Hey,
I know its a really scary thing thinking you could be pregnant, trust me, I went through that recently. The important thing to do is to not stress yourself out because if you get all stressed out that can actually put your period off and if you skip a period you might think its because your pregnant when really you could just be stressed.
I duno where you are from and what you guys have where you live but in Australia we have what we call 'the morning after pill', also known as 'emergency contreception'. Basicialy its two pills you take one as soon as you can after unprotected sex and the 2nd pill 12 hours after your first one. The sooner you take your first one after sex the better! They reconmend you take it within the first 12 hours to get the best chance of it working but as long as you take it no latter then 72hours (3 days) after unprotected sex it can still work. However the longer you leave it, the chance of it working decreases. Basically all the pills do is the prevent fertilisation and possible pregnancy.
Basicaly to get the morning after pill, all you have to do is either:
a) go to your doctor and they will prescribe you some
b) go to your local chemist, ask at the counter for it, then the phramist will ask you a few questions to make sure its ok for you to take it. Its all confidential so dont worry. They just ask when did you last after un protected sex (so they can work out how well it will work), when you last period was, if you have any medical problems etc.
But remember, the morning after pill shoudlnt be used on a regular basis. Its meant for emergencies oonly (like if the condom you used broke) and I would hope that after this experience of yours you will look into some other ways of protecting yourself better, like going on the pill for example and ALWAYS using a condom.

Also those home pregnancy tests you buy from the shops aren't that reliable. If you want a 100% accurate answer if you are pregnant or not and really quickly then go see your doctor. They do more accurate tests and I think they can do them as soon as you want, where as with the home pregnancy tests you usualy have to wait like 7 days after having sex or until the date of your expected period.
goodluck and I hope you aren't pregnant.

Four times in one day! Pretty impressive.
Anyhow, enough with the jokes. You should know better than this! You used a condom the first two times, what happened?!?
You CAN get Plan B from Planned Parenthood if you have one around... look in the phone book or call information to get a hold of them. Usually you can just walk in and pick up Plan B.
As for the Pregnancy, you won't be able to tell from a test quite yet if you're pregnant. Wait until you've missed your period before jumping to any conclusions.
Next time ALWAYS use protection. NO EXCUSES. If you continue to have sex this way, you definitely will get pregnant eventually. Pregnancy happens, it really does.
Alright, sweetness. Calm down, call Planned Parenthood to see about Plan B.
