*LUXE*

Not understanding the bash, Ian looked in the mirror and saw it. Karen’s pink lipstick.

“Shit,” he mumbled, knowing it happened when he had sex with her before going to the condo.

After throwing the shirt into the hamper, he walked into the bedroom where Lilith was in the bed, under the covers, rolled onto her side and ready for sleep.

“Lily.”

“Hmm?” she mumbled without looking at him.

“I didn’t know it was there.”

“God, I fucking hope not!” she scoffed and tugged the covers up to her neck.

“Baby.” He climbed into the bed, putting his arm around her.

“Please tell me you’re using protection with her, Ian. An STD is unforgivable. At least I can terminate a pregnancy, but most STD’s are for life.”

It stung, it was a low blow to compare the pregnancy to an STD; like it was solely his fault she ended up pregnant, but she could forgive him because at least it wasn’t an STD.

“I do use protection with her and I expect you to use protection with other people.”

“Whenever that may happen, I will,” she snapped, trying to shrug him off. The thing that angered her most was he said he was taking Karen home, hitting the gym, then bringing his things to the condo, he didn’t mention having a quick romp.

Pulling at her to face him, he said, “Lily, I love you. You’re who matters most to me.”

“You’re pathetic,” she snarled, sliding out of the bed with her pillow; the door slammed behind her.

Guilt for her words burned in her gut. She chose to accept Karen, but rubbing his girlfriend in her face was not acceptable. Lilith knew it wasn’t an intentional flaunt, but nonetheless, that’s what it felt like.

While she calmed down on the couch, he stayed tucked away in the bedroom, feeling every bit shitty for the lipstick.

“Why are you calling me so much lately?” Ashley answered his phone call. “I don’t even know why I answer. You never answer my calls.”

“Were you with Lily all day today?”

“Yeah, why? She’s not at home?”

“Yeah, she’s home. I was just wondering if she was with you all day.”

“Oh, like you’re wondering who she may have been out fucking?” Ashley rolled her eyes. “Soon Shaun. He’s coming at the end of the month so you better plan a little getaway with your fat bitch of a girlfriend.”

“Ashley, come on. I didn’t call for you to stupidly insult me.”

“I’m not insulting you, I’m insulting thunder thighs—”

“All right,” Ian huffed, about to hang up.

“Wait! Ian?”

“What?”

Her tone changed from malicious to compassionate. “Did she tell you she made the appointment?”

Pinching the bridge of his nose and closing his eyes tightly, he replied, “Yeah. Tuesday.”

“Do you even want this?” she whispered as if Lilith could hear her.

“It doesn’t matter, it’s what she wants.”

“It does matter. You can try and talk her out of it. You can refuse to pay for it or something. Tell her you’ll take the baby when it’s born. I just don’t think she’s giving this enough thought. I know it’s killing her, but I think deep down she really wants this baby.
