Chapter 5

"Did you do it yet?" Evie asked through the bathroom door.


Right now, Mal was in their dorm bathroom. Evie was making her take a pregnancy test, just to be safe.


"Do you want me to tell you the exact moment I empty my bladder?" Mal snapped as she read the instructions on the test once again.


"I just want to make sure you're actually doing it," Evie said.


"What else would I do? Run it under the sink water?" Mal asked. "Now that I think about it..." she started mumbling.


"I can hear you! Just hurry up!" Evie groaned and sat on her bed. The wait was killing her. Partly because she knew her friend wasn't in a rush to take the test, but also because SHE MIGHT BE AN AUNT!


And she was super excited. To be able to make dresses, bows, and, of course, cute little suits if it's a boy, made her very happy.


"Evie!" Mal's voice brought the blue haired girl back to the present.


"What?" she asked


"I did it," Mal said and opened the bathroom door.


"What does it say?" Evie asked walking over to the bathroom.


"I think we have to wait."


"For how long?"


"Three minutes...."


Three minutes later....


"I don't see anything," The girls crowded around the test that was sitting on the bathroom counter.


"Are you sure you did it right?" Evie asked peering at the test.


"Yes! I peed on the tip. It's pretty full proof," Mal said.


"Well, maybe there's a way you can pee on it wrong," Evie said.


"Evie! I didn't pee on it wrong! It said pee on it and I did!"


"Okay, sorry...."


Mal sighed. "No, I'm sorry. I'm just a little stressed."


"Well, I can see that," Evie said and looked at the test again. "Wait, I think I see something!"


"Really?! What does it say?" Mal asked. "No, don't tell me. I want to see for myself," She grabbed the test out of Evie's fingers.


"What does two lines mean?" Evie asked looking at the instructions.


"It means positive," Mal said.


"Positive? Positive as in what?"


"Positive as in I'm pregnant...."


"Wow...."


"Well, maybe it's a false positive! Those things happen sometimes! We need to get more tests!"


"But what if Ben sees you?"


"You're right, that could prove disastrous......"


"I mean, unless you knew someone who would do anything for you, including running to the store to get pregnancy tests even if it means people thinking that their pregnant. Too bad you don't know someone like that right?" Evie chuckled and Mal looked at her with a smile.


"What? What are you thinking?" Evie asked.


At the store...


"They all look the same.... Which one's the best? Oh, nevermind, I'll get them all," Evie shrugged and put a bunch of pregnancy tests in the basket. She ignored the judgemental states of others and quickly paid for the tests before making her way back to the dorm room.


She had almost made it when-


"Evie?" Evie winced as she heard her name being called. She turned to see her boyfriend, Doug, walking towards her.


"H-Hey Doug.... I was just on my way back to my dorm.... Fashion stuff," Evie said nervously.


"Well, I'm sorry I couldn't make the study date. My mom was sick."


"That's okay. I managed on my own," Evie smiled as she tried her best to hide the bag of pregnancy tests.


"Hey, what's in the bag?" Doug asked looking at the white plastic hanging from Evie's hand.


"This? Oh nothing. Just some.... Thread!"


"Are you sure? They look a lot like pregnancy te-"


"Well, I've got to go! Bye Doug!" Evie ran down the hall leaving a very shocked Doug.


"Evie's pregnant," He breathed. How did this happen???
