Chapter Five

"You've really hurt her you know"

Cameron closed his locker to see Amber, his ex-girlfriend and Nikki's best friend, he sighed "What did she tell you?"

"That you two are on a break"

"Yeah we are"

"Why? You need as many people as possible right now"

"I know, but I don't need a girlfriend who's constantly asking if I'm ok. I can't deal with all that right now"

"She cares about you"

"I know she does"

"So don't you care about her?"

"I do...just not like that"

Amber sighed "Does this have anything to do with the fact that she freaked out about Ella?"

"No...though she did over react" He replied "I just need time to clear my head"

He'd decided not tell anyone at school about Abi yet. It was too soon, plus Nikki would kill him...well she wouldn't but everytime she looked at him, she'd be imaging it

"She really misses you"

"Hmmm"

"Don't you miss her?"

"Not really"

Amber frowned "Why are you being like this?"

"Like what?"

"Moody and distant, from like, everyone"

"I have a lot on my mind"

"But you were dealing with this before you moved away, why change now?"

He hesitated, should he tell Amber? Just to get her off his back?

"I don't want to talk about ok?"

"Well Nikki will ask...and want to know when you're getting back together"

"I know and she'll get all the same answers as you"

...

Abi knocked on the door of Cameron's house, Joanne answered "Hey Abi"

"Hey, is Cameron home yet?"

"Not yet, but you can wait in his room if you like"

"Ok, thanks Aunt Jo" Abi called Joanne 'Aunt' as she'd been around for long as she could remember, even her sisters said it.

She sat waiting on Cameron's bed, remembering what they'd done three nights ago, she went tingly at the thought...

Cameron came in to his room "Hey" He smiled

"Hey" She patted the bed, he sat beside her

"How's your day been?" He put his arms around her

"It sucked...yours?" She leant against him

"Yeah...I couldn't stop thinking about you"

"Me neither"

Cameron gently kissed her, trying to ignore the hot, passionate vibe that was running through him, just like last time they were sat here...but he couldn't. As they pulled a part, he said "Where's a condom when I need one?"

She smiled slightly "Doesn't David have any?"

"No, I checked when you left the other night"

"Why don't we do it with our clothes on?" She kissed him "Just so we can feel that the other person there"

"So you mean, leaning and touching, but not connecting?"

She nodded "Yeah"

He brought her close, and they kissed, the passion and heat returning

Cameron could feel himself getting hotter as he and Abi brushed against each other, he was resisting the urge to undo his jeans.

"Cam" She said breathlessly, pulling away from him "I don't care if we don't have a condom, do you?"

"Not anymore" He said. He pulled his trousers and boxers down enough to get it out as she pulled off her underwear, keeping her skirt on

As they kissed like they never had before, they stood up, leaning in to each other, groaning and moaning.

Cameron sat on the bed, Abi sat on him, pushing herself against him...

"Kids?"

They both gasped, Abi junped off him and pulled on her underwear as he pulled his boxers and jeans back up

"Yeah?" They both called

Joanne put her head around the door "Me and Ella are heading to the store, do you need anything?"

Cameron sighed "Mom...please can you get me some condoms?" He felt himself going red

"What?"

"If you hadn't walked in then...me and Abi would be having sex right now"

"Funny joke Cameron..."

"He's not kidding Aunt Jo" Abi said

"So you two are really ready to have sex?"

"We think so" Cameron said

Joanne sighed "Ok, I'll get you some...but Abi?"

"Yeah?"

"Promise me you'll talk to your mom about going on the pill"

"I will, whether she'll listen to me is a different story"

"Well if she doesn't get you them, I'll talk to her" She left the room

"I can't believe you asked her" Abi said

"I know" He fell back on the bed "At least we don't have to hide the fact that we're doing it anymore"

"Yeah, my Mom won't get me the pill"

"I guessed" He sat up "Mom might get you them, on our health plan"

"Hmm...I'd rather not go on the pill though, incase I forgot"

"Maybe me using protection would be better..."

"Yeah" She leant on him "Is that ok?"

"Fine" He said "Doesn't bother me"

...

Abi woke up with a stomach ache.

It was three weeks after she and Cameron had first had sex, she'd ignored the other signs, missed period and her chest feeling sore and swollen. Her period was late sometimes, didn't mean anything, and maybe her flat chest was finally growing. But she couldn't ignore a stomach ache, not one like this.

She thought about staying home, her mom would never notice, but wasn't that the whole point of staying home? A loving mother to nurse you back to the health? And if she couldn't, she took you to the doctor...?

Abi pushed the thought of a doctor to the back of her head, a long with all her symptons, a doctor wouldn't help, they would only say that the thing she was trying to deny was true.

She stood up and felt a pain run across her stomach, she knew what was coming and ran into her en suite...which was unfourtnatly right next Ashley's room

She tried to be as quiet as possible, but it was hard to control the volume

Brittany and Ashley were Ashley's room when Abi was being unwell, and they could hear her

They pressed their ears against the wall and listen

"Do you think she's going bulimic?" Ashley asked her sister

"I don't know"

"Should we tell mom?"

"No way, she needs to lose some weight anyway"

Back in the bathroom, Abi sat against the shower cubicle, thinking of everything that was happening to her right now, she knew all the signs pointed to it.

She hadn't felt right for a couple of weeks, before she had the symptoms.

She thought about admitting it to herself, but she changed her mind, she wasn't going to admit it until she had some confirmation...maybe not even then
