It's the beginning of a new semester. The gang is back together, and everyone had an eventful summer. The girls are living in an off campus home together. Ana, Sky, Jazz, and Vivek are throwing a Beyonce homecoming party to pay tribute to long-standing history of black students getting shut out of white universities. Zoey comes straight to the new house, from the airport, excited to see a party welcoming her home!
"I can't believe you did all this for me!" Zoey exclaims
Jazz tells her the real reason, "but I guess it was also for you" Jazz adds. Ana smiles, and Sky stays collecting the money for the party.
"You ain't got 20 dollars?! Then I guess you ain't got no business up in here!" Sky scolds a dude trying to get in without paying. Zoey is taken aback by Sky raising her voice.
"She been like this for most of the summer, this usually only happens when she's on her period. But now she's like a loose canon. I would be very careful around her if I were you" Jazz cautions Zoey, and Zoey nods her head in understanding.
"So how was everyone's summer?" Zoey asks her girls
"Pretty good, I really had to time to focus on myself and save up for this house!" Ana states
"Well, I running track all summer, and unpaid might I add" Jazz says super annoyed.
"Yes, and I spent six weeks in a cast, and another 3 in a walking boot, it was terrible. But not all bad, your brother kept me company at some of rehab appointments" Sky states nonchalantly, she then gets side tracked by making sure this freshman pays fee to get in.
"That's still going on?" Zoey asks referring to Sky and Junior.
"Oh yeah! All summer long" Ana informs
"So what now? Are they together?" Zoey asks
"They don't have a title" Jazz fills her in. "They just hang out and hook up whenever they feel like it. No strings or titles" Jazz says.
"I know, it's totally weird. But she's happy. So I don't say anything" Jazz says. Zoey understands Sky had a rough summer, considering she couldn't run in the NCAA finals, and instead had to rehab. But hooking up with her little brother? Zoey had to stop thinking about it. Otherwise she'd throw up.
"Come on, you got to change into your Beyonce fit, and see the new house!" Ana tells Zoey, and drags into the house, with the twins following behind.
Once Zoey was dressed, the twins, Ana, and Zoey made stride into the party confidently making an entrance. With Zoey leading the pack. Zoey then makes eye contact with Aaron who just recent arrived at the party, and stops the strut in its tracks.
"Did she just interrupt our strut?" Sky snaps
"No, she would not do that!" Jazz comments as if Zoey is a crazy person.
"Guys, I really need to talk to you guys in private" Zoey states urgently. The girls head back into the house.
"What is the emergency?" Ana asks plopping down on the couch in the living room, where everyone gathers around
"Aaron is out there" She tells them.
"So?" Jazz states confused
"I know you did not just drag us in here, because of Aaron. Really, I mean come on-" Jazz cuts of Sky, because she's pretty sure she would've cussed Zoey out.
"Sky, please. Let's hear Zoey out" She says calming her down. She nods her head.
"Okay, well you know how Aaron was the one to drop me off at the airport for Paris. We were talking in the car, and I was appreciative that he had been there for me, whenever I had needed. Of course, at the time Luca and I had just broke up, because he was unsupportive. So Aaron just being there was nice. So before I got on the plane, Aaron and I kissed" Zoey explains, the girls were all very shocked.
"Damn, Luca's body wasn't even cold yet" Sky comments
"Sky!" Jazz scolds
"Sorry, I keep forgetting other people have feelings" she apologizes.
"Oh my gosh, so are you going to get with Aaron now?" Ana asks
"I don't know, which is why I'm not ready to talk to Aaron about it. I haven't even seen Luca yet, and I don't know he'll feel about this whole thing" Zoey sighs
"How do you think he'll feel? He'll be heartbroken, especially since he came after you" Jazz says
"He came after me? Wait. What do you mean?" Zoey questions
"Doug told him you went to the airport, when you weren't answering his phone calls. So he went to the airport, but you had already boarded the plane by the time he got there" Jazz informs Zoey. Zoey was stunned at that information.
"Oh my gosh, that's so romantic" Ana exclaims
"This information makes everything so much harder" Zoey groans
"How are all these guys so into you?" Sky asks rhetorically
"I do not- I'm baffled" Zoey sighs.
"Well, instead of staying in here, I think you should go out there and talk to them. We're grown, we don't have time for child-ish games" Jazz suggests
Sky was bumping to the music having a good time, when she sees the same dude from earlier who did not pay the $20.
"Hey, I thought I politely asked you leave?" Sky questions him
"No, you we're actually really rude and asked me to leave" Rodney responds
"And yet here you are, do you happen to have a $20 to put in my hand" Sky says sassily
"Okay, look how about I take you out for $40 bucks worth of drinks this week to make up for it?" He asks
"Why $40? It's only a $20 cover charge" Sky asked confused
"Well, what kind of a place could I take someone like you for only $20?" He smirks
"Someone like me?"
