Disclaimer: This end up.

Ashley stared at her friend asleep on the couch. Jen had passed out after dinner. Jen turned down the vodka slushies preferring a milk shake instead.

"So Wally West is coming back into town next week, I offered him a job." Charlie said casually.

John who had been watching Ashley watch Jen replied. "Wally's coming back? What happened?"

"I dunno maybe the girl he was dating broke up with him. He seemed depressed, Ash do you mind if Wally works with us?"

"What do you think is the matter with her?" Ashley addressed the two guys ignoring the question.

"What?" Charlie asked confused.

"She's not the same as when she came here. Haven't you noticed? She's so out of it, she's constantly eating, and she's always tired! Something has to be up."

"She has been drinking more milkshakes lately." John commented

Charlie sat in silent contemplation before saying, "She doesn't drink alcoholic beverages anymore…"

"Do you know why she came here?" John asked Ashley.

"She was running away from her boyfriend. I remember when I first met her, she was so broken. She had found her boyfriend sleeping with another girl."

"That makes sense. She doesn't talk much about her past except that her family's dead." John replied.

"I wonder if she's lonely." Ashley remarked.

"How could she be lonely when she has the three of us? How could she possibly be lonely?"

"Charlie, she means as in having a boyfriend lonely. I prefer being single while you and Ashley flirt more then friends should."

"We're just friends" Ashley glared at John trying to pretend she wasn't blushing.

John just nodded, smiling to himself.

"What about Wally? We could set them up!" Charlie exclaimed.

"What if she's not ready for another relationship?" Ashley asked.

"What better way to get over one relationship by getting into a new one?"

"It might be an unhealthy relationship if both Wally and Jen just got out of one." John countered.

"Let's see how they react to each other we can always decide later. They might hate each other." Ashley brought the two ideas together. "So it's agreed," She continued. "We'll look for chemistry and if we see it we will continue."

Ashley stuck her hand out. "Deal?"

John and Charlie followed. "Deal."

"I better get Sleeping Beauty home." Ashley nodded toward Jen. "How does she live with out a car?"

"You have one, you live with her, and you work at the same place. Why would she need one?" John rose to start clearing the table.

"Jen honey, it's time to go home." Ashley shook Jen lightly. "Come on honey."

Jen stirred "Mm no five more minutes!"

Ashley pushed the stray black hairs out of Jen's face. "Charlie will start stripping if you don't get up."

Jen shot up, "I'm awake I swear." She looked at Charlie hoping his pants were still on.

Charlie gawked at Ashley, "I take offense to that!"

"What happened...I'm so sorry! I can't believe I fell asleep!"

Ashley just stuck her tongue out turning her attention to Jen.

"Its okay, come on I'm going home."

Jen stood up following Ashley to the door.

"I'm so sorry, I feel awful."

John hugged her giving her a Tupperware container. "Don't worry, I saved you some dessert."

Jen smiled, "I owe you my life. I was starting to get hungry."

"I try." John lowered his voice nodding toward Ashley and Charlie who were awkwardly saying goodbye. "Will you look at them? I swear they're like third graders."

"They're just too nervous to admit that they like each other. I think it's sweet."

John rolled his eyes pushing Jen out the door. "Good Night Jen. Good Night Ashley."

"Night!" The two girls cried.

Jen tossed and turned in her sheets. Her thoughts ran in every direction. She sat up throwing the covers aside. The vision of her calendar had been haunting her dreams all night. Sitting on her bed with her head in her hands she started to think. 'Could I really be pregnant? We did use protection but I mean that's not 100 effective. Oh god…what am I going to do?' Jen stood up pacing her room. She needed a plan. 'Come on Jen you can do this. What was the whole H.I.V.E. Academy for if you can't put together a simple plan! I don't want Ashley to know but she'll get suspicious if I borrow the car for no reason, God why must I walk everywhere instead of using a car. Think…Okay tomorrow is my shift to buy food. I can go grab an EPT while I'm buying the food. I'll come home and take it with out Ashley knowing. Perfect!' Jen smiled satisfied with her self. She laid back down on her bed when another thought came to her, 'What if I am pregnant? What if…I'll deal with that when I get there, one step at a time. Just one step at a time.' Jen finally drifted off to sleep with one phrase in her head, "I can do this," Jen thought in her head, "I can do this…"

Jen had ran into the bar searching for Charlie. She needed to get the list and credit card from him so she could go shopping.

