Talk at the Hospital

It had been two days since I had accidentally run Tori over. Robbie, Cat and I were in the hospital along with Tori's family. The doctor had given us good news. Tori only had fractures in her left arm and right leg and she would be out of the hospital in a few days although she'd have to spend a few weeks in a wheelchair. I had spoken with Tori's family and they understood that it was an accident and they said that they wouldn't press charges (although they told me this somewhat begrudgingly). I had also spoken to Tori and she said she wasn't angry at me anymore. So that made me feel a little relieved. But I still felt like crap. Not only did the date fail in terms of helping me get over Jade, I almost killed Tori. I don't know if anyone has ever had a date go so wrong. It sucks.
We were waiting in the lobby for the nurses to let us visit Tori when Jade and Andre came in. They had been notified about the accident with Tori yesterday so they cut their vacation short and came over as quickly as they could.
"How is she?" asked Andre.
"She's doing better. The doctors say she'll be just fine and that she'll be out in a few days," said Mrs. Vega.
"That's a relief," said Jade.
"How was your trip?" asked Cat.
"It was going fine until we heard about Tori," said Andre.
"Beck? Can I talk to you? Alone?" asked Jade suddenly.
My eyes shot up and I looked around anxiously, as if I weren't entirely sure that she was talking to me.
"S-s-sure..." I said. We walked out of the lobby out of hearing range from the others. I followed Jade down the hall until we stood in front of a janitor's closet. I was dreading the worst, since Jade and Andre had also been informed that I was the one who put Tori in the hospital. I expected her to yell at me and tell me I was stupid for hitting Tori with me car. I expected her to ask questions about the date, which would force me to either lie or tell her the truth about how I felt.
Oh how I wish that had happened instead...
"Beck...I know this isn't the best time to tell you this...but I think I might be pregnant."
Yep...I definitely wish what I thought had happened instead.
"What? H-h-how?"
"Well, one night on our trip after we had dinner, we both got a little excited so we kind of...did it...you know?"
"Yeah...go on..." I said, trying my hardest not to puke at the thought.
"Well...neither of us had protection but we were so caught up in the heat of the moment that we decided to risk it anyway. And I don't know...I've been feeling kind of sick lately so possibly..."
"Are you positive?"
"Not absolutely yet, I still have to take a test to see. I didn't want to tell Andre yet in case I'm not pregnant but I needed someone to talk to."
"So you chose me? Why not Tori? Why not Cat? Why not even Robbie?"
"Because I thought I could trust you. You know you're my best friend."
"I don't know. I'm just so confused right now."
"And how do you think I feel? I could have somebody else's child growing inside of me!"
"I'm sorry! This is just a lot to take right now. I don't have any idea how I can help you."
"You could try to at least be a little more supportive! I don't know what to do!"
"I don't know what to do either! And I don't even know if I want to!"
Oops...that could not have come out more wrong. Jade gave a small gasp of shock at what I had said. But then her face turned cold as she stared at me with frustration and anger.
"Wow...first the whole thing with Tori and now this. I thought you were a bigger person than this Beck...but I guess I was wrong...I'll see you later."
"Jade, wait!"
But Jade had already stormed off to rejoin the others. I couldn't believe how badly I kept screwing up. Within the span of a weekend, I severely hurt not only one but two of my closest friends, one of whom I was still in love with. Tori was trying to help me move on with my life and I had handled it horribly. I was mortified at the prospect of Jade getting pregnant by Andre and I had handled it horribly. It just seemed like everything I was doing or saying was having some horrible consequence that would cause me to regret it. My perfectly normal world was already beginning to fall apart and I could already feel myself falling. I leaned against the janitor door and slumped to the floor.I was practically traumatized by the things I had done this weekend. I tried to convince myself that this was just a bad weekend and that by next weekend, Tori would be out of the hospital, Jade would get over my behavior (and hopefully find out that she's not pregnant) and things could go back to normal.
But like I said, this was still only the beginning.
Tori's in the hospital, Jade might be pregnant and Beck is basically screwed.
caitlin23164 - I'm not going to end a story that fast. There's still more stuff for Beck to go through first. Who knows though? That might happen in the end.
livvylovesyou - Well, it was a Bade moment, but it wasn't a positive one. Who says all ship moments have to be good? BTW I don't know what SVP means.
GemmaLeigh - Tori probably thinks it is. I, on the other hand, say you can point while doing it if you want (Wow, I'm really screwed up). Thanks for the compliment! =D
WhiteChocolateAngel - Glad you like it so far. Originally Tori was just going to be hit by someone else but then I decided it would be more fun for Beck to hit her. Sucks for them both but great for the rest of us. =P
missamerika91 - I'm a bit surprised at the popularity of the decision to run Tori over with a car (I can only imagine how pissed people might be that she didn't die). Oh well, I'm here to write, not to judge.
Just Say'n - It may not have been a particularly positive Bade moment, but we got Bade nonetheless. But things will get better eventually. Right? RIGHT? PS. Thanks for the kudos. I loved writing Bloodshed. To other readers, if you haven't already, check it out.
Laury the Latrator - I think it's smooth and realistic...maybe? I won't know for sure 'til others compliment or flame me. Not looking good for Beck so far though.
