Chapter Nine

:.:.:.:.:

I decided I should do what Tawni told me yesterday. She told me to get a pregnancy test just in case that was the reason to my problems.

I was at the drug store in a blond wig, with black baggy pants, and a black shirt. It wouldn't be good if someone saw me at the drug store, buying a pregnancy test, would it? I bought three pregnancy tests just to be sure on the answer. I drove back to the studio, and went straight to the bathroom. I took all three tests, and waited five minutes to see the answers.

Knock, Knock, Knock

"Sonny, are you in here?" Chad said on the other side. Crap!

"Uh, yeah! Just taking care of... some business." I said. Oh that sounds real nice. Especially telling it to your boyfriend.

"Oh, uh okay. I'll just be waiting for you out here." He said. I heard his feet walking away from the door.

My timer went off so, I looked at all the tests. They all had the same exact answer.

:.:.:.:.:

I was sitting on Sonny's leopard couch, waiting for her to get done with her business. I wanted to see what has been wrong with her. I don't want my Sonshine to be gloomy. I heard Sonny doing something on the other side of the door. Then, she opened it. She was wearing all black for some reason.

"Hey." Was all she told me. She seemed distracted.

"Hey." I said walking up to her.

"What's wrong Sonshine?" I asked quietly. She didn't look at my face, she looked everywhere else but at my face.

"N-nothing." She said looking down. I thought I saw a tear escape from her eye. I lifted her chin up so, she could look me in the eyes.

"Sonny, you know you can tell me anything, right?" I told her. She could tell me anything. No matter what it is.

"I k-know Chad." She said starting to cry. I pulled her to my chest giving her a hug. She cried all over my white shirt I was wearing. I didn't mind at all. But, what has her so upset. We stayed in each others arms until Blondie came in.

"What's wrong Sonny!" Blondie said running up to Sonny. Sonny kept crying, she didn't say anything.

"What did you do to her Chad?" Blondie asked.

"Why are you accusing me? I didn't do a thing to her!" I yelled.

"Yes you did! You got her fucking pregnant probably!" Blondie yelled then, slapped her hand to her mouth.

What?

"P-pregnant?" I asked, I could barely work a word out. Blondie didn't say anything so, I turned to Sonny.

"Sonny, is that t-true?" I asked. She looked up a me. Her eyes were red, and glassy looking.

"C-c-chad I'm so, so, so, s-sorry!" Sonny cried out. I couldn't blame her for this. I mean we both caused this. I took her in my arms, and hugged her.

"C-chad, what are w-we going to d-d-do?" Sonny whispered in my chest.

"I don't know but, I'll always be here for you." I told her. I would never leave her, like some men would do because, they chicken out.

"I guess I'll be going now. Talk to you later Sonny." Blondie said running out.

"Sonny, how long have you known?" I asked her.

"I just found out. In the bathroom. That's what I was doing, taking the tests." She said calming down a little.

"Are you sure it was positive?" I asked because, sometimes those damn things lie to you.

"I took three Chad. They all said positive." Sonny told me.

"Oh." Wow, three positives?

"Chad, I have to tell my mom. I don't know what to say, she doesn't even know I had sex! She's going to be so disappointed in me." Sonny said sitting down on the orange couch. I sat down next to her.

"Sonny, she will understand. But, the longer you wait to tell her, the more upset she will be." I said quietly.

"Your right. I'll tell her tonight." She said putting her head on my shoulder.

"Well, its getting late, its already 6:48. I can give you a ride home?" I asked.

"Sure, let me just get my purse." She got up to get her purse, and we headed to my car, and went to her apartment.

We arrived at 7:07. I wondered if I should be with her when she tells her mom?

"Hey Sonny?" I asked.

"Hm?" She asked with her eyes shut.

"Do you want me to be with you when you tell your mom? You know so, we can do it together?" I asked.

"Oh no Chad, no need. She will probably be to pissed anyways she would kill anyone who she can get to. And, she would go after you because, I'm pregnant." She said.

"Are you sure Sonny?" I asked again.

"Didn't I say you don't need to come the first time?" She snapped. Mood swings.

"Okay, sorry." I said quietly.

"I'm sorry for snapping Chad. I'm just stressed out. A lot to deal with in one day. I'll see you tomorrow." She said. She kissed me, and went in her apartment. I guess I'll call her later to see how her mom took it.

I drove home to my place. I live about twenty minutes from Sonny's apartment. I also live alone. My parents travel all the time so, they are never home. I don't mind, I've always lived alone before. Why let it effect me now?

:.:.:.:.:

When I went into my apartment I looked around for my mom.

"Mom, I'm home!" I yelled.

"Calm down Sonny I'm right in here." My mom said from the living room.

"Sorry." I said.

"Listen mom, we need to talk." I said, walking towards the couch to sit next to her.

"Sure honey, what's wrong?" She asked.

"Well, I uh, I took something today." I said afraid to break the news. Its not easy telling your mom, 'oh I had sex, and because of that I have a growing baby inside me!'

"Honey are you taking drugs?" My mom said started to raise her voice at me. Wait drugs?

"No! Mom, why would I do that?" I said trying to calm her down.

"Then, what did you take?" She asked. Oh no, here it comes.

"I-I took a-a-a pregnancy test." I choked out. The room went dead silent. I hate silence, it's like death.

"Why would you need to do that Alison?" She asked using my first name. Uh oh, she only uses my first name when I'm in trouble.

"Because, I had sex, and I had signs of being pregnant." I said quietly.

"When, and, who?" She asked.

"I had it, when I was in college, and to who was...Chad." I said Chad's name so low I don't think she heard me.

"Damn it, I knew he was trouble!" She yelled.

"Mom, no. I told him I wanted it, if you need to blame someone, blame me." I said defending Chad. He better pay me back.

"Why Sonny?" She asked putting a hand on my shoulder.

"I don't know mom. I guess because, I love him." I told her. She just nodded, and pulled me into a hug.

"We all make mistakes honey." My mom said still hugging me.

"Why don't you get some rest, and go to sleep." I nodded, and walked to my room.

Then, after three minutes in my room, my phone rang.

Chad, it read.

"Hello?"

"Hey Sonshine, how are you holding up?"

"Pretty good, my mom took it bad at first but, then she told me we all make mistakes."

"That's good Sonny. See I told you, you would be fine."

"I know, I know, I'm going to get off I'm tired. Love you."

"I love you too Sonshine, and don't you forget it."

I hung up the phone with a smile on my face. Then I thought,

How are Chad, and I going to raise this baby if we live 10 miles away from each other, in different homes?
