"Jo!" Cami said, she was stroking my hair.
I opened my eyes. She and Logan were knelt by my side.
"Are you okay?" James asked as he and Logan lifted me to the nearest chair.
I nodded rubbing my head. "i think so"
"What happened?" Carlos asked.
"I...don't know" I replied. "i felt fine when I got up, I followed all of you but as I left the room suddenly I felt dizzy next thing I am on the floor"
Logan felt my forehead "You don't feel hot you didn't hit your head did you?"
I shook my head "i feel fine now"
"Have you eaten?" James asked.
"No but I am not hungry"
Cami took my hand "that is probably why you collapsed, come on we'll go get a snack"
"There could be many reasons why you collapsed" Logan said "We should get a doctor to check you over just be sure that everyone is okay"
Cami helped me to my feet.
The guys were all stood around me as if they thought I would collapse again.
"I'm fine now thanks guys" I said.
"Humour me and we'll do that test" she whispered as we walked away. "Don't fight me on this you know yourself you need to know"
I sighed. Deep down I agreed with her. I do need to rule it out. But what if it gives me the answer I don't want? What if it is positive?
Cami smiled at me as we reached the cafe "but first things first we need to get some food"
We queued up and Cami passed me a tray. We helped ourselves a sandwich each and ordered some hot chocolate before sitting down opposite each other.
"Are you sure you are feeling better?" Cami asked, taking a bite of her sandwich. "you still look paler than normal"
I nodded and sipped my hot chocolate "I probably got up too fast"
Cami took my hand "I love you honey but eat your sandwich you need to look after yourself for Kendall"
I ate slowly, favouring the hot chocolate more than the sandwich. The sandwich tasted like carpet, it wasn't nice. I was craving a takeaway right now because of it. Maybe later we can stop past Mcdonalds or an indian.
I could tell that Cami was desperate for me to take that test. She tapped her fingers against the table impatiently.
"What?" I asked. I knew full well what she was thinking it was fun to keep her waiting. She groaned and pulled me to the toilets. "Wait there"
I leaned against the sinks as she checked under each cubicle. "What are you doing?"
She didn't reply. "Right we are alone" she said pushing me into the cubicles "it can't wait any longer"
I breathed deeply sitting on the toilet playing with the box in my hands. On one hand it would stop me worrying but on the other then if it gave the answer I didn't want, it is going to change my life forever and Kendall's too. Maybe I shouldn't do this, maybe I should wait until Kendall wakes up. Maybe I should be doing this with Kendall. We should be doing this together.
Cami knocked on the door "tell me you have opened it at least"
"I'm reading the instructions" I replied. I shook my head and ripped open the box.
"Jo if you don't want anyone to know what we are up to then hurry up" Cami said "Remember any of our friends from the Palm Woods could walk in at any moment and then the secret is out"
"There might not be anyway" I muttered. There was nothing I wished for more in the world, apart from Kendall waking up, that the test would be negative.
I closed my eyes as I did it. I didn't want to remember this moment. Maybe I was dreaming? Maybe this is a dream that I will wake up from very soon.
"Done" I announced a few minutes later as I came out the cubicle. I put it on the counter as I washed my hands. "We have to wait two minutes for the results" I said as Cami was trying to look at it. "it won't show anything until then?"
"And what are you going to do if it is positive?" Cami asked me.
Honestly I didn't know the answer. I don't know what I am going to do with any of it. I felt sick just thinking about it. Besides its not just me who it will affect.
The door burst open before I could reply.
"Jo, Cami we are so glad we have found you" the Jennifers said in unison. "we have great news"
The three of them were almost jumping up and down in the delight. The last time they were like this the mall were giving away designer make-up goodie bags.
"Wait they haven't released another shade of pink for lips have they?" I asked sarcastically.
"No but that would be so cool" One of them said.
"No Kendall is awake, the doctor is checking him over" they said. I sped out of the room without even saying thank you to them and the pregnancy test was forgotten. All that matters right now is Kendall.
