Chapter 5 I'm what?
"Bonnie are you alright?" Caroline asks from the other side of the bathroom. "No Caroline, I'm not." Bonnie says as she flushes the toilet. Caroline comes in. "Do you want me to tell you professors and Enzo that you're not feeling well?" Bonnie nods her head. "I'll tell Enzo myself." Caroline nods. "You just focus on getting better, I'll pick up some ginger ale on the way back." Bonnie nods as she goes to lie down on her bed. She moans. This cannot be happening. She turns on her side and goes to sleep.
Ring! Her phone goes off several hours later.
Bonnie. Enzo.
Hey.
Hi, where are you?
I'm not feeling well so I'm at home.
I'm sorry to hear that, love.
I wish I could be their today I would have liked to see you.
As would I, love I will see you when you get better.
Bye, Enzo.
Bye, love hope you feel better.
Bonnie signs and places her phone on her nightstand. When she wakes later and rushes to the bathroom. Caroline comes home and see her in the bathroom. "Still not feeling well Bon?" Bonnie shakes her head and she get up. Bonnie plops on her bed and looks at Caroline. "What?" Caroline says nothing as she leaves and comes back with a giant brown teddy bear. "Enzo got this for you he wanted to make you feel better." Caroline says as she hands Bonnie the bear. She smiles.
"I'm going to make you some of my famous 'get well soup' until its done drink this." Caroline hands her a can of ginger ale before leaving. Bonnie shakes her head and 45 minutes later Caroline comes in with a bowl of soup. "Thanks, Care." She hugs her best friend. "So what did I miss?" Bonnie asks as she sips some soup. Caroline shrugs, "Not much other than Enzo wanting to come over and Tyler telling him that he could get sick too." Bonnie looks blankly at her a small smile forms. "He did? Well I wouldn't want him to get sick either." Caroline nods and stands up after Bonnie finishes her soup. "You're taking the rest of this week off, if you're not better by Friday I'm taking you to the doctor."
Bonnie nods before getting under the covers and goes to sleep.
When she wakes the next morning she's off rushing to the bathroom. Ugh why me? She gets up and brushes her teeth then takes a shower. She put on some more night clothes and heads downstairs. She see a note on the counter.
Dear Bonnie,
I'm on my way to class, I'm picking up some more ginger ale for you. Enzo said he was going to stop by after he gets out of class today. If your still feeling sick when I get home were going to get you checked out. Please just take it easy, I'll be back soon.
Love you, Caroline.
Bonnie smiles and goes downstairs to get a ginger ale. She studies some more for her history test, then watches some TV. Her phone goes off.
Hey Enzo.
Hello, love are you feeling better?
No not really, in fact I think I'm getting worse are you sure you still want to come over?
Of course I do, why would I not?
Well, because I don't want to get you sick and I know you have a game tomorrow...
Regardless, love I'm coming over. I'll see you in 20 minutes. He hangs up.
Bonnie signs and grabs a book from the shelf to read. After about 15 minutes she goes to the kitchen and makes gets some soup and puts it into the microwave. The doorbell rings not five minutes later. Bonnie goes to open the door. "Hi, Enzo." He smiles and hands her a small vase filled with yellow carnations. "Thank you." Bonnie says as he comes inside and closes the door. "Your welcome, love." He walks behind her and hugs her. They stay like that for awhile and then. Ding!
Bonnie releases him and gets her soup out of the microwave. "I'm sorry do you want anything?" She asks. Enzo shakes his head. "No, thank you, love I ate before I got here. So what have you been doing all day?" "Well, I slept most of the day, studied for my history test then just watched some TV. What have you been doing all day?" She asks while she eats her soup. "Well I had just had my Advanced Calculus today what a bore that was." Bonnie giggles. "What?" He asks. She shakes her head and finishes her soup. "What?" He asks again. "Nothing, I just thought it was funny that you don't enjoy Calculus."
She grabs another ginger ale and heads upstairs Enzo follows. "Oh, and thanks for the teddy bear." He sits on the foot of her bed. He smiles, "My pleasure. So do you think you'll be well enough to come and cheer me on tomorrow?" Bonnie shrugs. "I want to be there I'm just not sure." He nods. Oh, no here it comes again. She runs to the bathroom barely making it in time. "Bonnie." Enzo walks in and holds her hair back. When she finishes she brushes her teeth. Bonnie smiles at Enzo. "Thank you." He smiles.
Bonnie lies on her bed, Enzo pulls the covers over her and is about to leave. Bonnie grabs his hand. "Stay, at least until Caroline comes back." He smiles adoringly at her then gets up on her bed and pulls her to him. Bonnie wakes up a few hours later and sees that Enzo is gone but Caroline is there. "Hey Bon, Enzo told me what happened earlier." Bonnie nods and gets out of bed. "Bonnie I need you to take this." She pulls a pregnancy test out from behind her. "Caroline I'm not pregnant." Caroline says nothing but hands her the test and walks out of the room.
Bonnie shakes her head. I'm not I can't be I'm on birth control. It doesn't make sense.
Bonnie stops her inner struggle and heads into the bathroom to take the test. Four minutes later she looks at it and it says. "Caroline I'm not pregnant!" Bonnie says as she races out of her bathroom and into Caroline's room. But she's not in there. Bonnie heads downstairs. "I still think we should go to the doctors just to be sure." Bonnie shakes her head again. Cautious Caroline. "Fine let me change." When Bonnie comes back down five minutes later they take her car and head to the hospital.
"Bonnie Bennett." The nurse says. Bonnie and Caroline stand. "Right this way." She leads them to another room. "The doctor will be in shortly." Then she leaves. They sit in silence. The door opens not long after "Hi I'm Dr. Jo Saltzman." Bonnie stands. "Bonnie Bennett. This is my best friend Caroline Forbes." "So what can I do for you today?" "My friend took a pregnancy test earlier and we just want to know if she is or not." Caroline rushes out. Dr. Saltzman nods. "I see so have you been sexually active in the past few days?" Bonnie nods. "Do you have multiple partners or just one?" "Just one." Dr. Saltzman nods again. "When was your last menstrual cycle?" "Four months ago." Bonnie says. "Are you on birth control?" Bonnie nods. "Alright so were going to need a sample of your blood and for you to pee in this cup." Bonnie does as the doctor tells her.
"How long before she knows?" Caroline asks. Dr. Saltzman smiles. "Just a few minutes. I'll be right back." She leaves. Caroline starts pacing. "Care please stop your giving me a headache." She does and sits back down. The doctor comes in with the results. "Congratulations your pregnant!" The doctor says. Bonnie blinks and everything thing goes dark.
