As they drove back to the hotel, Terri leaned in the seat inside, as she looked out the window, remembered that night that it had happened between her and Erik. Tears started going down her face, ad she realized that getting over him wasn't going to be or happen at all. She then realized that they hadn't used protection for the 2nd and 4th time they were doing it. "Oh god, I can't believe that happened." she said, getting confused looks from everyone. She then accidently blurted out that she was pregnant with Erik's baby, making Mana swerve off the road. She yelled that son of a bitch is going to die, after she yelled it a second time, Terri realized her mistake and began trying to calm everyone down. Chris and Mana's raving was really starting to scare her. She couldn't talk to them as they sped to Erik's house. Mana managed to look at her friend see that she was upset and having trouble breathing.
Terri managed to convince everyone that it was all a joke. Mana and Chris were the hardest to convince. Finally after 4 hours of arguing, everyone had calmed down and been convinced that she was okay and not having a baby. Soon, everybody fell asleep in the car. Another 4 hours later, Erik came out to go for a walk. He forgot his blue jacket ( from the first episode of so weird ) and went back in to get it.
Coming out , he noticed a car sitting outside his house and some people ( bout 12 or 13 he guess ) and slowly began to walk towards it. He recognized MANA ( now in the middle of the front seat with Chris on the driver's side ) and remembered what she had said. He turned to run, but stopped and looked closer to see that everyone was sleeping ( Britney was to the right of Mana on the passenger side ). He sighed and peered into the car ( a big sea-green van with black and red flames across the sides, Mana's car of course. 'nice paint job' he thought to himself. he touched the car to see if there was an alarm, and was, relieved when there wasn't one ) everyone was sound asleep, some even snoring. He chuckled softly as he also touched his cast ( mana had shattered his arm. he was getting the cast off in 6 months or 7 he couldn't remember ) and found himself thinking of Terri as he circled the van. He found her fast asleep in the very back ( she had moved there so she could have some peace and sleep peacefully ). He brushed his hair back with hand as tears ran down his face ( memories flashed in his mind at how happy he were before things were horribly messed by Ashley ).
Quietly, he opened the glass window covering the back. An alarm went off. He closed it quickly as everyone screamed and woke up. Still in a daze, all of them fell back to sleep except for Mana, Chris, Britney, and JC , who got out to check the back alarm. Erik knew he couldn't let Mana see him so he quickly opened the back and jumped in and landed beside Terri. He got up to shut the back but had to duck down 'cause Mana and the other 3 had finally made it back there. He managed to hide himself under a bundle of things as JC and Chris lifted Mana up so she could peer inside. He realized his feet could seen and quickly slid then under his chest and covered himself up seconds before Mana's head popped up over the top. He breathed a sigh of relief as the back was shut and the 4 climbed back into their spots in the van.
Erik breathed quietly and the others woke up , remembering where they were. Mana yawned as Chris took the wheel for the 1 hour drive back to the hotel. Erik silently got out from under the bundle to find Terri and him locking eyes.
