Chapter XXVI-What the Doctor Said
Dani had a problem with Tim spending the night with Kris. If you think about it Dani had a reason to not exactly be friends with Kris. Kris had taken Matt away, Kris had broken her brother's heart, and now she thought Tim was leaving for Kris. Little did she know that later tonight on their date he planned to tell Dani he loved her. He told Kris and she was excited for him. Dani hated the idea of Tim taking Kris to the hospital but Dani understood that something was wrong with Kris. She needed a friend, not a boyfriend so Junior stayed home and waited for her to come back. It started to rain, hard. Junior got worried that it was a bad omen or something. But Kris left with Tim anyway. She talked to the doctor about what she was feeling and for the doctor it all seemed to make sense. I am not going to tell you what the doctor said just yet let's just say she was happy to have Tim there because there was no way she would be able to drive home. She cried and was in shock for awhile, she wasn't sure what to feel. Tim held her but it was getting late and he knew Junior was wondering what was going on. Junior was just sitting at home waiting for the car to pull up. He looked out the window a waited. When he saw Tim's car pull up he got filled with emotions. Happy she was home, afraid of what happened. Kris got out in the rain but instead of running inside she stood there for a minute. Then she walked up to the apartment and Junior met her at the door. She was crying, if anyone else looked at her they would just see the rain, but Junior saw her tears. "I am so sorry." That's all she could get out. Junior held her close to him and all she kept saying was how sorry she was and she didn't know, she didn't know. Junior wanted to ask her what happened but he knew that Kris wasn't ready to come to terms with whatever it was. Jean called to see if Kris was alright because she knew about the appointment and wanted to talk to Kris.
"She isn't really ready to talk to anyone yet Jean but I will tell her to call you."-Junior
"Okay, is she alright Junior?"-Jean asked worriedly
"I…I am not sure."-Just saying those words made Junior uncomfortable. The ideas of Kris being sick or not alright made Junior want to collapse.
After about an hour of crying, Kris ran out of tears. She went to the bathroom to wash her face and came back out to see Junior holding a glass of water for her. "Water always calmed me down as a kid." He said.
Kris sat down and looked at Junior, although she couldn't seem to make eye contact with him. "Ju-Junior. I…I am…well…I was pregnant. I lost it during the race today." Suddenly Kris could feel the tears coming back and she didn't have the energy to hold them back anymore.
Junior began to cry too. He held Kris. Neither of them was ready for a baby but that doesn't mean they wouldn't have made it work. "Kris it isn't your fault, it's not your fault." Junior kept telling her but it didn't matter. She shouldn't have ridden while she was sick. She should have gone to the doctor when she first got sick. She felt like a murderer. She took a life and she would never forgive herself. She called Pablo, she said she was sick and she wasn't going to come in for about a week. "Why, are you alright." He asked.
"Um…yea I just have the flu or something;" Kris lied. She couldn't tell the father that she just found that she was pregnant, that she was just like her mother. Oh god she was just like her mother. Kris and Junior barely talked for a few days, Kris couldn't bear to talk to him. When Pablo called to try and get her to come in she had no choice but to agree to it. It was that or she would have to tell him that she got pregnant and then lost it. She was crying and telling Wildfire what had happened, she finished her chores but she didn't want to go home. That's when the nice red Porsche pulled up again. Kris had almost forgotten that Sabrina would be coming down. She looked over to get a better look at who was there and not only was Sabrina walking toward her but Tim was there too. When Sabrina noticed where she was she started running. Sabrina hugged Kris and tried to calm her down. When Tim caught up he told them both to sit down and relax. Sabrina started crying for Kris. Sabrina didn't know what to say so she just sat there with her. Finally it became dark and Kris needed to get home. She knew Junior would worry. She didn't want him to but he did and she just accepted it. Tim drove her home in her car and Sabrina followed close behind so Tim could have a ride after. When Kris got out of the car Sabrina did to. She wanted to tell Junior she was sorry. She went up to the apartment with Kris and Junior thanked Sabrina for coming. Junior held Kris again. He never wanted to let go and she never wanted him to. Kris kept apologizing to Junior. They were sitting watching a movie on the couch trying to forget about it. It was like 8-o'clock at night and there was a knock at the door. Junior went to answer it, a little confused. Matt was at the door, he said he wanted to see if Kris was feeling better. Junior told Matt it wasn't a good idea to come in but Matt said he didn't care if he got sick. Matt wasn't getting the signals that Junior was sending him. Matt pushed his was through and found Kris on the couch holding her stomach.
"Hey Kris. You feeling better yet?"-Matt
"Oh, Matt. Hi. Um…yah a little bit."-Kris said frantically.
"Why are you holding your stomach? You feel like you are going to throw up or something?"-Matt said sitting next to her.
"No, no I feel better. Thanks, but I am kind of tired can we talk tomorrow?"-Kris
"You were throwing up right? Just be glad it wasn't morning sickness."-Matt said with laughter.
Kris looked down and Junior followed her glances. Matt looked from Kris to Junior and back again. "You…You're pregnant?"
Kris started to cry again. Junior walked over and picked Matt up by his shirt. "C'mon man. It's time to go."
Matt got all confused and asked Junior to tell him what was going on. "Dude, Kris didn't know she was pregnant so when she rode in the race she lost it. She is pretty shaken up about it."
"Oh, is she going to be okay?"-Matt asked concerned.
"She has her ups and downs but overall she is getting better. Listen man we trust you. You can't tell anyone. We don't want to hurt her career and we really don't want a bunch of people coming up to us saying how sorry they are, alright?"
"Sure dude, you got it. Do Sabrina, Tim, and Dani know?"-Matt
"Tim was at the doctors with her and he told Sabrina this morning. I am not sure if Dani knows. I am probably going to tell her tomorrow."-Junior
"Well I am going there now; you want me to tell her?"-Matt
"Yeah, that would be good. Thanks man, see you tomorrow."-Junior
Matt left to talk to Dani and Junior went back over to Kris. She had stopped crying but she was still holding her stomach. Junior put his arm around her and they laid down. Meanwhile back at the Davis house:
"Wait, you are telling me Kris got pregnant? It was Junior's right?"-Dani
"Yeah, but it needs to stay a secret."-Matt
Dani looked at Tim and Sabrina; "You two knew about this and didn't tell me?"
"Dani, Kris was all shaken up and I didn't want to make her more upset. Don't give me any of your bull crap."-Tim
Matt spent the night at the Davis ranch and they stayed up talking. Not particularly about Kris but just general stuff. The phone rang late at night. Dani answered it and she told then to call back in like a half hour. That's when everyone else would be asleep. Tim got a little suspicious but didn't say anything. He wasn't going out with Dani exclusively, although we wouldn't think about going out with another girl they hadn't talked about that yet. He would talk to her tomorrow he decided. Sabrina woke up in what seemed like the middle of the night, everyone was asleep so she went down to the kitchen to get a drink of water. Before she walked into the kitchen she heard Dani on the phone. She listened to make sure she wasn't cheating on her brother but sadly she was talking about something else; she was talking about Kris. It was too late to call Kris and tell her so Sabrina went back upstairs to try and fall asleep again. She would talk to Kris in the morning.