"Yeah, someone super cute, a little terrifying" he continued
"Fine, but make it $60" Sky adds to the total.
We are all swag surfing to a bumping song and it was the last thing everyone did before the party was over.
We all started cleaning up, including Doug, Vivek, and Aaron. Sky was helping pick up trash, when she caught a whiff of something absolutely disgusting. That whiff was enough to make Sky feel nauseas, and book it to the restroom. She dropped her bag of trash and ran to the bathroom. She threw up her entire dinner, into the toilet. After expelling everything out of her stomach. Sky decided to stay on the cool bathroom floor. It helped with her nausea.
She hears a soft knock at the door, and she sits up and says "Come in" softly. Jazz slides in with a bean burrito in her hand, and shuts the door behind her.
"Sky, are you okay? You dipped so fast, I was worried" Jazz stated concerned, she then joins Sky on the floor.
"When did you eat a bean burrito" Sky cringes at the bean burrito in Jazz's hand
"Doug brought some, just now. What? You want a bite?" Jazz asks putting the burrito in Sky's face. The smell of the burrito caused Sky to puke in the toilet before she could even respond to Jazz.
"Damn, Sky you could've just said no" Jazz tries to joke. Sky normally would've laughed at the joke, but she's worried there is something wrong. Jazz get serious because of how Sky. "You keep getting sick for no reason. You're not-" Jazz stops mid-sentence. Sky knew what the rest of her sentence would be.
"You can't be" Jazz shakes her head.
"I think I might be pregnant, Jazz" Sky finally says.
"Might? You don't know for sure?" Jazz asks, and Sky shakes her head no. "You should've taken one as soon as you suspected!" Jazz scolds Sky.
"Jazz, you know my periods are usually irregular. So I naturally just ignored that sign, I didn't even suspect I was pregnant until I started throwing up everyday" Sky sighs.
"You and Junior been wrapping it up?" Jazz asks
"There have been a few times we haven't, but we was just pulling out during those times" Sky defends
"Oh my god, what are we gonna do?!" Jazz stands up immediately freaking out. "You can't be pregnant?" Jazz starts pacing the bathroom. Sky sitting by the toilet is watching Jazz go back and forth.
"Jazz, calm down" Sky advises, which Jazz ignores, and continues pacing. "Jazz, you're making me dizzy" Sky pleads again
"How can you be so calm, when you might be pregnant with a whole baby?" Jazz asks Sky, not understanding how she can keep her cool exterior
"Like you said, I 'might' be pregnant. There's no reason to freak out now, when we both don't know for sure. What we need is test" Sky responds, and Jazz shakes her head agreeing with Sky's plan.
"You're right" Jazz shakes her finger at Sky, with her lips turning up into a smile. "I'm going to get a test, right now" Jazz turns to head for the bathroom door when Sky stops her. By grabbing her leg
"You can't just go out there. Zoey is out there, and I don't want her to know I might be pregnant with her brother's baby" Sky explains, she can't even imagine how awkward that conversation would be.
"You're right, she'd flip her shit" Jazz sighs, and slides back down onto the floor
"So for now, I should clean up, and you should go out there and act like everything is normal" Sky tells Jazz. Jazz agrees and walks out the bathroom, and meets up with everyone in the kitchen. Everyone was greeting Nomi, because she just got in from her flight from Connecticut.
"How's Sky? Is she okay?" Doug asks as he notices Jazz's dazed face
"Oh nothing, she just had the shits" Jazz quickly says. Ana and Vivek start cracking up, while everyone else just cringes. Jazz takes a seat at the counter. Pretending to be listening to their conversation.
"Nomi! How was your summer!" Jazz asks
"Really good! It was good to spend time with my parents, who might I add are still supportive of my sexuality, and really tried to get to know more about me" Nomi beamed, Jazz smiles and nods
"That's honestly so amazing Nomi, oh my gosh!" Ana exclaims truly happy for Nomi. Jazz was still out of it, and Doug noticed.
Sky finally comes out of the bathroom, and everyone stares at her. Making her nervous that they knew. "What?" Sky questions everyone's looks
"How was your shit?" Ana comments, and everyone burst out laughing. Sky nervously laughs with them and flips them off.
"Oh hey Nomi! How was Alaska?" Sky asks
"I'm from Connecticut" Nomi rolls her eyes, and laughs at Sky's attitude.
"Girl, it's the same place" Sky shrugs
The next morning, Sky is woken up by Jazz shaking her viciously. "If you don't stop, I will slap you" Sky says groggily .
"Well it's time for you to take the test" Jazz informs her
"Jazz, its 5am. When did you get the pregnancy tests?" Sky questions
"I couldn't sleep all night, so I ran to the store just 30 min ago. Now, come on" Jazz begins to drag Sky out of bed and into the bathroom.
