It's been about a month since my mom hit me and told me she wished I would leave, Have I though?
No.
No I have not.
Rome hasn't talked to me at all, which is kind of a relief but it's sad.
Dev and me haven't gone to a party this entire month because of my mother.
She has me on a very tight leash at the moment.
Speaking of partying, I haven't had a drop of alcohol since the party last month.
When did I become so lame?
Sighing, I turn my alarm off and get up.
That was a bad idea because I suddenly feel very nauseous and dizzy.
I grab hold of my bed frame to stabilize myself.
It doesn't help at all.
I run to the bathroom and throw up my guts.
Once I'm done, I get dressed.
The outfit:
I go downstairs and take a tums.
My mom is nowhere to be found so I guess it's okay.
I grab a bottle of ginger ale and walk out of the house.
I get into my car and go to Dev's moms house.
She runs out and gets into the car.
"Are you still feeling bad?" She asks me as she gets in.
I nod and she groans.
She hates it when I don't feel for some reason.
She rubs my back and I zoom off to school.
We get there and I'm so car sick.
I run into the school and head straight for the bathroom to throw up.
God, this stomach bug sucks!
I wash my face and take out the tiny mouth wash I brought with me.
I redo my mascara and walk out.
Dev is on her phone outside.
"Hey babes" she says.
"Hey love" I reply and she snickers.
People walk around us in fear.
We just laugh at late.
We go to the roof to wait for Toni and Jake.
They come but so does Rome.
"We finally have a new friend!" Toni squeaks.
We all laugh at him.
Dev shakes his hand and welcomes him into the group.
We all hang out and I offer Rome a cigarette.
He gladly takes it.
We talk and get to know Rome better before the bell rings.
We rush downstairs and go to class.
~Time skip~
My leg vibrates and I take out my phone to see Dev had texted me.
Dev🌹: U have a tampon?
Me: No sorry babes, I haven't started yet
Dev🌹: Weren't we on the same cycle last month?
Me: I don't know, I'll check
I quickly change apps and go to my period tracker.
14 days late
I recheck the app thinking it made a mistake but when I refreshed it, it said the same thing.
Me: I'm 2 weeks late
Dev🌹: Last time you were late, You were like 13
Me: I know! Wanna get a pregnancy test with me after school?
Dev🌹: Anything for you babes :)
I smile and put my phone in my pocket again.
I finish up all of school and walk out waiting for Dev.
Toni and Jake come out with Rome.
"We're going to ride with Rome today" they tell me.
"Ok" I reply.
It's actually easier that way do me and Dev can just go to the pharmacy.
Dev comes out and gets into my car.
We zoom to the pharmacy and get out.
I look up the most reliable pregnancy test to buy and get three of the tests.
I pay for them and Dev gets a Red Bull.
Ignoring the cashiers judgy glares, We walk out.
When I get into the car and drive I feel very carsick.
Without any explanation to Dev I pull over on the side of the road and throw up.
"Sky! Are you ok?" She asks rubbing my back.
I say mmhmm after a second and get back in.
"I'm hungry now" I tell her.
She starts laughing.
"Babes, You just threw up!" She tells me.
I chuckle before driving to the nearest fast food place for a hamburger.
Once we get food, We go to my house.
My mom is gone like she always is now a-days.
I go to the upstairs bathroom and Dev follows.
She opens one of the tests and reads the directions while I pee on it.
When I'm done, I pull my pants up, and put the test down on the counter.
"We have to wait 5 minutes" she tells me.
"Ok" I say.
We watch TikTok's for 10ish minutes and then I look at the test.
It reads:
Pregnant
I show Dev the test and once she sees it she wraps me into her arms.
"It's- I- It's wrong!" I shout and grab the other 2.
We do the same with them and once it's been more than 5 minutes, I have Dev look at them.
She looks at me with sympathy.
I grabbed the tests and saw the exact same result.
Tears go down my cheeks.
"Who's the dad babes?" She asks.
I think about it.
Before Toni's party, I haven't been with anyone for a couple of months.
The only person who can be the father is Rome.
"Rome" I say quietly.
Her eyes widen.
I chuckle at her.
She pulls me into a hug and kisses my forehead.
"What are you going to do?" She asks.
"I- I- I don't- don't know" I say stuttering.
She holds me as more tears fall out of me.
"You need to tell Rome" she says to me.
"I know, just in a couple weeks, Ok?" I ask.
"Alright babes" she says.
She holds me in her arms and helps me to the bed.
She puts the blankets over me and kisses my forehead.
She hands me the remote to my TV.
"Are you hungry babes?" She asks me.
"A little" I reply.
She nods and leaves the room.
After about 20 minutes she comes back with soup and garlic bread.
I put on some random reality tv show.
I stopped when I realized it was a teen pregnancy show.
When Dev noticed she laughed so hard.
I send her a playful glare and she laughs harder.
I change the channel and just put on some Vampire Diaries.
She lays down with me and steals a little of the soup.
I feel very tired all of a sudden, so I put the soup on my nightstand and lay all the way down.
Dev wraps her arms around me to comfort me.
She really is my best friend.
My soulmate.
