It Could Happen To Me. . . .

One Twist After Another

Rachel P.O.V:

 

It almost seemed impossilbe, but at the same time, I could see it happening. I already knew the father.  . . I just knew. When I told them, I immediately started to feel my cheeks burn with anger. I stared at him with a "Yeah, I know it's you" look. But as soon as I did, I started for a door. Ready to explode

 

"Where do YOU think you're going??!?!?!" I heard Minho scream at me. "HOME!!!" I reply loudly, barely looking back. I was driving home when I thought. . .

"It could happen to me. . "

I call Onew. . . "Hello?" I hear Onew's sweet voice say through the phone. "Yah, go home, babe. I'll be back at the hospital to pick up Amber later" I said, hoping I didn't get stopped by a cop for talking on the phone while driving, but it was urgent. "Okay, love you" he cooed before hanging up

 

>>At the drug store. Rachel P.O.V:

 

"Hey, Rachel!" Vicky greeted me happily. Vicky is the only American I know in Seoul other than me. So it's fun to chat with her. "I need you to ring this up for me" I said with a faint smile. She held up the first and only thing I was buying with a confused look on her face. "A pregnancy test?" she asked. I only shrugged. Man was this embarrassing. "Did Onew finally get you prego?" she laughed. "No, AMBER'S pregnant" I yelled back. But she knew it was a yell of anger towards Amber. "Oh dang!" she exclaimed. "Yeah, so I wanna be sure I'm safe" I sighed. I thought of him, and how much I wanted to hurt him for bearing such a burden on Amber. "Of course" Vicky said concerned. Vicky worked at the market we shopped at. All of us; Me, Amber, Onew, and the rest of SHINee, so she gave us discounts often since we would always visit her. She's actually given Minho and Jonghyun a few English lessons, which made me rather jealous, since that was MY job. Yes, I give Jjong English lessons often. Mostly when I go to the SHINee dorm. Vicky is from Seattle just like me, only she's been here longer than me. I was caught up in my thoughts, I suddenly blurt, when I told myself I wouldn't "Key's the father"

 

She looked up slowly, her eyes wider than I've seen. "H-how do you know??" she asked stuttering. "I just know" I said quietly, staring at my shoes. I wanted to kick Kibum's so bad! But I know it wouldn't solve anything. "They tell us they're not dating, but I guess they can't hide much now. I'm more mad than ever!" I explain. I felt like I couldn't shut up."Yeah, I don't blame you" she stops my rant. "Sorry, I just need someone to talk to" I sighed. I could feel a tear ready to drop from my eye. I think it was the fact that I was worried for Amber that I started to cry. "What do you think'll happen to Lyrix & Noize?" Vicky asked me. Our duo's music project name is Lyrix & Noize. "Use your imagination" My voice broke with a straight face to mask my worries as I walk out the door. "Best of luck" Vicky said to my back while I walked out. "Thank you" I whispered. That's when I realized I should go back to the hospital to get Amber. But on my way. . One thing kept repeating in my head

 

I could be pregnant, too. . .

 

+Flashback+ 3rd person P.O.V. 3 weeks ago

Rachel and Amber had just come back from a party with Jonghyun, Onew, and Key

 

"How crazy was that party? You really can dance" Rachel laughed to Amber as they walked through the doorway of their dorm. ". . . Yeah, pretty crazy" Amber says in a bit of disgust. "Did you try jerking like I tried teaching you?" Rachel asked happily. "No. . ." Amber said again quietly. "Okay, what's up with you? You were quiet the whole way home, you're acting like something happened that shocked you. What's going on?" Rachel asked. "Rachel, something happened between me and Kibum. And it's kinda bothering me" Amber said while they stood in the middle of the living room. "What happened?" Rachel said sternly. "I. . . I.. . It's just.. . " Amber tried to explain. "Whatever it is, I can help with it and if it really is that hard to say-" "I lost my ity to Key tonight, Rachel!" Amber blurted, cutting Rachel off. Rachel turned around to face Amber so slowly. "...... You what?" Rachel whispered. Amber fidgeted violently. "How could let him take that away from you?" Rachel asked in a loud tone. "I'm sorry! It just happened! I had to tell someone!" Amber yelled, ready to cry. "I understand. When I lost my ity, I was pretty shocked too" Rachel said reassuringly. Amber sighed in relief. "Who'd you lose it too?" Amber asked curious. "Nobody you know. I met him in California. I was only 17. I regret it, but happens, and I won't let it run my life" Rachel explained. "Thank you for understanding, unni" Amber said clamly while she hugged Rachel. "No problem, baby doll" Rachel said. "Let's just pray it won't bite you in the later" she laughed. Amber gulped.

