Chapter 25
Madison Kurt
I have to see Tom in a hour. ONE HOUR. and I'm the biggest mess right now. There's mascara going down my cheeks, stains on my sweater shirt, and I desperately need a shower but right now the only thing I'm focused on is the pregnancy test sitting on my bathroom counter.
"Ok. Are you ready to look because it's been 20 minutes and we were supposed to look at the test already." Aaliyah says. I sniff. "I'm ready." I say and stand up.
"Wait you look first!" I say to Aaliyah. "Ok." She says and walks over to the counter. She grabs the test and looks at it. I watch as her jaw drops to the floor.
"What does it say?" I ask and rush over to her. I look down at the test my jaw now on the floor with Aaliyah's.
I grab the test out of her hands. "No. No, no, no! This cannot be right! I mean I'm so young and I have a whole life ahead of me." I say and start to cry.
I look back at the two red lines on the test. I'm fucking pregnant.
"You have to tell Tom!" She pauses. "Wait do you know who the dad is?" She asks. I look up at her. "Of course I know who the fucking dad is. I've only slept with one guy this year!" I yell.
I'm really fucking stressed right now. I mean how am I going to tell Tom? How am I going to tell my mom! And there's so much I have to do before the stupid fucking child comes out of me.
"I need to tell Carter." I say and start to walk out of the bathroom. "Wait you have to tell Tom first!" Aaliyah yells at me.
"I'll tell him in a few years." I say. "What! You can't just leave him he's gonna be a father!" She says.
I stop on the staircase. "Shit. I'm gonna be a mom." I say. "I'm gonna be a old ugly mom." I say and turn towards Aaliyah. "No you'll be a hot mom!" She says.
We walk downstairs and I look for Carter. "Carter!" I yell. "What?" My brother walks into the living room. "I have to tell you something." I pause. "You might wanna sit down first though." I say and I sit on the couch. Carter does the same.
"What the hell is going on? Your acting weird." He says. "Umm." I say.
I hand Carter the test. Once he looks at it his face lights up with happiness. "Holy shit! Is this yours?" He asks me.
"Yeah." I say. "I'm gonna be a uncle!" He yells and pulls me into a hug. He then pulls back with a disgusted look. "Did you pee on this?" He asks.
"Yes?" I say. He then throws the test. "I didn't pee on the that party dummy!" I say.
He laughs and pulls me back into a hug.

I completely forgot I had a date with Tom because of the whole thing that happened earlier. I open the front door because I heard a knock. Once I open it I see Tom holding some flowers and he's dressed up in a suit.
"Mads. You aren't dressed up." He says as he looks at my oversized sweater and sweatpants. "Oh sorry something came up." I say and let him into the house.
"What happened?" He asks. "I need to talk to you about something really important." I say. "Ok." He says concerned.
We walk up to my room and I'm sitting on my bed my head resting on the headboard and Tom sitting next to me.
"What I'm about to tell you might change what we have and I don't want it to change in a bad way. I want us to stay together after I tell you this." I say.
"Mads your scaring me." Tom looks at me. "Tom just promise me that you won't leave me. Ok?" I say.
"I promise." He says not knowing what I'm about to tell him.
"I.. I'm" I say but pause not being able to form the words. "Angel." He whispers. "I'm pregnant." I say fast.
He looks at shocked. He doesn't say anything he just looks at me with his mouth open like he's trying to say something.
"Tom please say something." I say tears forming in my eyes. But he doesn't say anything.
"Please." I whisper. Tears starting to roll down my cheeks.
He gets up off the bed. "Tom." I say and get up also. I try to walk up to him but he stops me.
"I need time. Ok?" Is all he says. "Ok." I repeat his word. He then leaves me alone in my room.
I sit back on my bed and hear the front door slams shut.
the rest of the night I cry. All I can do is cry. I think about Tom and how he reacted to me telling him the life changing news.
I wonder if he's gonna walk through my bedroom door and say he's ready. But he doesn't. He doesn't text or call me.
I hear my door open and I hope it's Tom. I look over and it's Aaliyah.
"How did he take it?" She asks and sits down by my feet on the bed. "He didn't say anything." I say and start to cry again.
"Come here." She says and holds out her arms for me. I immediately hug her and cry into her shirt while she rubs my back.
"It's been a long day you should get some sleep." She says. I nod. I lay down and Aaliyah lays next to me.
"Thank you for being here for me." I say. "Of course." She says and then we both fall asleep.