"Charlie where are you!" Her eyes flashing dangerously.

"Whoa Jen breathe what's the matter?"

"I need the list so I can go shopping for the stuff we need."

"Today's your turn? I thought it was Ashley's…."

"Just give me the list and the card Charlie, before I hurt you."

Charlie laughed nervously, "Hold on it's in my office just give me a second." He said before running away.

When he returned Jen grabbed the list with the credit card and ran out the door.

"Jeez what's wrong with her?" he muttered under his breath.

Jen had rushed through buying everything giving her ample amount of time to buy the test. Emptying the last of the bags into Ashley's car she drove toward CVS. Jen parked and got out of the car. At the door she stopped. 'Come on Jen you can do this!' She reached for the door. 'Or we could wait until tomorrow to find out no harm in today,' Taking her hand off the door in discouragement. Jen passed back and forth in front of the doors attracting unwanted attention. 'Let's just get this over with!' Jen walked into the building searching for the right isle. She felt relived when she found it; no men would pester her in the feminine products isle. It was dangerous territory for them. Jen searched the row until she found the required goods. 'I didn't think there would be this many…' "Can I help you?"

Jen jumped out of her skin. She turned glaring at the sales woman. The sales woman smiled, "This brand is highly effective and has a 99.9 error free result. Oh and it's on sale to."

"Thank you but I was looking at…"

"Its okay honey I won't judge you."

"What do you mean judge me?" Jen snapped.

"You might be pregnant and from what I can tell," The woman's eyes rested on Jen's unringed left finger, "You don't have the support to raise a child on your own."

Jen glared, "I'll take the E.P.T."

"That's a good choice, come on I'll check you out."

Jen followed the woman to the counter. "It's 5 dollars and 59 cents."

Jen pulled out a ten giving it to the woman.

"Hope everything works out."

Jen nodded walking back to the car.

Jen read the instructions on the box in the bathroom of her apartment. "Pee on the stick and wait. That's it?" She stared at the box in glee. "I can do this!"

After completing the first direction she waited for the stick to change color.

Jen stood there in the small bathroom her eyes fixed on the little window. After what seemed like hours there was a small plus sign. Jen stared at the box in disbelief, "That little fucker!" All her training to control her powers vanished in those brief moments. She willed her powers to summon, to feel that crack of bad luck at her finger tips, but nothing happened. Her powers were gone. "Probably to help protect the fucking gift he left me. Right?" She addressed the heavens above, "So when I make a mistake and want a little bad luck to take care of it it cant be done now can it!" She screamed in a rage as she grabbed the used test and box walking toward the trash can in the kitchen. After burying it in the trash and putting it in the garbage chute she sat on the couch drained of all energy. "Make sense now doesn't it. It's been sucking all of my energy, eating all my food and just AGH!"

Jen stared at her phone book contemplating her future. She was pregnant. But was she ready to be a mom? The mother of a child who's father was a fucking ass. 'Sure she wanted kids someday but not his. She couldn't think of a curse worthy of describing him. Jen looked at the ad for an agency similar to Planned Parenting in Gotham again. 'I have choices. I could put the baby up for adoption.' Jen tried to picture giving the baby away. 'Easy.' She then tried to imagine life knowing you had a baby out there but you couldn't hug it, talk to it, or be in its life. 'I don't have to have this baby. There's abortion I could always just go to the clinic and have it done. That would be fine…' Jen picked up her phone punching in the number.

"Hello? Hi yes this is Jen Scott. I'd like to schedule an appointment for Friday. Is that possible?"

"Three, that's great, thank you."

Jen hung up the phone. Glad that she was getting this taken care of and no one would have to know. The bar didn't open until five so she had plenty of time to go there and back. She would talk with the doctor and figure out the best plan for her to get this taken care of. Jen slid back onto the couch turning the TV on. Jen fell asleep to the hum of the TV and her hand on her belly.

Jen sat on an exam table in a baggy shirt and loose jeans. The nurse had left after taking her vitals leaving Jen to stare out the small window.

