“Where are we going?”

“To the doctor.”

It’s weird being in a car with my mom. Since Hunter and I got our licenses, I barely go anywhere with anyone but my best friend.

“I’m not pregnant.”

“I know,” Mom says, focusing on a left-hand turn by the hospital.

“Then why are we going to the doctor?”

“To do what I should have done as soon as you became interested in boys—putting you on the pill.”

She pulls into the medical complex and begins searching for a parking spot.

“Mom, I haven’t even had my period in three months, since I’ve been working out so hard.”

“Oh, look, rock star parking, here we go. I know, honey. But that doesn’t mean you can’t get pregnant.”

She parks the car and turns off the engine, and I’m staring at her like she’s a witch.

“How do you know I haven’t had my period?”

She sighs. “Because I’m the one who supplies this house in tampons, that’s how.”

“Good point.”

She opens her door. “Listen, I don’t know whether you’re telling us the truth about Coach Ford. It doesn’t actually matter. The point is, your body is obviously beyond ready to have sex, and it’s time to take appropriate measures.” She grabs her purse and puts on her lip balm while waiting for me to unbuckle.

“You’re not mad?”

She turns to me. “This is not me giving you permission to pursue your coach, or anyone else. But…who knows what could happen. I want you protected because I love you.”

“OK.”

I go with her, but I save the “I love you, too” for when I stop being mad about my parents reading my diary.
