I Woke up with a weird feeling in my stomach and next thing you know I was running to the bathroom. I shut the door because Nick didn't have to see this. I felt so sick. I lay my head on the bathroom tile, letting it cool my hot skin. When I decided that I wasn't going to throw up again, I got up and brushed my teeth really good. I didn't want to have my mouth smelling like throw up all day, and worse Nick having to taste it when we kiss. I went back into Nick's room and saw him laying on his back wide awake, staring at the ceiling.
"I think we should tell our parents today." He said.
"I'm not ready yet." I replied.
"Well, we have to tell them soon before they find out on their own."
"I know."
We sat in awkward silence for a while until Nick decided to get up and get breakfast. He came back with 4 pieces of toast on one of the 2 plates and only 1 piece on the other and of course he handed me the plate with 4 pieces of toast.
"You know, I don't eat this much...yet." I told him.
"But you're eating for two now so eat up." He said. He has a point, and chubby babies are cute. I smiled. What if we had a chubby baby? That would be so cool. I ate the first 2 pieces of toast and started to feel a little sick and of course I was back in the bathroom for a round two of throwing up. This time Nick came in and held my hair back. I was still throwing up when I heard someone come upstairs.
"What's wrong with Annie?" I instantly knew it was Mom.
"She just ate to much for breakfast." He lied, to save me and our secret.
"Oh, we'll hope she feels better." She said as she walked away. I got up from throwing up and brushed my teeth again.
"I think I'm just going to lay down all day." I told Nick.
"Ok sweetheart." He said.
I walked down the stairs and decided to lay down on the couch. I picked up the remote and browsed through the channels until I found one that was particularly interesting to me.
"Honey, are you alright?" Mom asked me after noticing I have been laying down all day.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"Positive."
"Maybe we should get you into the doctor."
"NO!" I said a little to loudly.
"Why?"
"I'm fine. I feel fine. I'm just lazy today."
"I don't believe you." She said and came over to check if I had a temperature.
"No Mom, Annie is fine. She doesn't need to go to the hospital." Nick came into the room and saved my life.
"Yeah, he's right." I said, trying to make her believe us.
"Ok, fine but I'm still going to be checking up on you."
"Phew." I said after she exited the room.
"She was on to us." Nick said.
"Yeah, we half to tell her soon." I said.
"Tell me what soon?" Mom suddenly came in to the room. She was listening to our whole conversation.
"Oh no." I whispered. I saw Nick's knees shake.
"Um, nothing." Nick said.
"Liar!" She yelled.
