Mary.
By our second one, Rodney and I were drunk. I had put a "little" too much vodka in our drinks. I found some cigerettes next, but, after one I felt sick to my stomach and decided I was never going to take up smoking.
I must have passed out, because, I woke up in my hotel bed. My Mom and Dad were pissed at me.The next think I knew, I was packing to go home. My parents decided that were were moving to Detroit, to be closer to their friends. Rodney's family live near were we are going to live, so I'll get to see him everyday. Jade will get to see Matt too.
Preston, Jade's sick-minded rapist, is going to Juvie Hall till he turns eighteen, then he is going to jaol, for an un-known amount of time. Serves him right.
Who knows what life changing expirence will happen next...I just hope Jade does good with that baby of hers.
