Chapter 183 - "Lack of Protection and Complete Panic..."

Clara's PoV

'Sorry? You what? Could you get any more stupid?' Richard snapped.

'I tried to stop her, but it was just such a moment - I couldn't fight her off. We used protection... Will it even matter?'

'I'm not even going to even answer that question. The worst part about all of this is you were freakin sober when this happened. You are so on your own'

'Richard please I'm begging you. I looked to a friend from comfort and got that comfort. How was I to know she wasn't on the pill? How was I supposed to know that she could be riddled with any STD ever? How was --'

'I'm going to cut you off right there dude. You've been to enough health classes and sex talks to know that you don't just go around sticking yourself inside people without covering it up. Even if it is someone you know' he snapped.

John dropped his head. 'John the truth always comes out in the end. What if she is pregnant? Then what? How do you propose telling Clara that? What if she has an STD huh? How are you going to explain that you slept with one of her friends and that you could have passed on anything... Plus the fact your one night of sex could have gotten her pregnant?' Richard yelled.

John would have not flinched but he knows full well that Richard was completely right.

'What do I do? I've come to you for help Richard. I need your help' John begged.

'First of all. You get round to her house because they are friends now. Crystals her friend. And you know what girls are like. She could blab to anyone. Get round there and sort this mess out' Richard scolded.

'Please come with me. I don't know what to do' John begged.

'Please be in. Come on. Be in' John begged out loud and was completely shocked to find Adrien - of all people - answer the front door to Crystals house.

'Oh my god. Like you should be here?'

'I swear to you if you blab to Clara--'

'She's my best friend John. She's the first person that truly accepted me for who I am - because you know - she's nice like that and doesn't deserve any of your shit' Adrien snapped.

'Just let me in you idiot'

'I'd cut down on the name calling if I was you - because I could send Clara one text and she'd be round here to hear this whole conversation' Adrien threatened, as Richard and John stepped in around them.

'John please go away' Crystal begged.

'No. Not until we sort this out'

'There's nothing to sort out. Don't worry your secrets safe with me. She won't find out. I promised pixie dust I'd stop all this sleeping around - and I had until last week. And now look at me. I could have an STD and be pregnant'

'Don't you get it Crystal so could she' John snapped.

'Well it would have been common sense to cover it up to be fair' Richard said defending Crystal.

'And so could have she in the first place' John snapped.

'There's no point having this argument. You'll have to wait 4 weeks to see if she's pregnant. In the mean time you'll both have to go and be tested. I don't know what your going to tell Clara... But she needs to know' Richard said.

'No. I'll get tested then let her know. If it's all clear she never needs to know does she?'

'Dude it doesn't work like that' Richard pointed out.

'Well. It. Does now' John yelled making everyone in the room be silent.

'John if I am pregnant, you understand I won't be keeping it right?' Crystal sniffed in embarrassment from Adrien's hug.

'I would completely respect that decision. To be honest if you are I don't want to know' John said staring at the wall.

'Dude if she's pregnant then you help'  Richard scolded and they all came to the agreement that nobody finds out.

'Crystal. Oh my god. I didn't think we were meeting up until the New Year?'

'Were not. I just needed to talk to someone. And thought that Pixie dust is the perfect person to talk to about my shit' she said so I stepped aside and let her come in.

'Here, you look like you could use a cup of tea. How's uni? Did you need some more tutoring?' I smirked.

'No. Well maybe in the future but that's not why I'm here' she said.

'Your making me nervous now. What's up?'

'I had sex'

'Okay. Don't we all. Who is he? Have you finally found a guy?'

'No. It was a one night stand and I promised after high school that I would never do that again. I promised you after everything that happened, and I broke that promise' she cried.

'Woah. Your Crystals James... I didn't exactly expect you to keep that promise. Especially with going to uni and everything' I shrugged.

'The thing is. I could be diseased. I could be pregnant and the best part is he doesn't even care. Hasn't helped at all'

I gritted my teeth thinking that if it was John and me I would make him help. 'Give me his number and I'll talk some sense into him' her eyes went wide and she shock her head.

'He's probably on his way back to Italy. Look that's not the point. It's just I'm scared. And you've been here. You were pregnant before. And I know you lost it and I was so horrible to you about it. I don't even know why now. Loosing a baby would be horrible and I just don't think that if I was pregnant id be able to give it up' she cried.

'Oh come here' I said pulling her in for a tight hug. 'We'll work this out. I'll help you' I promised.

'Your too nice pixie dust. All the shit I've caused you and your still willing to help?'

'Of course I am. Now stay here. We're going to get you to a clinic for a test. That's the first thing. Now I'm going back to uni this afternoon but I'll come with you if you want?'

'No. I'm fine' she sniffed. 'I'm still here for another week and Adrien said he'd come with me' she said standing up as the doorbell rang. 'It's just John. You don't have to go' I said racing after her to the front door.

'Crystal?'

'I'm just leaving' she said awkwardly walking around him and down the path.

'I'll text you' I said and hugged John, pulling him inside.

'What-- what was all that about?' He said almost edgy.

'She's having a bad time of it. Some ass may have knocked her up and given her an Std. I swear if that was me I would be on his doorstep pounding down the door and embarrassing the jerk in front of everyone' I snapped annoyed for her.

He made a nervous laugh and just hugged me closer. 'Just be glad it's not you then hey'
