'Oh my god, Vixen!' she said in a terrified whisper. 'Who's is it? Is it Pietro's?' she asked coming up and standing next to her comfortingly and putting a hand on her shoulder.
'Probably.' shrugged the blond girl indifferently. 'But don't tell anyone. I don't want them to know.' Jade nodded ardently not meeting Vixen's gaze.
'Well…' Jade continued uncomfortably, 'I'd err… better go and… err…'
'You go.' said Vixen, breaking the awkward silence and letting Jade off. 'Promise you won't tell anyone.' the raven haired girl shook her head and put her finger to her lips in a locking motion before walking slowly out, leaving Vixen alone to put her make-up on.
A few days later, Vixen had forgotten her lie… whereas Jade hadn't. The secret was eating her alive and she had to tell someone.
'Hey… umm Kitty…' she whispered at the dinner table as the conversation blared around them. Kitty turned to her in moderated curiosity. 'I've gotta tell you something after dinner, okay?'
'Oohh…' replied Kitty inquisitiveness gushing through her. 'Gossip? Okay, my room.' Jade nodded and they both went back to eating their dinner, trying not to think about it.
Half an hour later, Kitty and Jade hurried up to Kitty's room and closed the door behind them.
'So… like what's the goss?' asked Kitty leaning forwards as she sat opposite Jade on her bed. 'Like, come on! I like totally need to like know!'
'Vixen told me something the other day…' started Jade hesitantly, feeling guilty that she was telling a terrible secret. 'She told me she thought she might be…'
'Over weight?' asked Kitty excitedly, 'Yeah! I thought she looked a little pudgy too-'
'NO!' cried Jade indignantly, 'She might be pregnant!' Kitty was stunned into silence (OMFG!!!!!!!), but then she laughed.
'Nah!' she replied, waving her hand superficially. 'She's not pregnant, she's on the pill. Jean told me she bought some with her.'
'What?' asked Jade incredulously. 'I can't believe that… but… umm… okay…'
'Come on!' exclaimed Kitty smiling. 'She's like always totally saying stuff to like hide what she like really feels.' Jade sighed uncomfortably.
'But what's she trying to hide?' asked the dark haired girl curiously, scratching her head and pulling her fingers through her silky hair.
