Chapter 20
I gather up our clothes so we can make our way back to the bedroom. “What about the fire?”
“It’ll go out,” he assures me. “You don’t worry about sparks singeing the carpet or setting us all on fire? That thing is a monster.”
“Nope, never gave it a thought actually.”
“What about your staff? You didn’t seem too worried about anyone interrupting us this time.”
“I didn’t see any concern on your face either.”
“It crossed my mind.” Yea like for one second.
“You don’t have to worry about us being interrupted ever again, it’s been taken care of,” he says, with a coolness that makes me cringe inside for Mr. Black. I snuggle down under the comforter next to Marcus after I’ve helped arrange him in a nest of pillows his leg elevated with his body propped to the side so that he’s facing me. My content mood pops like a soap bubble, every muscle in my body stiffening when I realize that we didn’t use a condom. “Oh my God …I’m not on the pill and we didn’t use protection!”
“I was wondering when you were going to realize that.”
“How can you be so calm, shit, I’ve never had to worry about birth control.”
“And you still don't; I can not have children Imani. I have used condoms with all of the other women I have been with; it just didn’t seem necessary with you. Given your history I knew you were clean.”
“You…. can’t have kids?”
“No.” I don’t know why this is such a shock, it’s not like we were getting married or anything, and I never planned on having children anyway…but I never planned on meeting someone who made me feel like Marcus either. Relaxing with the knowledge that there is no pregnancy scare, I squirm closer to Marcus’s warm, naked body, but my mind wanders to his comment all the other women. A Russian proverb I learned about in high school comes to mind- love and jealousy are sisters. Do I love Marcus, because I am absolutely jealous? I wonder how many there have been- were they like me, has he ever been in a serious relationship? And why can’t he have children? I need to quit torturing myself with questions like this. Of course he’s been with a lot of women, he’s gorgeous and rich, I don’t have to like it though.
“You ok?” He asks.
“Yea…yea, just a lot to take in I guess,” I answer quietly; a long silence follows and I almost think he’s gone to sleep when he speaks again.
“Do you? Want kids I mean?” he asks
“I never planned on having children no…. I’ve never been able to allow a man close enough to even consider it really. If you were able to have them would you?” I ask.
“No, I would undoubtedly fuck them up.” I prop myself up on my elbow to see him better and sigh. “I cant’ argue with you on that because I haven’t know you long. But from my limited experience I think you would make a great father Marcus, you’re disciplined, driven, loving and generous.