They enter the bathroom, and Sky walks over to the toilet, and pulls her pants down. "So you're gonna watch me pee?" Sky asks Jazz.
"I ain't going nowhere" Jazz huffs, Sky sighs and opens the box, and pulls out the test.
5 minutes pass, and the results come out. Sky picks up the test to get a better look, and there it was. The clear plus for positive. She drops the test onto the floor in shock. Jazz quickly grabs the test from the floor, to get a look for herself. Sky shuts down, she zones out, all of Jazz's rambling, and thinks to herself that she has a child growing inside of her. She then thinks about her athletic career. How it's all over. Tears start sliding down her face, and she slides off the toilet and sits on the floor. Jazz calms down from her rant, as her notices Sky crying. She down to Sky's level, and embraces her.
"Oh Jazz, what am I gonna do? I ain't ready to be nobody's mama. Dad, he's going to be so disappointed in me. They're probably going to kick me out of school, because who needs a pregnant track star. And Zoey, she didn't even like that I was hooking up with her brother. Now I'm carrying a Johnson. It's all over for me now" Sky sobs into Jazz's chest
"Your life isn't over, they can't kick you off the track team because you're pregnant. If they do we'll sue. And Sky your life isn't over, you have options" Jazz reminds Sky. Sky calms down and looks up at Jazz
"Before I even think of my options I have to tell Junior" Sky says sadly
"What for?" Jazz questions "If you tell him, then you'll have take his opinion into consideration"
"But Jazz, it's his baby too. He should be apart of the conversation of options" Sky reasons with Jazz. Jazz sighs and understands that's probably the right thing to do, but she honestly doesn't care about the right thing. She cares about what's best for her sister.
Sky picks up her phone and texts Junior. "Hey, we need to talk. When can you come over?" Sky sends
"Omw!" Junior replies quickly. Sky giggles, because she realizes he thinks he's getting some action. She shakes her head
"Hey do you want me here, when you tell him?" Jazz asks. "Actually no, I think you should try to keep everyone away from the house for at least an hour" Sky tasks Jazz.
"I'll try" Jazz says.
The doorbell rings, and she knows it Junior. So she gets up and heads to the door. She takes a deep breath and opens the door. As soon her eyes lock with Junior's he smiles. Before she could say anything, Junior crashes his lips into Sky's lips. Pushing them into the house, and closing the door behind them. He picks Sky up, and they drop onto the couch without breaking their kiss. Sky was already intoxicated by his touch. This is how she got in trouble in the first place.
Sky pulls away from the kiss, and Junior moves to her neck.
"You don't know how great your timing was, some pipes at Stevens & Lido burst, so they gave us the day off" He said through kisses. "You are definitely what I need" he recaptures Sky lips. She really needs to stop allowing this to happen and tell him. She pulls away from their kiss again, this time she says "Junior, we need to talk".
"We are talking" He chuckles and the vibration form his laugh sent shivers down Sky's spine. Junior tries removing Sky's oversized sweater.
"I'm not wearing anything under" Sky tells him, trying to slow him down
"That's even better" He smirks, Sky realizes she needs to stop in order to be taken seriously. She gets off of Juniors lap, and sits beside him.
"I have to tell you something" She says.
"Okay, what is it?" He asks
"You know how lately I've been bitchy-er than usual"
"Yeah, I've noticed. But I'm not complaining" Junior smirks making yet another innuendo.
"Well this past week, I've been extremely nauseous. So yesterday, I took and pregnancy test. And well..." Sky pulls out the test from her pocket and hands it to Junior.
His face looked like he'd seen a ghost. He puts his head in his hands.
"My parents are going to kill me. I'm so dead. They've already don't approve of my choice of not going to college, just wait till they hear this. I can't believe it" Junior says, in utter shock. He puts the pregnancy test on the coffee table, and sit back into the couch.
"How are you feeling?" He asks me, obviously not trying to focus on himself.
"Right now, I'm fine. But this morning, I had a small breakdown" Sky admits understanding Juniors reaction. He nods at her, and still shock over this whole thing
"It looks like we're going to be parents, depending on what we decide" Sky states
"We decide?" Junior repeats, and Sky nods her head
"Sky, I will be okay with whatever you decide. It's your body that's going to change. You do what's best for you, and I'll be by your side, for what ever you decide" Junior tells her, Sky sometimes forgets how sweet Junior is.
"Thank you, I appreciate that, Junior. Right now, I'm honestly in shock. I really don't know what to do" Sky sighs
"I get that, it's a lot you have to factor. It's not an overnight decision" Junior says, and rubs her back, to comfort her. She snuggles into his chest. She looks up into his eyes, and they both lean in, and kiss. Sky can't believe even after telling Junior she's pregnant, he still want to have sex with her. Not that she's complaining. The kiss deepens, and Junior grabs Sky and put her in his lap once again. Sky laughs at how they are so ridiculous.
