A Series Of Truely Unfortunate Events, chapter 5
We were on our way home when Allie stopped at the drug store and I wondered why but then I remembered our little conversation in the bathroom. She came back in like five minutes with a brown paper bag and she got back in the driver seat and we went home.
When we got home Mary stayed in the garage with Mike, Allie and me were a little bit relieved because Mary didn't know about the whole me being pregnant thing yet. We got into the bathroom and followed the instructions that were on the box and waited anxiously for the answer. After 20minuits of waiting I walked over to the sink and looked at the test, and it was positive. I started crying and Allie came over to me and started rubbing my back. I walked out of the bathroom to find Mike and Mary now sitting on the couch in the living room.
"What's wrong, Katie" asked Mike.
"Nothing" I answered, he knew I was lying and so he asked Allie
"She's pregnant," she answered still rubbing my back to make me feel better.
"So... when are you going to tell Billie Joe?" I knew I would have to tell Billie some time I just didn't know how or when.
"Please don't tell him, I have to tell him when I'm ready... promise me none of you will tell him" I was serious I didn't want Billie to fin out from one of his friends, I was going to tell him I just need some time. After a lot of careful thinking I decided I would tell Billie Joe tomorrow, it was his birthday and we were going to throw him a party.
***At the party***
It was already Saturday, Billie Joe's birthday and the day I knew I had to tell him that I was pregnant. I decided to wear the black dress I bought at the mall with the girls. Who knows how long it'll be before I wouldn't fit into it anymore. I went into the bathroom to put on some eyeliner, after that I headed downstairs for the party.
"Hey... wow you look hot" said Billie starting to stare at me. I blushed and replied
"Yeah you washed up pretty good too" he smiled running his fingers through his hair. With that we headed over downstairs for the party. The party was a lot of fun, we were all having a really good time. I soon realized that Billie Joe wasn't around. I looked around to see if he went to talk to anyone but I couldn't see him. It looked like mike also noticed that he wasn't around because he got up and went to look for him. I wanted to help so I got up and followed him. I don't think he noticed me following him because he was going kind of fast and I couldn't exactly keep up, he was always too fast for me to follow. I tried my best to follow him anyways.
Mike POV***
"I noticed Billie Joe wasn't anywhere around where we were so I decided to go find him, I hope he wasn't upset or anything" I thought to my self while looking for him anywhere. "He isn't anywhere, I wonder where he could be" was all that was running through my mind right now. "I know he might be up in his room, he always goes there when his is upset" I thought and I rushed up to his room, but before I reached his room I saw something I definitely didn't expect. I saw Jessica, Billie Joe's old girlfriend completely throwing herself at him. She was kissing him and I could feel the rage running through my body, Katie was all of our best friend, how could he do this to her. But I felt it drain out when I saw him pushing her away. He hadn't seen me yet. I could see her push herself onto him again and then I noticed something. Katie was behind me. She ran up to Billie Joe and slapped him across the face; I guess she hadn't seen the whole thing.
Katie's POV***
I was trying to follow Mike when I noticed he was going up to Billie's bedroom. I followed but saw that he stopped. I wondered why but then I saw Billie Joe kissing his so I thought "EX" girlfriend, I guess not. I could feel the tears running down my cheek and before I knew it I had ran up to him and slapped him across the face. I couldn't take it I had to go somewhere that wasn't here. I ran away from where we were and over to Allie, and grabbed her arm.
"Allie, please I need you, come on" I said yanking her arm, pulling her toward the door.
"Why? And, Why are you crying Katie?" she said stopping to observe me.
"I'll explain in the car, just please come on" I said desperately.
"Ok, ok" she said we got out of the house and into the car. She asked me where I wanted to go and I told her the airport. She seemed surprised and tried to tell me that I was making a mistake but I didn't care. As we pulled up by the airport she looked at me and said
"Katie, I understand you are hurt, what he did wasn't right but maybe you need to think before you just leave for... where ever it is that you are going"
"No I can't, I need to do this. I promise I will call you every now and then and you can call me but I really have to do this" I hugged Allie and walked towards the airport. When I got in I decided to call Chris and Sara and tell them that I was coming. I called Chris and told him first he told me he would pick me up from the airport when I got there and I agreed. I will call Sara later, when I get into New York City I guess, I thought to my self. I got onto a plain and sat in my seat. The whole thing cam flooding back to me and I couldn't help but cry. I closed m y eyes, starting to fall asleep telling myself that in a little while I would be in New York and that everything would be ok. I couldn't fool myself, I was pregnant with his child and everything couldn't ever be ok.
When we got home Mary stayed in the garage with Mike, Allie and me were a little bit relieved because Mary didn't know about the whole me being pregnant thing yet.
