The Best, Yet Worst Summer Ever, chapter 2
The next day, Dani visited Jill and told her about the tickets. "I can't wait! This is gonna kick ass!" Jill said when Dani told her she could come too.
"I know! Maybe we'll meet Billie Joe, Mike or Tré!" Dani said as she went off into daydream land.
"I highly doubt that but... I guess it could happen." Jill said in a positive tone.
Then, Dani started to feel a like she was gonna puke. She stood up to head into the bathroom but fell to the ground...
"Dani? Are you alright? You look really sick." Jill was standing above her.
"What happened?" Dani said, feeling just like Jill had described her as.
"Well, you sort of passed out..." Jill explained, "How are you feeling now?"
"Better..." Dani told Jill everything that had happened when her parents were in Alabama including the party and sleeping with a random guy who she didn't even know.
"You don't think you could be... Pregnant... Do you?" Jill asked in a more quieter voice, hoping her parents wouldn't hear their conversation from downstairs.
"I don't know... But if I am, how will I tell my parents? How do I explain to them who the father is when all I know about him is his name is Jake? Why did I go to that party? I won't be allowed to go to the concert." Dani felt a tear roll down her cheek.
"Look, it will all be okay... Even if... You are pregnant." Jill tried to cheer her up but it didn't work very well.
A week later, Dani returned to Jill's house.
"Let's just go to your house and tell your parents now and get it over with, they won't be as harsh on you if I'm there." Jill finally said after a long conversation about the possible pregnancy.
So together, they walked to Dani's house but before they could enter, Dani stopped and said "I will go in first and tell them myself, then you can come in."
Jill nodded in agreement and stepped aside so that Dani would have a clear entrance. Dani stepped inside to find her parents standing by the living room. Her father had a angry expression on his face while her mother looked depressed. "Where have you been?" her father asked her.
"At Jill's" Dani wondering what was going on.
"Oh really? Are you sure you weren't walking the streets waiting to be picked up by men?!" Her father's voice raised his voice.
"What are you talking about? Of course not!" Dani said, starting to feel worried.
"Don't lie to me! Try and explain THIS!" He held up a condom wrapper. It was open so it must have been the one they used when they had sex.
"Listen, I just came here to explain that. Just let me talk. No interruptions." Dani didn't want her father to do something terrible so she kept the story simple,
"When you guys were gone to Alabama, I went to a few summer parties and at all of them, I got drunk but at the last one, I had sex with a guy but I didn't even remember doing it. I just woke up next to him."
"We specifically told you NO PARTIES before we left!" her father said with less of an angry expression.
"I know, but I didn't think you would ever find out... But you probably would've anyways... Because... I... I... I think I'm pregnant!" She said it and looked down, she didn't want to see his face now or her mother's.
At that moment, Jill walked inside and mouthed to Dani. "Did you tell them?"
Dani nodded and Jill got the message.
"So... You think you're pregnant?" it was her mother who spoke this time, "Why don't we find out for sure? I'll go to the store and get a pregnancy test." Then she walked out of the house and drove off.
"I'll stay. I wanna be here when you find out." Jill declared.
"So... Do you know ANYTHING about the father?... If you ARE pregnant, that is..." Her father asked in a more calm voice.
"All I know is his name is Jake, he's blonde and has green eyes. I'm guessing his age is between 17 and 20."
"Hang on, I think I know a Jake with blonde hair and green eyes. His last name is Richards. He's 19 and will be a sophomore in college this fall." Jill told them, "He isn't that bad looking, actually. He's my brother's friend."
"That helps a lot, Jill, thanks!" Dani's father said in relief.
About 15 minutes later, Dani's mother walked in through the front door with a box in her hand. "Well, let's get it over with." She handed the box to Dani who went into the upstairs bathroom and took the test.
After a little while, Dani returned upstairs to see the result of the test. She returned downstairs with it in her hand and the test said...
"I know! Maybe we'll meet Billie Joe, Mike or Tré!" Dani said as she went off into daydream land.
"I highly doubt that but... I guess it could happen." Jill said in a positive tone.
