The Best, Yet Worst Summer Ever, chapter 5
Dani and Jill walked out of the bathroom together. Jake stood up and walked by them and Dani turned around to stop him. "Hey... Can I talk to you in private?"
"Umm... sure, babe." They walked down the hall into Jill's kitchen where Jill and Sam were not able to hear their conversation.
"So... umm... we still don't know eachother very well... do we?" Dani said in a nervous voice.
Jake raised his hand and put it on her chin. "I think we know each other VERY well." Then he came and kissed her lips. Dani shivered a bit. He seemed to notice this. "What's wrong? Are you alright?"
Then, Dani's knees began to feel weak and before she knew it, she was falling. But, before she could hit the ground, Jake had caught her.
"Woah! You look ill... Do you need a ride home or something?" Jake said looking worried.
"Uhh... yeah... I guess. I am feeling pretty queasy..." Dani stood up.
"Well... okay... but TRY not to throw up in my car... please..." Jake grabbed her arm to help support her so that she wouldn't fall again and he escorted her to his black Mustang.
They began to drive off to Dani's house. "So... you said you needed to talk to me?" Jake said trying to break the silence.
"Yeah... umm... I was just wonderin'... do you want to go to a concert with me?" Dani replied.
"Depends on what band it is..." he said as he turned a corner.
"Green Day," Dani said while holding her lower abdomin.
"Green Day? Sure, I'll go! When?" Jake looked at her.
"A month from tomorrow."
"Hmm... really? Sure, I'll go."
He pulled into Dani's driveway and opened the door for her. "Do you think you'll be okay to walk yourself up to the door? I'm kinda in a rush." Jake said closing the door. "I have a gig in 15 minutes."
"Umm...yeah. I think I'll make it."
"Okay, then."
So Dani walked into the house as Jake drove off.
She went on her computer and typed in teen pregnancy. She visited a few sites about girls in the same position as her. She thought about her options. She could give birth to the baby and take care of it... or she could have the baby and give it up for adoption... or she could have an abortion and forget the whole thing ever happened. She thought for a moment.... How could she give up her child and kill an innocent life. But how can she be responsible for a baby and have all it's financial and social needs. She decided to wait until she told Jake about it first. Then they could make the decision together.
So she went to bed to rest. She had another dream of being in the hospital having her baby. Only this time, Jake was in it. He was holding the baby. "She's beautiful, isn't she?" he said. "What are you gonna name her?" Then all of a sudden, in a flash they were both gone. A nurse came in and said "The procedure is done. You are no longer pregnant."
Dani began to scream. "No! You can't take my baby! You can't!"
Then she woke up. She was sweating all over. She can't give up her child. That is no longer one of her options. She is gonna have this baby.
"Umm... sure, babe." They walked down the hall into Jill's kitchen where Jill and Sam were not able to hear their conversation.
"So... umm... we still don't know eachother very well... do we?" Dani said in a nervous voice.
