"Fuck! This is not happening, this can't be happening". Effy keeps repeating this while pacing around Freddie's bathroom, she actually closes her eyes, hoping that when she'll open them there will be a minus sign on the stick replacing the current plus one. She opens her eyes but nothing is changed, she curses herself and Freddie for not be careful enough, for their eagerness to make love and now she is in this big mess, well actually they are if she ever decides to tell him. She has to get out of there, she's been long enough and she doesn't want to make Karen suspicious. She gets out and she makes a quick deviation before heading out. She enters into Freddie's room, it all looks like the last time she was here when she has come to visit him after she got out of the clinic the first time. The same day she got herself in this huge mess. She wanders around a little, observing several photos: almost all are of Freds and his mom and some are of them too. She knows how close Freddie and his mother were but she probably doesn't still realize how hard all this must have been for Freddie, he had to go through all the pain and craziness twice, first with his mum then with her. He lost once and he had come close to lose again. She takes one last look at the pictures and she gets out of the house.

She walks home slowly, she has no rush to get there. She wants to think about this but another part of her just wants to forget this is real and that it won't go away no matter how hard she wants it to. Her phone buzzes, it's Panda but she's not in the mood to deal with her so she simply reject the call. Not a minute goes by and her phones rings again. This time is Katie, she's not answering her either, then it's Naomi's turn but she still doesn't pick up, Cook tries to call too but she has had enough and she simply shuts her phone down. She has enough issues without having to deal with all her friends. She finally arrives home and craws into bed holding Freddie's shirt as a blanket, her safe blanket, she closes her eyes and tries not to think.

Days go by and she follows the same routine. She gets up, barely eats anything, just what she needs to keep herself up, goes to the hospital and tries unsuccessfully to see Freddie. Afterwards she stops by his house to hang out a little in his room. She feels safe there, it's like being with Freddie, then she finally comes home and crawls into her bed. It's been almost a week of this patter when one morning something changes, the curtains in her room are suddenly opened and the light hits her and wakes her up. She swears "What the fuck is going on?" Turning around she can only see a bunch of people, she is still half asleep but she can clearly identify who says "This has to stop now. Get your ass out of that bed, we're taking you out", it's Katie. Effy wonders what on earth Katie is doing at her place and who's with her. She rubs her eyes and now she can see clearly that the whole gang is here, she wishes they would go back to where they came from and let her sleep more but they're not giving up. Naomi is pulling her out of bed, helping her to stand steady while Panda brings her some breakfast. "Pandapops is worried Effy, you have to eat, I've made poptarts for you" she says while offering her food. She could fight it, bitch about it and then eventually give up or she could give in just now and save herself and the others a lot of fuss, so she eats.

After she finishes breakfast the guys step out to let her put some clothes on, while dressing she can't help but asking with a little panic in her voice "Why are you all here? Why today? Is something wrong with Freddie?" Emily answers her "No, Effy. Freddie is still sleeping and he's still stable. Karen called Cook yesterday, she told him what you do every day and she is concerned for you. Cook called Naomi and we called everyone else, so we're here to help keep your mind off". She's dressed now and they're heading out of the room to catch up with the boys when she says "You know it's useless right? Nothing can take my mind off the shits in my life". She doesn't get any reply but Panda hugs her, she can't look at the gang without noticing how incomplete they are without Freds. Then she notice something else that upsets her, JJ is holding a baby. It's like the universe is getting revenge on her and laughing about it, first her boyfriend is almost killed, then she finds out that she's pregnant and now a baby is thrown in her face, she can't keep it inside. "JJ, what are you doing with that thing? Who is he?" JJ is a little taken aback by her harsh tone but he manages to reply excited "Effy meet Albert, this is Lara's son, she's my girlfriend. I forgot you haven't meet her yet, well I can introduce her to you when I'll present her to Freds". Effy shakes her head, she's not crazy, they are. They act like everything is freaking normal when it's all falling apart. Freddie is alone in an hospital room fighting for his life, she's knocked up and she has no clue of what she should do and they talk about stuff as girlfriends and going out. She's about to send them all to hell when her phone rings, it's Karen. She quickly gets the call "Effy, I think you should get to the hospital soon" is all she can hear before starting to sob.
