Ellie walked into the doctor's office and went up to the front desk. "Hi my names Ellie Nash I called in earlier today asking for an appoitment you said come around 4" Ellie looked at her watch. "It's 5. I'm sorry I'm late." The lady behind the desk glanced at Ellie and back at her files. "Your here to see if your pregnant? Aren't you a bit young?" "Um is that really any of your buisness?!" Ellie snapped back. "No it's not sorry. The doctor will see you shortly please wait in that room"
Ellie went into the room with a bunch of coughing and sneezing kids, even some adults were there with depressing looks on their faces. Ellie spotted a girl around her age and made her way over to her. "Hey I'm Ellie is this the waiting room?" "Yup what was your first clue?" The girl with straight brown hair looked around the room and sighed. "By the way my names Deena. Are you sick?" "Um no I wouldn't say that, are you?" "No...I'll tell you the truth because you look like a nice person. My mom took me here to see if I'm pregnant" "Oh my god no way!" Ellie grinned. "I'm glad I'm not the only one! I'm here for the same exact reason" "wow really? How did your mom take it?" I didn't tell her..." "Oh wow so your in this alone" "Well there's my boyfriend" "Your lucky. My boyfriend isn't here for me anymore..." "oh I'm sorry about that" "it's fine I'm glad someone is"
"Ellie Nash!" A women in a white outfit walked over to Ellie. "are you Ellie?" "Yes I am" "Follow me" Ellie was led into a small white room. "here you go- the bathroom is 4 doors down" The nurse handed Ellie a cup Ellie took it shyly and went off to the bathroom, when she came back the same nurse was looking through papers. "Do you want us to tell your mom if your pregnant or not?" "You mean I have a choice?!" Ellie smiled. "Well sure your old enough but when its closer to the actual birth we have to let her know I hope you understand" "Um ok" "well we'll call you later so just wait and we'll let you know" "thanks" Ellie took her things and left.
On the way home she thought about Sean. How hard was this for him? It was hard for her but she knew it had to be tough for Sean too. As Ellie walked inside her house she saw her mother had left a note. "Ellie-I went to get some dinner, do your homework!" Ellie tossed the note in the garbage and waited by the phone while doing her math ditto.
3 hours later after homework, Chinese food and a nice hot shower Ellie found herself near the phone again just waiting for it to ring. And it did.
Ellie:Hello?
Doctor's office:Hello Ellie?
Ellie:Yes this is Ellie
Doctor's office:Hi we got your results in and your-"
Ellie:I'm pregnant?
Doctor's office:Yes you are
Ellie:Oh ok
Doctor's office:would you like us to speak to your mother?
Ellie:NO it's fine I told her already
Doctor's office:now there are many options out there if you wanna hear more about them you can stop by again later and pick up a packet about it.
Ellie:You know what it's ok I think I know what I wanna do.
Doctor's office:Well thank you and good luck
Ellie:thanks bye
Ellie hung up the phone and started crying. This was it she was pregnant. Should she call Sean or wait? Her head wasn't clear she just couldn't think. Ellie looked over at the counter and spotted a bottle of vodka. She picked it up and stared at it, while untwisting the cap she wondered if it would hurt the baby, not sure if it would she put the bottle to her lips and took a sip.
