word.
Happened first when I was 18 and as recently as 2 months ago. Never panned out - it's always been stress. But! The very first step is to get her tested asap. There's really no point in getting all worked up until you know there's actually something happening and even then, the steps are pretty clear, ya know? You make the decision, you act on it... whatever the right decision is for the two of you.
But for now, try not to freak out. She's probably more freaked than you could ever be - there's is a possibility that there is a child inside her and she can't escape that if it's true. Don't forget, in dealing with her through this, that that's the place she'll be coming from. She's going to experience it differently than you will, guaranteed. Be gentle with her, more understanding than usual, helpful and... steady. If you're freaked out, talk to people here about it, talk to your friends, talk to your family, but try not to let her see much of it. Concern is good, freaked isn't. And take it one step at a time. Get the tests for her... be involved. It'll all work out.
good luck, bro
