The next morning Sera woke up and felt like she had a lead weight on her chest. She looked down at her body to realize that Nigel had an arm thrown possessively across her. The events of the night before came rushing back to her, flooding her cheeks with color. They’d had fantastic sex, but what would the morning bring? Would he pass it off as nothing but assuaging each other’s needs? Or would he now want more? She had already told him she didn’t want a man in her life.

Throwing his arm off, she got out of bed. She had things to do. She had to get to work, and she didn’t need this distraction. She had never lived with anybody and she wasn’t comfortable with being around him when she had to tinkle and puke her guts out. She needed to pee-bad. He had to leave.

She pushed on him till he woke up.

“Yes, baby? Does that mean you want more? Just give me a minute to wake up.”

Sera’s brow furrowed in irritation. Yes, it had been good sex, but she wasn’t the kind of woman that wanted it so damn badly she couldn’t wait until the man woke up to get it. God he was so full of himself! “No, you need to leave.”

That comment woke him up.

“Leave? Why?” It took him a little bit to get fully awake and aware in the mornings. So he was a little confused, but after last night, he figured they had gotten something started. “I thought . . . .”

“Nope. I don’t know what you thought and I don’t want to hear it. You need to leave right now. When I come out of the bathroom, I want you gone.”

Sera went to the bathroom, quickly shutting and locking the door behind her. She turned on the shower to let it start getting warm.

Nigel went to the door. He knocked on it. When he heard nothing, he tried the knob and realized she’d locked him out. “Sera, we need to talk.”

Through the door, Sera said, “Look, Nigel, there’s nothing to talk about. I already told you how I wanted my life. Last night was great and all that, but that doesn’t change anything. I want you to leave.”

Nigel didn’t say anything else, and a few minutes later she heard her front door shut. She swallowed hard past emotion that suddenly was making it hard to breathe. This was what she wanted, she assured herself. Men only complicated things. She couldn’t let him wear down her defenses. She was going to have a good day. She wasn’t going to let anything ruin it because her friend Patricia had called the day before to remind her that she was supposed to come to the bar with them for a girls’ night out today, a sort of bachelorette party for their mutual friend Nicole who was finally tying the knot. Of course, she couldn’t drink because she was pregnant, but she planned on dancing her ass off.
