Author's Note: Okay, you guys might be disappointed, but I decided to write
this chapter after school got back in session after their little excursion
to New York. That's why I haven't been writing! WRITERS BLOCK!
God do I hate exams. I hate exams and I hate being sick. I woke up this morning and the first thing I did was puke. Dad made me come to school. It's the flu, I swear because I can't keep anything down.
"Question 32, please multiply these two matrices. No calculators." I whispered to myself.
[32.3 56.1 83.7] [45 95] [83.2 94.2 15.3] [54 35]
[98 32]
.God do I hate exams, and math and.the world right about now.
I finished with 5 minutes of class left to spare. Good thing exams are a half days and this is all for today. I stared out the window across the room. Damn, it's snowing again. We must have gotten at least 5 inches since school started this morning. My little wimpy car is gonna be stuck. The poor little thing.
My cell phone vibrated in my pocket. The screen displayed a message from Goku.
'I miss you! You feeling better?'
'I miss you too. Not yet. What's up?'
I waited a few beats and a response came onto the screen.
'Nothing. What are you doing today?'
'Nothing. Why?'
'Want to come over and watch a movie?'
'Yeah! That sounds fun!'
The bell rang. Another response came onto my screen.
'Stay there, I'll be there in a second.'
Moments later, Goku and I were walking hand in hand down the hallway and out to our cars.
"How were exams?"
I groaned. "I hate math. I couldn't focus at all."
"I wish I could help you with that, but I'm not very good either." He sighed. "It sucks that drawing and painting is over. That was my favorite class. Now I have to suffer through economics."
"Theater ends this semester too. I think I'm taking photography next semester. I honestly can't remember." We walked out the doors out into the blowing snow. The wind chill took my breath away.
"Christ, this is turning into a real blizzard. You drive home and I'll follow you. I'll take you back to my house from there." He said over the howling wind.
Wow, I don't know how the hell I made it back to my house. The wind was blowing me all over the road, and then with all the snow coming down, it's nearly impossible to see anything. I was very relieved when I pulled up in my driveway.
"Wanna come in?" I asked, shielding my face from the snow.
His eyes widened. I laughed. "Not like that! I just want to change my clothes and drop off my books."
"Hey, it works for me."
We slid up to the door and we walked in as soon as I unlocked it. "You can sit down wherever, I'll be right out." I walked back to my room and changed quickly into a black sweatshirt and black PJ pants. Yes, I believe in comfort.
I scribbled out a quick note to my dad saying I was going to Goku's house. Never mind calling him. He won't be home until late anyway.
I took a deep breath and held it until I got back into the warming of Goku's truck.
"This is bad." He said examining the sky through his front windshield.
"School will be closed tomorrow." I said hopefully.
"Too bad." He said smiling and backing down the driveway.

"I don't think we're in Kansas anymore." Dorothy said. I smiled. Wizard of Oz is my favorite movie.
Wind shook the house, and snuggled ever closer into Goku's arms. He draped a pink, fuzzy blanket over me.
The door opened and in came Raditz.
"Hey. Weather sucks doesn't it?" Goku said non-chalantly, not removing his gaze from the TV.
He grunted and shook the snow off of his shoes. When he finished taking off his gear, he came in and sat down in the only chair in the room.
We all watched in silence.
"You killed my sister!" Raditz said evilly in perfect sync with the audio.
I stared at him. "Oh my god."
His face broke out into a smirk, the closest thing I've seen to a smile yet from him.
"I'm hungry." Goku said, getting up abruptly. "I'm gonna go make macaroni. Sound good?"
I nodded and smiled. A wave of nausea swept over me. I ran up the short flight of stairs and flew into the bathroom. I leaned over the toilet, and I threw up stomach acid. I gasped and wiped my mouth on a piece of toilet paper. Suddenly, a thought entered my head that hadn't before.
Pregnant? Me?
I stood up and stared at myself in the mirror, my eyes wide and fixated on the girl staring back. No way in hell could I be pregnant. I'm just being stupid. Or was I?
I ran downstairs again. "Chi-Chi?" Goku's voice came from the kitchen. "We don't have enough butter. I have to run to the store. Wanna stay here?"
"No!" I exclaimed. "I'll come with you!" I dug my hand into my pocket and unveiled 20 dollars. Good. That's enough money.
I stood in the aisle at the grocery store. I didn't even know they made so many different kinds of pregnancy tests. I grabbed one of those that promises 'accurate results' in 5 minutes maximum. I rushed to the express lane to get checked out before Goku even found the butter. The cashier was about 50 years old, graying, and wrinkled. She gave me an appraising look and shook her head.
"Mind your own business!" I snapped at her.
I waited by the door for Goku to check out. The storm outside was still raging, and it was almost to whiteout conditions.
"I'll guarantee you we won't be able to go anywhere else tonight, so if there's anything else you need, get it now." He said. I shook my head. "Nothing then? Okay. Let's go home."
The ride home was quiet, probably because the storm was loud not to mention Goku's truck is a monster and incredibly loud.
I decided to wait until lunch was done to take the test. We sat down in the living and watched the noon news. Half of the city was closed down. Apparently the power went off on the south side of town. School was already canceled for tomorrow.
After the weather was reported, the lights flickered a few times, and then went out completely. I whimpered. The house wasn't pitch black, but was dark enough to have to blink in order to get used to the light, or lack of.
Raditz clicked on a flashlight he pulled out from a crack in the couch. "I'll get candles."
"You do that." Now was my chance. I walked upstairs and went into the bathroom and took my test. I set it on the sink counter and watched the second hand go around my watch. The second hand hit the 2 four different times. I took a deep breath. This was it. My life was about to change. I let out a noise, halfway between a sigh and a gasp when I saw it.
"Chi-Chi? You okay?" Goku's voice came from outside the door.
I opened the door. I cupped my hands around my nose and mouth. "Come in." I said to him. I showed him the test.
His eyes widened. "Chi-Chi?" He whispered.
"I'm pregnant." I whispered back.
Author's Note: I AM SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG! I'm glad I finally finished this chapter. I can't even tell you what a pain in the ass this was! I'll get another on up before Christmas, and maybe even before my birthday! Oh by the way, my birthday is December 15. Anyone care to send me a message? Haha.just kidding. I don't deserve it for making you guys wait like this!
Thanks for sticking with this! Bye!
