Two weeks had passed. Prom was this weekend and graduation was the day after that. Everyone was excited but Sam had other things on her mind. She tried to hide something was bothering her as best she could. She prayed she was wrong. Randy was pulling into a parking space at school. He got out of his car and started walking.
"Hey man." John said coming up next to him.
"Hey."
"Can you believe this is the last week of school?"
"I know but college is gonna be awesome." "I'm gonna miss Sam so much though." "I mean I'm not gonna get to see her for a year."
"Yeah that's gonna suck for you." "You don't really want her to go do you?"
"Honestly no but I can't tell her that because then she won't go." "I know how much becoming a doctor means to her." "So I have to let her go." "No matter how much it'll hurt."
"Speaking of Sammy, where is she?"
"She's gonna be late today she had to help her mom with something."
AJ and Phil were in there chemistry class. They were paired up again.
"AJ is Sam sick?" Phil asked.
"No why?"
"I didn't see her this morning."
"She'll be here later." "She told me she had to help her mom this morning."
"Oh." "AJ um, you're going to the prom right?"
"Yeah."
"Do you have a date?"
"No."
"Do you wanna maybe, go with me?"
"Really?" She said trying to hide the shock in her voice. "I mean yes."
"Great."
Sam was in a doctor's office. The nurse came out.
"Samantha Jenner?" She said.
Sam stood up and went back into an examination room. Ten minutes later the doctor came in.
"Hello Samantha." "I'm doctor Jacobs." The doctor said.
"Hello."
"Have you been to "Planned Parenthood" before?"
"No."
"So you suspect that you are pregnant?"
"Yes."
Sam made it to school by second period. It was lunchtime now. Sam was sitting at the table. AJ sat next to her.
"Sam you'll never believe what happened today." AJ said.
"What?"
"Phil asked me to the prom."
"That's great." She said trying to sound happy.
"Sam are you ok?"
"I'm sorry that really is great." "I just have a lot on my mind."
"Sam what's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong."
"You're lying."
"Come with me."
They got up and went to the Girls bathroom. Sam made sure they were alone.
"Sam what's going on?" AJ asked.
"I wasn't helping my mom today." "I lied." "I'm so scared."
"Why?"
"I'm pregnant."
"What?" AJ said shocked. "Are you sure?"
"Yeah." "I was at "Planned Parenthood" they did a test and it came back positive." "That's not even the worst part."
"What do you mean?"
"I'm four weeks pregnant."
"Four weeks." "Oh god that means…
"Yeah." "Randy's not the father." "It's John's baby." She started to cry. "What am I gonna do?" AJ hugged her.
"It's gonna be ok Sam."
"I don't see how."
A few nights later everyone was at prom. Trish and John were the only ones without dates. Sam and AJ went outside.
"I figured out what to do about the baby." Sam said.
"What did you decide?"
"I'm not keeping it."
"You're getting an abortion?"
"No I'm giving it up for adoption."
"Are you sure that's what you want to do?"
"I have to." "I can't disrupt John's life and future." "Or ruin the friendship between John and Randy." "No one will see me for a year." "I can give birth in London and no one but me and you will ever know." "It has to be our secret, forever."
"Ok."
They went back inside. A half hour later the principal went up on stage.
"It's time for the announcement of prom king and queen." The principal said. "Your 1997 prom king is…John Cena. John was surprised he won. He went up onstage and got his crown. "Now for your prom queen." "Your 1997 prom queen is…Samantha Jenner." She went up on stage and got her crown.
As was tradition Sam and John had to slow dance with each other. They went to the middle of the dance floor and started to dance.
"You look beautiful tonight Sammy." John said.
"Thank you." "You look handsome."
"Thanks."
The next day everyone had just graduated.
"We graduated." Sam said. She went to AJ and hugged her.
"I know." "I can't believe it."
"Two more days then London here we come."
"Yep."
"So did anything happened with you and Phil last night?"
"No." "He was a gentlemen."
"Sammy." John said from behind her. She turned around. "Congratulations."
"Thanks." Sam said. "Congratulations to you to."
"AJ take a picture of me and Sam." He handed her a camera. He picked Sam up like a bride.
"John." Sam said laughing.
"Smile Sammy." They looked at the camera and smiled. The picture took.
"Yo Cena get your hands off my girl." Randy said jokingly as he came up to them. Sam and John looked at each other. He put her down.
