Chapter Twenty Two:

It had been three weeks since that day, thankfully Chad hadn't found out yet. Sam woke up at 6:30, it was raining so she had to wake Chad up for a ride. She quickly got dressed before leaving her room, she went to his door and knocked. She didn't get an answer, so she just opened the door.

Sam stood there shocked, she couldn't believe what she'd just seen. She closed the door and stood there for a minute, she decided maybe she could catch a ride with Moe and Mikey. She forgot her umbrella but gladly walked through the rain, when she got to Mikey's house him and Moe were just leaving.

"Hey, can I get a ride with you guys? Chad's...busy." Sam asked walking over to them.

"Sure, get in." Moe said getting in as well.

Sam sat in the back, the ride there was quiet. Sam wasn't feeling well but didn't wanna say anything, she was thankful when they pulled up outside.

"Have a good day you two, well not all that great." Moe yelled out the door.

"Shut up Moe." Mikey said closing the door.

"What's he mean by that?" Sam asked.

"I have no idea."

They walked inside and she went to her locker, she was soaking wet. But she really didn't care, she liked the rain.

"You smell like a wet dog, what happened?" Michelle asked.

"I had to walk to Mikey's for a ride." she said taking out some body spray she had, she did stink.

"Why didn't Chad give you a ride?"

"He was rather busy."

"At 6 in the morning? What was he doing?" Andie piped in.

"Well I opened his door, and him and Ritza were sleeping."

"I thought Ritza was dating Moe." Michelle said.

"They were but they broke it off, apparently Ritza slept with Chad."

The bell rang and Sam ran to class, she still stunk but hoped no one would notice. Soon after she sat down people around her were pinching their noses, she looked around and Billy was 'gagging'. She just ignored them, she was used to it.

The teacher talked and talked, whatever she was saying no one was listening. It was raining and they were all staring out the window, good thing the teacher didn't notice that.

The bell rang and everyone left, Mikey walked Sam to her locker.

"Thanks for walking me here, but I can walk by myself." Sam said.

"I know, I just don't like that Billy."

"So I was protecting you?"

"Pretty much, yeah. I remember seeing you take down Tiffany, I trust you."

"You talkin' about me?" Billy asked walking over to them.

"No, should we be?" Sam asked.

"I heard my name, what'd you say?" he asked looking at Mikey.

"Billy, get lost. You need serious help, okay? Go ask daddy to take you to a shrink and leave us alone."

"One of these days Sammy, one of these days." with that he left.

"What's he mean by that?" Mikey asked looking at her.

"He's crazy, probably talking to the voices." she answered rolling her eyes.

Sam felt a wave of nausea, but she ignored it. The bell rang and she had to get back to class, during class she felt nauseous. She really wasn't paying attention to the teacher, but when did she?

The bell soon rang, thank God. She ran to the bathroom to throw up, she felt really sick. She stayed in there until she was sure she wasn't going to throw up again, when she left the lunch bell rang.

She walked over to Michelle and Andie, when she sat down she put her head down on the table.

"You look horrible." Andie said.

"Thanks." Sam answered.

"Are you alright?" Michelle asked.

"I'm fine...I think."

"What's wrong?"

"I just don't feel well, alright?"

"Okay, fine."

"Want something to eat?" Andie asked.

"Please, no food." Sam grunted.

They sat there in complete silence the rest of the time, Sam grunted when she heard the bell ring.

"Look at it this way, there's only one more class." Michelle said standing up.

"Only one more class, one more." Sam told herself.

She walked to her last class and sat down, she couldn't believe she'd made it this far without throwing up. She tried to focus on what the teacher was saying, she really did. It just wasn't her day, she didn't hear a word he said.

The bell rang and she went to call Chad, when she got to the pay phone Billy cut a head of her. She stood there getting more and more angry, until she couldn't take it anymore.

"Billy move you're fat ass." she said.

"Testy, something wrong?" he asked turning around.

"Yeah, you're in my way."

"I have a right to be here."

"And so do I, now move please."

"There ya go, all you had to say was please." he said stepping aside.

She quickly called Chad and waited outside in the rain, she was silently cursing herself for not bringing her umbrella. Soon Mikey came out and sat down next to her, at least he brought his umbrella.

"Hey." he said smiling.

"Hey yourself."

"Is something wrong?"

"I don't feel very good, horrible actually. I feel utterly horrible."

"Awe, what's wrong?"

"I threw up today, it might be a bug or something."

"Awe you poor thing."

"It's not funny."

"I wasn't saying it was."

Chad soon pulled up and honked his horn, he seemed to be in a hurry.

"I'll see you tomorrow then, bye." Sam called heading towards the car.

"Bye." Mikey called after her.

"What's up?" Chad asked when she closed the door.

"Nothing, can we stop by the drug store? I've got something I need to pick up."

"Sure, what is it?"

"Nothing that has anything to do with you."

"Girl things, huh?"

"Yeah, girl things."

Sam wasn't paying attention, they soon pulled up outside a CVS. Sam got out and ran into the store, she quickly looked for a pregnancy test. She bought the cheapest one she found, and quickly stuffed it into her back pack and ran back out to the car.

"Did they have what you were looking for?" Chad asked noting there wasn't a bag.

"No they didn't, but I don't need it yet." she answered quickly.

"Oh, alright."

As soon as they got home Sam ran to the bathroom to throw up, she hoped Chad wouldn't think anything of it. She slipped off to her room and stared at the box, she went to the bathroom and used it.

She didn't know where else to put it so she brought it into her room, at least no one would go snooping. It took 10 minutes for the results, it seemed like days.

Her watch beeped and she looked at it, she couldn't believe her eyes. She heard the doorbell ring and her mother answer it, she heard talking then her mother coming towards her door. There was a light knock and the door opened.

"Mikey's here." she didn't say anything else and she left.

Sam went into the living room and he was sitting on the couch.

"Hey, what's up?" she asked sitting down next to him.

"I just wanted to know if you wanted to come over to my house, Moe's out on a date with his new girlfriend Heather. My mom's away and I'm all alone."

"Sure." she said getting up and going to the door.

They walked to his house in silence, they went into his house and into the living room. They started watching tv, but still neither one said anything.

"Mikey, I have something to tell you." Sam said taking the remote from him and turning off the tv.

"Sure, what is it?"

"I'm pregnant."

Mikey sat back in shock, he couldn't believe she'd just said that.

"You're....what?"

"I'm pregnant." she repeated.

"That's...great."

His answer shocked Sam, she thought he'd freak out.

"It is?" she asked unsure she heard him right.

"Well, it's a little soon. But yeah, it's great."

"You're not mad then?"

"Why would I be? Sammy, I've loved you for a while now. It's the greatest news you could ever give me." he said kissing her.

"You mean it?"

"Hell yeah, when did you find out?"

"Right before you rang the doorbell."

"That's great." he said smiling.

They sat on the couch and soon fell asleep, Moe came home and found them on the couch. He walked over to them and lightly shook Mikey.

"What's she doing here?" Moe whispered.

"She came over to watch tv."

Sam stirred and rolled over, she opened her eyes and ran to the bathroom.

"What was that about?" Moe asked shocked.

"It was the opposite of scaring the shit out of her, you scared the puke out of her." Mikey laughed.

When Sam came back into the living room Mikey decided to walk her home, she was carrying his child after all. When they got to her door she turned to face him.

"You're really not mad are you?" she asked.

"I couldn't be happier Sammy, honest."

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow."

She kissed him and went inside, he walked home and went to sleep. Sam fell asleep with her hand over her stomach, she was for once honestly happy.
