Chapter 3
I am such an idiot. I don't regret that night, of course I don't but I wish we'd been smart enough to remember…. The….well…the you know (!) the second time round. Oh no! The bell for class just rang and I'm going to be late! I'll have to continue this in class.
Okay… so… now I have no idea what to do. Lilly knows. Lilly knows! She doesn't know that I know that she knows but still. OMG! She knows! I am in so much trouble. I'll have to talk to her.
Lilly , you know what you said a minute ago?
Yes Mia?
Well… you don't actually think that do you?
Mia, I wouldn't have said it if I didn't think it. Is it true? Am I right? OMG! Am I going to be an aunt? Is this a good thing or a bad thing? OMG! You slept with my brother! EWWW! OMG! You slept with him and didn't tell me! MIA! I can't believe you didn't tell me!
I didn't write back. After a minute or two I got the following note from Tina:
Mia, Lilly says that you and M did it! Why didn't you feel it vital to share this piece of info? But seriously Mia! We're your friends.
Tina…I didn't tell ye… because hasn't Lilly told you?
Tell me what?
I'll tell you after class.
When the bell rang I tried to make a run for it, but I totally wasn't fast enough. Lilly and Tina cornered me and Tina demanded her answers. I tried looking at her as if I didn't know what she was on about but she saw right through that! Lilly put her arms around me…something that I hadn't expected…and gave me a hug. I thought she would kill me, and shout at me for being so stupid. But she didn't. Tina was getting annoyed because she still wasn't in the know. I was going to tell her, but first I wanted to know how Lilly knew. She told me that she'd just put all the bits together. The bitchyness, (which I so hadn't noticed! I bet she made that up!), the puking, and the look of sheer and utter terror that was a constant fixture on my face now days. Tina suddenly understanding, gasped and put her hands up to her mouth. "Mia!" she screeched, "You're not….you couldn't be… you're…." I nodded and she screeched again, "But Mia…didn't you use…" I shook my head. "Mia! You are sooo stupid! What are you going to do?"
"Hey!" I said, "this isn't all my fault! It takes two to tango Tina!"
Tina just glared at me. Lilly smiled a little and said, "Right, lets cut class and go call my brother." I stared at her. Was she mad! Was she clinically insane?
"Go find…your…your…brother…?" I stuttered.
"Yes Mia. You may remember him from such films as, lets get my sisters best friend knocked up!" I chose to ignore this and just continue my protest.
"Lilly, I so can't tell him!"
"Whoa….he doesn't know?"
"Well… I told him Lilly, but he didn't believe me," I said softly and looking at the floor.
"Mia," Tina said, "That doesn't sound at all like Michael. When did you tell him?"
"Last night."
"You saw him last night!"
"No…" I said keeping my eyes fixed on the floor and feeling my face turning red.
"Then how did you tell him Mia? Not over the phone?"
My face was getting hotter and hotter and I wanted the ground to just swallow me up at that point.
"um…no."
"Then how did you tell him Mia!" Lilly shouted.
"I IMed him."
"You told him he was going to be a father in an instant message! Mia are you crazy!"
Tears began to prickle in the backs of my eyes and I blinked to keep them back.
"Have you no respect for him?" Lilly asked angrily.
"I do…" I mumbled still avoiding eye contact.
"Ya sure Mia. I can't believe you'd do that to him. You don't love him at all do you?"
Tears leaked out from behind my now closed eyes and I decided I couldn't stand it any longer. I picked up my bag, pushed Lilly and Tina out of the way and ran out the classroom door. Lars was waiting outside for me. He'd probably heard everything but I didn't care. I kept running. I ran down the hallway and to the main exit. I ran out into the car park. I heard Lars running after me yelling, "Princess Mia! Stop please! Wait!" But I kept running. I ran and I ran until I reached the road. I stood and waited for the cars to pass. After a minute there was an opening in the traffic. I made my way across the road. I was more than half way across when suddenly WHAM! Something hit me hard. I remember pain, blood, screams, and then, darkness.
