Running Away: A Camaya Pregnancy Story
Tori's POV
I met Maya in front of the Torres house. She was in a sweater and sweats. Her hair was in a loose ponytail. "So, who did you hook up with this time?", I asked her, not trying to be offensive. "No one. Audra's keeping too close an eye on me.", Maya replied. We walked for about 10 minutes and got to Maya's house. She hasn't been there in a month. Katie looked outside the window, she then walked outside and came over to us. "Maya.", Katie said simply. "Let's go, we'll be late.", Maya then said, ignoring Katie. We got into Katie's car. Maya wanted to sit in the back, so I sat with her. This silence was too awkward. Katie looked through the mirror at me and Maya, I gave her a look. She needed to try and start a conversation with Maya. "So, how is staying with Dallas?", Katie asked Maya as we pulled into the clinic's parking lot. Maya didn't answer, she just got out of the car and lead the way to the door, first Maya, then me, then Katie. I stayed in between them at all times. It might be best to keep them separated.
Maya's POV
I was slouched in my chair, arms crossed over my abdomen. I was starting to show, and that means no more boys. I don't know if Zig is ever going to be able to return to Degrassi. He doesn't remember anything, and never will. He has to learn from the bottom up again. I stopped feeling sick, and what was funny is that every time I made a dash to the bathroom, Dallas was right behind me, to hold my hair back. "Maya Matlin", the doctor came around the corner. I got up, looked at Tori, flashed a small smile and went back with the doctor. I sat down on the patient bed and she began asking me a series of questions: "How far along are you?", she asked first, typical doctors appointment. "3 months.", I responded. Wow, 3 months, crazy, right? "Taking any prenatal vitamins?". "No.", I responded. She seemed disappointed. "Alright. Have you had any sexual intercourse over the course of your pregnancy?". "Yes.", I responded. Ok, I know what you are all thinking, how could I be so disgusting? Well, it was only once and it was at least with someone I knew before it. And this is the one thing Tori will not know. So, don't spill the beans. "How many times?", the doctor asked, wow, she gets WAY to personal for my taste. "That is none of YOUR business.", I responded. I totally got my attitude from Katie. "This is only for medical purposes, Maya.", she said to me, then she paused, but she soon continued, "So, how many times did you engage in the activity?". "Only once.", I responded, looking down at the floor. "Alright, thank you. It's time to begin the examination. Lay down and lift your shirt.", I did as she said. She took out that cold gel that I saw in movies. She smeared it onto my stomach and turned on a machine. After a few minutes of waiting, she began moving this stick thingy around my abdomen. "Here's your baby.", she said to me, breaking at least a 15 minute period of silence. I looked over at the monitor. "Wow, it's so small.", I said, I felt tears coming on. If only Cam were here to see his beautiful baby. Well, I'm assuming it's beautiful, cuz all I see now is a blob. "Would you like to know the sex of the baby?", the doctor asked me, she looked at me with hopeful eyes. "YES!", I exclaimed very excitedly. "Congratulations, it's a girl!", the doctor smiled at me, and I smiled back. Wow, a little girl. Cam is missing so much. "Have a very nice day, and I'll see you in a few months. Please begin taking prenatal vitamins, and make sure if you are going to engage in sexual intercourse, it is protected intercourse.", the doctor said, and with that statement, I smiled at her, told her my thank yous and goodbyes and left the doctors room and went back to meet Tori and my terrible sister. "So?", Tori asked me, she obviously wanted to know the sex. "It's a girl!", I was so happy, I couldn't keep the smile off my face. "Oh my god!", Tori smiled, she got up and we hugged. "That's really great, Maya.", Katie said to me. I ignored her. "Let's go. Audra is setting out dinner in an hour.", I said to Tori and Katie. "Maya, wait. About that. I think it's time for you to come home. Mom really misses you, and I do to.", Katie said to me, and for the first time in weeks, I spoke to my sister. "No. I'm much better off at Audra's, with Dallas and Drew. They really help me when I'm down, and Audra is a lot more understanding than you and mom will ever be.", I shoot down my sisters plead for me to come home, and the rest of the car ride is silent. Katie stopped the car in front of Audra's house, and she began saying goodbye, but I got out of the car and slammed the door before she finished. I don't need them.
Dallas' POV
Maya walked into the house, she seemed really angry. "Well, how was it?", I asked her. Drew was sitting on the couch, he got up and came to stand over to me. We both towered over Maya, and we has to look down. The small little blonde girl looked like she was ready to kill someone. "Katie wants me to come home.", she said. She said nothing about the appointment. Me and Drew looked at each other, then back at Maya. "Why?", Drew asked her. "She said that her and mom miss me. Yeah right, I rather fork my own eyes out than go back there.", she went over and sat on the couch, and I called from behind, "Do you know the sex?". She turned her head and looked at both me and Drew, she suddenly got a lot more happy, I guess the news overrode her anger with Katie to happiness. "It's a girl.", she said, very straight to the point. I expected more of a reaction than just a simple 'it's a girl'. "Wow, congrats.", I said to her. "Yeah.", she said back. She turned her head back around and turned on the T.V. Oh, how I love the famous Matlin attitude.
Maya's POV
I woke up to Dallas' alarm clock, again. I've gotten used to it, it's almost an everyday thing. Dallas shut off the alarm and got out of the bed. I turned to face him. Why is he shirtless? Not that the view ain't nice, but, still. "Why you shirtless?, I asked him. "Why you looking, little Matlin?", Dallas asked me, jokingly. "Cuz I can, and I will.", I responded. He smiled, rolled his eyes and left the 'bedroom'. I have a connection with Dallas now. A connection in the worst way.
Tori's POV
I'm skipping school to spend a day with Tristan. Not by choice, though. He's still under house arrest, and he is until the trial in 2 weeks. But, this may be a good thing. I never really listened to Tristan after the accident. I walked up to his front door and before I was able to knock, Owen came out the door dressed in his hockey jacket, green button-down, and dark blue jeans. He looks pretty good, if I may say so myself. "Just don't kill each other.", he said to me as he walked to his car, got in and drove away. I walked inside then shut the door behind me. Tristan was sitting in the living room, no one was home, his mom and dad were at work, but they had 100% surveillance on him. "Hey Tris.", I could feel myself tearing up. "Tori.", he came over to me and hugged me, and that's when I lost it. He couldn't have done it. He's not like that. But, nope, he did do it. We parted, then I broke the news about Zig to him. "Zig has amnesia. He remembers nothing. His mom doesn't think he can go back to Degrassi. He's being put into a special school next year.", I was crying in between every word. "Oh my god.", Tristan managed to say, he was quite shocked. "You're a criminal, Tristan.", I said to him next. He looked at me like he had never met me. I never thought I would ever have to say that. "I don't want to go to jail, Tori. I didn't mean to anything wrong. I was just careless, that's all. I didn't mean to push Zig, and I didn't mean to yell at Maya. I didn't mean to ruin everyone's life. I was just angry, and scared, and confused, and overwhelmed. I reacted in the only way I knew best at that point. Please, please don't give up on me, Tori. I can't have anyone leave me like that, not again. I need you.", Tristan stood tall, with tears in his eyes. All I could do is stare in silence.
