A Boys Story Chapter 3

The school day seemed to last forever as I waited for it to end so I could get to my doctor's appointment. Jason was taking me to my appointment to see why I could not stop puking. The school day finally ended and we headed to see the doctor. We waited for 45 minutes before we were called back to the examining room. The doctor took my blood and went to have it tested. Jason sat by my side as we waited for the doctor to come back. "What do you think could be wrong with me Jason? Why am I puking so much?"

"I don't know, maybe you got the flu or something." I sat up and he began to rub my back.

"I don't know, don't people get a fever when they have the flu? All I have is the puking. Nothing else matches up." I ran a hand through my hair. The doctor returned a few minutes later with a file in his hands. "Well, what is wrong with me?"

"Well, Damien. It seems you are pregnant. If we are right you are about 2 ½ months along." I was shocked. "How can I be pregnant? I am a boy, boys don't get pregnant." Jason was rubbing my back.

"We have no idea how it happened, but you are two months pregnant. I can suggest a doctor for you to go to. They specialize in weird pregnancies." He wrote down a phone number and handed it to me. "Call that number when you get the chance and make and appointment right away. For now I am going to give you some vitamins you need to take that will help your baby." He left and returned a few minutes later with the vitamins. "Take these once a day."

I just nodded and watched him leave. After he closed the door, I looked at Jason. "How can I be preg…?" That was when it hit me, two and a half months ago that man raped me in the alley. "No. no it can't be."

"What can't be, Damien look at me. What is it?" Jason shook me gently to get my attention.

"Jason, we met 2 ½ months ago in the alley by your house." I watched his face contort as he tried to figure out what I meant, his face turned blank. "That night is when I got pregnant. My baby is created because I was raped. How am I going to tell my parents?" I felt like I was going to puke again, Jason understood immediately and led me to the bathroom. I puked up my lunch and washed my mouth out with water. Jason led me to his car and we drove away in utter silence.

We got half way to my house when Jason spoke. "Damien? Are you ok? I may not know what you are going through, but I do know that it can't be easy. If I was in your position I don't know what I would do, but since I'm not I can say that I am here for you should you ever need me. I don't want you to go through this alone. I am going to give you time before you have to answer my question, but I was wondering if you would move in with me." I looked at Jason with remorse; he really cared for me.

"Jason, I would love to, but what about my family? I can't just leave my little sister; she means everything to me. I know that she would be very upset if I left. I want to live with them for a little longer first, if that is ok." I looked over at him again and placed my hand on his leg.

I smiled as he placed his hand over mine; he looked at me with a tear in his eye. "That is perfectly fine. I don't have a little brother or sister that relies on me like Jennifer does with you. I am an only child. I wish I had what you have." He pulled the car into my driveway. "You are very lucky Damien." He looked at me and smiled. He leaned across the seats and kissed me again and I kissed him back.

"Jason, you will have what I have, if you love me then you're a part of my family. You do have a little sister. And she is watching us from her bedroom window." I smiled and looked at her. "Do you want to come in; mom should have dinner ready soon."

He just shook his head and smiled at me. "No, you need this time with your family. And your parents are still adjusting to the fact that we are together. Maybe next time ok?" I nodded and kissed him again before getting out of the car. I walked to the door and watched him leave.

I had just opened the door when Jen ran into my arms. She hugged me and kissed my cheek. "Where have you been all day? I was worried."

"Sorry Jen, Jason and I had to do something at the library. We have a project due in a few days." Luckily, for me that was somewhat true, we do have a project due, but we had finished it a week ago.  There was no way I could tell me little sister that I had a doctors appointment and that I was pregnant. Luckily, I had Jason to help me. The hard thing was going to be a pregnant male in my school. It was April. When the school year ended, I was going to be four months pregnant. Jason would be graduating this year, I would go back to my last year at high school as a seven-month pregnant man, and I had no idea how I was going to juggle a baby and school.

Jen looked up at me like I was nuts. "Are you ok Damien? You spaced out."

"I am fine Jen. Go play a video game or something ok?" She ran away smiling. The night progressed faster than I thought. When I looked at my clock, I was surprised to notice it was already 9:00. I got changed for bed and lay on the bed with my hand over my flat stomach. I fell asleep thinking about my baby.