 

>>At the hospital. Amber P.O.V.:

 

I walked through the hospital door. I was hoping Key was waiting for me. But the only person I could identify was Rachel. Sitting in the waiting room all alone. The guys left leaving her to wait? Rude! I still miss Key though. Her head was down, her arms and legs crossed. Her bangs covering her eyes. She almost seemed like she'd fallen asleep, until I got closer. Then I heard "Baby Don't Cry" by U-Kiss faintly coming out of her headphones that were plugged into her head. No one could fall asleep to how loud that music was. I knew she was peeved. I don't blame her, but happens, and she should understand that. I walked up to her motionless body. "Rachel?" I said tapping her leg. She looked up slowly. I only smiled. With a listless face "Let's go home" she sighed while she walked out of the hospital door. I could only follow her, like a duckling followed her mother. She was my unni. I relied on her for anything, and she's a role model to me. The ride home was dead silent, I was expecting that. When we got home, I was sitting on the couch, watching T.V., When Rachel came in the room. She turned off the T.V. "When did you find out?" She asked me. "This morning. . . Before you woke up" I said quietly. she seemed to be more worried about it than me. I know she tried to keep her anger inside, but she was failing miserably when her face starting turning red. I was really in for it. But then again, I deserved it. "Amber, you're 19, you're famous, you have so many fans that look up to you, and you're pregnant. Do you have ANY idea how serious this is?" she asked, more concerned than angry. "You're putting your's, mine, and SHINee's careers in danger. People are gunna find out. What are you going to do?! How are you going to try and even begin to hide it?! You know you can't! How could you be so careless?! You can't raise a child! None of us can!!!" Rachel continued to rant, louder and louder. "Wait, how will this effect SHINee? I asked, praying she didn't know. "I know Kibum is the father, Amber. I'm not that dumb" she said shaking her head. Damn it! "But how?" I asked again. "You lost your ity to him! No offense, but what other guy is there?" she said annoyed. Oh yeah, now I remember. "You can't raise a child, Amber. not in our living situation. I gave up on my addiction for you, and this is how you repay me? she asked AGAIN. All the questions were making my head hurt. And yes, Rachel had given up her cutting for me, Onew, and Jonghyun. (Yes, Jjong knew as well) She's right. She quit her issue, and now I bare this burden on her. I started to cry. My eyes were closed when I felt Rachel hug me. When she let me go, I felt warmth. It was something I was afraid I'd be deprived of from her for the next few months. "You know I'd do anything for you, and you're an older sister to me. I rely on you more than anyone in my life. And you'll always be my role model" As I said this, Rachel started to cry. "I envy your's and Onew's relationship, and you've even accepted me as who I am. Most importantly, I'd live on your advice. So tell me now, if you were in my situation, what would you do with the baby?" I asked sobbing. She sat there in silence, crying. But I knew she was thinking. She sighs "I don't know" These are gunna be the most stressful 9 months of my life

 

Key P.O.V:

 

"Ring Ding Dong"

"Ring Ding Dong"

My phone started to ring in my pocket. It was a text message from Amber. "Meet me at the bottom of your building at the front door so I can talk to you" I read the message aloud. Wondering why, I did what she said(or sent) and headed down to the dark street below, dimly lit by street lights. It was almost 10pm. Jjong was with Onew in the kitchen making cookies. . . Again. Taemin and Minho were in Taemin's room doing only God knows what. When I got to the bottom of the building and into the street, No living human was in sight. I waited for her to drive up or walk up to the building, but she never came. I waited for about 5 minutes when it started to get really cold. I started walking back to the door until Rachel walked from around the building and in front of the door. I knew I was in trouble with her and she meant business, judging by the look on her face. "W-where's Amber?" I asked scared. "Oh, she's not here" she said evily. I felt like I was in a scary movie. I'm too young to die. "I know you're the father, Kibum!! How could you let this happen!?! What were you thinking?!?! Do you have any idea how serious this is?!?! You've just put all of our careers in danger!!! This can't get any worse! Amber's at home, crying!! From now until her due date, I want you to support her in any way you can! For a friend, who has to live with the young woman who's carrying your child, make this promise!!" She screamed. "Is this your time to take your anger out on me?? To yell at me?!" I yelled back. "Yeah! Pretty much" she started to calm down. "Don't give on Amber" She whispered while tears streamed from her crystal green eyes. "I promise" I whisper back. I was leaning in to hug her until- "Yah! Kibum! Where are you?!" I heard Jinki yell from inside the lobby. I turn around and saw Onew pacing around, looking for me. I turned around and Rachel was gone. I could hear her crying from the end of the street. Rachel was my best friend, so when she cried, I cried. I felt a tear fall from my eye. "There you are!" Onew yelled. "What are you doing down here?!" he asked. He didn't know. I turned around slowly to face him. "Onew. . . It's me. . . I'm the father.  ." I cried silently

 

Amber P.O.V:

 

I paced in the kitchen, waiting for Rachel to come back home. Knowing now that I was pregnant, it still didn't make me feel any different, but I knew It was gunna get worse. Rachel opened the door and was home, finally. I felt more calm. "Did you talk to Key??" I asked, in a state of panic. "Yup" she said calmly. "And,,,?" I waited. "I just told him everything you wanted me to tell him" she explained. "Amber, you cannot raise a child" she confessed. "I think...I think you should give the baby up for adoption" she said, sure about her feelings. And whatever she said always worked for me
