The little pink plus sign.

Who knew such a innocent sign could ruin someones life? Maybe that 's why i always hated the color pink. I knew how much pain and misery it could cause. I couldnt tell Beck. After that horrid valentines day, I never wanted to see Beck again, Let alone have his child. I threw the test to the ground, where it landed with a clatter.

This was all Beck's fault. HE forgot the stupid condom. It was HIS sperm. I let out scream and threw myself on my bed. My parents would be home soon, and they could NOT find out about father would demaind it to be killed. I thought about it for a moment, Did i want to kill it? It certainly was an idea. I normally hate childern, with their runny noses, and disgusting fingers... But this was my child. My blood, could i really kill it in cold blood. The dark side of my mind instantly shouted back , YES! But then the softer side of me, shouted back, though not quite as loud, a simple no. This baby might very well be my last link to Beck.

Beck, The man i loved. Still love...Will always love. Gone, He wouldnt want me back, Why would he? I was vile and nasty. I knew I needed to tell someone. But who? I didnt really have friends. Just people who put up with me for Beck's sake. But now that Beck was gone... I shook that thought from my head. No, I had one person, She was my friend before Beck. I could count on her now.


I knocked on the door to her house, praying she was home. The door opened instantly revealing a short fiery redhead.

"Jade?" Cat asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I need to talk to you." I brushed past her inside her house.

"Okay...We can go upstairs." Cat seemed confused, but then again what else was new? We walked upstairs in silence. I could hear a commotion coming from the kitchen, but i figured that was just Cat's crazy brother. We entered her room and i shuttered at the vast amounts of pink. It just reminded me of that horrid little plus sign. Cat flopped down on her bed, clasping a stuffed owl.

"What going on Jade?" Her voice lacked the usual tone of airyness.

"Cat...I'm pregnat." I sighed, and sat in the chair across from the bed.

Cat's mouth dropped open, "Your what? Is it...Beck's?" I nodded, and Cat's mouth dropped so low that touched her bed. "So you and Beck called a stork to bring you a baby? Why would you do that?"

Jade raised an eyebrow. "Cat...Babies dont come from storks." I hoped that the ditzy red head was just kidding because I honestly did not want to explain this to her.

"Yes they do." Cat responded, clutching her stuffed owl closer to her chest.

"No! Cat, When a boy and girl love each other...they have a special hug...Just ugh, look it up!" I cried, jumping up.

"My mom has parental block on my computer."

"I'm leaving." I ran out of her bedroom and outside where i finally just broke down and cried.
