CHAPTER 7! OH YEAH! This is awesome! Ok, this is the chapter where things get super extremely dramatic. At first I was thinking that I should wait a little longer to do this part, but I just can't wait! OK, enjoy my super extremely dramatic chapter part 1 of 2 ( the next one is super dramatic too). BTW, this one even has a title because it's so dramatic! The title comes from the song, if you know it. By Florence and the Machine. I just thought it fit well.

Chapter 7: Sweeter than Heaven and Hotter than Hell

'Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!' Karen ignored the continuous ringing of her cellphone. She was lying on her bed, face down, unable to move after collapsing there. 'Suou calling! Suou calling! Suou calling!' The voice on her phone said. Karen cringed just thinking about it. The last person she wanted to talk to right now was Mikoto. No...that wasn't true. Kyousuke was the last person she wanted to talk to.

All the same, Karen ignored it. "I should just-just stay from Imadori-kun from now on since...since..." Karen couldn't say it. Once again, she allowed her sobs to continue. Just as everything started to blur, she noticed the picture that sat on her desk. She stopped crying, and walked slowly over to it. Karen smiled slightly, as she picked it up to look closer.

She swallowed and wiped the tears from her eyes. "Nevermind Imadori-kun. If-If he wants Mikoto he can be with Mikoto. But I have to get ready for tomorrow! Tsu-chan, and Megu-chan and I are going to the movies with Sarai-kun tomorrow." She said to herself. Karen was already pulling open her drawers looking for the best thing to wear until she found it. "Oh, that's perfect!"

…...

'Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!' Karen pressed the button on her alarm just as she did every single day. She climbed out of her bed, and pulled on her school uniform silently. "I just have to make it through the school day, and then I can go to the theater," She whispered to herself.

Up until lunch, Karen was fine. But then, she ran into Imadori while looking for Tsumugi and Megumi. Karen glared at the ground, refusing to look up into his wonderful eyes. "So...today's your date with Kozue-chan." She said, not even thinking about being polite.

"Yeah, and today's your date with Sarai." He responded dully. "It's not a date," Karen responded immediately, and rather rudely. Imadori was also looking at the floor. "You're right..." Karen's eyes widened. She had expected him to say something rude and thoughtless, but she was wrong. And his next sentence threw her off completely. "Have a good time..."

She hated that she felt somewhat guilty as he walked away from her, his hands in his pockets. Karen now wasn't as enthusiastic when she found Tsumugi and Megumi as she hoped she would've been. "Hey Karen-chan, we have something we need to tell you." Megumi said. 'What now?' Karen thought. "We can't go to the movies with you today. I have a basketball game and Tsumugi has a band practice. But, tell Sarai that we said hi and that he should visit again sometime!"

This only added on to Karen's misery. Now she would have to go see Sarai by herself. And since she was going to be the only one, this really was going to be like a date! Karen laid on her bed thinking about this. "No...I promised myself that I wouldn't go through this with him again. Not again..." Karen whispered to herself. The tears had already started forming but she had wiped them away before she could release them.

"No, this is not a date. You're just going to see your old friend. What's so terrible about that?" She thought this as she pulled on the outfit she had picked out. It was a beautiful pink and blue flowered dress. "This is not a date..."

…...

Karen entered the theater and looked around to see where Sarai was. When she found him standing in one of the corners of the room, he tried to hug Karen, but didn't succeed because Karen shied away from him. 'I won't let it happen again," She thought.

Karen stood in the empty classroom of the Yagami Junior High School waiting for the boy who had put the love letter in her locker. "I wonder if I know him," She wondered out loud. Just then, to her surprise, Kizutso Sarai walked in. "Huh? Sarai-kun? What are you doing here?" Karen's heart had skipped a beat as he had walked in. "Uh...Hey Ichijou." He said nervously.

Karen backed up as he came near her, soon feeling the wall against her back. "Uh, we've been best friends for a long time...haven't we Ichijou?" He started, finally looking her in the eyes. Karen felt like they were battling, to see who would drop their gaze first.

"Y-Yes...we have..." She said shyly. Karen's heart started beating faster and faster with each step he took towards her until his face was very close to hers. "Karen...would you be my girlfriend...?" Karen looked wide-eyed into his as his face moved even closer until their lips weren't even a full inch apart. "Yes...I will Sarai." Karen murmured this, before their lips finally met, and it felt to Karen like a dream. But...dreams always end eventually...

...

Sarai patted Karen's back nervously as she threw up once again into the wastepaper basket beside her hospital bed. "Karen, you should go to sleep. Don't push yourself too hard..." He whispered. He had just stopped her from trying to get up. "But...I need...to get to school..." She murmured, as she laid her head back down on her pillow and closed her eyes.

"Mr. Kisutso? May I speak with you out in the hall?" Karen's doctor poked her head in and then went back outside. Sarai walked out and his face fell as the doctor talked to him. "Uh, Mr. Kizutso...you see the thing is, that...all of Karen's symptoms are signs of...well...pregnancy..." Sarai's eyes widened and he thought that she might be joking.

"Wait...w-what? That-That's impossible, that would mean that Karen and I would've had to..." He didn't finish his sentence. "But...But nothing like that ever happened! We're only in 9th grade!" He said, a bit louder than he had meant. He heard Karen turn over in the hospital room.

"Mr. Kizutso, you probably just don't remember. It's perfectly normal to-" "DON'T even FINISH that..." Sarai said, looking at the floor. This was impossible. What would Karen say when it came time to tell her? She would hate him forever! "Uh...Mr. Kizutso? I may be wrong though. You should probably have her tested." The doctor said.

Sarai's head snapped up. "Wait, you mean there's a chance that Karen isn't pregnant?" The doctor nodded. "Then, yes...test Karen." This was when the doctor looked away from him. "Well Mr. Kizutso unfortunately Karen is too sick to do the test now. We'll probably have to wait a few weeks until she's a bit better.

Sarai gaped at her. "Every week we wait there could be a-" He lowered his voice. "A 'child' growing inside of Karen. We can't wait!" The doctor's face turned a bit more serious. "I'm sorry Mr. Kizutso, but I'm not allowed," Sarai opened his mouth to argue, but knew there was no point. He turned his head and saw sweet innocent Karen sleeping away in her bed, Having no idea that at that very moment a baby might be forming inside her.

"Alright, thank you..." Sarai walked back into Karen's room and sat down on her bed slowly. He could have just ruined Karen's life forever...