"Hello Jen, I'm Dr. Weaver," The man extended his hand. He was tall and well built. His black hair had grey brushing at the temples. His face was tan showing that he didn't spend all of his time in the hospital or was addicted to self tanner. He seemed to be in his mid-forties.

Jen shook his hand, "Have I seen you before?"

"You may have seen me on the cover of News Week with the quintuplet Siamese twins.

Jen shook her head, "No but I recognize you from some where recently."

"Um I recently was able to stabilize genes between meta humans so that they may have children but I don't think…"

"That was it!"

"You have an interest in gene stabilization?"

"Umm … no not really but … um I'd love to see Raven and Beast Boy together. They're my favorite super hero couple." Jen feigned interest. "To think I thought this would have a bunch of doctors who failed out of med school."

Dr. Weaver laughed. "No, this is the best clinic in the city and we pride our selves on it. Not all doctors are in it for the money we like to give back to the community to."

"The world never ceases to amaze."

"Now back on topic, what are you in for?"

"I'd like to schedule an abortion."

Dr. Weaver's face showed no emotion. "Are you sure that's your final choice. You have other options."

"I know, I've thought about it. This is the only way right now."

He nodded. "Alright, we'll need to perform a check up first. We need a blood test, urine test, and I'd like to ask you a few questions while giving you an ultra sound."

Jen nodded. "What do you want to do first?"

"Let's draw some blood then I'll give you the ultra sound, after that you can give us the urine sample."

"Okay."

"I'll be right back a nurse will be in to take your blood." He turned and walked away.

"Hello," A nurse greeted Jen.

"Hi."

The nurse rolled the sleeves of Jen's shirt up, she sterilized the inside of her left elbow while wrapping a green piece of rubber above it.

"This may sting a little."

Jen nodded, needles no longer phased her after all the gun shots, knifes, star bolts, and birdarangs.

"All done dear," The nurse placed a band aid where the needle had gone in. "Now just follow me to where the ultrasound is."

Jen sat down on a raised hospitable bed with her shirt pulled up revealing her stomach.

"This will be uncomfortable so just hang on."

Dr. Weaver rubbed jelly all over Jen's stomach sending shivers down her spine.

"Okay," He started pushing the transducer probe on her stomach.

"Do you want to see the baby?"

"No, I'm fine."

The doctor nodded. "So why are you giving the baby up?"

"Right now my life is very hectic and I can't support this baby on my current salary."

"Perfectly understandable, but do you know that the clinic can set you up with a job that you can do even during the last stages of pregnancy. They pay well."

"I like where I work." Jen glared. 'I've decided okay! You can't make me change my mind you stupid…'

"Does the father know?"

"What?" Jen knew what he had asked but why had he brought it up?

"I said…"

"I know what you said but why does it matter?"

"Well sometimes the Father would prefer to keep the child even when you don't want to."

"I don't know who the father is." Jen lied blatantly. 'He's not going to make me sign a freaking consent form. If he knew of course he'd want to keep it.'

"Alright it looks good. We just need you to sign some consent forms and we'll need a payment of 350 dollars."

"Okay that's fine."

Dr. Weaver wiped the rest of the jelly off of Jen.

"The nurse will be in with the forms. Go up to the front desk to make an appointment. Nice to meet you Jen," He extended his hand once more. Jen shook it.

"Nice to meet you too, thank you for everything."

Dr. Weaver nodded and walked out of the door.

The nurse walked back in with a pen and a file.

"Here you go, just read through these and sign your name."

Jen nodded as she picked up the pen starting to sign on the x's.

She took the papers to the front desk giving them to the secretary.

"When do you want to schedule your next appointment?"

"Next Monday if that's possible."

She flipped through her book, "Is seven o'clock good for you? That's the only time Dr. Weaver will be available."

"That's fine thank you."

"Just bring the money when you come next time."

"Okay thank you."

Jen walked out of the clinic toward the nearest subway station. Her mind was on repeat the entire way home, 'It's all going to be okay.'

A/N: So any guesses on what she's going to do? I feel some flames coming on but you were all so smart last time when I thought I was sneaky maybe you'll see whats going to happen or maybe not….. I'm really appreciative of all the reviews I've received and I'd like to thank:
