Mount Olympus

Jace

I don't hesitate, falling out of bed and rushing to dress. Once I'm covered, I lean against the bed and take my head in my hands. No, no, no. What did I just do?

Rayah

I dive under the covers and get dressed as well, standing when I am. "I-I'll be right back," I said, rushing to my moms room.

Jace

Rayah rushes out and I curse myself mentally. Dammit. What if she thinks that the only reason I said those things before was to get this? She...She won't think that, will she? She knows me better than that, right?

Rayah

I get one of my moms pregnancy thingies and test myself, feeling like I'm about to faint. In three minutes it clickes and I check the results. No,No,No,NO!

I drop to the ground, taking my head in my hands and call Jace in. "JACE!"

Spoiler

...It takes more than two hours for that to come in positive. Lol. But okay. We'll go with it.

Jace

Rayah yells for me and I bolt towards the sound of her voice, finding her in a bathroom.

"No," I shake my head, "No, this isn't happening. I didn't..."

I swear half a million times and take my head in my hands again, sliding down to the floor. No! This isn't our future! Ray was supposed to go to college and get everything she wanted out of life! We weren't supposed to...Ugh!

Spoiler

I know. *Facepalms*

Rayah

I keep crying and pull on my hair, bringing my knees to my face. What about college? What the HELL am I going to do? My dad is going to kill me...

Jace

Rayah starts crying and I go to her, wrapping my arms around her.

"I'm so sorry, Ray," I whisper, wanting to comfort her, "I-I didn't want this to happen. I mean, I did just not for another...seven years or something."

Oh, God...stop talking, Jace!

Rayah

I glance up at him and shake my head. "I-I just wan't to be alone."

Jace

"Oh, god, Ray, I'm not leaving you," I kiss her forehead, "I'm not leaving you unless you want me to. You're not alone in this. I promise, you'll never be alone in this."

Rayah

I cross my rms over my stomach and continue crying as Jesse walks in. "Whoa...What happened?"

Jace

I swallow and glance up at Jesse and then back down at Rayah, not sure how to word things without screwing up. I leave it for Rayah to answer, letting her tell her.

Rayah

"I-I'm..." I hold my stomach again. Jesse watches. "Sick?"

I shake my head, "I-I'm pregnant."

Her eyes widen and she takes a step back. "Oh my god..."

Jace

I swallow and bury my face in Rayah's hair, holding her close. I feel like wanting to cry, scream, and run all at the same time.

Rayah

Jesse runs out of the room and I look up, shaking my head. "This can't be happening."

Jace

I hold her closer, hating myself for this, "I'm so sorry, Ray."