Then the front door swings open, and Sky and Junior break their kiss.
"Jazz I don't want to get ice cream-" Zoey stares at Junior and Sky in Junior's lap. "If you two are gonna hook-up I would prefer it not be in the living room, or anywhere where I could see you" Zoey throws up a little in her mouth, Zoey was about to insult Junior when she noticed a stick on the coffee table.
"What's that?" Zoey asks
Sky, Junior, and Jazz all look the pregnancy test just sitting there on the coffee table for anyone to see. Sky immediately snatches the stick from the table.
"Nothing important" Sky says knowing realizing she's already seen it, so there's no use. Zoey walks over to Sky, with suspicion on her face.
"Why was there a pregnancy test on the coffee table?" Zoey presses, Sky sighs and pulls the rest out, and hands it to Zoey.
Zoey's eyes widen, as she loses the words to even say.
"The test is mine. I just found out I'm pregnant, and-"
"Junior is the father?!" Zoey finishes Sky's sentence. "Oh my god" Zoey grabs the nearest pillow and starts attacking Junior with it.
"Zoey, stop" Junior says trying to block the shots she's taking at him.
"This is for knocking up one of my best friends" Zoey says as she slams the pillow into Juniors side "This is for hooking up with her in the first place" She hits h again with the pillow. "And this is for making me an Aunty at 20 years old!" She slams the pillow into him, one last time. Junior doesn't respond but instead he rubs his new bruises. Sky starts laughing. Zoey, Junior, and Jazz all look at her like she's crazy.
"What's so funny?" Zoey questions.
"This entire situation" She laughs. "Junior is my baby daddy" She says laughing even harder, Jazz joins in on the laughter
"I'm carrying the first Johnson-Forster grandchild" She cackles Junior now joining in on the laughter.
"Now we're all related" Jazz adds Zoey couldn't hold her laughter any longer.
"Me being pregnant is the biggest joke of all" Now they we're all basically rolling over. Laughing so hard.
The laughter finally dies down, and everyone was just in their own head. Thinking about what's next.
"Doug has been blowing up my phone all morning" Jazz states looking at her phone.
"Why?" Zoey asks
"Because apparently last night, I looked like something was bothering me, and then I didn't text him back last night. So now he thinks there a problem between us" Jazz sighs
"Why were you a acting weird?" Zoey questions further
"Well Sky has just told me she thought she was pregnant. So I tried to act normal when I walked out of the bathroom" Jazz informs, Zoey nods her head.
"What if played a joke on him?" Jazz states definitely trying to cheer her sister up.
"What kind of joke?" Sky asks
"What if I sent a picture of your pregnancy test to Doug, and not say anything. Just send the picture" Jazz proposes
"That is best idea you've had all day" Sky smiles. Jazz picks up the test, and takes a picture of it, and texts it to Doug.
Doug, who is currently at lunch, with Aaron and Vivek. Is telling them there something up with Jazz.
"Guys, she's been dodging my texts all day. Did do something? This is mad annoying" Doug sighs
"Maybe her phones broken" Vivek suggests
"But on her Insta, it says she was active 5 minutes ago" Doug informs them. Vivek and Aaron shrug.
"On the subject of avoiding. Zoey, deadass ignored me all day yesterday. She didn't even look at me once" Aaron comments.
"Maybe, she's not ready to y'all about y'all kiss" Vivek suggests
"But still, acknowledge my presence. She kissed me, not the other way around" Aaron sighs. Doug checks his phone again, and sees a text notification from Jazz.
"Ha. She finally texted me back" Doug opens the message, only to reveal a picture positive pregnancy test. Dougs mouth drops open.
"Dude, what'd she say?" Aaron asked curious at Dougs reaction. When Doug stays frozen, Aaron snatches Doug phone from him, seeing the picture. Aaron's eyes widen in shock, and Vivek gasps.
"Congratulations?" Vivek says awkwardly.
"Well, I guess that would explain her behavior. She's pregnant" Aaron states.
"She can't be" Doug says completely shocked. "This is crazy, she's on the pill" Doug states
"Doug, those aren't 100% effective, they may be in the high 90s, but not 100%" Aaron states,
"Give me back my phone, I've got to respond" Doug tells Aaron.
"Before I give this back to you, I've got to make sure you don't reply with something stupid. You've got to gentle with these kinds of things" Aaron advises
"Dude, this me my phone" Doug says taking his phone back from Aaron.
He looks down and replies to Jazz's picture. "Please tell me your joking" He types honestly, because Doug is a stand up guy.
