A week had passed. AJ was dreading the possibly of maybe being pregnant. If she was she didn't know what she would do or how she would tell John. She knew she should take a pregnancy test or go to a doctor but she was to afraid of what they would tell her. She'd been throwing up every day for the last week. She was at the arena in the Diva's Locker Room in the bathroom. She'd just come out from throwing up again. She stood in front of the mirror rinsed her mouth out and to cry.
"AJ." "What's a matter?" Katilyn said coming out a stall and standing at the sink next to hers. "Is it John?"
"In a way yes."
"If it has you this upset just sit him down and tell him how you feel."
"It's bigger then that."
"What do you mean?"
"My period's thirteen days late."
"Do you mean that you're pregnant?"
"I don't know."
"Have you taken a test?"
"No."
"You need to."
"I'm scared." "I can't have a baby." "Especially John's baby." "He's happy with Nikki and I don't want to ruin that for him." "I just…I want him to be happy and he won't be if I have his baby."
"You need to find out for sure." "After the show go to the drugstore." "Buy a pregnancy test then come to my room and take it."
"Thanks."
"No problem."
After the show AJ went to the drugstore. Then she went to Kaitlyn's room. She was waiting on the results of the test.
"Oh god this is so nerve-racking." AJ said.
"I know but no matter what it's gonna be ok."
"I don't see how." She looked at the clock. "It's time." AJ went into the bathroom. "No!" AJ shouted. "Oh my god, no!" "No!" She sat on the toilet put her head in her hands and sobbed. Kaitlyn came into the bathroom. She saw the positive pregnancy test sitting on the sink.
"AJ." "Come here." "It's ok." She could feel AJ shaking. "It's ok."
"What am I gonna say to John?" "He's gonna hate me." She said through her tears.
"No he won't."
"Yes he will he won't want the baby."
"Do you want the baby?"
"I don't know."
"You and John need to talk."
"I can't."
"AJ you have to."
"He already doesn't want to be with me." "Now he won't want me around at all." "I can't do this to him." "I just can't."
"What are you saying?"
"I don't know." "I just need some time alone to figure things out." She stood up and went into the living room.
"Ok well if you need to talk I'm here."
"Thanks."
Two days later AJ made an appointment with her doctor. She was waiting in an examination room. The doctor came in.
"Hello AJ." She said.
"Hi."
"You are pregnant."
"I thought so."
"Lay back and I'll determine how far along you are."
"Ok." AJ laid down. The doctor hooked her to the machine.
"I'd say your about five weeks pregnant." She unhooked the machine. AJ sat up.
"Doctor I can't have this baby." AJ said with tears in her eyes.
"Why?"
"It's complicated."
"Explain it to me."
"I care about the father way to much to do this to him." "I can't punish him for the rest of his life because we made a mistake." "The having sex part I mean." "I don't want the father to feel like he's tied down." "I want him to be happy." "It has to be this way." "There's no other choice." "No other option." "I want an abortion."
