"I did it." Rachel said to her mum while she stepped out of the bathroom. It had been 3 weeks since Rachel had told Shelby that she thought she was pregnant.
"Mum, I have to tell you something." Rachel asked her Mother nervously.
"Go ahead sweetie," Shelby replied while stroking Rachel's hair.
"Mum, will you stand by my side through anything?"
"Of course I would honey, what's going on?" Shelby asked with curiosity.
"Finn slept over the other night," Shelby looked at Rachel strangely, "And when I say slept over I mean, he didn't really sleep. Neither of us did." Rachel looked at her mother's blank expression, searching for an answer.
"Oh..OH! You mean you..."
"Yep," Rachel cut her mum off, "I didn't even realise what was happening, I got so caught up in the moment and I'm pretty sure Finn forgot protection. I didn't mean to mum. I'm so sorry.." Tears got the best of Rachel. Her sentence got cut short from choking on her tears. Shelby grabbed Rachel and hugged her. Rachel sat in her mum's arms. She felt so bad
...
Rachel walked over to her bed and sat next to her mum. She sighed. She was hoping the test wouldn't come up with three ticks. It took three minutes, one for each sign, for the test to reveal the answer. The first minute passed and a tick appeared. Rachel's heart skipped a beat and she buried her face in her hands. Shelby wrapped her arm around Rachel's body,
"It's only one tick, remember if you get one cross out of three it means you're not pregnant, you still have two spots left." Shelby stated encouragingly. The next minute seems to go for hours, and when it was time for the next symbol to show itself, it came up with a tick. Rachel gasped and walked over towards her desk. She gave the pregnancy test to her mum. She couldn't believe what was happening. Two out of the three spots had confirmed her pregnancy. The next minute had ticked over and she spun around to look at her mum. Shelby was looking at the test. She looked up at Rachel and smiled. Shelby held up the test to show that a cross had come up on the last one. She couldn't believe it. She screamed in happiness, while Shelby walked over to Rachel and hugged her. She sighed and then laughed.
"Well that was a bit of a scare wasn't it!" Shelby said while hugging her daughter. Rachel nodded. She walked over to her bed and picked up her phone. She pressed speed dial and only two rings later, Finn picked up.
Finn answered, "Have you done it yet?"
"I have, and were safe. I'm not pregnant!" Rachel replied happily.
"That's great!" Finn said. It was like this big weight had been lifted off his shoulders, "So what happens now, I mean between us.."
Rachel cut Finn off, "Finn I have to go, I'll talk to you later yeah?"
"Sure. Bye" Finn said before hanging up.
Rachel dropped the phone and clutched her stomach; she let out a groan that turned into a scream. Her mother ran into the room. Rachel was sitting on the edge of her bed, clutching her stomach.
"Rach, what's wrong?" Shelby yelled while she ran over to her daughter's side. Rachel didn't say a word. She just sat there clutching her stomach. Shelby didn't bother for an answer, she grabbed Rachel's phone and dialled in 000.
The voice on the other end picked up on the first ring, "Police, fire or ambulance?"
"Uh, I need an ambulance 5 Stuart Street immediately my daughter is in lots of pain she needs to get to hospital NOW!" Shelby babbled out in one quick sentence.
"We will send one right away."
Shelby ran downstairs to wait for the ambulance. She heard footsteps coming from Rachel's bedroom. She ran back up the stairs and saw her daughter trying to walk down the stairs. She picked her up and carried her daughter down the stairs. She still had the wheelchair from when she came home sitting in the corner. She placed Rachel in that. Just as she did it the ambulance pulled into their driveway. She ran out and started blabbering to the ambulance driver about what happened. The ambulance driver stopped her and walked into the house. He immediately spotted Rachel in horrible pain, and walked over to her.
"Where's the pain?" the doctor asked with no hesitation.
Rachel said nothing but cringed her face as she pointed towards her rib cage. The doctor lifted her shirt and gasped. A huge dark purple spot covered her rib area. The paramedic ushered for the other paramedic he was with to bring in the stretcher.
Shelby panicked, "What the hell is wrong with her?"
The paramedic replied, "I think it's just a couple of broken ribs, but I'm not completely sure that's all." The other paramedic cut off the situation by rushing in with the stretcher. They loaded Rachel onto the stretcher and carted her out into the ambulance. Shelby sighed and punched Finns home number into her phone.
Finns mother picked up, "Hello?" She answered in a sweet tone.
"Hi Carole, I would love to chat but is Finn there?" Shelby replied.
"No Shelby, he's at school. Isn't Rachel there?" Carole asked in a questioned tone.
"Uh no she's had an accident. We think one of her ribs are broken, and she's heading out to the hospital as we speak. Would you mind coming out?"
"I'll be five minutes Shel, hang tight I'm coming to get you." Carole answered before she hung up. Shelby walked out to Rachel's side.
"Honey I'm going to wait here until Finns mother comes to pick me up. I won't be long I promise. I love you honey." Shelby explained to Rachel.
Rachel nodded, "I love you." She whispered. Shelby let go of Rachel's hand and walked back a couple of steps. Tears started to fall from her eyes. The paramedics loaded Rachel into the back of the ambulance. Shelby wiped away her tears and crossed her arms. She couldn't stop thinking about her beautiful daughter, and all the pain she was going through. Just as she turned to walk back into the house, Carole pulled up in the driveway. She left the car running and hopped out. She walked up to Shelby and gave her a hug,
"Come on lets go." Carole said to Shelby. Shelby walked over and hopped into Carole's car. She looked out the window and sighed. What happened from here? She would just have to wait and find out.
