A Little Over A Month Later…05/29/2012 6:00 AM

I awaken to the sound of yelling. After wiping the sleep out of my eyes, I sit up and stretch.

"Jade!" Tori yells.

"Jade!" Tori yells again. I get out of bed and rush into the bathroom. Tori's on her knees in front of the toilet and she's throwing up. I walk over to Tori, drop to my knees next to her, and start rubbing her back. She's crying and shaking.

"Shhhh baby. I'm here now. You're ok. Shhhhh. You're ok." I say. A few seconds later…she's done throwing up.

"Are you ok now?" I ask Tori. Tori shakes her head yes. I stand up, help Tori up, and the both of us walk over to the sink.

"This…this is the third morning in a row that you've thrown up." I say.

"I…I know." Tori says.

"Do…do you think you could be pregnant?" I ask Tori. The thought crossed my mind the first morning that she threw up, and the second morning, and now, I am almost certain that Tori's pregnant. I'm scared out of my mind; but I'm trying to stay strong, for Tori.

"Oh…oh god. I…fuck. What…what am I going to do Jade? I…I don't…I'm not ready for a kid. We're…we're not ready for a kid. I…I…" Before Tori can finish her sentence, I interrupt her.

"Shhhhh baby. It's ok. Shhhhhh. We don't even know if you're pregnant yet. We'll go get a pregnancy test after school…ok?" I ask Tori.

"O…ok. I…what am I going to tell my parents? What am I going to tell my friends? What…" Before Tori can finish her sentence, I interrupt her.

"Baby…baby…baby…baby…baby. You need to calm down. We don't even know if you're pregnant yet. Why…why don't we worry about telling our parents and friends after we find out whether or now you're pregnant, ok?" I ask Tori.

"O…ok. I'm sorry Jade. I'm sorry I'm freaking out. I'm just scared. Really, really, really scared." Tori says.

"I know baby. I'm scared too. I…I don't want you to be pregnant; but if you are pregnant, we can quit using condoms when we have sex." I say jokingly.

"Jade!" Tori says.

"I'm sorry baby. I'm just trying to lighten the mood. I know you're upset. I'm sorry I wasn't more careful. I'm sorry." I say.

"It's…it's ok Jade. You…you always wore a condom, always; but sometimes condoms break, and…and a lot of times, couples don't notice it when a condom breaks, and we're probably one of those couples, and…" Before Tori can finish her sentence, I interrupt her.

"You're babbling baby." I say.

"I…I know. I'm sorry. I'm just scared. What if I'm pregnant Jade? What are we going to do? Abortion's out of the question, so that means that we're either going to keep it or give it up for adoption, and…" Before Tori can finish her sentence, I interrupt her.

"Tori baby…you need to calm down, ok? We'll figure this out…ok? Ok?" I ask Tori.

"O…ok. Ok." Tori says. Now it's my turn to panic.

"If you are pregnant, people…people are going to ask questions, and…and I don't think I'm ready to give them answers. They're…they're going to ask us who the father is, and…and I don't know if I'm ready to answer that question. Cat…Cat and Trina know that I have a penis; but the…the rest of our friends don't and…and the…the rest of the school doesn't know, and I…I don't know if I'm ready to tell people that…that I was born a…a hermaphrodite. Oh god. What are we going to do? What's going to happen to us? We're too young to have a kid. Oh god. I…" Before I can finish my sentence, Tori interrupts me.

"It's ok baby. Shhhhh…let's cross that bridge when the time comes…ok?" Tori asks me.

"Ok." I mumble.

A Few Hours Later…4:05 PM (A.N. Sorry to skip ahead so much.)

Tori and I rarely talked to anyone during school. We mostly kept to ourselves. Everyone asked us if we we're feeling ok, and Tori and I told everyone that we were feeling fine; but in all honesty, we were both scared to death. After school, Tori and I went to Walmart and bought a pregnancy test, and now, we're in my bathroom.

"O…ok. It…it says that I have to…to pee on the pregnancy test, and…and then wait 10 minutes for the results. A plus sign means that I'm pregnant, and a negative sign means that I'm not pregnant." I say.

"O…ok. I'll…I'll leave you be, so you can pee." I say.

"O…ok. Ok." Tori says. After giving Tori a kiss on the cheek, I exit the bathroom, walk over to my bed, and sit down. A couple of minutes later…Tori exits the bathroom, walks over to the bed, and sits down next to me.

"Ten minutes." Tori mumbles.

Ten Minutes Later…4:17 PM

"Oh my god!" Tori says rather loudly.

"Oh…oh god. You're…you're pregnant." I mumble.
