"This can't be happening!" I said as I sat in a doctors office in a town fifty-three miles out of Port Charles.
"Well it is, and I take it by your reaction that this wasn't planned." Dr. Ford said as she sat across from Dillon and I at her desk.
"Not to sound rude Dr. Ford, but I am only nineteen and Georgie is only seventeen, of course this wasn't planned." Dillon said with an small smile.
"No problem, I'll give you two a few minutes to discuse this and then I will be back with more information." She said as she stood up and walked out of the tiny office closing the door quietly behind her.
"Dillon how could this happen? How can I be pregnant?" I asked as I looked at him, scared of what this meant.
"Umm...do you really want me to explain it to you or are you just thinking out loud?" He asked.
"You know what I mean. You told me you used protection." I said as I glared at him. I knew it was both of our faults but I really just wanted to yell at someone and Dillon just happened to be the only one in the room at the moment.
"Ok, first of all I think you would know if I used protection, and second you told me you were on birth control?" He said, his voice growing louder with every word.
"I am." I said defiantly.
"Well then I don't know what to tell you. Look Georgie, this is happening whether we are ready for this or not." Dillon said as he sat back down in his chair and grabbed my hands.
"What am I going to tell Mac? Oh God, what am I going to tell my mom?" I said as I suddenly felt very sick to my stomach. "We are going to have to leave Port Charles, I can't hide this forever. I can only go so long before I start showing."
"Listen, I'll go right up to Mac as soon as we get back to PC and tell him. But I am not going to apologize for us sleeping together. I'm not running from this, and you know deep down you don't want to either. We are just going to have to face it, we are going to have a baby." Dillon said in a low whisper as he rested his forhead against mine. Just then the Dr. Ford came back in.
"Is everything ok?" She asked sitting back down in her chair and folding her hands on top of her desk.
"As good as they are going to get." Dillon said as he laced his fingers with mine.
"I have one question." I said as Dr. Ford looked at me and nodded. "I have been taking birth control for about ten months now and Dillon and I used protection. How could this have happened?"
"It is very good that you used protection but condoms, or whatever type of protection you used isn't 100 percent affective. People get pregnant using condoms all the time. Is that what you used, a condom?" She asked as Dillon and I both nodded. "Was it brand new, or have you had it for a while?"
"I haven't had it too long, and I always keep it with me." Dillon said
"That is where that method went wrong. You should always use a brand new condom. Carrying one around with you wears the lining and makes tears occur more often. And Georgie, do you take your pill every day?" She asked turning her attention from Dillon to me.
"Yes." I said
"Everyday, you don't occasionally forget?" She asked.
"Well I did a few times but not when we slept together." I said looking from her to Dillon and then back to her.
"When you miss or skip a pill it takes a while for your body to catch back up, leaving you defenseless so to say."
