Oh dear, I thought. What should I tell him? Wait . . . how should I
tell him? I can't! I must! "Uhh, soo James hhow was your summer?" I
stuttered. "Actually, it was quite brilliant I should say. Now what did you
want to tell me that was so important?" He replied. "Uhh, well," I had to
think fast, what was I going to tell him? Oh, James I hope this won't be a
neusence to your time here at school but I'm pregnant. Yeah right. "Uhh, I
wanted to ask you if you would sit by me in the Grand Hall." Woo, that was
a close one. "Umm, ok. But did you really need to make John leave just for
that?" Oh, no! Now what do I say? "Uhhh, yea, funny thing isn't it. Sorry,
I wasn't thinking. Well, see ya there!"
I got back to the compartment where Sara was waiting for me, for the details. "Sooo, what did he say?" she questioned. I stood for a moment. There was a silence between us. "Come on Lily, I'm sure it wasn't that bad." Again, there was a short pause and I finally told her, "I couldn't do it, Sara! I couldn't bare to see the look he would give me if I told him." I said covering my tears with my hands. She held me and said, "I'm sure he would be happy for you. For you both!" She sighed thinking, I could tell because she always bit her lip when she was having a brainstorm. She jumped up and dropped me to the floor, "I've got it!" "Ooo! Sara!" I exclaimed, rubbing my head. I got back on the bench and asked, "Whats the idea?" "I can tell him." "What? No, no! You can't!" "Why not? Since you're such a baby to do it yourself. I'll tell him for you!" She started walking towards the door. I tried to catch her by the arm but I missed. "I tell you is answer when I get back." She called back to me.
I had to follow her so she wouldn't mess things up. She came up to his compartment and slid the door open. "Good to see you again, James!" "You, too Sara." "Uhh, John. Would you be ever so kind?" "Fine!" John came out and walked my way, "Hello Lily!" Luckily, Sara was already in the compartment. She closed the door. So I quickly pressed my ear against the door. "Ok, James." "Ok, Sara." "Look, James. Lily came in here before and she was going to tell you something but she couldn't. So I'm going to tell you." "Uhh, okay?" "James . . . Lily's," she took a breath, "Lily's pregnant!" James looked shocked, "Shes what?" "Pregnant." Sara whispered. I looked in through the window and saw his motionless facial expression. I looked back again to see that he was . . .
